Disc 1 – The Unreleased Originals – Part 1

This 7 CD set of unreleased, rare, alternate takes, demos, and live recordings was compiled and released on CDRs by and only for members of the Gene Clark Yahoo List in 2001.

Miscellaneous recordings of varying sound quality, but overall good to very good

It’s a hard-to-find gem, a fan compilation box set of the great songwriter and golden-voiced singer-songwriter, Gene Clark. This is a whopping 7 disc collection consisting completely of unreleased material from throughout his post-Byrds (and post-Dillard & Clark) career (covering 1971-1991). That is, this material was all unreleased at the time the compilation was put together, which was 2001, as since then official versions of some of these tracks have been subsequently released.

The compilation is divided into the sections Unreleased Originals, Unreleased Covers, Rare Releases and Alternate Takes, and The Live Performances, but within those sections there is no particular theme or order, as different time periods are mixed throughout.

This contains loads of great stuff for dedicated fans, including much that you may not have heard before, by this great, underappreciated artist.

Some tracks are duets or band performances; all details (credits, songs, places, dates, contributors, etc…) are mentioned in the 12 page booklet that will be posted with Disc 7.

Gene Clark (solo), Gene Clark & The Firebyrds, Gene Clark & The Silverados, Gene Clark & The Byrds Tribute, Gene Clark & Roger McGuinn, Flyte (Gene Clark, Chris Hillman, Al Perkins, Herb Pedersen), McGuinn, Clark & Hillman, McGuinn, Clark & Crosby, Gene Clark & The K.C.

This Vol. 9 is a compilation of tracks from the 8 previous CDs.

Note: Track 18 (to 21) was originally titled “Don’t Be Long” (producer Terry Melcher refers to this title during these sessions). It was retitled “It Won’t Be Wrong” when it appeared on the “Turn Turn Turn” LP. Here, it is wrongly titled “It Won’t Be Long” (which of course is a Beatles song).
