A great, underrated album by the ex-Byrds vocalist. I am going with "Because of You", though the different rendition of "One in a Hundred" (which appeared on Roadmaster) is also sparkling.

"Spanish Guitar". I don't think this is a particularly great album tho.

Oh man, I am so down with this. Thank you Buzza.

I'v been reassessing Two Sides To Every Story. Side 2 is classic.

sister moon is the one that really gets me

― buzza, Saturday, 23 March 2013 16:42 (thirteen years ago)

yeah this demos thing is great.

― tylerw, Saturday, 23 March 2013 22:43 (thirteen years ago)

Just got this. Absolutely phenomenal. If you think you'd like this, you definitely will.

― kornrulez6969, Saturday, 30 March 2013 22:58 (thirteen years ago)

it delivers. not going to say it's better than white light but it's an essential companion.

"The Virgin" is one of the most underrated things in his catalog. Would love to hear the demo of it.

― Naive Teen Idol, Sunday, 31 March 2013 01:01 (thirteen years ago)

I think i prefer several of the demo versions, where my love lies asleep is such a beauty

― buzza, Sunday, 31 March 2013 01:10 (thirteen years ago)

My only complaint is that With Tomorrow is only a minute long. But holy shit what a minute.

― kornrulez6969, Sunday, 31 March 2013 01:33 (thirteen years ago)

White Light is better on this.

― kornrulez6969, Sunday, 31 March 2013 01:35 (thirteen years ago)

yes

― buzza, Sunday, 31 March 2013 01:38 (thirteen years ago)

of the 3 "new" tunes i would rank

1. for no one - absolutely gorgeous, some nice picking by gene too!
2. jimmy christ - kinda short and fragment-like but still quite strong
3. please mr. freud - gene in ott dylan mode, goofy fun but probably will end up skipping this one most of the time

I can't believe the fidelity of this album. It's over 40 years old, recorded in some cabin and sounds perfect.
