Take flight with the ultimate American rock band!
Modern American rock starts here. When the Byrds initially took flight in Los Angles in 1964 the British Invasion, launched earlier that year on these shores by the Beatles, followed closely by the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, the Animals and numerous others, held the rock world in its sway. But the Byrds – former folk, country and bluegrass musicians with a keen ear for the new, electrified sounds (as well as the words and music of Bob Dylan) – changed all that. The jangly timbres of Jim (later Roger) McGuinn’s 12-string guitar, and the ethereal three-part harmonies of McGuinn, David Crosby and Gene Clark gave the U.S. its own strong contender for pop primacy. The Byrd's first five classic albums are collected in full on vinyl in this box set. All LP’s are exact replicas of the original classic albums and have been remastered for incredible sound and sourced from the original master tapes. Like many innovators, the Byrds were never satisfied merely to repeat themselves. Consequently, these five albums present not one musical approach, but several: the groundbreaking, chart-topping folk-rockers of Mr. Tambourine Man and Turn! Turn! Turn! fame; the psychedelic, raga-rocking space cadets who gave us “Eight Miles High” and “5D” on Fifth Dimension; the eclectic musical styles of Younger Than Yesterday and the country-rock outfit who made the pioneering Notorious Byrd Brothers album. Music has seldom sounded better than this.
