1001 Albums Summary

I’d never heard this before and I have to admit I loved it!!!

wait were they actually brothers ? the brothers byrd? update: no. haha so silly that I would think that! the wiki for this is wild though: The recording of The Notorious Byrd Brothers, during the latter half of 1967, was marked by severe internal dissolution and acrimony.[4] The Byrds began the recording sessions as a four-piece band, consisting of Roger McGuinn, David Crosby, Chris Hillman, and Michael Clarke—the same line-up that had recorded their two previous albums.[17] By the time of the album's release, however, only McGuinn and Hillman remained in the group.[5] The first line-up change occurred when drummer Michael Clarke quit the sessions after having played on several songs, over disputes with Crosby and the other band members over his playing ability and his apparent dissatisfaction with the material the three songwriting members of the band were providing.[18][19] Though he remained a band member and continued to honor his live concert commitments with the group, Clarke was temporarily replaced in the studio by noted session drummers Jim Gordon and Hal Blaine.[18][19] this has got to be a 5!!!! I love the birds, I love wasn't born to follow, I love this whole album :) sorry to the boys that there was so much drama – worth it babies!!!! okay now that I've finished the album, the end kind of loses it a bit but I don't care. still a 5!
