“One thing that struck me about this one, it's called 'Byrdmaniax.' When I hear the Byrds come out of my speakers, to this day I become a little kid again. Their music had the power to transport me from my bedroom in Mississippi to California, way before I ever got here.”Watch this moment
Byrdmaniax
The Byrds
Byrdmaniax is the tenth album by the American rock band the Byrds. It was released in June 1971 on Columbia Records at a time of renewed commercial and critical success for the band, due to the positive reception that their two previous albums, Ballad of Easy Rider and (Untitled), had received. The album was the second by the Byrds to feature the Roger McGuinn, Clarence White, Gene Parsons, and Skip Battin line-up of the band and was mostly recorded in early 1971, while the band were in the midst of an exhausting tour schedule.
