Hirth From Earth

"This record was produced by Robbie Robertson. His playing along with Garth Hudson's gives this a sound similar to that of the Band but laid over Martinez's unusual songwriting style. It's an idiosyncratic, and wonderful record." -Richard Meyer, All-Music Guide


This CD was released in 1975 by Warner Brothers Records.
