30 Days of Dead
Art by BluesforSallah.
As the young folks like to say, it’s time to flex your Grateful Dead knowledge and take home a high-quality MP3 download every day in November while you are at it. 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, selected by Dead archivist and producer David Lemieux? Yes, please! The tracks are yours, no strings attached, but we hope you’ll stick around for the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.
If you don’t know what we’re on about, here’s the deal:
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 70's show? Each day we'll post a free download 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? Step right up and try your hand all November long and win prizes to boot.
This year’s GRAND PRIZE will be a copy of the numbered, limited-edition boxed set LISTEN TO THE RIVER: ST. LOUIS '71 '72 '73. Daily winners will take home a 2022 Grateful Dead Calendar.
Today's Song
Hint:
A huge classic, plus two newer songs released just 10 days earlier

El Paso, TX, County Coliseum
"Weather Report Suite" was a rare song in the Dead's career that debuted live after it had been recorded and mixed for the studio album on which it would appear (Wake Of The Flood). They played the entire suite from September 1973 to October 1974, and then dropped the first two parts of the suite when they returned to the road in 1976

I love 30 Days of Dead and each November I "wake up to find out" what little nuggets Dave has dug out for us. "If your cup is full may it be again" is my mantra for November.
Thanks to the boys for continuing to share their music each November. Thanks to Dave for digging deep and pulling out some gems for us to enjoy all year long. Until we meet again in November 2022..."I want to thank you, for a real good time" :-)
This was pretty much a gimme.
Thanks for the really fun contest Dave!
And thanks to my fellow Deadheads who made it interesting, fun, and educational! This was my first year doing 30DOD and I really got into it. It also made me very nostalgic and reminded me that I MISS JERRY!!!
See you all next time if not sooner!
This is a deep thick stew of Grateful Dead here. One of my favorite tapes from a very experimental transitional year. Another fave tape of mine is from this same venue. Sometimes I wish they stayed with that chord progression around 4-5 minutes in known by many names...
Great year! Good to see everybody! They really made it more inclusive this year with the selections. No rehearsals or soundchecks ha.. I was sure that would happen. Wow... I never had a 30 for 30. Have fun everyone. Take care.
once again, thanks for a real good time
we're gonna take a short break and be back in a little bit, don't nobody go anywhere
My birthday and 30 Days of Dead happen every November. I had such fun playing, and I am looking forward to listening to all 30 in a row. Thanks, Dave! Thanks everyone that comes on and posts comments! I hope you all have a happy December and a great holiday season. Phil Lesh You a Jerry Christmas and a Happy Bob Weir!
