John York Concerts

JOHN YORK is one of a small handful of musicians alive today who was one a member of the legendary 60s folk-rock band, The Byrds. But, he’s also played and toured with Sir Douglas Quintet, the Mamas and the Papas and Johnny Rivers. He has most recently recorded and toured with Barry McGuire along with his own band known as The Jangle Brothers featuring Chad Watson and Billy Darnell. Seeing York in concert is not only bringing classic folk-rock songs alive, but making them urgent and relevant to today.

New STARBYRD CD to be released on November 7th.

The new Starbyrd CD “Stardust” will be out on Nov. 7th.

The album features 12 brand new original songs rich in the jingle jangle sound of the 12-string Rickenbacker guitar. 

The release of the album is scheduled for November 7th, 2016.  

Extract from the liner notes written by "Jangle On" columnist Eric Sorensen: 

“Stardust is the title of the latest offering of original tunes from the ever prolific German singer/songwriter Horst-Peter Schmidt.  Also quite appropriately, Stardust continues to carry the folk-rock torch from its 60s origins to the present. The majority of the songs on Stardust are mid-tempo tunes that feature Schmidt’s chiming Rickenbacker 370RM – with the snap, crackle and pop that only this guitar’s internal compressor can generate.  Starbyrd music continues to be linked to influential folk-rock predecessors like the Byrds and Roger McGuinn, as well as other 60s artists.[…]”

Sierra Records GENE CLARK BOX SET Update

Sierra Records will officially release Gene Clark-The Lost Studio Sessions 1964-1982 on November 17, 2016, on what would have been Gene Clark's 72nd birthday. The album will be released on audiophile hybrid SACD (SACD 7001-playable on standard CD players as well) and 2 LP vinyl  (SHF 1002) in the highest possible audio quality available today.  On  November 1, 2016, Sierra Records will also celebrate it's 45th Anniversary!

All pre-release, advance orders received will be shipped prior to that date.   Further updates with more specific shipping details will be announced through our newsletter and social media sites.   

There will be a price increase for any NEW orders after the shipping date as follows:  

Ultimate Limited Edition: $94.98
Hybrid SACD: $34.98
2 LP vinyl set: $45.98
(plus shipping and handling) 

All current orders and those placed up through the actually shipping date will not be affected by this price increase, those prices will only take effect on NEW orders once the shipping begins.

In the meantime, here are few pictures below of the work in progress, the actual copper masters for the vinyl pressing and the test pressings from those masters.  

I do appreciate the Gene Clark fans' passion for his music.  

I understand your possible concern but please know that as soon as there are any updates, I will communicate that to everyone that has ordered. Again, please stick with us; your patience will be rewarded when you hear the finished product.  

Best personal regards,
