专辑介绍:
这是个人从早年一批“打口CD”里抓出来的,所以从封面上是可以看到顶部有个“口子”的。整张唱片原本是有22首曲子的,正因为“被打口”了,所以最后一首不能完整的抓出来。以下内容是从网上复制而来。
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band是美国家喻户晓的一支蓝草/乡村乐队,于1965年成立于加利福尼亚,他们在乡村音乐历史中是一个重要角色,甚至影响了The Eagles这类大牌乐队。乐队成员Jimmie Fadden、Jeff Hanna、John McEuen在乡村音乐界都是响当当的大师。尤其是乐队成员Doc Watson是手指奏法的大师,他在民谣音乐领域活跃了50年,对原声吉他演奏的贡献也许比任何一位吉他手都要大。Watson是天生的盲人,但他的音乐理念和清晰完美的音色让人惊叹。他能为任何一位音乐家做出色的伴奏,参与了很多经典专辑的录制。他被评为20世纪最伟大的100名吉他手之一。另外,The Eagles的吉他手Bernie Leadon也曾在Nitty Gritty Dirt Band乐队效力。
The first album issued by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band after they had temporarily disbanded in 1969, this greatly expanded their pop audience, due primarily to the Top 10 hit cover of Jerry Jeff Walker's "Mr. Bojangles" (which actually wasn't a hit until early 1971). The group moved into a more accessible rock-oriented fusion of country, bluegrass, pop, and rock & roll, relying primarily on smartly chosen covers of tunes by the likes of Walker, Mike Nesmith, Randy Newman, and Kenny Loggins. Few bands had incorporated instruments more commonly associated with country and bluegrass, particularly mandolin and banjo, as comfortably into a rock setting prior to this release, and their well-crafted harmonies help put the songs over for those not-steeped-in backwoods sounds. It was an extremely diverse program for a country-rock album, too, moving from rustic instrumentals and snippets of tapes of elderly musicians performing rural Americana to the Buddy Holly cover "Rave On." The group were actually at their best, though, when doing softer, melodic pop tunes. "Mr. Bojangles" was a deserved huge success in that regard, but Nesmith's "Some of Shelley's Blues" and Loggins' "House at Pooh Corner" were almost as catchy and appealing.
