Rated 6/10
Favorite track(s): You're Still on My Mind, One Hundred Years from Now, Nothing Was Delivered
Rated 4/10
This is #day499 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and… yay, here's to my first The Byrds record on this list. As I've mentioned a couple of times, country is among my worst genres on this journey and will likely stay that way until the end of it. This kind of music just does nothing for me. This is a low 2 out of 5. Looking forward to, wow, #day500.

Must've been a banger at Christ camp '68
Rated 6/10
nice sound - fun but... 3/5
Rated 8/10
Hieno läpileikkaus amerikkailaisen musiikin historiasta. 4/5
Rated 10/10
This album sounds like old Austin, which I guess makes sense given the group and the timeframe. I happen to like old Austin.
Rated 6/10
solidan kantri koji na kraju krajeva ostaje tek običan kantri. nekako mi je izrazito američki izdizati ovo u nebesa, ali i žestoko pljuvati po ovom. sve u svemu okej, doduše fora omot
Rated 4/10
Kind of boring... No original takes here and nothing special

Better than Coldplay
Rated 6/10
Nice album. Some really good songs on this one even though I don't really think country is my thing. Life in prison is a very strange song. Perhaps I'm missing something but it's just a guy feeling sad because he killed his wife??
Rated 4/10
100% unnecessary. A mediocre country album from a decent rock band. Maybe the peak example yet of this list's tedious infatuation with 60s/70s white guys over everything far more interesting, experimental or diverse from the past 30 years.
That said, 100 Years From Now is pretty cool.
Rated 4/10
nothing special for me
Rated 6/10
Why did the Byrds make a country album with steel guitar? Gross.
Rated 2/10
Didn’t know The Byrds did country. They shouldn’t have
Rated 8/10
This laid back 60's style is very nice to my ears. I don't want to be one of those shunning buddies, and to each their own, but I could do without The Christian Life.
Rated 4/10
I despise country but this is country rock, so I managed to slog through it. Not something I’d seek out on my own but I also wouldn’t hate it playing in the background somewhere (like I would hate country).
Rated 4/10
I'm very much into 60s - 80s country, so an album like this is very much in my wheelhouse. That said, I liked this album, but there's nothing special here. Almost the entire album sounds like filler. This is totally inoffensive and easy to listen to, but I just keep waiting for it to get better and it never did. The especially frustrating part for me is I like this band AND I like this genre. I guess I just had expectations that weren't met.
I feel like giving this three stars is too generous, and two stars is too harsh. Whatever rating I end up giving to this album isn't one I'm going to be satisfied with.
At least it's a short listen, so I only had anxiety about its underperformance for about half an hour.
