Please, always remember it’s our brave warriors who make possible the ringing of the Chimes of our Freedom. Bless them all. It’s a debt never to paid. Thank You.
This song has never been more relevant. The vocals combined with Dylan's lyrics take it to a higher level. This is a powerful, profound and beautiful song....
True enough! I'm 73, going on 18. I saw The Byrds and The Doors at the Whisky on Sunset Bl. In 1966! Ten feet in front of me! Will forever love The Byrds!
OMG l am 75 and a teen through the 60s and enjoyed the London club scene but all of us thought The Byrds outstripped the likes of The Beatles and The Stones by miles! Hanging on my wall since the 60s is a signed LP cover of Mr Tambourine Man by the entire group. I still listen to them 2 or 3 times a week! As good today
I am 5 years ahead. I only in recent years have delved into the music of those times; when they were happening, I was engrossed in just plain survival and did not have the time or funds to do much more than listen to the radio. Doubtless, the music of the 60's and 70's was far better than anything happening now.
We can thank George Harrison for Roger's love of the Rickenbacker sound. Listening to every song on youtube by The La's lately. Songs not on album too. The Kinks were great too. Roger has a folk song site with several old English, Scot songs. Heard Dylan doing Johnny Todd? Now an Everton song - ZCars.
I think the thought back then was that we could change the world with our music. I believe that is still possible; with the right message and right song....
True, a great band, but they had an awful need to shorten Dylan's songs - the worst example being "Mr Tambourine Man" of which they only sang one of the four verses.
@@grangetowncardiff6935 Of course i do. Could say more but the music is paramount here, not crap politics and politicians. Cheers, enjoy life and especially the music man. Peace.
While McGuinn's revolutionary electric 12 string, his and Clark's voice, Hillman's superb bass, Crosby and Hillman's harmony, and, of course, the songs make the Byrds one of the greatest bands. It's their combined relaxed but confident feel which stands them above most other bands. This recording is a masterpiece of such feel.
@@peterhogan9537 I'm afraid that you have your "Byrds facts" wrong. All of the Byrds exclusively played on "Chimes". The Wrecking Crew only played on the Byrds' first single, "Mr. Tambourine Man", backed with the Gene Clark-penned B-side, "I Knew I'd Want You". When the album was about to be recorded, they unanimously insisted that they be allowed to perform the rest of the album's instrumental accompaniment themselves, which they brilliantly did. The musicians who played on that first single were: Jim (later Roger) McGuinn- electric 12 -string guitar Hal Baine- drums Bill Pitman - guitar Jerry Cole - guitar Larry Knechtel - bass Leon Russell - piano Only three of the five members of the Byrds performed on these two songs: Jim/Roger McGuinn on 12-string, he and Gene Clark sang lead vocals, Gene Clark and David Crosby sang the vocal harmonies. There is at least one fascinating video on YT of the Tambourine Man session showing how the arrangement progressed until it became one of the most influential recordings in pop music history. Check it out. Cheers, mate.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Well, given that Chris was not the lead singer on but a very few Byrds' songs and not on any of the songs in the vids, and he was the bass player, he was (foolishly) not considered to be very important . Yes, bass player Paul Mac was central in Beatles vids, but he was a lead singer much of the time and... well, he's Paul for Zeus's sake.
Citizens of 2024 listen to the words from 1965 and you think you have problems today...the world always throws up issues for folks to deal with....lesson is that people forget the past very quickly...long live the Byrds.
YOu are not the only guy my friend : I am a big Byrds fan too. Love the sound of Roger Mc Guinns `guitar and all their voices and their great songs. I am 70 now and still love them so much Joerg
Meanwhile I am 69. We grew up with that wonderful stuff!!! This is a timeless and now more actual song! I never would expect that! Lyrics, Vokals and the Bass-Line still wunderbar!

