4 out of 5 stars Waited for this for a LONG time!.......2007-03-20

I have been a Dirt Band fan since I was in junior high school. These albums, nicely priced and combined on one CD, were early staples in my collection. When the Dirt Band dropped the "Nitty Gritty" from their name and reorganized in 1978 without Jimmy Ibbotson and Les Thompson, their sound changed dramatically. It took a while for me to adjust to the guys who did a lot of bluegrass music in the 1960s and 1970s now rocking it out loud and without apology.

While the band has never fully forsaken their traditional roots, their temporary departure was a good thing. As Chris Hillman (the Byrds, Flying Burrito Brothers, Desert Rose Band) once said of the Byrds' "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" album, "they were too country for the rock audience and too rock for the country audience." I think the same applies to the Dirt Band between 1978 and 1982. The music on these two albums, along with their self-titled 1978 album and 1979's "American Dream" will grow on you.

Stand-out songs for me include: FIRE IN THE SKY (one of their best songs ever, in my opinion -- Kenny Loggins adds lead vocals to Jeff Hanna's here), ANXIOUS HEART (not written by the guys in the band but wow -- they make this one stand out), BADLANDS (don't confuse this with the Bruce Springsteen song of the same title --- the band's song is much better), EASY SLOW (only John McEuen from the Dirt Band and Bela Fleck from New Grass Revival can make the banjo sound like it belongs in the middle of a rock ballad), JEALOUSY (loud, guitar-driven, strong vocals by Jeff Hanna and Rosemary Butler; guitar solos by Steve Lukather from TOTO), CATCH THE NEXT DREAM (authored by the guys from Blackhawk).

The only two weak songs (my opinion) are "Too Good to Be True" and "Party Lights" -- they could have been deleted from the album and I wouldn't have missed them. Sorry guys -- not real impressed by either.

This double CD set faithfully reproduces the original graphics, artwork, and liner notes of the original LPs.

Well worth the money!

5 out of 5 stars The NItty Gritty Band at It's Best.......2007-02-24

These two albums on 1 CD represent a musical change in the Dirt Band's career. They cross over to country rock with such ease and flair, that it makes you realize just how great this group is. I have been a Dirt Band fan since 1967 and have enjoyed all of their CDs, be it country, BlueGrass, Rock, etc. They have the talent and skills to play almost all genres. What a great CD. It is a good introduction to the band if you have never heard them before. Expect great harmonies, beautiful arrangements, and first class musicianship, Great CD. Great artist. This CD ranks with their classic Uncle Charlie CD, awesome and inspiring.

5 out of 5 stars Classic music that's stronger than dirt.......2002-08-17

Two long-out-of-print LPs in one great CD, capturing the early pre-country years of NGDB. The "Alive!" performance, with its blend of great music and comedy (Jeff Hanna's monologue about how John McEuen became "King of De Banjo", the unforgettable "Fat Boys Can Make It In Santa Monica" - as well as their performaces of "Crazy Words, Crazy Tune" in both regular and speeded-up versions - are not to be missed!), paired with 1969's "Rare Junk," a compilation of songs that had not seen the light of LP or 45 (except for one song),
give the listener an incredible "look" at a band that's still making great music 35 years later.
P.S. For the one reviewer who asked, "The Broken Road" appears on two albums: "Hold On" (Warner Bros.) and "Acoustic" (Liberty/Capitol Nashville), both available from the NGDB's website.

5 out of 5 stars Two Great Albums One One CD..........2001-05-03

...is an excellent purchase. The Dirt Band at the Troubadour in November 1967 makes up the 'Alive' album,and the 1969 odds-and-ends compilation (of unused material,save 'Collegiana') "Rare Junk". Both were issued after the group broke up (1969). The NGDB later reformed a year later. This CD is an excellent purchase.

5 out of 5 stars I like it.......1999-09-18

This was a good cd. I liked the music, but the one album I really wan is no where to be found. I want the album that has Broken Road on it. Do you still have it somewhere?

2 out of 5 stars Dirt Band/An American Dream - Trash.......2007-05-12

I am disappointed with this CD. I bought the CD for the title track which proved to be the only track worth listening to in my opinion. I have been a long term fan of The Dirt Band but this CD is not one of their best. If you are looking for happy island style music I suggest sticking with Buffett.

4 out of 5 stars Not their best, but pretty darned good........2003-09-11

This CD represents the transitional period for the Dirt Band between their earlier, great bluegrass-flavored country rock, and much of the Nashville-country stuff they did later on. There are definite signs of the slicker, more commercial direction they were to head for on their later releases, especially on the "American Dream" album, but the best material here is really great. Out of print for many years, these two albums (now on one CD) are definitely worth seeking out for fans of the NGDB or anyone who likes quality country-rock. Though not quite up to some of their very best work (check out "Symphonion Dream", for example, or the "Uncle Charlie" album-- not to mention "Stars & Stipes", "Dirt, Silver & Gold" or any of the "Circle" albums), the musicianship on these albums is still superb, and there are some great songs here. "On The Loose" alone is worth the price of admission. In addition, the sound quality is excellent (kudos to BGO Records). If you're a rabid fan of this band (as I am), this CD is a must.

