Younger Than Yesterday

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
Four of the five original Byrds were aboard for this folk-rock landmark. Within months of its release in the summer of 1967, David Crosby would move on and the group would enter a permanent period of flux. Younger Than Yesterday, however, finds songwriters Crosby, Roger McGuinn, and Chris Hillman prodding one another with varied but complementary triumphs. "My Back Pages" is one of their best Dylan covers (and the Byrds had plenty of them), while "So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star" (written as a jab at the Monkees) represents two minutes of compressed pop cynicism that's as valid today as it was when it hit the airwaves. --Steven Stolder

4 out of 5 stars 4 1/2 stars........2007-03-19

one of my three favorite byrds albums (the other two being "mr tambourine man" and "the notorious byrd brothers"), this is like a crossroads for all the byrds leanings in sound. the 12-string guitar is still present, the heavy psychedelia is in full bloom, and there are touches of country shadings. all in all, though, this is their most hippy oriented outting (the notorious byrd brothers album does give it a run for its money), with all the psychedelic trappings present, including reversed tapes and all that jazz. the songs are top notch, and the whole recording has a fresh playful quality that time has not diminished. this album is a must for all fans of 60's music, and highly recommended to all lovers of pop/folk/rock in general. the remasterd version is highly preferrable in sound to the first cd version, so buyer beware. the six bonus cuts could well have been left off. they add nothing to impact of the original 11 cuts.

5 out of 5 stars Just to make one point..........2007-01-22

If you read anything about the song So You Want To Be A Rock and Roll Star - including here - you'll see the claim that the song is about The Monkees, usually in a dismissive tone. It is true that one of the band members has been quoted as saying that he was thinking about The Monkees at the time. However, a simple listen to the lyrics once through would tell you otherwise. The song is about the rapid rise to stardom available to ALL bands at the time. In fact, I don't see how it could be anything other than a reflection of the Byrds own experience, screaming girls and all. There's certainly nothing in the song about television shows, or not writing your own songs, or any other criticism of the Monkees. And anyway, what's wrong with The Monks? They had great songwriters and great production, along with damn good vocalists.
While I'm at it, this is a great album. I was just a bit too young to anything more than the singles that got played on Top 40 radio, and they were gone before I started buying records. It was obviously my loss - this was a stellar band.

5 out of 5 stars Byrd Changes!.......2007-01-06

This, the fourth album from the Byrds, is often regarded as their strongest. This is mostly a matter of taste and opinion, but considering that most Byrds albums are great and near-masterpieces, it's not really that interesting if a particular is hailed as the best, the second best or third best.

This is a great album and an intersting one in several respects. For the first time the Byrds made an album without contributions from their original main-songwriter, Gene Clark. Clark had already left the band after the second album, but he is actually featured on "Fifth Dimension" as song-writer and possibly also playing on some tracks.

His absence gave place for a very interesting rise of bass-player Chris Hillman, who suddenly became the most prolific song-writer of the Byrds. Contributing four first-class songs, and four co-written with McGuinn ( 2 of them bonus-tracks ) his importance on his album obviously is immense.

"Have You Seen Her Face" was even chosen as a single, and though it did not fare very well (#74), it's one among many standouts on the album. Great guitars and vocals. "Time Between" is just as strong, and interestingly featuring future Byrd-member Clarence White on his easily recognizeable guitar. He's also featured on the short but nice "The Girl With No Name"

On the Beatles inspired "Thoughts and Words" McGuinn delivers some great psychedelic guitar-licks. Hilmann sing lead on his own songs and Crosby is delivering some breathtaking high pitch harmony vocals.

David Crosby is also showing strengths as a song-writer. Whereas Hillman's songs are mostly up-beat, Crosby's are mid-tempo or ballads. Strongest songs here from Crosby are "Everybody's Been Burned" and "Renaissance Fair" ( co-written with McGuinn). He also delivers the album only miss, the atonal time-piece "Mind Gardens".

Vocally usual lead-vocalist Roger McGuinn is up-front on the hit-singles ( #29 & #30 ) "So You Want to Be a Rock'n Roll Star" and Bob Dylan's "My Back Pages". Both great tracks; the former a satirical comment to the music-industry and the latter is classic Byrds with 12-strings and out-standing vocals.

The bonus-track are mostly nice additions. Crosby's "It Happens Each Day" would have been a nice swop for the weak "Mind Gardens".

The rare B-side "Don't Make Waves" is interesting though unsignificant. The other B-side "Old John Robertson" is much better. An different version was included on the band's next album "The Notorious Byrd Brothers".

