Byrds records

  This page attempts to comprehensively list every recording released by the Byrds. This page excludes compilations, unless the compilation includes a recording that is unavailable elsewhere.

   Otherwise, compilations primarily consisting of Byrds recordings (Greatest Hits, etc.) are listed on the Byrds Compilations page.

   Compilation albums with only one or two songs by the Byrds are listed on the Byrds Various Artists page. Such albums might include soundtracks with multiple artists.

   Finally, solo releases by former Byrds are listed on the individual's discography page. Links to those pages are at top and bottom.

   If you have additions, please contact RAOUL VEROLLEMAN. If you can provide scans of album covers (including variations of those shown here), please e-mail RAOUL VEROLLEMAN before sending the scans.

Beefeaters: single

Original release date: November 1964

Don't Be Long
Please Let Me Love You

Note: The first 45 rpm record by the Byrds. The second pair of images may be the commercial version of the single (as opposed to the promo white-label version). Or it may be a counterfeit. The fifth and sixth are the British single (Pye records, from 1965). The seventh image is apparently a U.S. or German 45 rpm reissue (with picture sleeve) from circa 1995 on Elektra Records. (It possibly is a bootleg). The eighth image is the UK stock copy on Elektra.

The last image is from the earliest known release: a promo on the Bounty label (an Elektra subsidiary).

It took us 44 years to find and purchase a copy!

Note: Although this CD purports to be the Byrds, most these recordings are actually unreleased recordings by Gene Clark and Pat Robinson.

Some of the recordings are apparently by an unrelated band. Although the CD appears to be legitimately released in Europe, none of the recordings are actually by the Byrds (not even the Gene Clark Byrds of the '80s), and the label indicates the recordings were officially leased from Pat Robinson, but Robinson denies knowledge of the CD release. This CD has also been released under the title Mr. Tambourine Man (see below). Another CD includes several of the same tracks, It's All In Your Eyes.
