Very nice!

"This is prime Byrds material. It is only fair, in my opinion, to judge this work in view of the fact that it was produced in 1966. But that being said, I think it can for the most part stand alongside music released several years later by other groups such as Crosby's later collaboration: CSNY. Sure, CSNY had tighter harmonies and more overall sophistication, but the difference between CSNY and The Byrds here is not all that huge. Core to this album is the amazing triplet of songs: Eight Miles High, Hey Joe, and Captain Soul. Eight Miles High is solid. Crosby puts forward piercing, emotional vocals on Hey Joe. As for Captain Soul, it may not have words, but it is "hopping" in a good-thing-there-are-no-words sense."
