The Byrds - "Not Fade Away" - Shindig! 1965

[@thomasrobinson182]

My two biggest influences The Byrds and Buddy Holly.

About a year earlier one hearing of the Stones doing this turned me into a instant Stonesmaniac. Thank you "WBZ, Radio 103, the spirit of New England"* where you heard a lot of the good stuff first. The Byrds, my favorite American band, aren't bad but I'll take Mick and Brian et al. *50,000 Watt station in Boston, that came in loud and clear in NE Ohio at 8 sharp every evening. Homework? What's that?

Nice shot of Michael Clarke on Bamba drums.

I wonder who added the bluesy lead guitar licks.

[@HarryTakagi]

Judging from the tone of the Telecaster, it may have been James Burton, who was in the house band of Shindig called the Shindogs at the time.

@@HarryTakagi That''s what I was thinking too!

The arrangement of this song copies The Stones version released in 1964. The result is ok but Mick & the boys excelled at playing Rock n' Roll.

Essentially a copy of The Rolling Stones version from a year prior. The solo might be better on this version but I think Clark could have done a better job on harp. Still it’s not bad especially for a folk rock band.

Buddy Holly the bigbang of the britain evasion.
