An absolute archive-grade, pristine collector's copy of the definitive 2003 double-disc "Legacy Edition" expansion of The Byrds' monumental 1968 country-rock masterpiece, "Sweetheart Of The Rodeo". This extensive reissue details the historical input of Gram Parsons alongside Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman, serving as an essential milestone for country-rock and Americana development.
This deluxe 2-CD compilation expands on the original master tape tracking sequence by packing in a massive array of unissued alternate vocal arrangements, rare session outtakes, and early material from The International Submarine Band. The set comes beautifully housed in a premium multi-panel fold-out card digipak sleeve and includes the original, thick 24-page full-color historical essay and photo booklet.
This entire copy is in spectacular, factory-fresh condition throughout and has never been played
