The man could sing and harmonize like an Angel, play hollow body electric beautifully with that jingle jangle sound, but to be fair there are millions of guys who can do that, What makes David Crosby a Rock Legend are the songs he wrote and co- wrote. Those Who can do THAT are RARE indeed.@@bobmalack481
ah, it's so moving to see the girls having such a wonderful time. Time just goes by so fast. They were so beautiful, happy and all their lives ahead of them. All their dreams, I hope they got a few of them. They have to be in their seventies now. That generation was a very special one.
Yup...people actually exhibited human qualities, acted and behaved as if they were still....HUMAN! Not like most of the mentally and emotionally numb/bankrupt zombies we have passing for human beings today.
I am a member of 'that generation,' but I fail to see the specialness. No doubt every generation is unique in some way. Perhaps the baby boom generation is special in terms of its pleasure-seeking ethos, its unrepentant hedonism! To quote the inimitable Austin Powers, "As long as people are still having promiscuous sex with many anonymous partners while at the same time experimenting with mind-expanding drugs in a consequence-free environment, I’ll be sound as a pound!"
@@bobmalack481Crosby said as much. Said no offense to the rest of the guys but mcguinn was at least half the band. I will say from what I hear gene has the strongest vocal.
@@Mncrr The overall big picture is Mcguinn is the heart and soul of the Byrds with his 12 string lead guitar and his distinctive voice. Clark or Crosby is over rated. Crosby got the boot from the Byrds after '66, and Crosby remained mediocre with CSN (and sometimes Y) Young and Mcguinn 4 times more talented thsn Clark or Crosby.
@@bobmalack481 all true except gene Clark had a stronger voice and was a good songwriter. Fear of flying led to his departure. Crosby was way overrated.
The latter-day era Byrds comprised of McGuinn, Gene Parsons, Clarence White, and Skip Battin actually became better than the original Byrds lineup live.
R.I.P. to David Crosby, Gene Clark, and Michael Clarke, all of the immortal Byrds, as well as the TNT Show announcer (and secret agent!), David McCallum!
This was “our generation” music to “groove “ but also ..lots of bad times but the music..was a just a far out feeling..today this Is all I play for tunes..my twin daughters now 45..dad…what are you listening to??? two words “my generation”!!!!🇺🇸🦅🤪🤪🤪👏👏♥️👅😎
This is suddenly my favorite video of the Byrds. Thank you for the colorizing, and also thank you for leaving the original audio. I don't like videos where the original live audio was replaced by the studio version of the song. 10 stars! Actually, I'd like to give this video 11 stars, because the band chose to play Bells Of Rhymney as the second song, despite it not being a single. Yeah!
@@simplechronology2605 ‘66 was all amazing, but something about the innocence of ‘65 before psychedelia fully took hold just appeals to me. Then again, the ‘66 San Francisco sound is a strong contender
Gene looks actually a bit older. Crosby 24, McGuinn 23. Michael Clarke the youngest here only 19 I think. But fantastic that this is the original line - up real live and no lip sync!
Right. I heard an interview with Crosby the other day. He said they met Dylan around this time and he really liked their sound and referred to it as electrified folk and it greatly influenced when he went electric at the Newport Folk Festival.......
Pete Seeger wrote 'To Everything There Is a Season' in 1959. I love the Byrds and I am closest to my Dad whenever I listen to anything they played. My Dad's birthday would have been next week (April 2024).. The Byrds made Mr Tambourine Man better than Dylan (although my dad was torn between the original and the Byrd's cover).. The Byrds are why I came to find this video.. but Pete Seeger needs more than a mention, he wrote the whole song!! "To Everything There Is A Season", please listen to it if you haven't already!!! The Limeliters released it in 1962, and is a really fun, different interpretation .. I challenge anyone who reads this comment to listen to Pete Seeger's original.. and then try not to do a jiggly dance when you listen to the 1962 Limeliters version 😊😂 There is a season, A time to hear the Byrds, a time to hear the original, a time to hear Pete Seeger sing, and a time to dance with the Limeliters ❤
David est monté ..au ciel il reste ici dans ces vidéos j'ai été fan très rapidement ce gars avait une voix qui était spéciale...merci David ..pour tes musiques avec tout tes amis avec Graham et tout tes amis musiciens ...c'était et cela reste magnifique '''inoubliable. J'ai été marqué par les riffs de David Lindley dans Love Work Out ..etc...Ohio. Avec Neil Young...et Stephen Stills '..etc aussi....et ce morceau ( Carry me ) qui me fait chaque fois un effet terrible ..les larmes me viennent ....merci à toi David R IP ...et en plus il faisait un effet sur les filles ici ...les filles...tout un programme ..elles n'ont pas changée...elles veulent toujours du fun ...❤merci David Crosby🇺🇸
So dumb looking..save it for the 'Mr. Soul' music video a couple years later with CS&N video with him and Steven Stills in a cowboy hat duck stepping like Chuck Berry onstage struting around. David Crosby..overated. Robert at 68.
