Larry Groce: Green Pastures Are Before Me

[cover art]

[LP cover] [Back cover]

Singer/songwriter Larry Groce has recorded over 20 albums covering a wide range of musical styles since the '70s, including the infamous Junkfood Junkie (Warner BS-2933) from 1976. Since 1984 he has hosted and co-produced the radio show Mountain Stage, a program with performing artists recorded live in front of an audience. The Band and Band members have been guesting on the program on several occasions, and are present on the album The Best of Mountain Stage Volume 1.

Groce's LP Green Pastures Are Before Me is an album of hymns from 1979, released on the Peaceable Records label and produced by C. Randolph Nauert. Garth Hudson was heavily involved on it, playing beautiful piano, organ, accordian and synth. Garth's wife Maud is also credited for vocals. One of the tracks, "The Lord's Prayer," was mixed by Ed Anderson at The Band's Shangri-La Studio in Malibu.
