Died Pretty's magnificent 1986 debut LP: Free Dirt is one of the all-time classic Australian albums. It followed 3 excellent singles / EP’s and signalled the arrival of what would become one of our most-loved bands over their celebrated 18 year career.

Collected here, for the first time, are Died Pretty's first five releases: the 'Out Of The Unknown' and 'Mirror Blues' singles, the Next To Nothing EP, the Free Dirt album and the 'Stoneage Cinderella' single. PLUS an additional 10 bonus tracks – including previously unreleased demos, a live-to-air radio performance from 1986 and other live rarities.

This deluxe 2CD version is packaged in an 8 panel digi-pak, with a 28 page booklet containing many previously unpublished photos. It has been digitally remastered from the original master tapes.

2008 was remarkable year for Died Pretty, who reformed for the “Don’t Look Back” Series of concerts in February / March. Following some rapturously received DLB shows, and their upcoming induction into the EG Hall Of Fame, the band agreed to extend their reformation to The Age EG Awards on the 4th. of December (said to be their last ever club show).
