"The Byrds' Roger McGuinn Releasing First Rock Album In 14 Years ... Camilla McGuinn wrote: "Sweet Memories is the first studio rock CD that Roger McGuinn has recorded since 2004. It is the CD fans have been asking for at Roger's concerts. They are continually asking for a studio version of the Byrds songs. So, Roger re-recorded three Byrds hits from scratch and they were so artistically performed that everyone asks,'Did you use samples?' The answer is no! He played every instrument and sang every vocal including harmonies on 'Turn, Turn, Turn,' `Mr. Tambourine Man' and 'So You Want To Be A Rock N' Roll Star.' There are also nine other songs never recorded before."".

"A Byrd encaged ... This is the first conventional studio album since 2004 ... The trademark Rickenbacker rings throughout on a set that takes in hits ... musically this is mostly his own work (apart from guest guitar from Marty Stuart) playing a collection of guitars both electric and acoustic, banjo, bass and even drums".
