The Allman Brothers Band - Eat A Peach (Capricorn, 1972)
Dedicated to a brother, Duane. Picked up at Fresh Produce Records in Macon, which felt right. Sans auto changer, playing sides 1, 3, 2, 4 with a quick flip to keep Mountain Jam intact, as god intended.
Marcos Valle & Azymuth - Fly Cruzeiro (Tidal Waves reissue, 2023, first released 1972)
Originally pressed and gifted to customers of Cruzeiro Airlines in Brazil (Valle had family connections). MPB library music?
Ralph Towner - Old Friends, New Friends (ECM, 1979)
Pausing from A-Z to file away some new (used) acquisitions from the past year. Majestic, melancholy expressions by Towner, Kenny Wheeler, Eddie Gomez, Michael Di Pasqua, and David Darling on cello, apropos of a cold winter night.

Steve Gunn - The Unseen In Between (Matador, 2019)
I was bummed when what would've been my first Gunn show was canceled in the early weeks of the pandemic, when this most excellent record was still fresh, then elated to catch him in my first vaccinated indoor concert the following year (yay vaccines!).
David Grisman - Dawg Jazz / Dawg Grass (Warner Bros, 1983)
ft. the DG Quartet and special guests including Stephane Grappelli on the swingin side A and
Tony Rice, Jerry Douglas, and Earl Scruggs on the swampy side B, also the source of the Car Talk theme

The David Grisman Quintet (Kaleidoscope, 1977)
Debut DGQ ft. Tony Rice, Darol Anger, Todd Phillips, Bill Amatneek. Bluegrass? Jazz grass? Dawg music? Stunning.

Grant Green - Alive! (Blue Note, 2019 reissue, first released 1970)
Sweaty boogie down jazz fuuunnk recorded live at the Cliche Lounge in Newark, NJ on 8/15/70. First time I heard "Down Here on the Ground" was a jamais vu moment (thanks to Q-Tip): https://youtu.be/DZA8YFXMx3w?si=tYJXlBRpQ6v_X-fx
Grateful Dead - Workingman's Dead (Warner, 50th anniversary remaster, first released 1970)
Back to my comprehensive listening/cataloging "project", recharged by an upgraded amp that has me hearing old records anew. If you forced me to choose a single favorite GD studio album, this is probably it. (or the other classic from later that year, which I'm actually listening to now, but can't keep up)
