Hi Everyone,

 

 
We hope you are all safe and healthy as we ride out this storm together.
 
A John York FaceBook page has been created so we can share some new in-home concerts with you.
 
The FaceBook address is:
 
 
Please share this with your friends and like it if you want to.
 
Our thanks go out to Ellen Giurleo at Keith Putney Productions for creating the page and to William Kollar at LBN Productions for his editing skills.
 
The first video in our "All in it Together" concert series will be up as soon as we have some friends for this new FaceBook page.
 
If you don't do FaceBook, the video series will also be on youtube.com soon, and also on John's website at: johnyorkmusic.com (Thanks to Don Gillespie for that.)
 
Sumi & John

Pictures taken at the Byrds show at Boise State College, Boise, Idaho  1/28/1973, when Toulouse Engelhardt was on tour with them as the band's support act.

Update 04/9: we've had some questions about who the drummer was. The drummer is Dennis Dragon , who went on to curl his hair, color it blond and be a founding member of The Surf Punks.

This image too was sent to us by Toulouse Engelhardt, who was a student at the college and attended the concert on October 29, 1965.

Many thanks to him.

We just received an e-mail from Toulouse Engelhardt:

Hello!

 
This is Toulouse Engelhardt, finger style acoustic guitarist who recorded for John Fahey's Takoma Records back in the 1970's. I wanted to let you know that I was the support act for The Byrds on many of their final American tour dates in 1973. 
 
Please add these additional performance dates to your list
 
Jan. 27th, 1973   Fine Arts Center, Utah State University, Logan, Utah ( Two sold out shows in one evening)
 
Jan. 28th, 1973   College Gymnasium, Boise State College, Boise, Idaho
 

These dates are not mentioned in Christopher Hjort's book from 2008, so these additions are welcome. Thanks, Toulouse. 
 
Toulouse's CD from 2004 titled "A Child's Guide To The Universe" features John York.

Byrds Flyght is parting with its huge collection of Byrds and Byrds-related items (records, reel-to-reel tapes, cassette tapes, CDs, CDRs, DVD, DVDrs, VHS video tapes, posters, books, magazines, etc…).

As far as records and CDs are concerned, we have a near-complete collection of every Byrds album release (official and unofficial) as well as every solo or group album release by the 11 ex-members and every participation by the 11 ex-members in other artists’ albums (except for recordings by and with David Crosby – we only have a few by him). We also have many 7’’ singles and E.P.s. Most of what we have can be viewed on Byrds Flyght’s pages.

So now is the time to get this rare item that you’ve been searching for for decades. Send an e-mail to Byrds Flyght at

byrdsflyght@skynet.be

with details of what you’re looking for, as well as the maximum price (including shipping) you’re willing to pay to get it. No funny low prices please. Serious offers only.

We will answer every e-mail, but of course we often have one copy only of each item. So don’t be disappointed if the answer is negative. If so, it’s either because the item has already been sold or because your offer doesn’t reach our own estimated value price. In the latter case, we will tell you so and give you a second chance to make a higher offer.