4 out of 5 stars Great Music, But..........2005-07-04

This anthology certainly showcases the Dirt Band's instrumental prowess--especially banjo wizard John McEuen--but with eight of these tracks culled from the "must-own" albums UNCLE CHARLIE & HIS DOG TEDDY and WILL THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN, there seems little point to this collection. In addition, with barely thirty minutes of music on this disc, it's not much of a bargain. The four stars is for the music, but my advice is to buy the two previously mentioned albums and skip DIRT ON THE STRINGS.

4 out of 5 stars Great instrumental music from NGDB.......2005-03-28

If you're not careful, you might overlook Dirt On The Strings. This record features many of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's classic instrumental performances. Practically all the material was recorded in the '70s--the only exception was "Return To Dismal Swamp II", which appeared on NGDB's recent Will The Circle Be Unbroken 3 album. However, the songs sound as fresh now as they were when NGDB originally recorded them.

There are a lot of highlights here. Earl Scruggs' "Randy Lynn Rag", dedicated to Earl's son Randy and originally from the Dirt Band's Uncle Charlie album, has a "live" feel to it--as NGDB's John McEuen tells it, everybody in the studio was watching the band play the song on the last take, and it loosened him and his bandmates up. "Clinch Mountain Back Step", another song that was first on the Uncle Charlie record, is also a classic bluegrass tune. "Foggy Mountain Breakdown", like "Randy Lynn" an Earl Scruggs classic, didn't make it onto NGDB's classic Will The Circle Be Unbroken album at first, although it was recorded in the Circle sessions. Fortunately, when the remastered 30th anniversary edition of Circle came out in '02, "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" was on the record--and it's on here. John McEuen created "Togary Mountain", also from the first Circle album, for Randy Scruggs' older brother Gary("so he wouldn't feel left out", according to John). "Soldier's Joy", another song from the original Circle album, is a banjo duet featuring Earl and John. On "Lonesome Fiddle Blues", still another gem from the original Circle album, the band is joined by legendary fiddler Vassar Clements. "Chicken Reel" and "Listen To The Mockingbird" are traditional folk songs, and NGDB's Jimmie Fadden does his "squawking chicken" sound on "Chicken Reel". "Clemente Opus 36" is a classical tune played by John on the banjo. "Jas'Moon", from NGDB's American Dream album of '79, doesn't quite fit on Dirt On The Strings, although it's well-done. Unlike the other songs from this record, which are all folk, bluegrass and classical tunes, "Jas'Moon" is a "fusion" of pop, jazz and bluegrass. NGDB had gotten away from their roots(bluegrass, folk-rock and country) when "Jas'Moon" was recorded. On Dirt On The Strings, it sounds out of place.

I haven't had Dirt On The Strings very long, and it's already one of my favorite NGDB albums. The Dirt Band's musicianship on this record, especially John McEuen's banjo picking, is excellent. Also, I think John's notes on how NGDB came to record the songs that are included here are fun to read. Don't pass up this collection--it includes some of NGDB's best music.

In 1967, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band released their first album (which is a hard to find Japanese import CD only) which was pretty much a mixture of styles, here the Dirt Band take the styles and find a great way to do them. There's kazoo-dominated numbers,rock/pop,folk and country. An album to get if you're interesting in what one of country music's most successful acts sounded like 34 years ago...

    3 out of 5 stars Where are the missing songs?.......2005-11-03

    The first Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album was a classic. It needs to be re-issued in it's entirety. I have been looking for it for years. I already own their second album(CD) "Ricochet" so buying this CD would be a waste as I am only getting half the songs of the first album and some of the best were left off. Anyone who feels the same should also write a review and perhaps we can get the producers to give us one CD with their first two albums together in their entirety.

    3 out of 5 stars Why only half of the picture?.......2001-05-12

    This is a compilation that contains half songs from The Dirt Band's first album and half from their second. Both of these albums are very short and would have easily fit on one disc. Everytime I listen to it, it just annoys me that I can't hear the other half of the first album. Some of the most interesting songs, such as "Euphoria", "Melissa" and "Crazy Words, Crazy Tune" were left off. I wish I could find the first album in it's entirety on compact disc.

    3 out of 5 stars It would have been better to reissue the debut.......2001-05-03

    The first two albums by the Dirt Band were split in half for one disc released in the UK in 1967. Only having half of each album leaves a good second half out of the picture. BGO has reissued "Ricochet" in it's entirety, so why have this album out with half of that on it? Why not just reissue the first album? The first album is essential in any west-coast, jugband,country (etc.) collection. If you can find the LP of it (Liberty LST-7501) pick it up. This is a good compilation for the Bruce Kunkel-era Dirt Band (just these two albums,only). You should then seek out BGO's 2 on 1 of the Dirt Band's 3rd and 4th albums "Alive" and "Rare Junk".

    4 out of 5 stars A 'Classic' We Somehow Forgot...........2001-05-03

    In 1971, after 'Bojangles' went up the charts The Dirt Band were settling into Colorado, their music was still changing. After the success of 'Uncle Charlie', the group recorded this album. "All The Good Times" is composed of two live tracks "Sixteen Tracks" the first track and "Diggy Diggy Lo", the last track. The album is a little rough, the Cajun imitations aren't all that great, "Jamaica Say You Will" is a little out of place. Songs like "Down In Texas" and "Civil War Trilogy" (a McEuen banjo instrumental) and most of the rest of the album is comprised of excellent country-rock reminiscent of late Springfield, or Poco. It's not that bad, pretty good for an album that has become a forgotten piece of their catalog. A lost treasure.
