Steel Cut Oats #5: Spirited In St. Louis

I had a riot re-visiting these shows to create this set. Steel Cut Oats #5 illustrates the band’s turn-on-a-dime abilities, and offers a powerful snapshot of the post-Pigpen Grateful Dead as they continued to charge fresh off a highly successful Spring European tour – Pig’s swan song – and a consistent run of several epic shows from August and September. 1972, along with the next two years are held as a watershed period for the Grateful Dead, and I couldn’t agree more. This set truly speaks for itself – on to the music – play it loud. Enjoy.

  1. If this is #5 where are the other posts in this series? The category tag only pulls up this one and Google does not have any more either.

  2. Hi! The first Volumes #1-4 will not be made available here, but know that future installments are already in the works, and will reside here.
