And who can forget the fad started by McGuinn’s “Byrd” sunglasses. Even John Lennon wore them.

One of my absolute favorite bands and group of musicians! Brilliant. In my top 5 of all time.

How can someone write an article about the Byrds and not mention Gram Parsons?

Eight Miles High, loved it. Thanks for bringing back some old memories.

Although they only managed to attain the commercial success on the scale of contemporary greats like The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and The Rolling Stones... Only? Yeah to bad the Beatles and Stones never really made it big. I mean not like the Dave Clark Five or the Turtles.

Everyone had those freakin moptop haircuts back then....LOL.
The Byrds, the Animals, the Stones, the Turtles, Chad n Jeremy, the Yardbirds, the Who....moptops all of them. Glad they got over it quick.
Kudos to Art Garfunkel for never having a moptop.

I saw McQuinn at a small club here in the east Bay, probably 10 years ago now. He told a great story:
Somebody approached Dylan at a party with a lyric for a new song. Dylan looked at the words:
The river flows
It flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes
That's where I want to be
Dylan then gave the guy the note back and said: "Give it to McQuinn, he can do something with it."
The song became "The Ballad of Easy Rider"

To my ears, no song better captures the spirit of 60s than Eight Miles High. One of my favorite covers of it is by Leo Kottke.
