I liked this alright. Weird instrumentation/playing on the guitars pretty often, but I thought it was good. 3.49/5

I kind of always think of The Byrds as the band that made Bob Dylan songs actually sound good. I like their blend of folk rock and psychedelia, and this album has got great examples of that. Mr. Spaceman is a fantastic folk-rock song, and 8 Miles High has one of the most iconic guitar intro lines. The rest of the album was decent, though the two hits mentioned resonated the most with me.
Some of this sounds lame to me, while some of it sounds almost as vital as it was at the time. Real folk was definitely better, but the more exciting guitar tracks were pretty cool, would have liked more of that. C
