Category: Byrds

It ain’t as good as Cher’s version, babe.

With the blessed benediction of the Bard himself, The Byrds set out to change the shape of American rock music.

[Kronomyth 2.9] Sad-Eyed Lady in the Sky with Diamonds.

[Kronomyth 3.0] Four, the Byrds.

[Kronomyth 4.0] The Third Dimension.

[Kronomyth 5.0] Four Byrds A-Calling.

[Kronomyth 6.0] The Fall of the House of Usher.

Episode seven, in which Gram Parsons temporarily takes over the Byrds and singlehandedly invents country-rock. Think Bob Dylan’s electric revelation, but in reverse.

[Kronomyth 8.0] Like a clock during a thunderstorm.

The Byrds apply their patented Dylan gilding to a Goffin/King song that goes down easy.

[Kronomyth 9.0] Borne to be mild.
