CPR is the first studio album recorded by Crosby, Pevar and Raymond (CPR). CPR's self-titled debut album came four years after David Crosby received a life-saving liver transplant. Featuring Jeff Pevar, renowned session guitarist and Crosby's son James Raymond, the trio crafted smart, heady, jazz-influenced rock that showcased their stunning harmonies. In 2001, they released Just Like Gravity.[2]
