The Byrds - So You Wanna Be a Rock N Roll Star - Mr Tambourine Man - Eight Miles High

 THE BYRDS--SO YOU WANNA BE A ROCK N ROLL STAR---MR.TAMBOURINE MAN---EIGHT MILES HIGH


Thanks to TWILIGHTZONE (for the reminder)

We have mentioned Chuck Prophet and we haven’t had any for a while but the vids all came from the redoubtable TWILIGHTZONE sharing them
and today they remind of us of The Byrds in their hey day!

Great revisit!

around the time of ‘untitled’ [without Crosby] they recorded what some fans consider the most self indulgent versions (at least of Eight Miles High) which in fact I loved .(at the time) . . . those were the times!
Here their version show the beginnings of the journey into inner space!

Surprising to read that..... I saw them live at Sheffield City Hall at that time and thought the whole show was brilliant...Eight Miles High jam and all. In fact I've got a DVD of bits of that era and it still sounds great to me
