    This lineup of the Byrds ; McGuinn, White, Parsons, Battin - was the best lineup the band ever had.
    If you haven’t listened to their album called “Untitled”, you’re missing a real masterpiece.
    Thank so much for this video!

    When I was a kid in the 60s, when a Byrds song came on the radio I would stop playing and go to the radio and listen. I just thought their music was incredible and no one else like them. Sounds so beautiful, thanks for putting this vid up!.

    Thanks so much for posting! My favorite version besides Bob's own earliest version. Roger McGuinn and the Byrds with Earl and Randy Skruggs - doesn't get much better than them jamming together. It was very sad that Randy died so young, Great all female version at Bob's Anniversary Concert in 1992.

    Philbrown1474: I torally agree with you that their lineup on this was their best ensemble. I had the good fortune of seeing them 5 times. I also agree with your assessment of the "Untitled" album. My dad one day asked "I thought you had more albums this this one."

I don’t remember this being so in the clips you made for iTunes. Best, Lee ❤

      David. One thing I do have is a good memory, so I thought it through. Back in the day it was rare to have access to any clips of 50's and 60's stuff. I taped the History of PBS in 95. If memory serves me, The episode was called " Shakespeare's in the Alley" and was focused on Dylan and Folk Rock..Mcguinn was featured as we know his part in that movement. Sometime later in the episode I believe your footage was playing to reflect the movement from folk to country. It was the first time Insaw Mcguinn in that period without the granny glasses. When I saw the footage I was like...wow, it's David's..I checked RUclips and this episode is not there. The other episodes from the series seem to have been broadcast in England...and my tapes are long gone.
