Grateful Dead

Not to be that guy, but how are winners being chosen? I've submitted correct answers several times within very few minutes to no avail. Is this an 'insider's' game?

Found the 2 possible shows yesterday. Found the right one. Somehow wrote down the other one. F***** SPAC! What a loser. Today i feel good lets call it 14 of 15.

To be honest I think we are all winners. We get the opportunity to play, engage and receive some wonderful music. For me, I do my best to enter but without any expetcation of being selected (on the rare occasion I submit the right answer) given I am in UK which makes p&p super costly and tedious for all concerned.

Beautiful rendition here, as they all are. Jerry plays his final notes of Let It Grow in a higher register than usual, which was my big clue today.
Thanks Dave & Co. :)

Morning comes, we follow the clues to the proper show.
Will try to avoid the wind and rain these next few days. Summers definitely gone.
What shall we say, other than WRS is an incredibly beautiful piece of music.
Certainly one of my all time favorite eras of the band.
Thanks David!

The last third of this song is redundant, otherwise great Bobby.

STILL NO PIGPEN. 4+ years, and counting.

The other day I suggested that Jack Straw was my favorite Dead tune. I lied. I think WRS is my favorite Dead tune. A thing of absolute beauty and one of those Dead songs which is arguably better in the studio than live (except for Let It Grow which is awesome live). Looking forward to hearing this one.

be careful with ultimatums when you’re wrong on both!

…First time WINNER!!! I’m ecstatic!!!

Congrats! Seeing your name in the today’s winner slot is so fun, added bonus to the incredible gift we all share in the 30DOD. Yes the real prize is the adventure, the discoveries, and each other. Maybe Dave & Co. can join Good Ol Deadcast one of these days to talk about the dynamics of selections, processes, goals, participation, and so much more re: 30DOD and more importantly all the endless nuggets to share about a day(or lifetime) in the life in the vault. So grateful!

Do you wake up in the morning longing for a rabbit hole to go down?

Do your ears have an incessant desire to sync music from two locations until it is "just exactly right"?

If so, ask your friends if "30 Days of Dead" is right for you.

30 Days of Dead has shown to be helpful to feed these desires.

CAUTION: Participants may experience a sense of community, enhance their technical listening skills, and generally be filled with excessive glee.

This is my first year doing this and I LOVE IT!!! I am having so much fun!!!

First listen clues me in to the fact that this version is coming out of something rather than a cold start. The ending is a full stop, so it eliminates any long jam into another song. Found a Jerry riff that synced up just right.

found that Deal from yesterday with help from Bobby's set break announcement. pretty sure I found the match for today. glad to be back in the groove after missing 3 days in a row this week for either running out of time or not listening and just looking at setlists.
Some of my favorite musical moments so far from this month: Feel Like A Stranger the bass is delicious and there's a moment where it sounds like they're about to go into an Eleanor Rigby jam. The little tuning "jam" before Victim after the preceding Sugaree from that show sounds like it could be from a Genesis song. Plus that Victim freak out jam and when they come back in for the ending expertly. Love the sound of Pigpen's voice and the loudness of the bass in Alligator. And the Terrapin>Sailor>Saint is chef's kiss to me. I love the sound of Brent at that time and everything sounds so smooth and I want it constantly pumped into my veins. The Black-Throated Wind guitars are great. And that Deal!
Thank you for the musical goodies! Excited for the second half of the month.

Yeah, I kinda wish Dave had given us the previous song too for todays gem but the full "Weather Report Suite" is a nice touch. I prefer my abridged "Let it Grows" preceding a "Deal" and if it's a Brent show more than likely it's a BIG Deal too!

Thank you, Dave, for introducing me to this show! That’s as psychedelic as I’ve ever heard. The x-factor in full effect for this Weather Report Suite, and my ears were fortunately open to perceive the mind meld at work.

I finally got today's but I had to pretty much brute force it. Fortunately there was a good clue early on so I could listen to 30 or 40 versions relatively quickly. Took some time, but it was another civilized puzzle.

Based on headyversion data, this version of WRS is the 40th best alltime. And based on my own proprietary algorithm, based on herbibot data, the show it came from was the 60th best show of that year.

Jerry's unique guitar tones at the end were key for me locating the correct version as has been mentioned. Speaking of keys, I really appreciated them being so prominent in the mix, which is not always the case. Man did the Dead ever play some long sets back then. True road warriors.

I listened to 51 versions, and I must have missed something.
I would like to know how many people enter daily/monthly, and I agree that a Good Old Grateful Dead podcast episode should be devoted to the 30 days process.

I found a setlist for a 52nd show, but no audio for it. SO I picked that one.

Amazing how many shows were officially released. guess this one snuck through lol

WOW hate to admin I have not spent a lot of time with Weather Report but have always loved Let It Grow. So freaking beautiful, Phil was absolutely perfect this night! The Most Beautiful Live version up to this point in time in my opinion.
I AM... I AM..... I AM.........I AM!

Thought I'd try here then there then... 3rd try! The outro of the song before it and those piano notes right at the beginning of the suite here give it exactly. Almost thought it got too late and I would miss trying a guess today. Finish the suite and then read a bit before bed. 15/15 woo hoo! Enjoy!

Heh.... the Pigpen poster still does not realize that Alligator was offered up this year... C'mon man, read a little. Poke a round a bit as they say ya just gotta...

I caught it maybe on my third listen ,,, thought it would be quick and easy but not today. I'll enjoy it now.
