Gene Clark: The Lost Studio Sessions 1964 - 1982 (CD)
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Gene Clark was not only a founding member of the Byrds, but also one of the most prolific singer/songwriters of the rock era. This collection includes studio sessions from Clark's pre-Byrds days in early 1964 as well as studio recordings from 1967-70 with Hugh Masekela on horns and arrangements by Leon Russell. There is also a track with the Flying Burrito Brothers. Finally, this set contains five songs recorded as part of the 1982 Nyteflyte reunion with Clark's former bandmates Chris Hillman and Michael Clarke. These tracks are only included on the CD.
Since his death in 1991, many of Clark's home demos and various live tracks have been released, but actual studio sessions were rare until this album, The Lost Studio Sessions: 1964-1982, was first released by Sierra Records in 2016. These "lost" recordings are presented in the best possible sound quality, mastered from the original analog mono, stereo and multitrack tapes. The Lost Studio Sessions is essentially an alternative history of the artist's most productive years as a songwriter. The CD set includes a 36-page booklet with rare photos, production and recording information and extensive liner notes by compilation producer John Delgatto and Clark experts Johnny Rogan, John Einarson and Domenic Priore.

Gene Clark
Don't This Road Look Rough And Rocky (aka Rough And Rocky)
Although Gene Clark's first solo A&M album, colloquially known as 'White Light,' followed two Dillard & Clark LPs into the cut-out bins, A&M kept the faith, bankrolling some sessions in April, May, and June 1972. Clark brought in some new songs and a few non-originals. He was working with Chris Hinshaw, who'd engineered some Taj Mahal, Sly Stone, and Byrds albums. In June, A&M pulled the plug. The final straw came when Sly Stone arrived, racking up thousands of dollars on A&M's dime when Clark was out of town. "Those sessions were fun and I had great people playing on them," Clark told Dominic Priore, "but it was hard to get it together the way I wanted it." Clark saw musical tastes shifting toward heavy metal and decided to go low-key and meditative. A&M sat on the tapes, seeing no future for them until Clark's sometime manager, Jim Dickson, went to Holland and saw Byrds and Burrito bootlegs. Deciding that the A&M tapes were better than the bootlegs, he prevailed upon A&M to lease the tapes to their European licensee, Ariola. Roger McGuinn sang harmony on some songs, quite possibly because he was talking to Gene about the reunion of the original Byrds. There's an unissued mix on which he's clearly audible on Rough And Rocky. None of the Byrds was doing especially well on his own, but Clark probably had the most to gain from a reunion, and he provided that unremarkable album with most of its high spots.
Flatt & Scruggs' Don't This Road Look Rough And Rocky was a song that Gene probably heard the duo perform on their Martha White television show, but, until comparatively recently, it was only available on a single. They recorded it in 1954 and copyrighted it then, but it was a much older song of unknown provenance. The Blue Sky Boys had recorded it in 1936 as Can't You Hear That Night Bird Calling and it went under a bunch of other titles dating back to the dawn of recorded country music history. Its origin probably lay in a nineteenth century pop or minstrel song.
