Review from Record Mirror, July 22, 1989:
The latest in a series of tributes on the Imaginary label, 'Time Between - A Tribute To The Byrds', pays homage to the influence of Roger McGuinn's 'seminal' paisley-shirted outfit who mixed folk, rock and country with electronic effects to create an innovative sound that, at its time, was startingly original, psychedelic and groovy. This album then, mixes reminiscing respect with contemporary styles and offers
invigorating new interpretations, 1-4 artists lending their own peculiarities to a selection from the best" of the Byrds' back catalogue. Thin White Rope, the Icicle Works, Dinosaur Jr, and Nigel and the Crosses (Robyn Hitchcock, REM's Peter Buck and friends) breathe the most life into their versions, the rest of the contributors also making impressive use of the given material and their own skills. Best of the lot though, comes from Giant Sand, whose working of 'Change Is Now· is gorgeously weird and spacey. Headbands on! (DC)
