The Byrds “Younger Than Yesterday” Vinyl Album (1967) “untested” Sold as Seen - A1 : B1

“Younger Than Yesterday” is the fourth studio album by the American rock band the Byrds, released on February 6, 1967, by Columbia Records.

It saw the band continuing to integrate elements of psychedelia and jazz into their music, a process they had begun on their previous album, Fifth Dimension.

In addition, the album captured the band and record producer Gary Usher experimenting with new musical textures, including brass instruments, reverse tape effects and an electronic oscillator.
The band's original five-piece lineup consisted of McGuinn (lead guitar, vocals), Gene Clark (tambourine, vocals), David Crosby (rhythm guitar, vocals), Michael Clarke (drums), and Chris Hillman (bass guitar, vocals).

In early 1966, Clark left due to anxiety and his increasing isolation within the group.

The Byrds continued as a quartet until late 1967, when Crosby and Clarke departed.

McGuinn and Hillman recruited new members, including country rock pioneer Gram Parsons, but by late 1968, Hillman and Parsons had also left the band.

McGuinn rebuilt a new version of the Byrds that featured guitarist Clarence White among others.

McGuinn disbanded that iteration of the band in early 1973 to make way for a reunion of the original quintet.

The Byrds released their final album in March 1973, with the reunited group disbanding later that year.

Several members of the Byrds went on to successful careers as solo artists or as members of such groups as Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, the Flying Burrito Brothers, McGuinn, Clark & Hillman, and the Desert Rose Band.

In 1991, the Byrds were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in a ceremony that saw the five original members perform together for the last time.

Gene Clark died of a heart attack later that year, while Michael Clarke died of liver failure in 1993. Crosby died in 2023.

McGuinn and Hillman remain musically active.

This album is untested and sold as seen! After a visual inspection there seems to be no visible scratches and nothing that would effect playback. Overall looks like the vinyl is in excellent condition but have listed as Very Good and a low starting bid.

The cover a tiny bit of wear on the edges the main body is a little scuffed due to its age but overall it’s in incredibly good condition for its age.
