Clarence White: slide guitar
Skip Batton: bass
Gene Parsons: drums
Produced by Terry Melcher 1970
The studio LP was recorded at Columbia Studios, Hollywood CA by Terry Melcher (the other LP is live)This was the most stable and longest lived of any configuration of The Byrds, lasting 3 years without personnel changes. The band still had not made up their minds regarding an album title when Terry Melcher, while filling out record company documentation for the album sessions, wrote the placeholder "(Untitled)" in a box specifying the album's title. A misunderstanding ensued and before anyone associated with the band had realized, Columbia Records had pressed up the album with that title, including the parentheses. It was the last real incarnation of the Byrds.

San Francisco CA
Doug Clifford, bass
Stu Cook, drums
John Fogerty, guitar vocals
Tom Fogerty, guitar
Produced by Saul Zaentz – 1968The band recorded this song while they were still using the name The Golliwogs and released it under that name in 1967 on Scorpio Records, a subsidiary of Fantasy. Later that year, Scorpio released it again when the band changed their name to Creedence Clearwater Revival, making it their first single under that moniker.
In 1968, the band was transferred to the main Fantasy Records label, which released the first Creedence Clearwater Revival album, including this song on the track list.
For John Fogerty, this marked a shift in his songwriting style. "Everything changed after that," he said. "I gave up trying to write sappy love songs about stuff I didn't know anything about, and I started inventing stories." The title is never mentioned in the lyrics. It likely refers to the city of Porterville, California

John Baxter Browning Bryant (born January 24, 1957) is an American singer-songwriter, whose greatest commercial popularity was before and during his early teens. In 1974, Bryant's last commercial album was released. New Orleans hit-maker Allen Toussaint produced the album and wrote most of its songs. It featured backing by members of the R&B group The Meters. Though he was 15 and then 16 years old when the album was recorded, his mellifluous vocals are remarkably mature. His three self-penned songs also belie his age, with one, "Cure My Blues", being covered by blues singer Ellen McIlwaine. (Allmusic calls her version "majestic.")

Produced by Bob Matthews, Betty Cantor, Grateful Dead - 1970
Recorded by Alembic at Pacific High Recording Studio, San FranciscoFor the band’s fourth LP, they decided to go back to their roots, bringing country, bluegrass and blues into the mix with a more acoustic sound.
Songs such as "Uncle John's Band", "High Time", and "Cumberland Blues" were brought to life with soaring harmonies and layered vocal textures that had not previously been a part of the band's sound. According to the 1992 Dead oral history, Aces Back to Back, in the summer of 1968, Stephen Stills vacationed at Mickey Hart's ranch in Novato. "Stills lived with me for three months around the time of CSN's first record", recalls Hart, "and he and David Crosby really turned Jerry and Bobby onto the voice as the holy instrument. You know, 'Hey, is this what a voice can do?' That turned us away from pure improvisation and more toward songs."
Garcia commented that much of the sound of the album comes both from his pairing with Hunter, as well as the band's friendship with Crosby, Stills and Nash: "Hearing those guys sing and how nice they sounded together, we thought, 'We can try that. Let's work on it a little'."
Readers of Rolling Stone voted Workingman's Dead the best album of 1970, followed by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's Déjà Vu and Van Morrison's Moondance,
