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!
Jump glitch during Wharf Rat - missing a small segment there.
Otherwise a great recording and a super post!
it seems to jump when JG sing 'for some other f*ckers crime' it is missing? is it just me?
Great selection from DL and the team for today. Thought this might be a struggle but surprisingly simpler than originally thought. Got it with first on my shortlist of options. Quite a few aural clues to help.
Good luck everyone!
If that doesn't wake you up, nothing will! There are a lot of these over the years, but some pretty obvious clues make it fairly easy to find, although still tricky!
...bombing us into this one! I could trip thru that jam all night long. And TOO is cookin'!
Definitely appreciating the deep bows to Phil all thru these 30 Days. Thank you, Dave!
This one, also an easy find. LOTS of helpful clues throughout the piece. Happy search to yuhs.
