Yeah, well some people are still listening to Mozart's 40th symphony as well. Music's not like food - it doesn't go off as it ages.
A great deal of music "goes off" as it ages - (especially many tunes by The Byrds) - not this tune so much, though. Anyhow, it doesn't mean that one should not listen to it, but Roger McGuinn is not Mozart. |

I've seen Roger McGuinn in concert in the last ten years and this period piece is reminiscent of how in some quarters the light continues, yet, on my playlist it's the Roxy Music version that still receves extended plays.

I can't remember who, but one NASA astronaut requested this song to be played to their capsule. That impressed me at the time.

The Byrds influenced the Beatles. That is a claim to fame. I love watching snow-covered mountain ranges from airplanes. ;-) |

 Here is the correct cover art and it came out in '66 first as a single and then included on this '66 LP, not in '80  |
