Our Take

Ah, the BYRDS Original Album Classics collection. A box set so cheery and nostalgic, it's like stumbling upon a hidden treasure in your grandma's attic. This quintet of albums encapsulates the essence of 1960s folk rock, with a twangy, jangly sound that's as comforting as a warm cuppa on a rainy day.

The set kicks off with "Mr. Tambourine Man," the BYRDS' debut album that catapulted them into the spotlight with their infectious harmonies and shimmering guitars. It's a classic that still sounds fresh all these years later, like a vintage dress that never goes out of style.

Next up is "Turn! Turn! Turn!," a more mature offering that solidifies the band's place in music history. The title track, with its timeless message of unity and peace, is a standout moment that still resonates today.

"5D" sees the BYRDS experimenting with psychedelic sounds and pushing the boundaries of their folk rock sound. It's a trippy journey that showcases their versatility and creativity.

"Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde" and "The Ballad of Easy Rider" round out the set, showing the band's evolution and growth as artists. Each album has its own unique charm and highlights the BYRDS' incredible songwriting and musicianship.

In conclusion, the BYRDS Original Album Classics box set is a must-have for any fan of 1960s rock music. It's a trip down memory lane that never gets old, just like a timeless classic that's always worth revisiting. So grab a cuppa, put on your favourite record, and let the BYRDS take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
