2019 was a magical year as legendary Byrds co-founders Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman joined forces with superstar Marty Stuart to celebrate 50 years of The Byrds' "Sweetheart Of The Rodeo" album. During their sold-out tour, several of the shows were taped and preserved and now Friday Music is very pleased to announce the deluxe double LP set of Sweetheart Of The Rodeo - 50th Anniversary -Live.
All the great songs from the epic 1968 release are now presented live and this first-time-ever release includes more Byrds classics like "Mr. Tamborine Man," "Turn Turn Turn" and a rare one-time-only tour performance of "Eight Miles High."
This album is impeccably mastered for vinyl by longtime Byrds fan and friend Joe Reagoso, and will be pressed for the first time anywhere on double translucent gold vinyl in a stunning gatefold cover, featuring the rare Jo Mora artwork elements from the 1968 Byrds masterwork, coupled with new interview and liner notes with Roger, Chris and Marty. Truly a sensational recording and a stellar document of one of the greatest tours of our time.
Record Store Day titles are strictly limited and non-returnable.
