Gene Clark had gone, and bassist Chris Hillman suddenly emerged as a songwriter and singer, bringing country touches and a fresh melodic voice. Roger McGuinn's fascination with jazz, space and electronics was blooming, and David Crosby was pushing into stranger, dreamier territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star opens with a wry swipe at the pop machine, complete with screaming fans and a trumpet solo from Hugh Masekela, the first brass ever heard on a Byrds record. Have You Seen Her Face shows off Hillman's knack for a jangling hook, and C.T.A.-102 drifts off toward a distant quasar with oscillators and alien voices. Their reading of Bob Dylan's My Back Pages, which gave the album its title, ranks among the finest Dylan covers they ever cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a bridge between eras, with ringing twelve-string, psychedelic experiments and early hints of country rock all living under one roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCritics have come to rank it among the band's very best, and this bright pressing makes a fine excuse to hear why.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57269570830641,"sku":"8719262043992","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/The_Byrds-Younger_Than_Yesterday_Turquoise_Holland_Import.jpg?v=1793641200","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/the-byrds-younger-than-yesterday-turquoise-holland-import","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
