A proposito di questo titolo

The Byrds-The Notorious Byrd Brothers (Columbia Records)

Release Date: January 15, 1968 (U.S.)

Released in January 1968, The Notorious Byrd Brothers captures the Byrds at a moment of collapse and creative peak. Recorded amid firings, walkouts, and heavy reliance on session musicians, the album paradoxically emerges as one of their most unified statements. It fuses folk-rock roots with psychedelia, country textures, baroque pop, and early electronic experimentation, including one of rock’s first Moog synthesizer appearances. Despite its brief runtime, the record feels dense and adventurous, featuring complex time signatures, inventive studio effects, and luminous harmonies. Songs like “Draft Morning,” “Wasn’t Born to Follow,” and “Space Odyssey” balance introspection, social unease, and cosmic curiosity. Initially modest in commercial impact, the album’s reputation has grown steadily, now widely regarded as a defining work that documents a band transforming instability into lasting artistic innovation. (S5-Ep2)
