With a monster Other One and an epic Dark Star> Stephen> Eleven> Lovelight, the show from this day in 1969 is off the hook. And, for good measure, it also includes the only Foxy Lady jam - keyed by Jerry and Phil - that the Dead ever played. Listen to the entire show at Grateful Dead of the Day.
On this day in 1985, the Dead filmed what was essentially a show for the documentary "So Far," which came out in '87. On the documentary, Jerry gets a directing credit for his work trying to capture the experience and culture of the Dead and their fans. Listen to the session. You can also watch the entire remastered documentary.
