All the Good Times is the fifth studio album from The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, released in January 1972.

The Mini-Album

In addition to the full LP, the band's label United Artists also released a mini-album version of All the Good Times. [2] It had the same name and consisted of two 7 inch 33 1/3 RPM records. The first record contains five songs from the original album, "Baltimore", "Sixteen Tracks", "Slim Carter", "Fish Song", and "Jamaica, Say You Will". The second record contains a country jam and interview.

The country jam side is a "spontaneous acoustic recording" of three songs: "All The Good Times", "When Will I Be Loved", and "Mobile Line".

The interview side was recorded in January 1972. On it, the Dirt Band discusses "Uncle Charlie VS. All The Good Times", "Acoustic Instruments", "Traditional Music", "Colorado Consciousness", and "Live Recording".
