Alright, some folks are checking out some of the alt Byrds albums that I've done..but instead of going into the original posts...and then maybe in a couple of days some others...here's the deal I'm proposing. Call it the box set deal. In this here post you get a chance to snap up the entire Byrds Alt Album Series of the One Buck Guy plus the companion album Twilight. That's six alt albums, covering the period from Sweetheart Of The Radio onwards to the end of The Byrds with the self-titled Asylum album in 1973. One Hundred Years From Now, the Sweetheart Alt, now has the correct, Farq-ised artwork. And of course, as virtual liner notes, you have lots of reading material in the original posts to go along with listening to the albums.
So, what a deal, right?! (Especially for Newbies around here). Get the entire alt Byrds library in one fell swoop. And make OBG's download link-renewing life easier, also in one fell swoop. Everybody wins! So, grab those Byrds and fly away...
PS: So those last days I have been busy updating download links for old posts, but new music isn't far behind, promised! Be back tomorrow for music involving a British band named after their rhythm section...

Hi. Big thanks for this. Many thanks!!! I'm a big fan of that sun soaked dusty sunset high on peyote Americana vibe. Especially being in the cold grey miserable UK. I've never delved too deep into Byrdland. Having read the book Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon, it put a halt to my mental cruises down Laurel Canyon
ReplyDeleteBut, that said, let's just enjoy the music. This looks REALLY cool so thanks again...time to be hitting that dusty road.
One last thang. I know Neil Young is waaasy over represented on many blogs (with good reason) but I really highly rate your comps so any Neil in the pipelin? I know, I know I'm a sad Neil Nerd...
Hi Mytic,
Deletewell, a couple of months ago I gathered stuff to make my own version of Lucky Thirteen, meaning a real best of of his Geffen Years, because while a lot of it isn't great, there's some diamonds there; But then Uncle Neil released his Archives Vol. III with a ton of unreleased stuff, leading to questions of putting this stuff in or not, and so finally I put the thing on hold. Might get back to it at some point...
Hmmm. An alternative Lucky Thirteen. Lots to choose from... Would probably be a great double album now with Archives Volume 3. ?!! I put together a Neil only live album of the '74 material with CSN. That was cool
ReplyDeleteHeck. If I can find it though. I did also use Ai to replace Neil's vocals with Kurt Cobain
It's was eerily weird....The version of Music Arcade from Broken Arrow worked really well but Ai vocals are a bit like necromancy. Raising the dead. It's not really cool.
