Chris Hillman Premieres "Here She Comes Again," Featuring Roger McGuinn

Chris Hillman and Roger McGuinn—two founding members of the Byrds—recently teamed up to record "Here She Comes Again," a song they co-wrote almost 40 years ago.

Below, you can check out our exclusive premiere of the super-catchy song, a standout track from Hillman's new album, Bidin' My Time. It'll be released September 22 via Rounder Records and is available now for preorder.

“It’s a song Roger and I wrote in the late Seventies that was never recorded,” Hillman told Guitar World. “The only version I had was from a live show. I always wanted to record it; it’s so reminiscent of the 1965-to-1966 Byrds.”

Simply put, Bidin' My Time is a must-own for fans of Hillman and the Byrds. Besides "Here She Comes Again," which features McGuinn on his Rickenbacker 360/12 and Hillman on his signature Guild Byrds Bass, the album features new versions of three mid- to late-Sixties Byrds recordings:

• "The Bells of Rhymney" (featuring David Crosby, another Byrds co-founder, on harmony vocal; this one appeared on the Byrds' debut album, 1965's Mr. Tambourine Man)

• "New Old John Robertson" (an updated version of "Old John Robertson," a Hillman-McGuinn composition from 1968's The Notorious Byrd Brothers)

• "She Don't Care About Time" (a Gene Clark composition from 1965, originally released as the B-side to "Turn! Turn! Turn!").

"For 'New Old John Robertson,' I did a slight rewrite last year," Hillman said. "I just added a bridge with all due respect to Roger. Gene Clark’s wonderful 'She Don’t Care About Time'—I've always loved it. Such a haunting lyric.

"I wish we could have all been together in the studio, but scheduling didn’t permit [it]," Hillman added. "David has worked with me in the studio in the past, and it's always a pleasure. Roger graciously added a guitar part from his studio at home in Florida."

Bidin' My Time was produced by Tom Petty and executive produced by Herb Pedersen, who performs on pretty much every song on the album. The disc also features performances by several members of Petty's Heartbreakers (including Mike Campbell on B-bender guitar), not to mention Desert Rose Band alumni (banjoist/guitarist/vocalist Pedersen, guitarist John Jorgenson and pedal steel guitarist JayDee Maness, who played on the Byrds’ iconic Sweetheart of the Rodeo album in 1968).
