Cancelled Flytes

This terrific limited-edition set (new, sealed copies) showcases the Byrds' "singles-that-never-really-existed". It comprises dedicated mono mixes initially prepped for release as Columbia singles and then shelved at the last minute. Each 45rpm single in this set features the original mono mixes of the tracks, period-accurate picture sleeves, original Columbia Records labels, rare archival photos, and an insert containing session details of each recording!

You get 5 singles in this amazing, high-quality box:\r\n

1. Chimes of Freedom/The Bells of Rhymney
2. It's All Over Now, Baby Blue/She Don't Care About Me
3. The Times They Are A-Changin'/She Has A Way
4. I Know My Rider/Psychodrama City
5. My Back Pages/It Happens Each Day

According to the excellent liner notes:\r\n

Each of the ten recordings included here was at one time envisioned for seven-inch release on some level. Certain song-pairings made it as far as the test pressing stage; they were assigned catalog numbers and, in some cases, received advance radio airplay. Others were abandoned by the group members, themselves, for their own artistic reasons at the session's wrap; and still others were unmercifully cancelled by Columbia Records in favor of a new and differently envisioned coupling considered to be more commercially viable.
