In our 3 years here at So Many Roads, we’ve posted 5 shows from The Byrds from 1970. Over the next 2 days, we’ll bring you 2 more! Seems that bootlegs from that year abound, and probably with good reason. The 1970 line up of Roger McGuinn, Clarence White, Skip Battin and Gene Parsons had the longest tenure of any configuration of The Byrds. In addition, they developed a reputation for being a formidable live act, honing their skills by touring relentlessly during a nearly 3 year stretch from September 1969 to July 1972. This soundboard recording captures The Byrds on October 23, 1970, 42 years ago today, in Brooklyn. The show took place at the 46th St. Rock Palace, later renamed Banana Fish Gardens, which would host numerous episodes of Don Kirschner’s Rock Concert TV show, such as the Stephen Stills concert we posted here. In any event, download this one now, then stop by tomorrow for another installment of The Byrds as part of our Back to Back series this month at So Many Roads.

I grew up in Jersey in the 70's. A lot of your music was recorded at MANY places I went to. Concerts were cheap and fun, especially in the summer. You bring back some very fond memories. I appreciate all the hard work you put into it and if the people with their petty complaints don't like something, they should stay off the site.

Thank you! I'm playing this for my mom right now. She was at a Byrds show at the Felt Forum around this time.
