Song (number!) Of The Day : Eight Miles High - The Byrds (live)

 Eight Miles High - The Byrds


this became a long jam showing off the guitar bass and drum techniques of the band as they were . . . . . . .interestingly the post on Facebook triggered almost universal disparagement! Ridicule even! Trolls to a man I love this piece and its roll in the Byrds canon as a classic but acknowledge it does high light maybe (sic) McGuinn’s shortcomings as anything other than a rhythm guitarist but so what?!


Byrds remember . . . . . .
