I'm not a huge Byrds fan but most of the Byrds tracks that I do really like are the more southern styled post-Crosby tunes. Likewise, most of the tracks from The Notorious Byrd Brothers that I do like don't credit Crosby as the songwriter. I really like about half of the tracks on Ballad of Easy Rider, half of the tracks on Sweetheart of the Rodeo, and a handful from Untitled. One Hundred Years From Now, You Ain't Going Nowhere, Gunga Din, Fido, Build It Up, Artificial Energy, Natural Harmony, Draft Morning, Wasn't Born to Follow, Way Beyond the Sun, Lover of the Bayou, and Jesus Is Just Alright are all stand out tracks to me.
