Earth Opera - Earth Opera. CD. (Wounded Bird Records - WOU 4016) Excellent debut album from 1968 by this Boston based US psych group who included David Grisman and combined elements of folk, country and rock music together and added a surreal psychedelic undercurrent. It's an interesting melange that at times resembles later Incredible Stringband. Well worth investigating. Originally on Elektra.

Earth Opera - Earth Opera/The Great American Eagle Tragedy. CD. (Elektra - 8122765022) Great 2 on 1 disc that contains this 60's Boston based US psych groups 2 Elektra albums which included David Grisman & Peter Rowan. Both LP's combined elements of folk, country and rock music together and added a surreal psychedelic undercurrent particularly evident on the first album.These albums stand up very well in comparison to other acts from the period and the overall Boston Sound.Tastefully housed in a slipcase.

Earth Opera - The Great American Eagle Tragedy. CD. (Wounded Bird Records - WOU 4038) This second album from the Boston band was released in 1969. With guest appearances from John Cale amongst others, this was a fine example of psychedelic country rock, both Peter Rowan and David Grisman later appearing with the Grateful Dead during their own country rock period.
