Brand New Release of a HOT '70s Jam from David (DAWG) Grisman:
"#acousticdisc I am pleased to announce this NEW release: "The Gasoline Brothers". The Gasoline Brothers is a treasure trove collection of 15 previously un-issued traditional bluegrass tunes and songs featuring Tony Rice and myself. These newly discovered performances, recorded in the 1970s, feature bassist Todd Phillips on all tracks, with banjo innovators Bill Keith (six tracks) and Steve Arkin (nine tracks) and fiddler Richard Greene (six tracks). Check it out here:
