The version of The Byrds that played Amsterdam's prestigious Concertgebouw in July 1970 was very different to previous incarnations. The Skip Battin/Gene Parsons rhythm section was tight and allowed the guitars of Roger McGunn and Clarence White room to roam, most noticeably on an extended 'Eight Miles High'. Thoroughly road-hardened, the band played material from throughout their entire career and threw in some previously unreleased cover versions as well.
