"Wake of the Flood is the sixth Grateful Dead studio album.
It was recorded between Aug 4–15, 1973, and originally released
on Oct 15, 1973. It was the first release under the band's own
label, Grateful Dead Records, after fulfilling their nine-disc
contract with Warner Bros. Records. It was their first full-length
studio album in nearly three years, since 1970's American Beauty.
It was also the first studio album without Ron "Pigpen" McKernan,
who had recently died. His absence and new piano player
Keith Godchaux's tendency towards jazz (rather than McKernan's
tendency towards the blues) contributed to the band's musical
evolution. Godchaux's wife, Donna Godchaux, also makes
an appearance as a backing vocalist on the album.

Upon its October 1973 release, the album actually fared better
on the pop charts compared to their last studio album, American
Beauty. It peaked at #18, but none of the band's singles were able
to reach the national charts"
