I had the good fortune to meet Gene Clark. He played Lulu's in Kitchener with his "tribute Byrds" in the 80s. On the 2nd night of their show, he came out between his sets to speak to me. I was sitting up front, by myself, and he was impressed I attended both nights. He was a real gentleman and spent most of his break talking to me. 100% pure class.

Because this narrator is reading from Wikipedia and is clueless. 0:39 “Dickson signed a one-time agreement with Electra Records.” How does he omit the first name of their manager less than a minute into the narrative? 0:57. “The Byrds were founded in 1964 by bassist John Dickson.” Actually, the name of their manager was Jim, not John, Dickson. He wasn’t their bassist and he wasn’t the founder, either. I stopped listening to this video less than a minute into it. I can’t take this guy. Thumbs down.

My little local blues band got onto the mid 70's outdoor festival circuit on the east coast. It evolved from the bluegrass festivals, and musicians from other genres began to be included. It was strange, there were no "headliners", just a mish mash of different bands and performers from noon to late for 3 days. We actually had to follow Roger McGuinn once. Also, many many years later, another band I was in opened up for "The Byrds" in a club in Charlottesville, Va. Drummer Mike Clark was the only original Byrd, and half of the songs they did were not even Byrds' material.

Out of all the mid-sixties guitar, bass, vocals, drums groups, The Byrds were right behing the Beatles with that look, sound, musicianship, etc. Loved them dearly. McGuinns use of that iconic, jangly, chimy, Rickenbacker elect 12-string (along with George Harrison's use of the same 360/12 guitar) prompted thousands of young guitarists to buy/play one!! I was one of them, must admit. Had three altogether, chagrinely had to sell 2..Still have my orig. FireGlo 360/12!!That's a keeper!! The Byrds will, if not already, go down in history as one of the seminal pop/folk rock groups to make inroads into the 60's rock scene!! Will always love their orig. sound, 1965-66!!

I grew up listening to the Beatles, Yes, and Iron Maiden. I had a fond memory of the Byrds, from my childhood, with "Turn, Turn, Turn" and "Mr. Tambourine Man," but they were old, and forgotten, by the time I was a teen. We still got into late 60's stuff, like Zeppelin and Sabbath, and I thought I saw a 1969 copyright on ELP's debut album. Most 60's pop was patently uncool, so no Byrds in my collection. Now that I'm old enough that "uncool" is defined as anything I approve of, I can listen to whatever I want, without worrying what anybody thinks. I found a Byrds greatest hits album on CD. They're not the Beatles or the Moody Blues. It didn't hurt to listen to, but it wasn't that great, either. Maybe, it's because it was a GM album. The only GH album I ever enjoyed was the Van Morrison album, with the big chrome microphone on the cover.

The band’s fifth album, The Notorious Byrd Brothers, marked the musical transitional point in The Byrds’ career. After that album, original drummer Michael Clarke left the band, leaving McGuinn and Hillman to fend for themselves as the only members of the band briefly at that moment. So they recruited Gram Parsons who essentially ignited the band’s Country Rock era. Gram left the band after Sweetheart of the Rodeo, but the Country Rock sound still stuck in The Byrds’ musical output for the remainder of their career. Had Gene Clark and Michael Clarke not each left The Byrds and had David Crosby not been fired from the band, chances are that Country Rock would have never been conceived.

They had so little faith in them as musicians that only Roger Mcguinn played on their first album while the rest of the musicians were the Wrecking Crew. I never thought of them like the Beatles were they worked with a skilled producer and all the members of the band were in the studio making magic.

You never heard anything after Turn Turn Turn then? 5D, Younger Than Yesterday, Notorious Byrd Bros were all the original group with generous help from renowned producer Gary Usher sharing his talents for crucial parts of that period. Notorious is, in the opinion of many, as great a studio creation as anything The Beatles ever accomplished. And in terms of their influence on the future of rock music? Ask members of REM or The Jayhawks, Johnny Marr or Ryan Adams, just how important the original Byrds were to the development of their sounds, and the success of their careers.

Well, Well! Lies my friend! Byrds played on their 1st Album except for MTM and the B side! They only had a contract to record a SINGLE, and their producer decided they should use session men with Roger (Jim) McGuinn playing the 12string and his arrangement and his intro,

It was recorded Jan 1965 and released in May 1965 and became a huge hit so the record company told them to record an Album and they did, which they only played on! Brilliant Band!

Great band, too bad about the poorly put together bio delivered by a kid with terrible diction. Take the marbles out and do some research kiddo.

Inaccuracies, omissions, and a millennial announcer with only limited knowledge of The Byrds. What a waste.

Terrible job reporting. The byrds will stand on their own, accomplishments and failures. Studios bosses ruled back in the day. Even the stone ponies didn't play on their hits.

Sir pardon me but you need lessons in diction. many of the consonants in the words coming out of your mouth Are simply not pronounced. I have never seen this once in a KZitem video.

I had to give up trying to listen to the awful narration. That isn’t a comment on the narrator. I’m not a pro baseball pitcher either

What happened to the Byrds? They sucked @$$. Thank goodness rock music progressed quickly past the era when everyone sounded the same.
