Requiem For The Timeless Vol. 2

John Rogan's new book just landed in my mailbox minutes ago...weeks of good reading ahead...

Gene Clark Sings For You...or does he?

Our regular visitor (and long time pen- and cyber friend) Mike M. from England has just spotted on an upcoming release list that on October 13th Omnivore Records are releasing an album titled 'Gene Clark Sings For You' - the elusive recordings hopefully...but seeing is believing.

Update 2017/07/28:

Our visitor J.P.M. asked Omnivore about it. Here's their reply:

 "We do not have anything scheduled, so I’m not sure how (or where) that information would have originated from. May I ask where you heard about it?"

Update 2017/08/02:

However, a person very well known in Byrds cirles says...


"The GCSFY is coming out I believe before the end of the year. I believe there may also be bonus tracks."

Huge Byrds Collection For Sale

Byrds Flyght is parting with its huge collection of Byrds and Byrds-related items (records, reel-to-reel tapes, cassette tapes, CDs, CDRs, DVD, DVDrs, VHS video tapes, posters, books, magazines, etc…).

As far as records and CDs are concerned, we have a near-complete collection of every Byrds album release (official and unofficial) as well as every solo or group album release by the 11 ex-members and every participation by the 11 ex-members in other artists’ albums (except for recordings by and with David Crosby – we only have a few by him). We also have many 7’’ singles and E.P.s. Most of what we have can be viewed on Byrds Flyght’s pages.

So now is the time to get this rare item that you’ve been searching for for decades. Send an e-mail to Byrds Flyght at

byrdsflyght@skynet.be

with details of what you’re looking for, as well as the maximum price (including shipping) you’re willing to pay to get it. No funny low prices please. Serious offers only.

We will answer every e-mail, but of course we often have one copy only of each item. So don’t be disappointed if the answer is negative. If so, it’s either because the item has already been sold or because your offer doesn’t reach our own estimated value price. In the latter case, we will tell you so and give you a second chance to make a higher offer.
