Before the Byrds "invented" country rock, Buffalo Springfield was playing it in relative obscurity. This song A Child's Claim To Fame predates the release of the Byrd's landmark album Sweetheart of the Rodeo by almost two years. From my perspective Buffalo Springfield played their instruments & sang in a more authentically country style than the Byrds. This song is one of the most beautiful country music songs I've ever heard.
Sung and written by Richie Furay who was later part of the band Poco.

Yes, they were pretty good, big on the Nashville scene in the 80's. Chris Hillman, formerly of the Byrds & Flying Burrito Brothers, was one of the trio

I have a DVD of them live, it's sooo good. They're just as good as they were years before.
