A three-record set spanning 's career from its first album in 1967 to 1976, features all of the band's hits, including "Buy for Me the Rain," "Mr. Bojangles," "Battle of New Orleans," and the historic "Will the Circle Be Unbroken." The compilation also showcased many odds and ends (hence the "Dirt" in the title) that blend in nicely with the rest of the selections. If anyone is wondering about the pre-1976, this excellent collection is where they should begin. ~ James Chrispell
