Oh, and Sweetheart of the Rodeo is another I need to revisit, and I'm guessing I would like more now than even a year or two ago.

"I need to re-listen to that one. I did not give it a good score, but I might've been in a bad mood or just not ready for it."

Not everyone loved the FBBs back in the day either. No apologies needed.

Remind me @Chris S, were there any albums on the list from original Byrd member Gene Clark? His solo catalog is really enjoyable, leading up to his crowning achievement, "No Other".

The other Byrds albums I've gotten so far are:

Younger Than Yesterday
Fifth Dimension
Mr. Tambourine Man
Sweetheart of the Rodeo
The Notorious Byrd Brothers

I think Mr Tambourine Man and Younger Than Yesterday were Gene Clark?

Also so far I've gotten White Light and No Other by him.

All of these got 3 or 4 stars from me, except Sweetheart of the Rodeo which I didn't like on first listen. Like I said, I should revisit.

There may be others, still about 100 albums to go.

These are two of GC's best. The Deluxe edition of No Other has a complete set of different, more organic versions than the tracks on the orignal release that are just as good, a few maybe even better.

Joanna Newsom - Ys (1001 Albums, 1/5)

I don't think I can explain just how much I hated this Joanna Newsom album. For context, I hate Bjork and everything she's done (The Sugar cubes have a few decent songs, the ones she isn't featured heavily on) and this was in the same vein.
