A fascinating interview and a unique historical document which examines the significance of this unforgettable Sixties band. McGuinn exudes an unusually gifted musical perspective which still speaks to us today. The Byrds always offered a distinctive style with lyrics and songs of unique character, timeless grace and perpetual impact.

Only really just realised how fantastic the Byrds actually was. Obviously i knew Tamborine Man (& think their version is better then Dylan's- sorry, lol), but never knew too much about them (being born maybe 20 years 2 late 2 be there lol) until reading about the similarities or the influence they had on The Stone Roses (which i love =D). Now i cant get enough of them!! Play their songs all the time! Great sound, great style, great..... era!! The times right for that scene to make its come back!

5:00 and on, Dylan reminds me of Adam Sandler in the wedding singer, at the time where he's just been left and is completely hungover, but still performing :D

GREAT upload though!

Try finding a Rickenbacker 12 string nowadays

@freqazoidiac If you're talking about the clip when Dylan joins them on stage then no it's not. It's Chris Hillman (now that you mention it I can see the resemblance though haha). Strange how the interviewer only mentions Crosby's name when introducing the clip.

[freqazoidiac]

Back From Rio. Have had it and enjoyed it ever since it was first released. Great album, and deserves more attention than it has received....
