Talk:Younger Than Yesterday

message: I'm more than a little curious about why that second paragraph about the release being "overshadowed" by the Beatles/Stones/Beach Boys "current releases" was reinserted.
Release date of Younger Than Yesterday -- February 6, 1967
Previous Beatles release, per discography -- Revolver, August 8, 1966
Subsequent Beatles release, per discography -- Sgt Pepper, June 2, 1967
Previous Beach Boys releases, per discography -- Pet Sounds, May 16, 1966, and Best Of, July 11, 1966
Subsequent Beach Boys releases, per discography -- Best of 2, July 24, 1967, and Smiley Smile, September 11, 1967
There were two contemporaneous Rolling Stones LPs, but that alone doesn't justified the comment.  Without meaning to be excessively contentious, it strikes me as being speculation without any factual foundation. Monicasdude 07:01, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Overshadowing

message: The recent change of the text from:
:A misreporting of the release date as July 1967 may explain Rolling Stone writer David Fricke's mistaken explanation of the the relatively poor sales in the booklet that accompanied the 1996 CD box set. He suggests that the album's release "was obscured by the windfall of epochal rock albums that spring and summer". In practice, however, the competing albums that he cites were released too late to materially affect sales of Younger than Yesterday.
to
:In its CD liner notes, Rolling Stone writer David Fricke suggests that the album's release "was obscured by the windfall of epochal rock albums that spring and summer", citing current and about-to-be-released albums by The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane and The Doors.
appears to lose the point that Fricke may have misremembered/been misinformed about the release date (not, that he cited the error in the notes). As I understand it, Fricke's argument is that the other big releases overshadowed the Byrds' new album and diminished its anticipated sales.  In practice, however, the overshadowing releases came after Younger Than Yesterday in a market that is noted for its immediacy.  If we keep Fricke's claim (and I think that we should), it seems appropriate to state that it may be in error. —Theo  (Talk) 08:10, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
