The Rose Garden is the self-titled and only album from the American folk rock group of the same name. It was released in April 1968 on Atco Records and included their Top 20 hit "Next Plane to London".
The band was heavily influenced by the Byrds' style of vocal harmony and 12-string guitar blending and the album includes two Gene Clark compositions, "Till Today" and "Long Time".[1] The group also recorded "Rider", which was first recorded by the Byrds in 1966, but not yet released. The only original composition was "Flower Town".[2] Originally issued by Atco Records, it was reissued on CD by Collector's Choice Music. Atco's current distributing label Rhino Records has made this album available for digital downloads.