I remember when I first heard the song. A terrible explosion had just occurred in a nearby town and scores of people were severely burned and many died. I was 16, and I questioned why terrible things happen. (Still no answers at age 73.)
'Turn Turn Turn' was certainly Gene's song all the way ..... unforgettable ... he wrote the flip side "She Don't Care About Time'...a masterwork thrown away as a B side
Beautiful music from a much better time. Roger McGuinn on that Rickenbacker 12 string is amazing. It was the Byrds that inspired me to get a Rickenbacker 12 string and start learning their music after trying to play it on a 6 string Strat. I actually wish they hadn't colorized it, makes it look fake to me, and it is not period correct. I set my display on greyscale to watch it.
Easily one of my top 5 bands of all time. I personally put them up there with the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Beach Boy. I don't feel that they get talked anough as one of the best of all time.
The byrds were the best.their is no band that can touch their likes not even today.some may come close.but they will NEVER be imentated!!!! To bad the the orignal 5 could have gave it another try before it was to late.😢😢😢😢
His chord changes are done well and that says something. He plays quite well at Woodstock. Used a lot of open tunings. Had a fine voice for both lead and harmony.
Can't look any cooler than Roger Mcguinn with his hair and blue rectangular shades, and that 12 string Richenbacher guitar. David Crosby never impressed me here or with CS&N. Girl at 3:00 is one I'd kill for in the day, a fairer haired somewhat looking Chrissie Hynde from the 'Pretender's'..awsome as looking at these lasses. Robert at 69.
Nothing no more super cool than Roger Mcguinn with the 12 string Rickenbacker guitar, his hair, and those rectangular blue 'shades' Robert at 69 in Az.
From what I understand, monitors weren't a thing until the late 60's. I think I read the Rolling Stones were the first rock group to have monitors, and they reportedly were amazed that they could finally hear themselves onstage.
no doubt. the beatles’ signature rickenbacker jangle and dylan’s lyrics and melodies gave the byrds a platform on which they could build. the reality is that the beatles and bob dylan are, 60 years later, almost incomparable to those who’ve followed since. you can’t discredit the byrds though. they reimagined and reinterpreted a great sound that so many failed to make their own with such success as the byrds’ while making bob dylan’s tunes a blueprint for their own back catalogue. mr tambourine man is a truly great album. the byrds were obviously taking from dylan and the beatles, but who hasn’t at some stage? the byrds will always be acknowledged for the bob dylan tunes they reworked, and even across the originals, that influence alongside the rickenbacker twang, lifted shamelessly from the beatles ‘hard day’s night.’ can’t discredit any band that has taken from the beatles and bob dylan at all. the byrds i’m sure would never have professed to have come close in matching lennon/mccartney/harrison or dylan’s creativity, they just made great tunes (be it their own or those they made their own) sound as good as pop music has ever sounded. and no one can deny eight miles high is a true staple of psychedelia in the mid 60s either.
I wonder how many in that lovely audience listening to songs of love, open-mindedness and peace are now Trump supporters. These were hopeful times, but it didn't take long for our dreams to be dashed.
Actually, I think you'll find most are still in that same state of mind. You get older, but you never stop trying to achieve the dream of love, open-mindedness and peace.
Awesome. Total time capsule. I wonder who the audience was comprised of? Many televised or filmed for later broadcast music entertainment shows were given a hand-picked audience consisting of friends of the band, sons, daughters, nieces and nephews of the record label, studio, or broadcasting entity. '65 was a magical time as things were moving pretty fast socially, trend-wise, fashion and politics-wise. No doubt.
I've been a Byrds fan since I first heard them in the mid 60s but don't know who is who. Can someone tell me who they are from our left to right? Thank you.
RIP: David Crosby, Gene Clarck and Michael Clarcke
