Happy Thanksgiving! 

As always here on the Deadpod, I'm publishing this holiday edition on Thanksgiving day for you to enjoy sometime during your festivities, if you like. As is also the tradition on the Deadpod, this is an acoustic show, and I've managed to find a really beautiful acoustic set for this year, coming to us from September 26, 1980 at the Warfield in San Francisco. 

This one starts with the first 'To Lay Me Down' since 10/19/74, and the first 'On the Road Again' since 12/1/66! 

These versions are really wonderful, including the very first acoustic 'Cassidy' and a soulful 'China Doll' into 'Ripple'.

Let me take this chance to tell you how thankful I am for the chance to bring you this music each week. Thank you for your support, your kind words, suggestions and encouragement. 

May this find you with loads to be thankful for, surrounded by those you love.