I'm 75 now grew up in Southern California saw the birds in the mid 60s at the club called The trip on sunset boulevard trip on the sign was upside down great songwriter Gene Clark
Yeah, the Byrds version sound better. It's because of the arrangements. Dylan was a genius when it comes to lyrics, but was not a great instrumentalist himself.
I first heard this when I was 16 in 1979 listening to the Byrds Greatest Hits album. Even then, as a budding guitarist, I knew it was something special. The whole album moved me.
listening to this and then reading the comments brings tears to my eyes, these guys were my absolute favorite band of the 60s and some of their music is imprinted on my soul particularly the notorious byrd brothers album. for those of you who weren't there, there was a period when love really was alive on this planet
"An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe. An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing." We should never underestimate the power of music. The Byrds' music has got me through some times and pulled me back to life more times than I care to admit 🎸💖 RIP Gene and Michael 💕
Oh I had almost forgot about this beautiful gem cause I always say My back pages is my favorite Byrds song. I loved their harmonies and covers of one of this black Detroit chick's favorite artists and songwriters Bob Dylan. I remember this album cover cause I had it and played a lot of the Byrds songs alot . favorite art
Maybe my favorite group ever, beside CSN. They managed to sound so beautiful and angelic on record that they couldn’t live up to it live lol but that’s only because the record sounds so beyond amazing!
This was probably my favorite song on the Mr. Tambourine Man album, and I played it a lot in 1966 and '67. In the summer of 1992, I went to see a free concert in the park by a group billed as The Byrds, although the only original member in the band was the drummer, Mike Clarke. They dedicated this song to people who were POWs or war casualties.
The Byrds we're Absolutely one of a kind band...had an opportunity to meet Michael Clarke in 1991 such a wonderful human being he was! RIP 🙏🏼🕯️🙏🏼 Michael. The Byrds forever!
I was stationed in Vietnam January 31 1968- January 25th 69 the TeT offense started the Night l landed in Vietnam. Every one would buy their Stereo equipment in the PX Post Exchange. I never did I had an extension cord for my Headphones. And would listen to everyone else Long play vinal albums. This is on of a bunch that where my Soundtrack of Vietnam An-khe and Phu-thi.

Classic Anthem for any Generation. So happy I discovered this record early in life. The Truth of this song is eternal. It was just an act of God that inspired the Byrds to make two albums of Bob (Zimmerman) Dylan's inspired writing. In that one simple decade, those creative boys touched the Universe, But it was the recording Engineers. that Einstein'd this this record into the Constellations;-)

EVERY TIME I PLAY THIS SONG,I THINK ABOUT A BUDDY OF MINE WHO SAID THAT THIS WAS ONE THE SONGS,THAT THEY PLAYED ON THE PLANE AS HE WAS COMING BACH HOME FROM VEITMAM.

I think the thought back then was that we could change the world with our music. I believe that is still possible; with the right message and right song....
Perhaps with the right spokesman or group speaking for the common people. We need a true and real populist movement.
Utterly beautiful song. Thanx Dylan for writing it, thanx Byrds for recording it.

Far between sundown's finish
And midnights broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts
Struck shadows in these sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
Even though a cloud's white curtain
In a far-off corner flashed
And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale
And for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
Starry-eyed and laughing as I recall when we were caught
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
As we listened one last time and we watched with one last look
Spellbound and swallowed 'til the tolling ended
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones and worse
And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
-Bob Dylan
A song for a generation and a version to spur you on - good memories, even if we didn't manage to change the world then.
EVERY TIME I PLAY THIS SONG,I THINK ABOUT A BUDDY OF MINE WHO SAID THAT THIS WAS ONE THE SONGS,THAT THEY PLAYED ON THE PLANE AS HE WAS COMING BACH HOME FROM VEITMAM.
Wow Pete Seeger was a hero for Roger McGuinn so he told on his personal tours in the Netherlands. Well Roger is my hero. Thank god I do own a Rick 370/12 RM so I can produce his guitarsound myself. Turn Turn Turn!!! But you do need a Janglebox too! So I did wonderfull now I have his sound! ❤️🎸
