about

This track was recorded specifically for the Gene Clark Tribute disc, Full Circle, which was released on Not lame Recordings. I was fortunate enough to participate in tow Byrds/Gene Clark tribute shows in the wake of this release: one at The Bottom Line in NYC, and another at The Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. The full double CD is still available on Amazon.

Here's some info on the song:

In the spring of 1971, Clark was commissioned by Dennis Hopper to contribute the tracks "American Dreamer" and "Outlaw Song" to Hopper's film project American Dreamer. A re-recorded, longer version of the song "American Dreamer" was later used in the 1977 film The Farmer, along with an instrumental version of the same song plus "Outside the Law (The Outlaw)" (a re-recording of "Outlaw Song"). The song "American Dreamer" appears on the soundtrack.
