Product Description:
This highly revered album is now available on CD for the first time ever! The package includes the original cover art, photos, and lyrics. All 10 of the original album songs are on the disc, plus 3 "bonus tracks". Many will find they have never heard these 3 songs before. All 13 tracks have been Digitally-Remastered from the Original Master Tapes.
The Ozark Mountain Daredevils united as a band in December of 1970. The group was signed to A&M Records in 1972 and, in 1973, they recorded their first self-titled album in London, England, resulting in the hit song "If You Wanna Get to Heaven". The second album, "It'll Shine When It Shines", included the song "Jackie Blue", a world-wide No. 1 hit. While at A&M Records, the band recorded eight albums resulting in two Gold Records in the US and Canada. The band subsequently signed with Columbia Records in 1981, where they recorded one album. At least three other projects followed in the '80s.

MEN FROM EARTH was the last great album by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Randle Chowning had left the band before it was recorded (although he plays and sings on it), and had been replaced by Rune Walle, but the band's sound still remains the same. Many people have criticized this album because of Chowning's absence, but that criticism was undeserved, because it's as great as the previous three. If you buy the first four Ozark Mountain Daredevils CDs, including this one, you'll have a perfect library ... Read More

I may be different from others in only having a few REAL favorites by OMD, but they've always given me a high regard for the group's great creativity. One is on this album and makes it worthwhile in itself: FLY AWAY HOME. Fabulous! Probably my favorite favorite.... And yeh that cover picture is a real gem!

This was the first ozark lp I ever listened to having picked up a second hand import copy in the UK. At first I thought the two guys on the front cover were members of the band! Well the guys on the back looked like younger versions relaxed in jeans and t-shirts, but I knew they were popular with the critics so I gave it a try.
I loved it instantly: it was fresh and unprententious country rock and the band looked happy with life which is quite rare in the over serious world of rock. From then ... Read More

Great to see this fantastic album on CD ! This album is an absolute classic and anyone interested in good pop/country rock should buy this album. The remastering is also very well done.
I do have one little point of criticism though; the track "You know like I know" has a running time of 3 minutes and 41 seconds while my vinyl version clocks at 4 minutes and 6 seconds. This CD version has the omission of 25 reallybeautiful seconds from the middle of the song.
But despite this............go out and ... Read More

What is it that would make an album like this one of my never-will-get-tired-of-this favorites? I don't know, but I'm delighted to have it on CD at last. I'm also pleased with the bonus tracks.
On the whole, the sound is outstanding too. So far, I haven't noticed a *trace* of tape hiss--although I'm not sure if this is from very clean original tapes, or from modern signal processing (which is not necessarily without its downside). The CD has a much more bottom-heavy sound than the LP, and to my ears ... Read More
