"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.

"Butterfly" is often hailed as their finest and most consistent, whereas "Evolution" suffers from being..."  [+]  Reply

"They probably did the blues better than any other glam rock hair band in the 80s. The follow up to this album was a straight up blues album but this one held on to the stadium glam of its predecessor Night Songs. This album encapsulates the band perfectly and is their best release."  Reply

""I think it was the first time I realized that I can change the world, or at least change the way you and my sister hit the clock on every tick just to see what happened. The time has really flown by I guess and it's hard to think of the way it might've been or remember very specifically the word..."  [+]  Reply
