Archive.org has over 2,400 show available for streaming or download of the Grateful Dead, that is a number I can’t even wrap my head around. If you downloaded a show a day and listened to it, well it would take you over six and a half years to make it through the collection.
Currently it is closed from public uploads, with the sound board versions offered in only streaming format. Audience recordings are available for download in various formats and range in quality, since I am attempting to only offer up shows that you can download for this series I have …read more

If you only have time to listen to one track listen to: Live for Now
Once and awhile you will come across something that you instantly dig, this was one of those times. I really liked Daphne Willis within two minutes of “Live For Now”, her voice stood out to me and I enjoyed her lyrics.
