'>The Byrds looms large in the annals of contemporary rock, ever increasingly so as it pertains to the late Gene Clark. One of its main vocalists, he is usually seen stage center in the alignment of the original band in performance, a position that stands as an apt metaphor for his contributions to the hallowed group: Clark was the chief composer of original material, so songs like 'Set You Free This Time' and 'It Won't Be Wrong' filled the track-lists on early albums Mr. Tambourine Man (Columbia, 1965) and Turn! Turn! Turn! (Columbia, 1965), while his slightly husky tenor (just slightly tremulous) provided genuinely emotional contrast to the soaring group harmonies. Conflicting reasons exist for Clark's departure from the Byrds in 1966, those contradictory circumstances tainting his image for a period of time, but, this gifted artist's cachet has risen incrementally with the passing years, not coincidentally beginning with reparations in the form of the box set There Is A Season (Legacy, 2006) supervised by former bandmates Roger (nee Jim) McGuinn and Chris Hillman. Subsequent releases of his later work, as a solo artist and in collaboration with Doug Dillard, the Gosdin Brothers and Carla Olson, among others, preceded these two additional documents of his prolific nature, adding momentum to that worthwhile historical progression.

Slightly more than half the length of its counterpart, this fourteen track compilation serves as a crucial missing link in the vagaries of Gene Clark's post-Byrds career. Standing as reaffirmation of the man's support of the quintet (even beyond appearing with them on stage), those half-dozen tracks proffer the pragmatic support of original material for a group suffering a paucity of same even as those songs of nurture the Rose Garden's stylistic emulation of his former band. Like his exhaustive history on the package's companion piece, essayist John Einarson's liner notes are more extensive than the musician credits. But that only points up the solidity of the bulk of the material Clark was demonstrating for his own purposes and offering to his kindred spirits; just as often acoustic as electric, his songs (usually but not always) transcend his debt to Dylan so the flow of the words meshes naturally with the melodies to the haunting effect radiating from 'Doctor Doctor.' 'Past Tense' and 'Till Today,' (included on the RG album) are just two other instances suggesting how Gene Clark, even given his erratic productivity in later years, he continued to cement the cross-fertilization of contemporary folk and rock milieu he first helped formulated in his somewhat unjustly overlooked linchpin role in the Byrds.

Conceived itself as a direct extension of the seminal folk-rock sound of the '>The Byrds, the mutual attraction between The Rose Garden and Gene Clark made perfect sense because as documented on these twenty-six tracks (fourteen of which are previously unreleased), the quintet suffered a dearth original material. Accordingly, the pragmatic support of the former Byrd was fully in line with the quintet's even more direct homage to sources including '>Bob Dylan and '>Neil Young, an approach even more overt in a live setting: four tracks from a high school concert feature compositions from Sonny Bono and Bo Diddley.
Studio producers Charles Greene and Brian Stone, who also helmed the early work of Buffalo Springfield, made sure the Rose Garden album and single recordings here hewed to commercial considerations effectively outdated. at the time of completion in 1968. Thus, as dated as the artwork on this package and notwithstanding the group's hit single of December 1967, 'Next Plane to London,' A Trip Through The Rose Garden would be only a footnote in rock history without the crucial connection to a founding member of the Byrds, that is, if the style the latter band fostered didn't eventually become so influential with the passage of time and in the next century, reappear in slightly modified form as 'Americana.'

Megaupload fans flock to rival file-sharing services after FBI shuts down site and arrests founder

• Instead of abandoning file-sharing, users flock to rival sites
• Huge surge in traffic to rivals such as Rapidshare
• One site, 4Share is twice the size Megaupload was before it shut down

Rivals to Megaupload have seen a huge rise in traffic after file-sharing site Megaupload was shut down by the FBI and its flamboyant founder arrested in a high-profile raid.

After the FBI shut down file-sharing site Megaupload and charged staff such as flamboyant founder Kim Dotcom - formerly Kim Schmitz - with copyright violations, users have flocked to rivals such as RapidShare, Hotfile and 4Shared.

If the American authorities hoped that the move would dent the popularity of such 'cyber-locker' sites which are mainly used for sharing music and video for free they have been very much mistaken.

Rapidshare, Hotfile and 4Shared, have reaped the rewards of the arrest of Megaupload's 'pirate captain' Kim Dotcom.

One site, 4Shared, which has 2.5bn page views per month, is now twice the size Megaupload was before it shut down and the others have seen the numbers using their services nearly doubled.

The high life: Dotcom, formerly known as Kim Schmitz and nicknamed 'Dr Evil', was arrested along with three other executives of Megauploads on Friday

Taken down: The Megaupload.com homepage boasted the endorsement of a string of high-profile celebrities

4Shared is currently the subject of legal action in New Jersey, with a firm, Modulo Security Solutions, seeking to reveal the identities of individuals who uploaded and shared confidential documents.

The 'cyberlocker' sites let users store large files and download them from anywhere.

MegaUpload, which the U.S. government shut down, was a Hong Kong-based ‘cyberlocker’ service that allegedly allowed users to download pirated films, TV shows, music and e-books with just a few clicks.

It is accused of costing copyright owners £322million in lost earnings and of making £113million by selling advertising and premium subscriptions.

The traffic surge following Megaupload's closure is an embarrassment to many of the firms involved as it shines an unwelcome spotlight on how they operate.

Such sites are keen to emphasise their legality in the wake of Megaupload's difficulties.

'This case has a great negative impact on file storage services and the Internet overall,' a 4Shared spokesman said.

'4shared has some of the most strict house rules among all other file storage services and there’s no need for any changes.'

Cyberlocker sites are legal, and operate in the same way as YouTube - in that they take down illegal files whenever told to by copyright holders.

As with YouTube, the volume of files means that every upload cannot be manually inspected.

Megaupload is accused of knowingly violating copyright.

Several Megaupload staff were arrested in New Zealand last week on copyright charges. The FBI also allege that the site was used for money-laundering.

Its founder, 'Kim Dotcom' - formerly Kim Schmitz - owned a £3million collection of 25 cars which was confiscated at the time of his arrest – mainly top-of-the range Mercedes with number plates such as ‘STONED’, ‘HACKER’ and ‘GUILTY’ but also including Maseratis, a vintage pink Cadillac and Dotcom’s runabout, a £300,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom with the number plate ‘GOD’.

Confiscated: Others cars including a collection of Mercedes vehicles were removed from the Schmitz's home

Although music stars such as Kanye West and Alicia Keys have supported MegaUpload, film and record companies say the seven-year-old file-sharing site is making a fortune off their work without paying them a penny.

Hollywood film companies have been the main victims of piracy. The seven accused MegaUpload executives – including two other Germans and a Dutchman also seized in New Zealand – are each charged with five counts of racketeering, copyright infringement and conspiracy, and could be jailed for up to 20 years.
