The Grateful Dead‘s long awaited sixth studio album, Wake of the Flood, marked a new era for the California band. Their first studio album in nearly three years, this was the first album on their independent Grateful Dead Records label as well as the first to feature the couple Keith Godchaux on piano and keyboards and Donna Jean Godchaux on backing vocals. This seven track album features compositions which draw from a blend of influences, ranging from the roots genres of country, folk and ragtime to a seventies modern fusion of funk and jazz rock.

The album The Grateful Dead decided to record in 1973 had to be good. They had just came out with numerous hits and perfect albums in previous years. But making another Workingman's Dead or another American Beauty is next to impossible. So, The Grateful Dead just decided to put some of their well known live performances on record. For solo efforts, they would released all of the material off of "Round Records". Wake of the Flood is with out a doubt a Grateful Dead gem. The compositions within the album, are greater than any other. The album is filled with emotion, and influence.
