Gilded Palace was exceptional, groundbreaking, definitive. The songs were beyond reproach: "#2" still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Pete Kleinow's fuzzed pedal steel is simply revolutionary. Gram was a heaven-blessed singer. Gib Gilbeaux's voice does the same thing to me as fingernails on a blackboard - ugh!

And that include any albums by the later period Burritos (Gilbeaux era) or Firefall. It still has that 'rough around the edges' production quality and retains a lot of country elements. More than can be said for the slick, designed for FM stuff to come out of the genre later on.
