Publisher's Synopsis
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band played an important role in the transformation from folk-rock into country-rock, and were a major influence on such bands as the Eagles and Alabama. The band's seminal triple album 'Will the Circle Be Unbroken' became a million-seller on its release in in January 1973. The band have since performed and recorded with any number of country/bluegrass crossover artists whose career paths were made easier by that first record, including John Hiatt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Rosanne Cash. Here they perform a selection of their greatest hits live in concert. Features guest appearances by Stella Parton and Gus Harding.
