There’s only really space for the crap albums they released towards their latter incarnations – which is why folk have moved onto rediscovering later solo ventures like Cardiff Rose, If I Could Only Remember My Name & No Other. Which is cobblers, especially when you consider the alt country odes to a certain part of their career and the way books and reviews have appeared for less celebrated records like ‘The Notorious Byrd Brothers’ or ‘Untitled/Unissued’ in recent years. Yes…really – the band that’ve had several box sets, biographies and 33 1/3 books, a mass of compilations, everything reissued and bands citing them to buggery in the 80s and 90s are underrated and unsung. In this blog, McGee demonstrated that his finger is on the pulse by writing about the neglected status of The Byrds. It was quite amusing recently to read a blog on the Guardian Unlimited website from one Alan McGee, one of the men behind Creation records – a once celebrated indie label that later flogged itself to Sony.
