I think the Byrds were a big part of it for me in the early days.. I didn't see them though until they were turning to country and I didn't really like it at the time.Gd'day milady
Good day Stoners
I think you like The Byrds JRaven Me too.
I saw them at Rutgers with Joe Cocker and a local group who opened the show and ended their set with Mr. Tambourine Man. We got an instant replay when the lead for The Byrds said, with just a little snark, "Here's how it's really done " and opened with the same song. It was all good and the whole show was great.
