The Race Is On


Covered by the Grateful Dead live 12/30/1969 in Boston, possibly earlier. Performed many times in later years. Released on record on "Reckoning" (1981) from acoustic concerts in Sept/Oct 1980.

While there is probably a legal tape of the 1969 concert, we stick to publicly released recordings. So, it's "The Reckoning" that's used here, even though The Dead performed the song many times live before then.


The song is now added. Thanks!
