The Byrds were one of the earliest groups who could combine the best of two worlds. They caught on to the energy of the British Invasion and combined it with the lyricism and musical elements of the contemporary folk movement. Along the way they pioneered psychedelic and country rock, always keeping things recognisable with their vocal harmonies accompanied by their jangly guitars. On their third album Fifth Dimension from 1966 they started showing a more LSD-tinged side of themselves with the psychedelic rock of songs such as "Eight Miles High" and "I See You" and a preference for the Indian raga. One of their most pioneering albums! Fifth Dimension is available as a 60th anniversary edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on orange coloured vinyl.
