The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

Listening in 2024. This music will live forever.
Unfortunately not. Today's generations listen almost exclusively to rap. They will never know the joys of real music such as this:(
Yes....I agree 100% Truly timeless....only 2 minutes but one of the most glorious and perfect songs ever ❤❤
The Birds music is based on folk music or more accurately European peoples folk music. Its timeless because the themes(their two main hits) and underlining music is tribal and about the nature of existence.
Seasons, balance, etc etc.
At least that's my assertion on it from reading about them and what I know of Euro folkish heritage.
All people have their own version of folksiness, because we all came from a tribal/nature setting.
To touch the soul of a people so to speak.
The sound of the rickenbacker 12 string is absolutely unique and amazing.
Danelectro can get close to that sound. Jangly bright tone.
The Church (Marty Wilson-Piper) made great use of the 12 string Rick throughout their career - I guess that's why some people say The Church sounds like The Byrds mets Pink Floyd..
They are lip syncing to the record.
@@peterparker7121 how's that relevant? It's still the sound of a 12 string Rick.
@@zoeherriot It's the sound of a 12-string Rick in the studio. Anybody can perform miracles in the recording studio.
We will never see music like this again.
Or hair cuts....
the lemon twigs, just released a new album
There are other bands out there like this
The Lemon Twigs like others are just lucky enough to have connections to be heard
hhmm... maybe just me... i tend to listen to music..🤣 yea, i can view videos.. 🙃
We will never see music again!
People who were kids or even teenagers in the 60s are so lucky to have grown up with such wonderful music like this.
yea... you see... we had our issues and discussion with parents.. to be allowed to let the hair grow long.. yep.. in hindsight, does seem weird... 🤣🤣
I've said that for years now. I'm 68 now and the music of my youth still sounds fresh to me.
I’m 35 but my parents always played this music, and I think that’s why I love it. I’m glad they shared it with me. :)
more innocent time.
@@semyaza555 go and ask the young guys who were in Vietnam
RIP the three members of The Byrds
David Crosby (August 14, 1941 - January 18, 2023), aged 81
Gene Clark (November 17, 1944 - May 24, 1991), aged 46
Michael Clarke (June 3, 1946 - December 19, 1993), aged 47
You will be remembered as legends
What did the other 2 members die of and so young?
@@alicesears68 Michael Clarke - died of liver failure,
Gene Clark - long time substance abuser and diagnosed with throat cancer.
The final version of the Byrds lost Skip Batten ,bassist and the unbelievable Clarence White on guitar ,they were the best live band
I suspected as drugs were so big then in the 60's-80's. Some died in the 90's and still do. It is SO sad so many artists and celebrities have died due to substance abuse/overdose, and some from liver failure, usually due to alcoholism at that age(40's/50's). Some probably before. Crosby was no saint and was in jail twice but he made it to 81. I believe it is believed he died from liver failure although they really dont say. Maybe tonight they will. The family asked for privacy. I liked the band and C, S, & Nash but the famous songs were the originals of Bob Dylan.
@@alicesears68 youre so right and yet roger mcguinn perhaps the unofficial leader of the byrds is in good shape as of 2022 and still has his voice.
This music is about 100 times better than any of the shit today.
I play my Bob Dylan covers like The Byrds do. But I do Bob Dylan's Isis like Bob Dylan.
I second that
when I was a teenager in the end of the 80's I fell in love with the music from the 60's. A shame I missed it. This is real music!
Byrds is the word. Byrds, byrds, byrds is the word.
I remember watching this as a nine year old. The next day I marched to the corner drug store and bought me a pair of little blue rectangular sunglasses.
Groooovy man!
@@gregorymcgee100 Yeah, baby, yeah!!!
now do they not look like they were a prop?
I had a pair too. They were called "Granny Glasses." Good times.
@@kilgoretrout5895 - I’ve read that it was McGuinn’s look that actually inspired a bespectacled Lennon to start wearing glasses again.
A great song never sounds old .
The song came out in 1965 that’s pretty old
Timeless
3 songs from 1965 this one,Like A Rolling Stone and Satisfaction. Entirely changed music and really can't be topped.
Shut up.
