Popularly known as the "Brown Album," this is the collection people first think of when this outfit's name is mentioned. The four-parts Canadian, one-part Arkansan quintet's effort boasts more soon-to-be-staples than any other Band studio recording, what with the likes of the BAEZ hit "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," "Across the Great Divide," and "Up on Cripple Creek" standing out among the dozen uniformly memorable tracks.
Lesser-known group originals such as the achingly lovely "Whispering Pines" and the cryptic "Unfaithful Servant," however, play crucial roles in giving this 1969 classic its unique flavor. Given the high standard established by THE BAND and its better-still 1968 predecessor, MUSIC FROM THE BIG PINK it's not surprising the Band peaked early as a recording group

The Band's second album, self titled, is probably better known as the Brown Album and is the group's most familiar piece of work. Some major tunes from this album include the Joan Baez hit "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down", "Up On Cripple Creek" and "Across the Great Divide".
"The Band was four-fifths Canadian — drummer Levon Helm was from Arkansas — but its second album was all American. Guitarist Robbie Robertson's songs vividly evoke the country's pioneer age — "Across the Great Divide," "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" — while pointedly reflecting the state of the nation in the 1960s. The Band's long life on the road resonates in the brawn of Garth Hudson's keyboards and Helm's juke-joint attack. But Robertson's stories truly come to life in Helm's man-of-the-soil growl, Rick Danko's high tenor and Richard Manuel's spectral croon. "Somebody once said he had a tear in his voice," Helm said of Manuel. "Richard had one of the richest, textured voices I'd ever heard." -
"Robertson, a Canadian, vividly depicted the Civil War-era South in this moving dirge. 'I remember taking him to the library so he could research the history and geography,' said Levon Helm, the Band's only American, whose gritty vocal evoked the interior struggle of someone trying to make sense of a lost cause - like, in 1969, the war in Vietnam." - Rolling Stone
