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 November, 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.
How the heck does that work?! Let us remind you...
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 2026 Grateful Dead wall calendar or the grand prize – a copy of the SOLD OUT limited-edition ENJOYING THE RIDE boxed set!'
Maybe there shouldn't be a comment section. It seems like there's gonna be someone that just doesn't know any better.
Don’t post the answer in the comments. Please!!
Yeah, that was heartbreaking for me too. I still and old 1984 Cosmic Charlie Campaign sticker.
I thought we finally had it!
Some great fiery lead guitar playing. Love Bob and Phil on here as well. Sometimes Bob's part sounds like a Phil part and vice versa... great tones on the rhythm gtr and bass gtr.
Easy to grab the date/venue so it was off to enjoy the sounds right away.
yeah, i was at that Oakland show when they started Cosmic Charlie. it was kinda heartbreaking when they switched, felt like Jerry might have chickened out ...