@@aaronaragon7838 what is your problem bro
I absolutely love the harmony in this song. The Byrds are simply amazing
Indeed❤
The Byrds!...GOAT..
First 5 seconds of this song are everything. Transports me right back to a time and place long ago.
Me too. I remember being in my early teens and hearing this being played on the music boats that went down the river Thames with revellers all drinking and dancing and longing to be old enough to go myself. Halcyon days they seemed to be.
I try not to listen to them too often, that way the feeling is so much more powerful. Its like a time machine.
This song has been used countless times to represent the 60's. So much so I stopped liking it and I have negative images attached to it.. but when you hear the rest of it in total there is more complexity to it and its really a great song.
Ditto
Having my first joint 4 25 yrs listening smoking 🚬 skywalker kush hits like tyson
What is missing in today's music is Melody, vocals and simplicity
what is really missing ..... are singers ... who don't need a dancing troupe of 40 fake dancers. Just sing with a 4 piece band ... and AUTOTUNE should be BANNED and ILLEGAL
I agree. Today's acts require a bunch of flashy lights and dancers who hardly wear anything jumping and prancing all over the stage. The singers have outrageous make-up on, pierced beads all over their face, and rings hanging from their nose and chin. They wear hideous outfits with tattoos all over their body. Today's bands need to concentrate on their performance and leave the filth behind.
There is nothing but homogenous simplicity in "music" now. It's designed that way on purpose. It's 100% garbage
Very true. In so many of today's songs the music overpowers the vocals. Music is supposed to simply accompany the vocals, to smooth it out with a melody.
aka talent n class
This is what a musical legend looks like.
So just wondering why not very many bands played live on the ed sulivan show?
@@chriswarner5594 If the Byrds did, it would sound pretty different, since it was studio musicians who played most of what you hear.
@@chriswarner5594 The Doors did once and were never invited back.
@@mckessa17 is there a video of the doors on sullivan?
@@chriswarner5594 Sure young man just google it.
Every once in a while I get reminded of how great music was back then. Songs like this literally transport me back to the memories of my youth. Such simple times.
This incredibly beautiful song was written by Bob Dylan as were several of the Byrds greatest hits.
Turned a Dylan dud into a Masterpiece
same with Hendrix, All Along the Watchtower.
@@jaymudd2817 They took the songs to a new level, absolutely, but without Dylan there is no Byrds or Hendrix version. And Bob Dylan record sales exceed 145 million. The Byrds have sold probably 3 million records. Hendrix record sales are around 26 million. Practically everyone who bought records in the 60s had a Dylan LP or two.
@@jamesmorelandoliver8897 Shame on me, perhaps I should stick to Political comments, the main reason I like You Tube.
@@jaymudd2817 It's not your fault if you weren't of age in the 60s. Back then Bob Dylan was a major influence in music and social consciousness. And he's still writing incredible songs, like "Make You Feel My Love" and "Moonlight" and the list just goes on and on. His later albums. like "Love And Theft" prove to me he's still producing songs that will live on.
Bob Dylan did a heck of a lot of hard work and had the FAMOUS song 'Rainy Day Women.'
Ich war 14 als ich dieses Lied zum erten male hörte und es blieb bis heute ( 72 J. ) ein Ohrwurm
No doubt about it: The Byrds in their original incarnation from 1965-1967 were the greatest American group of all time and Gene Clark is the most under-recognized genius in the history of R&R!
What you said cannot be contested. Correct on all counts.
I couldn't agree more, Gene Clark was a genius songwriter, singer and guitarplayer
Totally agree !!! 👍
Roger is very underrated also.
@@JoeKoOhNo I totally agree with you! Whether he be Roger or Jim, Monsewer McGuinn's prowess is VASTLY underrated! I much prefer his approach to the guitar than the generation of over-indulgent and over- deified blooze wankers who made the late-60's and the first 2/3'rds of the 70's such an ordeal for me.
It's impossible to overstate the historical importance of this amazing performance! The world was never the same again.
You are really overstating things. The world was not affected at all by this song.
Wrong band on Ed Sullivan's show. That's the Beatles you're thinking of.
@@Nonamearisto😅lol
ya, then the 80's was the last hope.
exactly my thoughts. that innocence.
I feel so sorry for young people today...They haven't a clue about the music of the 60's and 70's. Total heavyocity !!!!!
