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.
