In 1968, The Byrds changed the course of popular music as Roger McGuinn, Chris Hillman & new members Gram Parsons and Kevin Kelley delivered one of the first bluegrass/rock albums with their masterpiece "Sweetheart Of The Rodeo." This album remains one of the most influential pieces of music of all time.
The masterwork kicks off with their hit "You Ain't Going Nowhere" and follows with the brilliant "I Am A Pilgrim", featuring Chris Hillman.
More choice material abounds thanks to Gram Parsons with his signature works "Hickory Wind" and "One Hundred Years From Now."
