The Byrds - Younger Than Yesterday download mp3 album

Younger Than Yesterday was somewhat overlooked at the time of its release during an intensely competitive era that found the Byrds on a commercial downslide. Time, however, has shown it to be the most durable of the Byrds' albums, with the exception of Mr. Tambourine Man. David Crosby, Roger McGuinn, and especially Chris Hillman come into their own as songwriters on an eclectic but focused set blending folk-rock, psychedelia, and early country-rock

Younger Than Yesterday is the fourth Byrds album, released February 6, 1967. It’s their first without founding member Gene Clark – as a result, bassist Chris Hillman steps up as a songwriter for the first time to fill the void. Meanwhile, David Crosby becomes frustrated with his role in the band and begins to act out, with mixed results. Due to this tension, the album is a fragmented mix of styles that seems to go in three different directions at once – McGuinn’s traditional folk rock, Crosby’s psychedelic experiments and Hillman’s proto-country rock.
Younger Than Yesterday is The Byrds' fourth album and was originally released in 1967. As on its predecessor, the album features elements of psychedelic rock like experimenting with new musical textures, including brass instruments and reverse tape effects. On the other hand the first country and western influences can be found on the album, being early indicators of the country rock direction the band would pursue on their later albums. Nowadays Younger Than Yesterday is considered one of The Byrds' finest albums
