The Dead killed it in pure primal fashion on this day in 1968. Out of the gate with a driving Other One suite, the boys never let up, including on what might be the first-ever Dark Star> Stephen> Eleven. There is also pure Pig bliss with a raging Schoolgirl and a tasty Lovelight. Fire up and listen to this show at Grateful Dead of the Day.
The Dead, along with a host of other folks, including David Crosby, John Cippolina, and Jack Casady, got together in Mickey’s barn and jammed on this day in 1971. The music is dreamy and fun, “a couple super cool stoned dudes, jamming on a sunny Sunday afternoon,” for a radio broadcast promoted as “A Day In The Country.” Enjoy the session and read more.
