I finally got a chance to listen to all three records, and once again I'm impressed--mostly with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. What a tight band! As a unit with Tom Petty they are of course legendary by now, but they also show what a fine backup band they are, not only with McGuinn on some of his Byrds songs but also with Dylan. Dylan must not be that easy to play with, especially as his singing is often hard to follow, but they do the job anyway. They are particularly good on the Señor, Shelter From the Storm and Tangled up in Blue (Dylan's voice is also more tolerable on those songs and a few others). I remember reading once that Dylan wanted to use the later Byrds as a backup band but McGuinn nixed the idea. So here we have McGuinn as an opening act for Dylan and Tom Petty, who was influenced by McGuinn, and it is his band which does the backup duties. I wonder what the Byrds would have sounded like backing up Dylan on a concert tour? Thanks for this upload, R--B.

Steve, thanks for your comment.

As to the Dylan/Byrds projected collaboration, I found the story about that as told by McGuinn on one of the few remaining pages of the Byrds Flyght website:

Thanks, interesting story. It's just as well they didn't appear on Self-Portrait, it wouldn't have done much for their career at that point.
