Released on February 6, 1967, the Byrds' fourth album, "Younger Than Yesterday", was more varied than its predecessor and saw the band successfully mixing psychedelia with folk rock and country and western influences. Although it received generally positive reviews upon its release, the album was, to a degree, overlooked by the record-buying public and consequently peaked at number 24 on the "Billboard" chart and number 37 on the UK Albums Chart. However, music expert Peter Buckley has pointed out that although the album may've passed the Byrds' rapidly shrinking teen audience by, it found favor with "a new underground following who disdained hit singles, but were coming to regard albums as major artistic statements."
