    "When we began discussing audio projects to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead back in 2012, we knew we wanted to do something completely unprecedented. We could think of nothing more exciting or ambitious than a career-spanning overview of the band's live legacy focused on what best tells the story: complete concerts. Our first criterion was the very best live music to represent any given year in the band’s history. We wanted to make sure that there were not only the tent-pole shows that fans have been demanding for decades but also ones that are slightly more under the radar, but equally excellent. For those who listen to the entire box straight through, chronologically, the narrative of the Grateful Dead's live legacy will be seen as second to none in the pantheon of music history." - David Lemieux

    We are more than pleased to announce the Grateful Dead's most ambitious release ever: 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN. Available as both an 80-disc boxed set and a custom lightning-bolt USB drive, the collection includes 30 unreleased live shows, one for each year the band was together from 1966 to 1995, along with one track from their earliest recording sessions in 1965. Packed with over 73 hours of music, both the boxed set and the USB drive will be individually numbered limited editions.

    The 80-disc boxed set is individually numbered and limited to 6,500 copies, a nod to the band’s formation in 1965. Along with the CDs, it also includes a gold-colored 7-inch vinyl single which bookends the band’s career. The A-side is “Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks)” from the band’s earliest recording session in 1965 with the B-side of the last song the band ever performed together live, “Box Of Rain” recorded during their final encore at Soldier Field in Chicago on July 9, 1995.

    The box also comes with a 288-page book that features an extensive, career-spanning essay written by Nick Meriwether, who oversees the Dead archives at the University of California, Santa Cruz, along with special remembrances of the band submitted by fans. Also included is a scroll that offers a visual representation of how the band’s live repertoire has evolved through the years.

    The USB drive version* will be shaped like a gold lightning bolt with the Grateful Dead 50th anniversary logo engraved on the side. The drive includes all of the music from the collection in both FLAC (96/24) and MP3 formats and is an individually numbered limited edition of 1,000 copies. Digital version of the book also included on USB.

    Shows will NOT be sold individually on CD. This release is sure to sell out quickly so pre-order your copy today and stick around as we will be revealing a mighty fine selection of music, art, and much, much more right here.

    (Looking for a smaller 50th Anniversary commemorative keepsake? September 18th will see the release of a four-CD version of the collection titled 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN: THE DEFINITIVE LIVE STORY 1965-1995. More on that here.)

    ROLLINGSTONE.COM SONG PREMIERE AND EXCLUSIVE DAVID LEMIEUX INTERVIEW
    Head on over to Rollingstone.com for the very first listen of "Morning Dew" 9/18/87 Madison Square Garden, David Fricke's exclusive interview with archivist David Lemieux, and the reveal of 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN's '69 and '84 shows.

    *Helpful hints for using your USB:

    Running the 30 Trips Player / Reader program:
    On Windows – Navigate to the USB drive and double click the PCStart.exe file to run.
    On MacOS – Open the GD 30 Trips drive, and double click the MacStart to run.

    Viewing the digital book:
    You can either view it within the program that comes on the drive, or by opening the PDF directly.

    To view the PDF, open the PDF folder on the drive and the USB_bk_spreads_08-31 file within. Selecting the option within your PDF reading application to view as a “single page” might be preferable to viewing as a continuous document.

    Importing music into iTunes and other library programs:
    When you import the songs from the USB into your library, the information used to identify the track will likely leave them sorted incorrectly. Please use the song list found here to re-number the songs for each show so that they playback in the correct order.

    Mr. Dc, 6/24/70 would be insane, indeed...I think one of the Jack Straws brought that one to my attention awhile back. Another that also features Attics, kind of in the future Stella Blue slot, is: https://archive.org/details/gd70-07-10.aud.cotsman.17351.sbeok.shnf Would love to hear a great recording of this. Kind of sounds like it's through the bathroom wall, but the performance is sweet and actually I love the ambience. Clearly, people even then got really excited for the "old" stuff: Minglewood, Alligator, Cryptical, and Cosmic Charlie. Some posters on the Archive even believe this is actually the early show for 6/24!

