Quintet ’80
David Grisman
1980: Warner Bros BSK 3469
This isn’t a commercially-produced CD; a friend noted that it was never released on CD and asked if I could do a vinyl-to-digital transfer for him from his LP. When I finished, I decided I liked the album enough to keep a copy in my library. He described it as Bluegrass Jazz; I’d say it was more Rheinhardt/Grappelli-oriented, albeit with mandolin and a perkier tone.
