Episode 285: Get Shown The Light - Grateful Dead - Part One

Despite being one of, if not THE, greatest American rock n' roll bands, the Grateful Dead are just recently getting their proper due. With hundreds of hours of shows recorded by fans and the band available online, connoisseur's have always looked toward the official releases for the purest shot of cosmic truth that they can find.

And now they have their holy grail.

In part one of a two part journey, Andre and Eduardo are joining Kevin in the basement to dig into Get Shown The Light, the latest release form the Dead archives that chronicles the band at a time that many consider to be their peak: May 1977.

Tune in, turn on and come hang out with us for a while as we geek out over one of our favorite band's music, their mythology, and why it's still relevant today.
