The Byrds-"Do You Believe In Magic"-10/4/65

This is preceded of course by the pre-recorded music/live vocals version of "The Times They Are A Changin'".

Keep watching to the end. :-)

"Do you believe like I do believe"? :-)

The guests on "Hulla..." would always sing a snippett of whatever was "Top 5" that week, and The Byrds ended up w/Spoonful. :-)

I get a kick out of the "Byrds phrasing" too:

"How the music can free her whenever it starts.....It's magic".

Hullabaloo and Shindig were great shows to catch a glimpse of your favorite musciscal groups in the 60’s…

@harvey1954 the show was "black comedy" best I'm told.

What creative genius thought up the duck hunting motif?

@unclebobunclebob Never mind. It's tagged wrong by the uploader.

@unclebobunclebob Written by Sebastian, not Dylan.

[themonkees1969]

@unclebobunclebob Chad and Jill, his wife, who filled in while Jeremy was busy doing theater elsewhere.

Ignorant comment. The Beatles were quoted around this same time saying that the Byrds were their favorite American band of the day. The Byrds stand on their own nicely, so get some wisdom.

Actually, a very good version of the Dylan classic sung live and in good form here.  The duck-hunting babes in frozen poses are pretty bizarre, though. And what were the Byrds doing in a rather goofy rendition of "Do You Believe in Magic"?
