19. All I Have Are Memories
In 1968, David Crosby was replaced in The Byrds by Gram Parsons. And although Parsons would be in the band for only 4 months, the effect was staggering. Sweetheart Of The Rodeo is the last great Byrds album, a move head first into country music. Parsons changed everything about the band, and while he was there, it was a great change. In typical Byrds fashion, the album opens and closes with Dylan covers...but what happens in between is music that changed the interraction between country and rock. A masterpiece on its own, Sweetheart is a must have.
If you have an 11 song version, however, toss it out and go get the 1997 reissue. This version contains not only the original album, but 8 must have bonus tracks. The first 3 are outtakes...the next 4 are versions of sons on the album with Parsons on lead vocals, versions not released anywhere else. This package also includes perfect song by song liner notes, and the history of Parson's short but important stay in the band (most of his vocal work was redone by Roger McGuinn after Parson's old record company threatened to sue Columbia because they claimed he was still under contract). Parsons left soon after, and not long after that, Chris Hillman was gone as well, effectively ending The Byrds as a great band.
Anyway...this is an album you must have. [First added to this chart: 02/21/2025]

The second album by The Byrds showed that they were not completely reliant on Bob Dylan for material (only two tracks by Dylan appear), or on Gene Clark, who contributed only three songs. Roger McGuinn and David Crosby were stretching their writing wings here, and the band also still relied on cover material a lot. The title track may have been the birth of Christian rock: it’s part Pete Seeger and part taken straight from the bible.
Not as strong an effort as their debut, and not as good as future releases, Turn! Turn! Turn! Still has some great moments. The harmonies are great throughout, and although there were a lot of tensions (Gene Clark was about to leave the band, and Crosby felt his input to the band was being ignored), there is also much of what made their debut a success. The band would begin to slowly move in different directions after this, due in large part to major personnel changes, but their early material, this included, is still a big part of where music was going in the mid to late 60’s. Not their best, but still a vital part of their early output. [First added to this chart: 05/03/2015]
