Gene Clark - Silver Raven

                                                                  The Ritz, NYC     (1985)

                                              Silver Raven (album No Other)

                 Gene Clark,Michael Clarke,Mark Andes,Peter Oliva,Mike Hardwick (not sure)

No Other is the fourth solo studio album by American singer-songwriter Gene Clark. Released in September 1974, it was largely ignored or lambasted by critics and was a commercial failure; the studio time and cost were seen as excessive and indulgent.The record label, Asylum Records, did not promote the album, and by 1976 had deleted it from their catalog. Clark never recovered from the failure of the album. It has since been positively reappraised.(,I don't understand that one of my favorite albums from my collection for a long time.)

Dillard & Clark - Polly




Dillard & Clark was a country rock collaboration between ex-Byrds member Gene Clark and bluegrass banjo player Doug Dillard.

                               Polly (Through the Morning, Through the Night)

 Through the Morning, Through the Night is the second and final album from the country rock duo Dillard & Clark, released in September 1969

The musicians included country rock and folk rock pioneers Gene Clark, Doug Dillard, Bernie Leadon, Chris Hillman, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Byron Berline and Michael Clarke. However, the addition of Dillard's girlfriend Donna Washburn as a full-time harmony vocalist (and lead vocalist on "Rocky Top"), replacing Leadon, caused Leadon to leave the group and join Hillman, Clarke and Kleinow in the Flying Burrito Brothers, although he, Hillman and Kleinow appear as "special pickers" on the album. 

                                           


Douglas Flint Dillard (March 6, 1937 – May 16, 2012) was an American musician noted for his banjo proficiency and his pioneering participation in late-'60s country rock