    Would be insane to have this released, doubt its in the vault though. This has always been a show I consider when thinking about time travel haha. Here's the best source I can find. That Attics makes me tear up everytime, I am really sick right now, no end in sight. Amazing what this band can do, really a shining light in dark times. https://archive.org/details/gd1970-06-24.aud.lee.5339.sbeok.shnf

    dantian - Like Neil says, "it's all the same song", except it's not really, but you get my drift. Alot of the music we are all talking about here flows from the same well. Thanks for the tip on Van Ronk's record - I looked it up and it has some great songs on it, also done by others discussed here. I may grab it for my collection. Collective consciousness indeed. davestrang - if you want to explore some of the Reverend's music, I recommend listening to Harlem Street Singer, Children of Zion and Live at Newport; you'll recognize many of the songs. Also, Ragtime Guitar is an excellent recording of his instrumental pieces. These are just a few of the many recordings out there, including Demons & Angels, a fine overview and compilation put together by Stefan Grossman.

    OK Antonjo!My ticket stub collection shows that I attended that Spectrum show after the 3 Hampton shows, and I might as well have "missed" that show, too, whatwith the already present overwhelmedness! But I may have to revisit the archive (and my cassette) of that philly 3-24-86 and see what I missed! Oh, and by the way, I was a college kid at the time, going to school in New Hampshire!

    Wish I hadn't listened. Wish they'd never offered it. I have self control issues. I think I just watered down my 30 Trips experience. Baahhhh.

    Spectrum 2nd night may've eclipsed any single one of the Hampton shows, though. It's to my lasting regret I turned down a ticket to recover from Hampton. What kind of college kid does that?? (Ok, I'll plead that I didn't wanna miss yet another day of classes.) The 2nd Box of Rain ~ Phil sings it even better ~ and the final Lost Sailor, along with Alabama, High Time, Dew, and a Midnight Hour encore. Did I mention I still regret passing on that one?

    Hampton 86
    Hoopsie, Yes, Hampton '86 would've been perfect for a 4-disc Road Trips. All three nights featured some great stuff, with a few hiccups: messy Truckin' the first night, the awful Althea 2nd night, and lyrically-challenged Uncle John's on the 3rd. But some warts become beauty marks: post-Terrapin confusion/tempers onstage resulted in a really cool jam with only Jerry & the drummers left onstage...I can still see him facing his amp, immersed in sonic exploration. But for Althea, the 2nd night -- Box of Rain night -- is uniformly high caliber, if short. Friend of the Devil is as fine as any version anywhere (yes, I just said that). And the second set features a fun Iko with Bobby guesting a verse, and one of the hottest Estimateds I've heard to this day--by the time Bobby finishes screaming, the crowd is shouting...then all at once quiets as Jerry wahs everyone into the journey that will eventually arrive at Eyes. There's a Brent 'n drummers jam before space, and Wharf Rat goes to a really unique place after the "I'm sure she's been true to you" line; one of those moments of spontaneous composition that sounds planned but wasn't. (Jerry posed for my friend Dean during that Wharf Rat, also ; ) Some sweet Jerry ballads during this run -- Visions, Wharf Rat, Stella Blue -- and Bob climbed up on the amps during Sugar Mag, which says something about the energy. Some other highlights are a smokin' Cold Rain, hot ChinaCat jam, and especially Playin' 1st night, which reaches deep Space even before drums; Dupree's and a monster Bird Song 3rd night, and the battle to play or not to play the Lazy Lightning reprise out of Supplication -- Phil & Jerry have almost pulled it off when Bob forcefully starts singing Let It Grow before they've even launched into it, just to make his point. They relent, and an orange & green Let It Grow follows.... (Those were one of the stage light combos on that song, and the one I've always thought best captures its color.) All this and a Brent "Hey, Little Red Rooster..." verse, too....

This offering from 30 Trips is a classic Bruce/Vinnie show! The whole fall 1990 tour really. For a band who just hired two new players this tour has some mighty fine moments. New York to the UK and more! Good stuff!
