Red Dirt were a British heavy blues-rock band, whose sole eponymous album appeared and disappeared again in 1970, leaving little impression on the record-buying public, grinding blues-rock / rasping vocals, heavy guitars. Not associated with the Blues boom but a band with their own agenda. The album, Red Dirt from 1970 goes for big bucks, so if you’re a million bucks short of a million, the re-issue cd is out there. Here’s a link to the band. http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTRjaGPP-k5gJlGn89TwYeg?feature=watch