Moin Richard, das geht mir ganz genau so. Was hatten wir für ein Glück, dass wir in der Zeit jung waren. Lieben Gruß aus Berlin 😍🖐️
Hey I'm only 20 and I love these classic songs filled with serenity.
@@iam.jeet_20 Hey...Check out....The Byrds...."I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better"....Great stuff...from my youth!
@@iam.jeet_20 Hey...Mr. Tambourine Man...is cool but tame....Try The Byrds again...but this time playing Rock'n Roll...."I'll Feel A Whole Better" They knock that sucker out of the park!
In those days I was a licensed P.I and bodyguard and I was around them all during that period - 60's 70's.....Ultra Cool....
i was 15 years old and im 70 now still sounds great
In 1965, I would have been 20; now 75. Yeah, a blast from the past.
Must have been a real good time to be around
@@wally6887 It certainly was, so much hope for the future.
70 next year for me. I miss those days.
@@wally6887 - Except for that jungle across the Pacific. I was 15 yo in 65. Just starting to hear Uncle Walter talking about it.
Memories of a better time.
Please let the music touch me just one more time, peace and love world, give someone a flower today. LOVE
Oh jaaa - once a hippie, ever a hippie - Hello from Berlin, Germany 😍
I met Gene Clark in Dallas, Texas at a little club called Mother Blues. He was traveling around the US with two other musicians. Gene sat with me after each set. I was floating.
I saw Lightning Hopkins there twice. Once, right in front of him. Good times.
One of my favourite 60’s songs ever! Doesn’t get any better 👍
The very best of the entire decade, imho 👍
Same here love this song
It's only 2 minutes of pure ear paradise. Why the euphoria moments in every sight of things are so short -_-
Just love everything about this song. You can keep your 21st century music. All the best stuff was made in the 20th century .
This GenXer agrees 100% !!
@@prankster671 This boomer asks... it stops at 100%? 😁
Most in 1965 , like this one !
Bit of a lopsided hollow victory. This century's a twenty year old and as long as groups like The War On Drugs keep coming along, a band that likely eclipses in talent and creativity many of the groups you dote on, there's every possibility that this could be a smashing 100 years!
@@rogermurray8553 war on drugs average at best sound like a poor mans simple minds . That's the trouble most of it's all been done before
Thanks to Ed Sullivan we can reminisce to the best sixties music.
I was old enough to hear a fair amount of ‘60s music on the radio in So Cal - I weep for the young today who cannot hear for essentially nothing the best pop music perhaps of the last several centuries -
Best intro in music history - that bass line, that Rickenbacker 12-string guitar riff - just 2 seconds in everyone knows what song this is
Totally agree with you there.
Best intro and outro ever !!!!
The best part is Michael Clarke miming along behind McGuinn and trying not to laugh.
Funny he was slouching and then straightens up for a sec, then goes right back into it. Wonder what was going through his mind?
He really is fun to watch here!
Que jenero musical es the byrds
@@franciscocruz4740Folk rock
One cannot underestimate the effect this version of this song had on the music of the time
Boy I've been waiting for the last 9 years to see this whole footage. It finally came!
i know that feeling
Wow!! That long?? Why??
Because many videos in Ed Sullivan's channel were uploaded just for a few seconds, and it had happened for many years. The unnoficial channels that tried to post the whole performance of the song were blocked by UA-cam. So I have been waiting since 2012, and luckly this channel started up posting whole songs and not just few seconds.
@@victorhugobarcelos1523 whoever's in charge of the "Ed Sullivan Show" archive probably realized that there's a lot more money in UA-cam streaming now than trying to sell DVDs. That's likely why they used to only post short sections of the clips to encourage people to buy the DVD set.
I was 8 years old and still remember watching this and a lot of the Sullivan music acts. I wish I was 8 again. the world was a better place!
I was 7 that year. And yes, you're right.
One of the most incredible groups of our time.🚀👍
Yes, and the hair styles are interesting. Long hair seems to have been quite popular back then.
Damn I’m early. McGuinn’s Rickenbacker looking good as always!
@John Jones Roger McGuinn
I absolutely love the Rickenbacker !
Yep! Love dem Rickys!
