All the Good Times (Are Past & Gone) is the sixth studio album by Gillian Welch, the second solo studio album by David Rawlings (his fourth including his studio work with the Dave Rawlings Machine), and the first studio album officially credited to both Welch and Rawlings together. It was released in 2020 and won the 2021 Grammy award for Best Folk Album.[4] The album consists entirely of cover songs and traditional folk material, all presented in newly developed arrangements. Although Welch and Rawlings have collaborated extensively for many years through songwriting, studio work, and touring, this release marked the first time their music was issued as a fully joint album.[2]
