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!
Maybe it is a bit easier this year.
Hard to believe I'm better at it, lol.
Missed one and the hardest one I skipped.
Today was pretty easy too.
Had my list and went backwards and had a near match that almost fooled me. Then of course it was the first one on the list. Why is it something is always in the last place you look for it? Because you stopped looking when you found it.
Cheers
Listen to the play.
Lyrically a mess but Jer has some shinning moments on this version
naming a song and including winterland sort of narrows it down. doesn't it
Found it quickly thanks to what I assume to be an "unintentional" clue (and I'll just leave it at that), but I had it fairly nailed down even before I noticed that.
