Also, maybe a typo in "phrased": did he write "phased", as in what Beefheart called "psychedelic Bromo-Seltzer"? Either word is appropriate, though.

There are some good songs on Dr Byrds but it's by no means a lost classic. My favorite late-period Byrds album is easily Ballad of Easy Rider.

Wow, thanks! Ever heard an album by them??
Ah, the Cros as 60s songwriter; maybe I should make a Spotify playlist...reminds me, "Everybody's Been Burned" was the one that got stuck in my head, when I briefly owned Younger Than Yesterday in high school. Good album?

Incredible album! Other than Mind Gardens of course. Definitely look for the version with bonus tracks. Lady Friend is possibly Crosby's greatest song...

the version with bonus tracks actually includes 3 different versions of "Mind Gardens"! (but it's worth it for "Lady Friend" alone)
