Scotty's Music Store is a famous pedal steel guitar shop in St. Louis. This
was an afternoon jam session in the store that preceeded the Dead's show
later in the evening at the Fox Theatre. THIS SHOW WAS PREVIOUSLY LISTED AS
12-7-1971 BUT THIS DATE IS INCORRECT AS THE DEAD WERE IN NEW YORK CITY AT
THE TIME.
Guests
(1) Gibson guitar rep (name unknown) (guitar)

Notes: Early versions of this recording where labeled 12-7-1971. The master
reel label's "9" was accidentally transcribed as a "7", thus resulting in
the incorrect date.

December 7, 1971

Jetty's theater Music Hall, Wash,DC

Picked up something I haven't seen elsewhere.
This single sbd CD features Jerry Garcia & Buddy Cage jamming and
noodling with a few Marmaduke vocals and a Weir vocal (Seasons).
Someone (Marmaduke) picks up a bass halfway through)
Very interesting artifact, not from the vault. Session runs until reel
runs out (47:30)

Here what I have on this:
=================================
Jam Session Info
Here's the note from James that came with the show:
Now, to the other goody I sent you. Here's the story on that. A friend of
mine who does sound and production work here in St. Louis was taking slide
guitar lessons and went through the archive of open reel tapes they had
there and found the one in question. He asked to borrow it and took it home
and did a 24 bit digital transfer from the mono 7" open reel. This hasn't
been heard by many more people than Brad, myself and a few others in 30
years!!! I was pretty damn excited about the discovery and glad that I was
only the second person that had heard it counting Brad after he mastered the
tape. As far as I know at this point it's Jerry Garcia, Buddy Cage and other
members of NRPS. Other than that that's all I know right now. The Grateful
Dead's archives don't even have this tape. Pretty fun stuff to listen too
even though it's a lot of noodling and such. I kinda like it myself.
Everything was plugged straight into the open reel deck. So the source would
be:
7" mono open reel > 24 bit transfer > resample > CD-R
