In the interest of accuracy, we should probaby note that there's also more than a dollop of a Beatles influence in there as well, but let's not be picky. In any case, I'm sure long-time readers will agree that I was probably geneticallly engineered to dig it.
In the meantime, you can read a very interesting news story about the album over at the Saving Country Music website HERE. I should add that Altitude will be avilable for purchase -- including on vinyl, for the purists amongst us -- starting on May 19th.
Coming tomorrow: The best Byrds-inspired song ever written and sung by a member of a hostile alien race.
Yeah, that's right, you heard me. And a coveted PowerPop No-Prize© will be awarded to the first reader who knows what I'm talking about.

wow. what a great song...thanks!
To me, Chris Scruggs is the star of that record.
You've got me totally stumped by today's question.
Outside of "Andrew Gold's (Fraternal Order of the All)" - Somewhere in Space and Time - this maybe the best Byrds' track from 1966 I've never heard before, it's great! Is the rest of the album as good even if it doesn't necessarily sound like the Byrds?

Face it, Steve: You're a sucker for the twang of a 12-string. Nice song, though.
Hey Steve - If you like this new track, be certain to check out "Time Don't Wait" from Marty's 2017 album "Way Out West".
"Time Don't Wait" is cut from the same cloth as today's track which you have posted. Plus, it was co-written by Marty and none other than Gene Clark!
who wrote it?
amanita muscaria!!
