We continue our Primus-adjacent chronology with the 2001 release by Oysterhead, The Grand Pecking Order. This record came about after Les Claypool, Trey Anastasio, and Stewart Copeland reconvened at Trey's barn in Vermont many months after their only planned gathering, a one-off (at the time) show in May 2000 in New Orleans.
In this episode, we chart the band's formation and development of the record, and we also do our due diligence to the record's first track, Little Faces, including mining the first performance for some nuggets that would resurface on this studio cut.
