The Byrds - Live at Dean Junior College 1972 - repost with updated audio files and artwork

This one has been posted already. As someone requested a repost, I took the opportunity to update the artwork, which was full of errors and omissions. I also updated the names of the audio files and the tags. The front cover has a picture of the wrong lineup (John Guerin shoud be there, not Gene Parsons). The booklet and back pictures are correct.

Don’t expect hi-fi – it’s a rather poor quality audience recording.

Gram Parsons – The Neon Bread Tape

 

Gram Parsons – The Neon Bread Tape

Studio, New York, NY

I received this one from a cyber friend. Hereunder is the original accompanying text. I guess TTD means “The Traders Den”, so that probably the original source. I have more than serious doubts about this being from the early 70s though. It lasts just under 2 hours and there are no tracks by either The International Submarine Band or The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers or Gram’s solo LPs. My guess is that it’s from the mid-sixties.

Disc 1

1. banter (1:44)

2. jam (4:46)

3. jam (4:29)

4. guitar tuning (1:32)

5. In The Evening (When The Sun Goes Down) (10:05)

9. Pick A Bale Of Cotton (2:00)

10. Oh, Freedom (0:48)

11. It's Me, It's Me O Lord (4:02)

12. banter and tuning (0:52)

13. banter and banging

14. hello, testing, guitar

Comments:


This comes from a reel that was given to me in the late 90's by the same source that gave me all of the 1970 Byrds shows and the Gene Clark rough mixes. The reel was labelled "Neon Bread", and the source told me that it was an undocumented Gram Parsons New York City studio session from the early 70's. Naturally, I was intrigued.

At most points of the reel there were different programs in the right and left channels...only occasionally did the two sides synch up. At some points one channel was forwards and the other channel backwards! Lots of fun!

Because of these issues, my CDR copy had gone uncirculated (and unplayed) for the past 20+ years. A few weeks ago I reached out to a friend and fellow TTD member to aid in the restoration of this ultra-rare gem. Thanks to his efforts, here it is!

And by the way, it isn't very good. Extremely rare, but not very good.

Enjoy !
