Totally love the picture 4:27

Seems you have quite a collection!

Awesome video, he's such a gifted guitarist! He makes magic with that Rick. Shame he's often underrated...arghhh! that gets on my nerves!

I could not agree more, its really hard for me too see one of my heros be so overlooked,

Thanx for watching

Oh yeah! After 45 years, I never tire of that exceptional 12-string Rick. McGuinn rules--then and NOW!!!

What's the track starting around 3:05?

[zincChameleon]

I'm working on a new version of Eight Miles High, going back even before Coltrane's India (the source of the EMH opening riff) to Charlie Parker, and then back to the 12-string. EMH solos are like no other in their use of the 12-string: mostly past the 12th fret on the three bottom strings, using the open top 3 to chime and ring an Em chord. Some of his phrases have never been duplicated, even by Roger himself. A lot the guitar work on this video is actually Glen Campbell and Clarence White.

I think I heard Bells of rhymney twice

[KOERTVANDRIEL]

on last track "Old Blue" it's Clarence White stealing the show of course but, yeah, Roger will always stay king of the 12-string ....

I have known for many many years that McGuinn is a pioneer of great guitar playing and never was a copy cat. No one ever really mentions him for what he has done ,you mostly hear about Clapton ,PAGE, Hendrix,etc ...Good vid..

"Hooked on McGuinn!" :-)

@HOUNDDAWG The only time the Byrds recorded with session players exclusively or with the wreaking crew to be precise was for the Mr. Tambourine Man / I Knew Id want you single check out the Byrds Journals or A Timeless Flight by Johnny Rogan to reference. On Turn Turn Turn thats Crosby all over on rhythm guitar also Micheal Clarke's drumming is one of the most distinct in 60's rock always can make out his smashing style all the way up to the flying burrito bros records. Its an old myth

[TonySkyRush]

What a signature player and a great feel for the 12 string. I don't think he's underrated at all. He will always be the "Rick" guy and always will be appreciated for the sound he created with that guitar.

The bYrds songs are ageless classics and will be listened too for generations to come. After enjoying their greatest hits album it raises your expectations of music...

[HOUNDDAWG]

One minor detail. The Byrds did not play the session when TURN TURN TURN was recorded. It was done by session players. And, after hearing their original demo I understood why.

A rock trivia radio show years ago played their original demo and revealed that session players were used for their early recordings.
