Description
Remastered 45th anniversary edition. Gene Clarks 1974 masterpiece gets the reappraisal its long overdue. On the eve of what would have been American singer-songwriter and Byrds founding member Gene Clarks 75th birthday comes the reissue of one of his finest works, No Other. Released in 1974 on Asylum Records, a year after the Byrds shortlived reunion, Gene reached for the stars with No Other; a psychedelic rock, folk, country and soul record that famously cost a small fortune to make. Although received warmly by critics, it flopped and was soon deleted, a failure Gene never came to terms with. However, as The New York Times wrote around the records 40th anniversary in 2014, hindsight has burnished No Other, as it has redeemed other albums that went on to be reconstructed as rock repertory, like Big Stars Third / Sister Lovers and Lou Reeds Berlin, with the album now being increasingly recognised as one of the greatest of its time, if not all time.
