'''''Men from Earth''''' is the fourth album by American [[country rock]] band [[The Ozark Mountain Daredevils]]. Founding band member [[Randle Chowning]] left to go solo after ''[[The Car Over The Lake Album]]'' and was replaced by Rune Walle in time for "Men From Earth". The album includes a pair of standout Larry Lee tunes, the romantic "You Know Like I Know" and the hard-country "Homemade Wine". As their previous album had contained an EP called ''[[The Little Red Record]]'', this release featured the even rarer '' The Little Red Record 2'' that contained two additional songs: "Roscoe's Rule" and "A Dollar's Worth Of Regular". These two tracks were included in the 2002 CD release of the album, along with "Better Days", which had only been released as the B side of their "Jackie Blue" single in late 1974.
