The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Symphonion Dream

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.  Symphonion Dream.
This is a very cool cover. Most album covers are side entry as we know. This one is a top entry album cover, and in the photo you can see the album cover flap is extended and in the open position. I took the photo of the album cover laid over 90 degrees, then inverted the image on my computer, and cropped the image - in case you are wondering why the photo looks odd. I do know that the "Dirt Band" is cut from true American fabric, in every aspect. I posted a Jerry Jeff Walker recently. He wrote a song that is most well known being recorded by the NGDB, Mr. Bojangles. This record is called Symphonion Dream, it is from 1975. The band were joined by guest musicians Leon Russell and Linda Ronstadt, along with actor Gary Busey, who was credited on the album as "Teddy Jack Eddy," who played percussion - including More Cowbell! I am not sure where it was recorded.
