"I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better" is a song by the Los Angeles #folkRock band #theByrds, first released in June 1965 on the #Bside of the band's second single, "All I Really Want to Do". Despite initially being released as a B-side, the song managed to chart in its own right in the U.S., just outside the Billboard Hot 100. It was also included on the Byrds' debut album, #MrTambourineMan and #TheByrdsGreatestHits. The song was written by band member #GeneClark.

This is a keeper! Too bad about the first track on both sides. Lots of good stuff on here.
"Deportee/Plane Wreck At Los Gatos) is the second to last track on the second side. (Woody Guthrie tune!).
Had no idea of their music, except know "Mr Tambourine Man"

GENE CLARK
White Light
2023 Spain Ltd. Edition reissueA phenomenal note-perfect songwriting masterpiece for a fine Saturday afternoon.
It baffles my mind that this album was only a commercial success in the Netherlands when it came out in ‘71.
Sure.
NOW it’s recognized as the stroke of genius that it is, but how could have people missed it back then?More than anything else, White Light shows that Clark was the true heartbeat of The Byrds.
The lyrics are poetry, the music absolutely sublime. Incredible countrified melodies. Just amazing on all fronts.Listen to his take on “Tears Of Rage” and tell me his isn’t the best version.
I dare you.

THE BYRDS
The Notorious Byrd Brothers
1968 Canada pressingLast spin of the night.
Unequivocally one of my three all-time favorite #60s albums.
This was the very first Byrds album I heard start to finish. My uncles (all 9 of them) all listened to country and folk music, but a few branched out into the more #psychedelic areas of those genres.
That’s where I first heard The Notorious Byrd Brothers. From my Uncle Ed, who sadly, passed away last week.
I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to hear this album without thinking about him, and how he taught me that they were much more than those few hit songs I heard on oldies and classic rock radio as a kid.
This album features a lot of different studio effects for the time, & it’s one of the first LPs to ever feature a Moog synth.
Gene Clark actually came back for a few weeks, & may or may NOT be on some backing vocals on 2 songs.
