Mr. Tambourine Man [Colored Vinyl] (Red)
Byrds
LP Rel Date: 1989-05-03
Vinyl LP pressing. The Byrds burst upon an already fertile pop/rock music scene in the spring of 1965 with a stunning retooling of Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" that changed everything. The debut album of the same name that followed, featuring mind blowing folk-rock gems like "The Bells Of Rhymney," "I'll Feel A Whole Lot Better" and "Chimes Of Freedom," was so aromatically intoxicating it even lit a fire under the Beatles across the Atlantic, working on Rubber Soul. The Mr. Tambourine Man longplayer is so bountiful it almost doubles as a Byrds greatest hits, volume one. "Here Without You" and "I Knew I'd Want You" weave a sense of mystery into the Byrds' eerie harmonic tapestry. And "All I Want To Do," along with "Spanish Harlem Incident," once again, connect Dylan's magic to the pop charts in a way only McGuinn, Crosby, Clark, Hillman and Clarke could pull off.
