THE BYRDS / BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD The Byrds / Buffalo Springfield : Live at the Monterey International Pop Festival ( Monterey International Pop Festival Foundation )
The two most influential American rock bands performing at the Monterey International Pop Festival — Buffalo Springfield and The Byrds — had one thing in common : David Crosby . These sets mark a pivotal moment in Crosby ’ s career : One of his final performances before leaving The Byrds ( with serious acrimony ) and sitting in with Buffalo Springfield at the request of Stephen Stills , the beginnings of the partnership that would become Crosby , Stills , and Nash . While the sets by Otis , The Who , Janis Joplin , and Jimi Hendrix were revolutionary , these by The Byrds and Buffalo Springfield tell a different story of one artist ’ s evolution that , in turn , changed rock music itself . Another high-quality release brought to you by the same team that envisioned , designed , and produced the previous Live at The Monterey International Pop Festival LPs of recent years , all of which have been initially released as RSD exclusives : i . e ., Otis Redding , The Who , Big Brother & The Holding Company , Jefferson Airplane , The Mamas & The Papas . A double vinyl LP in a high-gloss tip-on gatefold jacket with printed inner sleeves . Vinyl color is one LP in Opaque Orchid and one in Opaque Sky Blue .
