Performer Notes

Originally released as a 2 LP set.
Personnel: David Crosby, Gene Clark, Gram Parsons, Roger McGuinn (vocals, guitar); Chris Hillman (vocals); Michael Clark (drums).
Liner Note Authors: Dave Swaney; Patrick Humphries.
The two dozen tracks on this single-disc survey of the Byrds include all the obvious singles like "Mr. Tambourine Man," "Turn! Turn! Turn!," and "Eight Miles High" as well as some key album tracks like Gram Parsons' lovely "Hickory Wind" and the unsung psychedelic gem "I See You," making this an OK, if somewhat random, survey of an interesting and influential pop band. ~ Steve Leggett

Professional Reviews

Q (pp.120-121) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[With] more than enough transcendent moments to place The Byrds in the most exalted company, as well as giving newcomers reason to investigate further."