Believe it or not, I owned one just exactly like that one Jim/Roger is playing!! Mine was a Dec '67. His was prob. made '64..Think he got that one stolen. Sadly had to sell mine and a Matchless Chieftain 2x12 Amp for house pymnts. Wish l had 'em both back! I still have my orig. first Apr '67 FireGlo 360/12, my first elect. guitar..That's a keeper!!
@@tom.hoffmann6585 Oh, yes!! Extremely unique indtrument!! A law unto itself!!
This was the greatest in innovative time in America for producing quality music. That time is over now with mediocre artists and musicians.
Phony so-called music with AutoTune bs from computers. I'll pass😢
Those Dude were too cool for the time , with their long hair ( for 1965 anyway ) and Roger (Jim) McGuinn with those cool blue square sunglasses and David Crosby rocking the Duster and Gene Clark an amazing talent taken from us way too soon RIP 🙏🏼😔😢 , you guys were always trendsetters ! Long live the real Byrds 1964-1966 🤩 ❤️🎸
That Dec of 65 my dad was on his first Tour as a US MARINE in the city of Hue . He ended up doing 2 tours his heaviest battle was Khe Shan in 68 he finally came home Feb of 69. He was with 3rd Batt 26th Marines INDIA Company as an F.O. Calling in Air strikes. We lost him in 2005 to Leukemia due to Agent orange .
So very sorry to hear this, J. Chris..We thank him posthumously for his service involving a shitty, dirty, useless war. Lost a couple friends over there. too..One drowned, two shot up in a firefight!! So horrible. Thanks for letting us know. Agent Orange was a terribly nefarious , insidious killer!! If the enemy's bullets didn't get our Vets, that shit did in delayed reaction.
My most sincere condolences and heart felt respect for your father. Mine was a Naval Aviator that flew missions there somewhat earlier. We lost him in 79 to cancer. Semper Fi from an Anchors Away.
@@blindsquirrel7802 god bless you and your Family
@@samburkes7552 Thank you def appreciated i will have a beer for you an as always for my Dad.
I’m sorry for your loss. A true patriot.
The Byrds were one of the best groups at that time......Hey Mr.Tamberine man play a song for me....a classic
I’m 51 and grew up with this music because of my dad had a band since 1959 10th grade and heard this music all my life. So today I still listen to this music. Thanks dad! 😀
David Crosby, a voice of a generation
Your music touched the hearts of many
With your guitar in hand, you sang of love and peace
Your words and melodies will live on forever
You were a pioneer, a trailblazer
In the world of music, you were a true innovator
Your voice and harmonies were unmistakable
A sound that will be deeply missed
Though you are gone, your legacy remains
Your songs will continue to inspire
And your spirit will live on in the hearts of those who loved you
Farewell, dear David Crosby
You will be forever remembered
Your music will live on forevermore
Rest in peace, dear musician.
Thank you. So well said. You have expressed what we all feel. RIP Mr. Crosby.
Beautiful!! I couldn’t have said it better! Rest In Peace our Beloved David Crosby🙏
The stanza for our Generation : Keep on "Rockin in the Free World"
Name ONE song that Crosby wrote. I'll be waiting for your response. He was fortunate to have been around ultra talented band members, but Crosby's actual contribution is very iffy.
He was renowned as an asshole, and a very mixed-up drug addict. He famously referred to Joe Biden as "a decent guy."
I cannot honestly think of any other person that has referred to Biden as a decent guy, and I'm a Democrat. The only intelligent thing that I know about Crosby is that he supported Bernie Sanders.

Written by Bob Dylan, but The Byrds recorded a very good version of it.
Read that the only Byrd to play on the studio recording was Roger M.
Not unlike “Leaving on a Jet Plane” popularized by Peter, Paul, and Mary written by John Denver.
I love both versions! It's hard to choose which one is the best lol😊😊
I think I prefer Dylan’s to this. His feels more intimate.
The best version of all time.
This is the definition of a cool look and most certainly Rock and Roll
Chris Hillman!
@@Ruda-n4h Very under-estimated back.then! He looked bored, uninterested..a great mandolin player, bassist, acoustic rhythm guitarist, great singer in the Desert Rose Band now..But here, he's just backing the guys playing that Guild bass!
