MCGUINN, CLARK & HILLMAN - McGuinn, Clark & Hillman (Sealed) (CD)

The 1979 debut album for three founding Byrds members. After several solo albums from Gene Clark, and Roger McGuinn, and Chris Hillman being a part of the Souther-Hillman- Furay Band in the early seventies the former Byrds members teamed up again. Every track on this recording is excellent and is stamped with the individuality of McGuinn, Clarke and Hillman, but also benefits from lush and innovative production. Taken on a simple level it is a contemporary collection of country rock close to a 'best of' example of what the three artists could do. The album had a top 40 hit ("Don't You Write Her Off") and led to a successful tour through the United States and Europe.
