your bunny was an idiot. |

A very classic Gene Clark (RIP) song, one of the best tunes from the 60s.

CLASSIC!
But this version, somehow, sounds — faster — than the one on my iPod, and on the Byrds CD collection I ripped it from.

Among the best, maybe the best, of the Byrds' original tunes, among them Have You Seen Her Face and She Don't Care About Time. Great American band.

Actually my favourite Byrds track. A great rocker. B-side of All I Really Wanna Do single I bought as a teenager in UK.

dionysius wrote:The touchstone, the source, the birth, the origin and fount of all jangle-rock (from the Beatles' "And Your Bird Can Sing" all the way to R.E.M.). A sweet and poignant (and rare!) Gene Clark vocal over McGuinn's peerless chiming Rickenbacker twelve-string hollow-body reverberations. The best Byrds song period, over McGuinn's inconsistent material and even over their Dylan covers.
What lmic said. I interviewed Chris Hillman for a defunct rag some years ago. He admired Clark's subtlety, "I'll probably feel a whole lot better..." |
