"Seminal cd from back when. Don't think I've ever heard it before, it's one of those you never quite got around to picking up.

"Along with “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” this album is the most country-influeced album in the Byrds catalogue. But whereas “Sweetheart” tends to lean on classical country, “Ballad of Easy Rider” shows a much broader approach.