@@Ruda-n4h Chris lookin' cool!
Sept. 7, 2021...I'm 52 and this song STILL stuns me every time I listen to it.
McGuinn's little blue sunglasses were iconic.
The Byrds covered Dylan a few times and gave the songs a whole new side, their harmonys were something else. They inspired many bands of the last 30 years esp from the UK..
The Byrds didn't "cover" Dylan songs. McGuinn REWROTE them often working from rough demo recordings provided by Dylan's publisher. Dylan pitched "Tambourine Man" to them in order to get them to record it. Byrds manager Jim Dickson was a Dylan fan and Peter, Paul and Mary already had a hit with their RENDITION of "Blowing In The Wind". "Covering" a tune is when someone tried to copy someone else's hit. Dylan didn't even recognize the Byrds versions when he heard them live but kept providing them with unreleased demo's up to 1969.
Goodbye David, you left a great legacy with your wonderful music... 😭😭😭

I was 5 months old when this performance took place on Ed Sullivan. I'll also never forget meeting David Crosby in LA and shaking his hand 35 years later.
You met David Crosby then waited another 35 years to shake his hands? Dedication! . . . respect !!!
@@DustyDingoPhotoshahaha you got me 🙄
Love Roger McGuinn's voice. His vocals really suited this classic song.
Classic and never gets old
David Crosby August 14 1941 To January 19 2023
RIP😢 Your Wonderful Contribution To The Music World Will Be Missed.🎸🥁🎙 🌺🌻🌼🌷
The 60’s was the best!! Amazing how the music still jams 60 plus years later!! What a generation it was!!!!!
This dazzling haunting song was released during March 1965, 9 months before Rubber Soul was during December 1965 and so Mr Tambourine Man is a strong contender for being the very first psychedelic rock song.
It was one of the first songs to be dubbed folk rock in the media
Bob Dylan wrote so many wonderful songs and this is one of them. Great cover from The Byrds. Greetings from Slovenia
Mc Guinn was just too cool with those blue shades back in ‘65
Roger, Gene, David, Chris. The original classic lineup.
And Michael.
@@marks.3303 He wasnt exactly the best drummer ( Quoting Dave Crosby), but he held his own and looked good behind the kit..
@@samburkes7552 Mike Clarke was added to the group because of his resemblance to Brian Jones but he still played the drums well. I don't know what his background was as a drummer but I saw the Byrds in concert and he did fine.
The truth is, you can't take David Crosby too seriously. His ego was the reason why Gene Clark played tambourine instead of guitar and he later tried to take control of the group. That ultimately led to his dismissal from the group.
Don't forget Ringo
David is Leo. Leo men always want to be the leader.
The Byrds FOREVERMORE 🎸
they are one of the most influential bands ever!
like the late Tom Petty remarked... Nobody sounded like them at the time...a class all to their own.
Long live the Music and Legacy of The Byrds.
One of the most iconic intro and outro ever . The Ric and then the Bass !!!!!! 🤩
Bless their souls, they were so talented. Real singing!
Splendid harmonies swirling around in this true classic.
One of the greatest songs, one of the greatest groups, from the greatest Era of rock & roll.
The greatest songs are timeless no matter when they came out, this is certainly one of them.
Quite possibly my favourite song of all time. Cannot get enough of this heavenly music.
Great analogue snap and pop. I love the diasporic trajectory of this band!! They spewed talent everywhere like a powerful soaking gorgeous musical rain. Most notably Lauren Canyon
The Byrds is. A great group and great Song
The pig crosby
The world is filled with too much hate and anger.
The Times we are living in, are not worthy of this sound.
Perhaps one day it will be again. The world has never been at peace but people were never this angry.
Full agreement with that, 👍👏👏👏👏🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
1965 was hardly a peaceful time either. Filled with segregation and the rising of the Vietnam War, those songs were the refuge of a generation in clash with the world they were growing up in.
Encore une figure des nostalgiques années 60 qui s’en va …… rest in peace David Crosby ♥️♥️♥️
Rip Crosby. Thanks for all the great music and memories.
Love you David rest easy you peaceful man 💖 you made my teen years so much better
great songs never die
I lost count on how many times this 45 Columbia single was played on my old record player. The Byrds were a great group that captured the heartbeat of America. Thanks for posting.
