The Grateful Dead - 30 Days of the Dead: 2017 Edition

Since 2010, the Grateful Dead through their website has released songs from their vault and celebrated "30 Days of the Dead" each November 1st to the 30th.  The daily song release is in conjunction with a contest that contains a clue as to where each song was recorded the particular tour and venue.  The winner is then entered into a larger drawing for rare and unreleased Grateful Dead music.  While I enjoy listening to the Dead and saw them a number of times between 1988 and 1992, I am by no means a "Deadhead" and cannot pick out the minute details of each performance like other people can.  But I do enjoy listening to the Dead and songs from various shows.  Here is this years track list.
