Beyond his achievements as a founding member of the Byrds, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Gene Clark was truly one of the most prolific singer/songwriters of the rock era. This album introduces previously unreleased studio sessions from Clark’s pre-Byrds days in 1964 to his 1982 reunion with his former bandmates Chris Hillman and Michael Clarke as Nyteflyte. Since his passing in 1991, many of Gene Clark’s home demo recordings and various live recordings have been released. Actual studio recording sessions were rare and their existence was more rumor than fact until this release. This is essentially an alternative history of Gene Clark’s most productive years as a songwriter. Limited-edition pressing on translucent tan vinyl, packaged in a gatefold sleeve with a 24-page color booklet, album notes and rare photos. This 24-track double LP set had a limited release in 2016 from Sierra Records and is extremely rare.
