Chris Hillman

Chris Hillman (The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Manassas, Desert Rose Band) returns with an all-new album produced by Tom Petty and executive produced by Herb Pedersen.  In addition to Petty, guest appearances are made by artists including Hillman's Byrds bandmates David Crosby and Roger McGuinn; The Heartbreakers' Benmont Tench, Mike Campbell, and Steve Ferrone; and Desert Rose Band's John Jorgenson, Pedersen, and Jay Dee Maness.  The strains of Hillman's past run through this celebratory record.  He revisits Pete Seeger and Welsh poet Idris Davies' "The Bells of Rhymney," which The Byrds recorded for their debut.  "Here She Comes Again" was co-written by Hillman and McGuinn and, until now, had only been released on a live Byrds album in Australia.  "She Don't Care About Time" was written by Byrds co-founder Gene Clark, and was the B-side of "Turn! Turn! Turn!"  Covers of the Everly Brothers' 'Walk Right Back' and Tom Petty's "Wildflowers" are among the tracks fusing rock and roll, bluegrass and country in classic Hillman style.  Available on CD, LP, and DD.
