The Second Album Picks Up Where The First Left Off...,
By AudioObscurica (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ricochet (Audio CD)
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...

Nitty Gritty Pre-Country Dirt,

This review is from: Ricochet (Audio CD)
This is my favorite NGDB album 'cause it's fresh, original, and there was nothing else like it when it came out in '67. I know 'cause I was there. A bunch of friends and I, who were in college at the time, loved to listen to this one, especially when we were feeling really good. Listening to it today brings a flood of memories about those good times. The Teddy Bears' Picnic is a real grabber, but the rest of the songs are good too, demonstrating musical virtuousity and the guts to be different. It's definitely not for the country music set - it's trippy and nostalgic. If you can listen to it without smiling, get thee to a shrink!

Just what I remembered. The sound is top shelf and the music takes me back to my college days. Great trip down memory lane.
