Post-Notorious Byrd Bros. Jangle

Post by rickosound »

After Crosby left the Byrds, the Jangle sound was considerably less prominent on their recordings, but was still used on occasion. I only know a few of these songs, listed below. Does anyone know of others (not including live performances of Pre-Notorious Byrd Brothers songs)?

Later Jangley Songs:
"Things Will Be Better"
"Just A Season"
"Lazy Days"
"On Hundred Years From Now"
"Pretty Polly"
"You Got A Reputation"

Jesus is Just Alright was a jangle fest...

The Ric stayed in its case alot during the Gram Parsons era...Whe Clarence White and Gene Parsons joined, the band was trying to shake the LA top forty teenybopper image they had, and get some creditibilty as a progressive band...and the jangle became less emaphsized...the jangle was pretty 'pop' back then. Also Clarence was such an increwdible guitar player, thart McGuinn reverted to more a rhythm guitarist
