Album Notes THIS BYRD HAS FLOWN is a reissue of the album FIREBYRD with three previously-unreleased tracks: "All I Want," "Dixie Flyer" and "C'est La Bonne Rue." Personnel: Gene Clark (vocals, guitar); Shannon O'Neill (acoustic guitar); "Sneaky" Pete Kleinow (steel guitar); Greg Douglas, Albert Lee (guitar); Bud Shank (flute); Jai Winding, David Ozzie Ahlers (keyboards); Bret Bloomfield, Peter Oliva, Dave Chamberlain (bass); Rick Marotta (drums); Andy Kandanes (drums, background vocals); Lenny Castro (percussion); Thomas Jefferson Kaye, Chris Hillman, Herb Pederson (background vocals). Recorded at Different Fur Recording Studios, San Francisco, California and Phoenix Group Studio, North Hollywood, California. Includes liner notes by Andy Kandanes. All tracks have been digitally remastered. This is a posthumous, expanded, and remixed version of Clark's well-received 1984 Takoma album. Some fans were nonplussed with the revamped treatments of Byrds hits including "Mr. Tambourine Man" and Clark's own classic "Feel a Whole Lot Better," but in retrospect these slightly modernized takes (complete with harmonies by fellow Byrd Chris Hillman) are as valid as any. Clark also does yeoman work here on Gordon Lightfoot's "If You Could Read My Mind,' and several of his originals--particularly the wistful "Blue Raven" and "The Rain Song"--are as exquisite as any of his better-known folk and country rockers.
