From: Pre-AM Soundboard Master Reels (REMASTERED)

Master Reels > CDR > Flac

In the mid to late 1970's, I attended the American University and was a student disc jockey at both the am & fm campus stations a few years after this show occurred. Just as a matter of fact, this show was broadcast on the low frequency am station.....not the fm station.....which explains the reason why it lacks some dynamic range. Yet it is a great slice of history, and a great period for The Byrds.

At the present time (and for the last 31 years), I have had possession of the master 12" reels this was recorded on (don't ask how I got them). This version is, by far, the best version possible in circulation.
