New "Byrds" podcast by Sid Griffin


Sid Griffin (The Long Ryders / The Coal Porters) has made a new podcast available.

It’s a 90+ minutes “Byrds Special”.

From Sid Griffin’s website:

“The 37th Sid Griffin Podcast is ready to be heard and enjoyed. No holiday theme this year as Sid has done in past podcasts but…get ready for a surprise…he HAS done an entire show devoted to his fave act, The Byrds.

No hits, of course, but outtakes, demos, and rare tracks not even the most devoted Byrd fan has heard. We are talking tunes even the late great Johnny Rogan never heard.”

You can listen to the podcast on various platforms; details here:
