American Dreamer 1964-1974 (CD)
Kudos to Australia's Raven for assembling this fine 24-track overview of Gene Clark's most fertile period. Included are three Clark-penned Byrds stunners, two of the best from his first solo album, six from the Dillard & Clark albums (the Velvet Crush-covered "Why Not Your Baby" is unfortunately overlooked), a Flying Burritos-backed gem, two ersatz Byrds reunion cuts from Roadmaster, a whopping six from White Light, "Full Circle" from the otherwise tepid 1973 Byrds reunion, and two selections from No Other (though not the This Mortal Coil-covered "Strength of Strings"). An interesting early mix of "Full Circle Song" is included as a bonus. For the uninitiated, this is a great place to start, but even a fanatic will be pleased by the inclusion of the hard to find White Light cuts and Sid Griffin's fannish liner notes. ~ Michael Ribas, All Music Guide
