30 Days of Dead
It's a Dead Head's most wonderful time of the year! Welcome to another 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, one for every day of the month, selected by archivist and producer David Lemieux. The tracks are yours, 100% free gua-ran-teed, but the real fun is taking part in the challenge for the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.
Those of you who know what to do, feel free to skip right on ahead. For those of you who need a refresher, here's the drill:
You know your Ables from your Bakers from your C's, but can your finely tuned ears differentiate the cosmic "comeback" tour from a spacey 70s show? Each day we'll post a song from one of the Dead's coveted shows. Will it be from that magical night at Madison Square Garden in '93 or from way back when they were just starting to warm it up at Winterland? Is that Pigpen's harmonica we hear? Brent on keys? If you think you know, lob your answer in and you just might find yourself taking home our daily prize of a 2025 Grateful Dead wall calendar or the grand prize – a copy of limited, numbered, FRIEND OF THE DEVILS: APRIL '78 boxed set!
Geez. There are so many from this era, and many that are missing from the internet. And so many bad audience recordings. The place of the most promising clue gets drowned out by the audience, even on some of the board recordings. Has anyone found it?
More like Casey Jonesing lol my goodness what a search…

Never trust a prankster!
I think the winner had the correct answer and that a mistake was made in cut and pasting the venue, for the web results. No big deal a misprint per se
Thanks again for the daily dose but why were the first four days WAV files and the subsequent ones mp3?
I've been in despair for the last few days, but while listening to 11/08/70 this morning, I noticed that the cloud had lifted. All thanks to "Ripple."
Give it a try if you're feeling low.
