Description

This is a really nice copy of folk singer Bob Martin’s first album, Midwest Farm Disaster.

"A highly talented singer-songwriter from Lowell, Massachusetts, Bob Martin released Midwest Farm Disaster in 1972 — a record that is generally acknowledged as his masterpiece and a genre benchmark.
Martin’s voice is gravelly, weathered, soulful and honest. Think of a strange Kevin Coyne, Van Morrison, or Bob Lind blend and you’re right on target. The lyrics are top shelf too, the equal or better of most of his critically acclaimed contemporaries. The sound of the LP is very close to Gene Clark’s White Light or Bob Lind’s Since There Were Circles, a stark, beautiful blend of folk and country that truly reveals its depth with repeated listens. With every song, Bob candidly brings the listener into his working class world spinning great American tales of local drunks, small town farm life, prison convicts, and hard times working on the mill."
