Da Boids Is Da Woid - Part IV

Younger Than Yesterday. Longer, too. Thirty-five tracks, mono and stereo, associated recordings, all from official releases. Proto-psych, Chris Hillman stepping up, Gary Usher producing, David Crosby being a pain in the ass - it seems sacrilege to say it, but Gene Clark is barely missed.

    Rare, but some Sixties groups had so many talented members that you could subtract a voice and writing talent like Clark, and ... get this! The Byrds were one of a few bands that proved fecund like dis.
    Thanks for the ongoing saga.

      ... and then there were three, of course - Crosby the horse's ass got himself kicked out, and the remaining trio went on to make their most perfect pop album - there is no better album than Notorious, by anyone, ever.

      Can never decide what the betterest elpee of all is, but Notorious is one of the suggestions I'd never dream of arguing with. And probably made that argument myself at one point or another. And probably rightly. Never ceases to never cease.

      There are albums "as good" - your choice here - but none better. A perfect work of (he)art.

    Excellent selection. How do I download the Byrds (and others) please?

    Sincerely, Robin, Moscow Russia

      You have to hunt for it. It's always a word or line of text in one of my comments. It should appear in blue, meaning a link. Here, it's my comment beginning "February".

    Re-up? I waited too long and now Uploadfiles is trying to make me pay for 'premium access.' Yeah, right.
