  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers ist das fünfte Studioalbum der US-amerikanischen Folk-Rock-Band The Byrds, das sechste wenn man das Greatest Hits-Album mitzählt. Es erschien am 3. Januar 1968 auf dem Label Columbia Records. In den Vereinigten Staaten erreichte das Album #47 der Pop-Charts, in Großbritannien #12. Trotz guter Kritiken hatte The Notorious Byrd Brothers die bis dahin schlechtesten Verkaufszahlen eines Byrds-Albums, was es nicht daran hinderte ein Rockklassiker zu werden. So erreichte das Album auf der 2003 vom Rolling Stone zusammengestellten Liste der 500 besten Alben aller Zeiten Platz 171.
  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers is the fifth album by the American rock band The Byrds and was released in January 1968 on Columbia Records. Musically, the album represents the pinnacle of The Byrds' psychedelic experimentation, with the band blending together elements of folk rock, psychedelic rock, country music, electronica, and jazz on many of the songs. Of these disparate styles, the subtle country and western influences evident on a number of tracks pointed towards the full-blown country rock direction that the band would pursue on their next album. In addition, The Notorious Byrd Brothers saw the band and record producer Gary Usher making extensive use of a number of studio effects and production techniques, including phasing, flanging, and spatial panning. The Byrds also introduced the sound of the pedal steel guitar and the Moog modular synthesizer into their music for the first time on the album, making it one of the first LP releases on which the Moog appears. Recording sessions for the album took place throughout the latter half of 1967 and were fraught with tension, resulting in the loss of two members of the band. Rhythm guitarist David Crosby was fired in October 1967 and drummer Michael Clarke left the band midway through recording, returning briefly before finally being dismissed after completion of the album. Additionally, original band member Gene Clark, who had left the group in early 1966, rejoined for three weeks during the making of the album, before leaving again. Author Ric Menck has noted that in spite of these changes in personnel and the conflict surrounding its creation, The Notorious Byrd Brothers is the band's most cohesive and ethereal-sounding album statement. Upon its release, the album reached #47 on the Billboard Top LPs chart and #12 on the UK Album Chart. A cover of the Gerry Goffin and Carole King song "Goin' Back" was released in October 1967 as the lead single from the album to mild chart success. Although The Notorious Byrd Brothers was critically praised at the time of its release, it was only moderately successful commercially, particularly in the United States. However, the album is today widely considered to be one of The Byrds' best LP releases, as well as their most experimental and progressive.
  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers es el quinto album publicado por The Byrds, lanzado en 1968 por Columbia Records, que alcanzó el puesto nº47 en el Billboard Top Pop Albums con una permanencia en listas de 19 semanas, llegando asimismo al puesto nº12 en las listas del Reino Unido. Las ventas iniciales fueron menores que las de los anteriores álbumes de la banda, y el single inicial "Goin' Back", lanzado el 20 de Octubre de 1967, solo alcanzó un discreto puesto 89 en el Billboard Hot 100, aunque esta marca ya sólo fue superada en dos ocasiones por los posteriores singles del grupo. La grabación de "Notorious... " no fue una experiencia placentera y desembocó en el abandono de dos de los Byrds originales. Sin embargo, en 2003, el álbum fue situado en el puesto 171 por Rolling Stone en su lista de los 500 álbumes más importantes de la historia. A pesar de su accidentada grabación, el disco contiene algunos de los momentos más hermosos y etéreos del legado Byrds, desarrollando una vena progresiva y experimental inexplorada hasta el momento por la banda. En sus letras encontramos un compromiso con temas de máxima candencia en el momento de su creación, como son la preocupación por la paz, la ecología, la libertad, el uso de drogas, la alienación y el lugar del hombre en el universo.
  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers on yhdysvaltalaisen The Byrds -yhtyeen tammikuussa 1968 julkaistu viides studioalbumi, jota monet pitävät yhtyeen parhaana. Sen kuuluisimpia kappaleita ovat ”Artificial Energy”, ”Old John Robertson” sekä Carole King/Gerry Goffin -käsialaa ollut ”Wasn't Born to Follow”, joka oli seuraavana vuonna mukana elokuvassa Easy Rider – matkalla. Singlenä julkaistiin niinikään King/Goffin-kappale ”Goin' Back” ja se oli korkeimmillaan Yhdysvaltain Billboard-listan sijalla 89. David Crosby erosi yhtyeestä kesken albumin äänitysten, koska hän ei suostunut levyttämään Kingin ja Goffinin sävellyksiä, vaan olisi halunnut ottaa mukaan omia poliittisesti kantaaottavia laulujaan. Myös rumpali Michael Clarke erosi tai erotettiin yhtyeestä nauhoitusten ollessa vielä kesken. Toisin kuin Crosby, Clarke on mukana albumin kansikuvassa.

  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers är rockgruppen The Byrds femte studioalbum, släppt i januari 1968 på Columbia Records. Albumet spelades in från juni till december 1967. Producerade gjorde Gary Usher. Kommersiellt sett var albumet, jämfört med sina föregångare, ingen storsäljare och det blev som bäst 47:a på Billboards albumlista. I Storbritannien nådde det 12:e plats. Tidskriften Rolling Stone rankade 2003 albumet som nummer 171 på listan The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Albumet spelades in under mycket röriga förhållanden. David Crosby lämnade gruppen under inspelningen. En orsak var att han inte fick ha med sin låt "Triad" på albumet, men han ville också få fria händer att utföra sin egen musik. Gene Clark gick kort med i gruppen igen, men medverkade aldrig på några inspelningar och försvann efter bara tre veckor. På grund av bråk i studion ersattes också trummisen Michael Clarke på vissa spår av studiomusikern Jim Gordon. Musiken på albumet är lite av varje. Det man kan lägga märke till är att det här är det första albumet där countrymusik hörs som tydlig inspirationskälla, till exempel i "Wasn't Born to Follow" (vilken i övrigt var med i filmen Easy Rider). Folkrocken ("Old John Robertson")kvarstår dock, liksom den "rymdrock" ("Space Odyssey") och psykedeliska rock ("Natural Harmony", "Draft Morning") som påbörjats på Fifth Dimension Nyutgåvor inkluderar ett par bonusspår, bland annat Crosbys låt "Triad" och en alternativ tagning på "Goin' Back".
  • The Notorious Byrd Brothers est le cinquième album du groupe américain The Byrds, paru début 1968. Son enregistrement fut particulièrement difficile : David Crosby fut renvoyé du groupe pendant les sessions, et Michael Clarke partit de son propre chef.
