Free Music Review: Celebrating the Dirt Band's First Golden Decade
Hit: 5 Stars
This compilation is a must-have purchase for neophyte and die-hard NGDB fans alike. For the casual fan, this covers most of the highlights from their first decade. While their pre-UNCLE CHARLIE releases had them often performing jug band, sometimes goofy material (like Cab Colloway's "Willie the Weeper"); they had a minor hit with "Buy for Me the Rain," which is a minor classic. Starting with 1970's UNCLE CHARLIE & HIS DOG TEDDY through 1975's SYMPHONIUM DREAM, every song is top notch. They even throw in a few tracks from their landmark WILL THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN album.
What makes this essential for the serious fan is that several of the tracks on disc two did not appear on previous studio albums and were released for the first time on this compilation back in 1976. Among the then new songs are "Mother Earth (Provides for Me)" and the Jeff Hanna original "Bowlegs."
While they didn't write all their own material, they utilized some of best songwriters avalable like Michale Nesmith ("Some of Shelly's Blues", Jackson Browne ("Melissa"), Michael Murphy ("Cosmic Cowboy, Part I"), Kenny Loggins ("House at Pooh Corner), and of course Jerry Jeff Walker, who penned their signature song "Mr. Bojangles."
This collection shows how important NGDB were along with the Byrds, Poco and the Flying Burrito Brothers in developing the country/rock genre. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
