Dead Show/podcast for 1/9/15

I'm hoping that this high energy second set from the New Year's Eve show of 1969 helps to warm you up if you are stuck in the deep freeze as I am this week.. This tape has some choice early versions of some classic tunes as well as some that were played very infrequently that you may never have heard.. Alligator and the jams that come from it are a great start, The Eleven is fab, the early version of High Time - a favorite of mine. There are several cuts on this tape, and I hope that they don't interfere with your enjoyment of this slice of Grateful Dead history...    Grateful Dead Boston Tea Party Boston, MA 12/31/69 - Wednesday   set 2:  Tuning Alligator ->; Drums  -> Alligator  -> Jam  -> And We Bid You Good Night Jam -> Alligator -> Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks) -> Feedback -> Good Lovin'  -> Drums  -> The Eleven  High Time   Cumberland Blues Big Boy Pete  Not Fade Away  Seasons  The Race Is On  Silver Threads And Golden Needles Slewfoot  Dancing In The Street   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod010915.mp3   As always, let me express my thanks to the generous folks who keep the Deadpod alive through their kind donations.. .     Stay Warm :)
