Gene Clarke 'No Other'
Gene Clarke is buried in Tipton, Missouri - his headstone simply reads: "Harold Eugene Clarke - No Other". He was the underrated mastermind behind much of The Byrds' best output. His solo album from 1974 was way ahead of its time, fusing gospel and choral elements with country, folk and psychedelia to produce a heady and intoxicating sound. This is a great taster for an album that rewards and grows on you with each listen.
