I fucking love the Byrds

Mr. Tambourine Man, Younger Than Yesterday and Sweetheart of the Rodeo are all high-tier albums. Greatest Hits is a god-tier album.

The Byrds are fucking legendary man. One of, if not the most influential American rock band. They planted so many seeds.

They basically invented folk rock, and possible psychedelic rock with 8 miles high

They were the only American band that the Beatles were particularly friendly with since, unlike all the other American and British artists during that era (one band in particular with the initials "RR"), they didn't just straight copy them and they really wanted to make their own sound

Basically the only bands during the 60s that had a clearly delineated and lasting influence without just copying the Beatles were the Who, the Byrds, and the Kinks

Good post. Really good post. The Byrds and Beatles definitely influenced eachother in the mid-60s

I can’t figure it out. What is this RR band?

The Rolling Rones

That was actually supposed to be "RS," I feel like a tard now

Fifth Dimension is a really good album

Haven't really heard anything else they've done

dylan invented folk rock

you're forgetting the Velvets

>Rolling Rones

it happens bud
at least you were right about everything else

This

Many of the British invasion bands were creative in their own right and certainly influenced the Beatles, but if we're talking most influential bands and not just "bands that sometimes influenced the Beatles," the most important were probably Velvet Underground (even though they weren't appreciated until much later), Famous Flames, and Beatles

saved from the depths

Which came first, the Byrds covering Mr Tambourine man, or Dylan going electric?

Nah man, VU influenced a lot of late 70s/ 80s artists and beyond but not a major single one during the 60s.

Byrds

also the signature sound 12string was influenced and bought after The Beatles Hard day's night album/movie
