is available here, with free shipping worldwideSpecial Thanks to Roger McGuinn, founder of The Byrds for his comments:
I've listened to "Fallen". The cover looks like a scene from "Chestnut Mare".
You're right, it's mostly country.
‘It's Gonna Rain Soon’ is exceptionally good. Great production, amazing compression and technique on the Rickenbacker, good vocals. Makes me want to record something like this myself! - All the best, Roger

Thanks to Eric Sorensen for this review:
'Bells Of Rhymney' – Tony Poole. Wow! Tony’s terrific version of this song brings back the emotions that I felt when I first heard the Byrds’ version of this song in 1965. The guitar work and the vocals are superb.
