The Notorious Byrd Brothers - THE BYRDS

Excellent 1968 LP by The Byrds, encompassing a beautiful mix between country rock & psychadelia. Essential listening for those already in the know & a real find for those new to the Byrds or genre. Would love visitor's thoughts on this great record.... http://rapidshare.com/files/341079569/byrds_-_the_notorious_byrd_brothers.zip

  2. Oh yeah...this album right here is CLASSIC, a masterpiece. Its not underrated but somehow people just don't know about it. I first heard it when I was about 10, in the car as we were going up a mountain in gold country in northern california, on a fly fishing trip. There were pine trees every where and a river below and I just picture that scene every time I listen. It has an earthy feel to it so it was very fitting. Nothing compares.

  3. This was an all encompassing moment for me as a babe in the woods when this album first came out. I was a freshman in college, and still remember the very thought processes
