Happy Byrd-day! or What Dan Got in the Mail Today

A few years ago I got The Essential Byrds from the library, and loved more than a few songs on it. In the intervening years I've come very very close to buying a CD of theirs but have always held off. That is, until recently.

I found out that amazon was offering their complete discography for $30 - and since the set contains 11 CDs of music, that's less than $3 a CD. Knowing I'd not have this good fortune again, I decided to get it, and it finally came in the mail today.

Ain't it pretty?
I am sharing this with you, the internet, because I am likely going to do a series of reviews of their albums as I listen to them in chronological order. It will not be a frequently updated series, may never be finished, and may never even be attempted, but we'll just have to see. I'm sure the suspense is killing you.
