Gene Clark: A Poet of Song

Early Years and The Byrds (1964-1966)

“Mr. Tambourine Man” (1965)

Gene Clark’s journey into the world of music began with The Byrds. Their debut album, “Mr. Tambourine Man,” released in 1965, marked a significant chapter in the folk-rock movement. Clark’s songwriting contributions, including the title track and “I’ll Feel a Whole Lot Better,” showcased his ability to blend folk influences with a contemporary rock sound.

“Turn! Turn! Turn!” (1965)

The Byrds’ second album, “Turn! Turn! Turn!” released later in 1965, featured the timeless title track with lyrics adapted from the Book of Ecclesiastes. Clark’s songwriting on tracks like “Set You Free This Time” and “The World Turns All Around Her” continued to enrich the band’s sonic landscape.

“Fifth Dimension” (1966)

“Fifth Dimension,” released in 1966, marked a departure into more experimental territory for The Byrds. Clark’s “Eight Miles High” became an iconic track that showcased his adventurous approach to songwriting and pushed the boundaries of folk-rock into new sonic realms.

Departure from The Byrds and “Gene Clark with the Gosdin Brothers” (1967)

“Gene Clark with the Gosdin Brothers” (1967)

After leaving The Byrds, Gene Clark released his debut solo album, “Gene Clark with the Gosdin Brothers,” in 1967. The album reflected a more country and folk-oriented sound.

The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark (1968-1969)

“The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark” (1968)

Teaming up with Doug Dillard, “The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark,” released in 1968, marked a venture into the country-rock genre. The album featured tracks like “Train Leaves Here This Morning,” where Clark’s soulful vocals and evocative songwriting shone in the country-rock landscape.

“Through the Morning, Through the Night” (1969)

The duo’s second and final album, “Through the Morning, Through the Night” (1969), continued the exploration of country-rock. Clark’s songwriting, especially in tracks like “Polly” and “Why Not Your Baby,” reflected a blend of poetic lyricism and a deep connection to Americana roots.

Return to Solo Work and “White Light” (1971)

“White Light” (1971)

“White Light,” released in 1971, marked a significant solo effort by Gene Clark. The album showcased a more stripped-down and intimate sound. Clark’s reflective songwriting, exemplified in tracks like “For a Spanish Guitar” and “With Tomorrow,” revealed a vulnerability and emotional depth that resonated with listeners.

“Two Sides to Every Story” (1977)

“Two Sides to Every Story,” released in 1977, showcased Clark’s collaboration with guitarist Jesse Ed Davis. The album featured a diverse range of musical styles, from folk to rock.

The 1990s: Rediscovery and “So Rebellious a Lover” (1987-1988)
