AllMusic[2]

Free Dirt is the first full-length album by Australian alternative rock band Died Pretty, released in 1986.[3][4] The album was repackaged in 2008 by Aztec Music with a second CD containing seven singles and six live recordings from 1986.

Trouser Press wrote: "The highly recommended album — which contains glimmers of the ’60s, Dylan, Gram Parsons, folk-rock and neo-psychedelic — uses guest contributions of mandolin, violin, pedal steel and sax to magnify the band’s own essential variety."[1]
