Comments on: The Byrds “Ballad Of Easy Rider” http://therisingstorm.net/the-byrds-ballad-of-easy-rider/ | therisingstorm.net Wed, 10 Mar 2010 05:53:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: dk http://therisingstorm.net/the-byrds-ballad-of-easy-rider/comment-page-1/#comment-61157 dk Sat, 20 Jun 2009 15:58:42 +0000 http://therisingstorm.net/?p=3423#comment-61157 Thanks for this post - this album has been collecting dust in my collection for some time. Sounds like it's time to pull it out and give it a whirl. The live LP of the 2LP Untitled is pretty solid proof that the latter day Byrds brought it in concert. The 'Eight Miles High' on there is absolutely smokin'. The recent release Live At The Royal Albert Hall 1971 is also convincing evidence that Clarence White knew what he was doing on guitar. The late model Byrds don't get the props, but they were good. I also have to give a shout out to The Notorious Byrd Brothers, perhaps my favorite album in a loaded catalog...

Easy Rider itself definitely rates up there for me in the Byrds catalog.
