The two hits that anchored the Lp were pretty great. So You Wanna Be A Rock N Roll Star blasted out of radio speakers in 1967 sounding unlike anything else with a strong latin back beat, great lyrics, and a killer groove. The other major hit off the album was a cover of Bob Dylans My Back Pages. This was one of their best Dylan covers yet and had a trademark, classic McGuinn twelve-string guitar solo. Crosby offered up one of his best songs, Everybodys Been Burned, a masterpiece of psychedelic folk-rock highlighted by his exquisite, crooning hippie vocals and drowsy acid guitar work. C.T.A. 102, a track that must've sounded way-outthere when this album was released in 1967, has trippy space-age sound effects and a nifty little hook. Renaissance Fair was another Crosby psychedelic folk-rocker with strong acid imagery and shifting time signatures plus some more fine 12-string from McGuinn. McGuinn and Crosby contributed great material to Younger Than Yesterday, though it is Hillman's contributions, perhaps, that have stood the sands of time best. Hillman's Have You Seen Her Face, Time Between, Thoughts and Words, and The Girl With No Name are all superb songs. Have You Seen Her Face saw the Byrds in garage mode while Thoughts and Words was one of their best straight-up psych numbers. Prior to Younger Than Yesterday the Byrds had flirted with a kind of proto country-rock sound on Mr. Spaceman and Satisfied Mind. With Time Between and The Girl With No Name, that flirtation came to fruition. Hillman had played in bluegrass bands prior to the Byrds, so the said experiments were just an extension of his roots - no gimmicks, completely genuine stuff here. Both tracks rock pretty nicely and feature some fine guitar work by Byrd-in-waiting Clarence White. Time Between and Girl With No Name do not have a Nashville sound but still was a purer fusion than anything else they have done ever since. The album ended with McGuinn's Why, a great rocker with a riveting space guitar solo.
