              THE BYRDS

         Ballad Of Easy Rider 

                                         

...USA - 360 Sound Columbia - CS 9942

Original 1969 first pressing vinyl in beautiful clean condition... on the famously collected 360 Sound Columbia label of the sixties!

***STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER and with the rare first pressing "Jesus Is Just Alright" sticker on outside of shrink wrapper -- rare, because most folks took off the outer wrapper and there went the sticker too!

If Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde found Roger McGuinn having to re-create the Byrds after massive personnel turnovers (and not having an easy time of it), 1969's Ballad of Easy Rider was the album where the new lineup really hit its stride. Gracefully moving back and forth between serene folk-rock (the title cut, still one of McGuinn's most beautiful melodies), sure-footed rock & roll ("Jesus Is Just All Right"), heartfelt rural-rock ("Oil In My Lamp" and "Tulsa County"), and even a dash of R&B (the unexpectedly funky "Fido," which even features a percussion solo), Ballad of Easy Rider sounds confident and committed. The band sounds tight, self-assured, and fully in touch with the music's emotional palette, and Clarence White's guitar work is truly a pleasure to hear (if Roger McGuinn's fabled 12-string work seems to take a back seat to White's superb string bends, it is doubtful that any but the most fanatical fans would think to object). While not generally regarded as one of the group's major works, in retrospect this release stands alongside Untitled as the finest work of the Byrds' final period.