Crosby's flop A-side "Lady Friend" does not really sound like anything the Byrds recorded before. Big, slightly chaotic production. Some fans consider the song an over-looked masterpiece. At any rate, the album as a whole is one the greatest and most important records that was released in 1967.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome introduction to all the Byrds' eras at once.......2006-10-27

I personally am a relatively new Byrds fan - I'm pretty sure I don't like most of the stuff after this album (country-rock was never really my thing anyway), but this album is absolutely amazing! While I agree that maybe it wasn't the most radical statement of 1967 by any stretch of the imagination, it was certainly one of the most consistently great albums of the year and the decade, and for that reason I'd also say it's also one of the most underrated.

Personally I've never been a David Crosby, but I actually like all of his songs here, even "Mind Gardens," which is a bit hippy-drippy, but not bad at all. In fact I think the album benefits from its presence - it's weirdness adds diversity to the album, as does "C.T.A.-102," which would otherwise be a good but indistinguishable song without the whooshes and alien voices. "Renaissance Fair" is also a hippy-drippy timepiece lyrically, but it's also a really great song - the guitars manage to be atonal and melodic at the same time, which is a difficult effect to describe.

I like "Why" a lot, too - it highlights the most direct connections between the Byrds and their more punk-influenced power pop followers in the late 70s, 80s and 90s - although I'm interested to hear that there is a better version out there. Is it available anywhere?

To be cliche, the cream of the crop is "So You Want To Be A Rock N' Roll Star," where the verse predicts, strangely, Can and Talking Heads' polyrhythmic textures, world percussion and odd time signature while being a great classic Byrds song, awesome psych sound effects (crowd screaming cutting through the mix) and having a great trumpet part at the same time. Had the whole album had songs as unprecedented as this one, the album might have been a VERY radical statement. Not that any of the songs are slack at all, but it makes me wonder what would have unleashed had they not broken up.

I love "Thoughts and Words," although I question if they couldn't have written a slightly less clashing/forced sounding chorus, which seems awkward next to the haunting, rolling guitars of the verse. The backwards tapes are awesome, by the way. "My Back Pages" is also awesome, especially the alternate take, where the Leslie really fleshes the sound out, making it more expansive where the original feels a slight bit anemic. "Everybody's Been Burned" is haunting, beautiful and wistful in a Nick Drake sort of way - along with "Lady Friend" probably the only two songs by Crosby I can say I really love.

The country rock tracks are my least favorite on the album, but even they are top-notch for the genre. I already mentioned I'm not a huge fan of the genre (at least, not up until No Depression alt-country - but I absolutely loathe the Eagles and am not a big CSN fan either), but I still don't skip these songs, which speaks to their strength.

I haven't purchased the other early albums yet (soon I will) - so I won't pretend to be a Byrds expert enough to say this is their best or not. But I will say it is not only a great introduction to new Byrds fans, as all of the bands eras (folk-rock, psychedelia and country-rock) are present in one album with some of the strongest songwriting and playing in any of these genres. Amazing and underrated.

5 out of 5 stars The Byrds Had Never Flown Higher Than In '67.......2006-06-04

The thing that's most impressive about the Byrds' best album - namely "Younger than Yesterday" - is that both Hillman and Crosby are finally afforded a greater opportunity to strut their stuff as up-and-coming singer/songwriters rather than continuing to play reluctant sessionman roles to group leader McGuinn. In other words, a more "democratic" approach is employed on this stellar 1967 document ...

The best cases in point include the irresistable harmonies of Hillman's "Have You Seen Her Face" and his melodic country-rocker "Time Between" as well as Crosby's wistful "Everybody's Been Burned" (this reviewer's favorite Crosby composition, by the way) and HIS dreamy yet up-tempo "Renaissance Fair." Incidentally, two more excellent Crosby tunes are added to the reissue - the ethereal "It Happens Each Day" and the melodically rollicking "Lady Friend." It does seems rather strange that the latter song features a Boyce-and-Hart-style horn section that nonetheless works brillantly - even for a Crosby composition!

As for McGuinn, his satiric opener "So You Want To Be A Rock And Roll Star" (which features Good Ol' "Grazin' In The Grass" Himself, Mr. Hugh Masakela on brass) and the hard-rocking "Why?" are first-rate, as is the inclusion of another Dylan classic ("My Back Pages"), also sung by McGuinn. Unfortunately, though, the continuing efforts of each band member to have their own writings included on subsequent albums would eventually trigger the band's legendarily acrimonious break-up (especially on "The Notorious Byrd Brothers"). If all this is too painful to even think about, then stick with Good Ol' YTY - one of The Byrds' (and 1967's) finest pop releases. CIAO ...

                1 out of 5 stars One brilliant fluke-track and the rest is crap.......2005-06-03

                I'LL KEEP ON TRYING is yer quintessential 1960s mod-a-go-go tune. It is a work of cheezadelic genius. Unfortunately, the rest of this record is composed of boring-as-hell surf-crap. It really hurt me to find out The Ugly Truth about The Arkay IV. And it hurts me to write this about them. Because I'LL KEEP ON TRYING is so frigging brilliant. With its heart-rending final chord. But that track is completely atypical. Both in style and in quality.
