The Byrds/NY, USA 1973

Their last live performance as original members in 1973, on February 10th at Kernel University in New York, was recorded as a soundboarded sound source for broadcasting. When they debuted in 1965, they went from a folk-rock approach to a country-oriented, and then a slightly psychedelic sound, and this final live show was the culmination of their efforts. The album opens with "Lover Of The Bayou", and centering on the representative songs up to that point, "Mr. Tambourine Man" is played twice, an acoustic version and an electric version, which is a deeply emotional place. And the last encore is “Roll Over Beethoven”, which concludes with rock and roll, a must-listen memorial item for old fans. 01. Tuning Intro / 02. Lover Of The Bayou / 03. Take A Whiff On Me / 04.
