Unavailable for over 35 years, we're proud to present the first ever reissues of these monumental recordings in their original, highly-sought-after mono incarnations, cut from the original Columbia Records analog mono masters, with perfect artwork restoration and meticulously faithful mastering.
Lots of rock n roll with a touch of folk-rock this LP with it's members Gene Clark, Jim McGuinn, David Crosby and Cris Hillman in addition drummer Michel Clarke has it all.
"Two years after being hailed as America's answer to the Beatles, these folk-rock pioneers were unraveling, commercially and internally a situation Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman addressed with this album's rousing, ironic opener, "So You Want to Be a Rock 'N' Roll Star." David Crosby, whom McGuinn would later fire, contributed a ravishing noir ballad, "Everybody's Been Burned," and Hillman bloomed as a writer, simultaneously reviving the Byrds' early magic and foreshadowing their adventures in country rock with "Time Between." "My Back Pages," the obligatory Dylan cover, is the album's elegiac centerpiece." - www.rollingstone.com
