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!
Casey Jones... I knew it was a 70s show but I couldn't find all of the shows on Relisten or Archive. I went to that show this morning, because I had a question mark next to that date. Setlist had it listed as played that night but achieve and Relisten don't have it on their setlist. I am confused. For those of you that found it. How did you do it?
I have to totally agree with you on what you stated. Finally, Brents voice and crystal clear.
Love and Respect to all!
figured it was 1970
figured it was before June 14th
figured it would be findable through Archive/Relisten
figured wrong
who'd a figured that?
Pretty quick find.
Fifteen years in, and nine days this year, and we still see folks posting their answer in the comments. Sheesh...
Sure did Love Brent’s soulful voice.
If I had my way, I’d listen to Brent & Jerry all day.
There are things & you can replace
And others you cannot.
Never forget the love we bring.
Thanks David.
And thanks to the most generous unselfish band for allowing fans to enjoy your live performances all these years.
Very Grateful!
