The Byrds-"Long Tall Sally" & "Not Fade Away"-6/23/65

From the band's first "Shin...." performance on June 23, 1965.

Look how far Roger's glasses fall down his nose, before he pauses to slide them back up!!

Also, a little vocal "Forgetfullness" on "Long Tall Sally". :-)

Obviously, some added six string guitar here on "Not Fade Away" by someone in the "Shin...." house band.

...try both the Byrds & the Stones covering a classic by the late great Buddy Holly you mean - McGuinn, Clark , Crosby & the rest were all huge Buddy Holly & Gene Vincent

Did you know that John Lennon wore his signature glasses because of McGuinn`s?

Love that greasy, Holly-esque vocal Roger drops on "Not Fade Away."