Roger McGuinn on the right is such a delightful man. We ate BBQ at Willie Nelson's golf course in 88.. I didn't recognize him until after we ate and introduced ourselves!!! I about fell off my chair ..He is a born again Christian today!!!
yo this shit is fire. It has style a lasting style that nowadays music doesn't.
Superb. The Sixties had it all. Class, melody, harmony and integrity. Hip-Hop sucks!
The Byrds, Fantástic Band 🥁🤘
Byrds had great musicians, songs and band altogether ~ It resembles some songs made by Beatles, but I still can see some unique differences in their music - these songs truly bring back the nostalgia of those awesome years 60-70-80-'90's --- When music used to be music - That's all we can have and go by every time we want to hear amazing songs/music - blessings.
One of my all-time fav 60s songs. Rest in peace David Crosby ❤🕊 {2023}

@@chriswesterfield2042 you started your comment by saying crosby is overrated, and then proceeded to say nothing about any of his music. Sounds like youre just a hater
There was no one like them in 1965-66. The chiming 12- string guitar, the Dylan covers, and such great harmonies, and sometimes billed as the American Beatles. They defined “folk-rock”, and later were in the vanguard of country-rock. Gene Clark and McGuinn were geniuses, stellar musicians all, Crosby to CSN, and Hillman to he Flying Burrito Brothers with later Byrd, Gram Parsons.
This is my favourite version. What a classic
I love the bass on this. The way it sort of slides in. Fantastic!
David Crosby without a mustache is just strange.
Baby Croz
Music that brings me sweet memories! The Byrds amazing group from a wonderful time. Thanks for sharing.
The Wrecking Crew nailed it !!
yep, this "performance" was lip synched to the studio recording
I wonder if that's why the bass player looked so unenthusiastic
Besides being a great version of a Dylan Tune, a young not bad looking David Crosby wow, amazing what substance abuse can do to the human form, he's one very lucky dude, along with Keith Richards
Could not agree more. You see him today and it is hard to believe what you see.
@@deandewey5584 He's 80 fuckin years old, how is he suppose to look?
@@jamdwhi - better
He'd look the same, Dean. The only substance that thoroughly took hold of him was cuisine, and a failure to make appropriately timed retreats from the breakfast, lunch and dinner tables. He IS though the American equivalent of Beatle Paul in that they have both created an astounding 50 years of highly forgettable music!
The words in this song has very serious meaning..I'm glad for Bob Dylan one of most educator of the 60s..
Gotta love The Byrds, great music!
The drummer was having the best time. Adorable.
Hello Mary how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
The greatest recording of all time by the greatest band of all time.
Can't argue with that.Great video.
When I first saw this as a teenager the first thing I did was score a pair of those shades, coolest thing ever, still have that song in my mental jukebox!
What a pleasure to watch this, even after decades, it's so uplifting..... oh to be young again :(
I love how David always has a smile on his face when he sings. His beard hide this later in life. RIP David. I love you brother.
RIP David, the Byrds was one of my favourite bands x
Byrds were the first US band to start wearing their hair like the Beatles and Stones, but they weren't the last! Lol. Anyway, this is SUCH a great, groundbreaking song for them. That jangly guitar and laid back vocals were brilliant!
Actually the Beatles started that, of course it was a hairstyle but it was worn by Indians over 100 years even before the Beatles, the stones just took their hair and so did all of the other people.
Yes, they certainly were!! Definitely laid a precedent with this style of electr. folk rock!! Happened at the very right time!!
The Beatles haircut began as a imitation of some german avant garde artists that combed their hair to the front as the ancient romans.
All of this time I thought they were British.
It was actually the Standells in 1964 who started it doing it first. But The Byrds popularized it, no doubt.
an awesome song by an awesome band. Was happy to see Chris Hillman in concert a few years ago in Kent Ohio.
My Mother lived next store to The Byrds in Long Beach, CA. She told me stories of her sneaking off to watch them practice in their garage. I miss Mom and this just reminded me of her and the amazing music she had back in her day.
These are the Byrds I have always loved. I wish they had lasted longer. That "jingle jangle" sound sends my soul to Heaven !
Loved the Byrds. The music was real.
