This is really nice, Mr. Mcguin is still good after all these years. Interesting comment from "perchand", I thought I was seeing things, there IS an extra string on his guitar!, makes for a really pleasant distinctive sound.

Don't knock Roger's glasses, either - ya shoulda seen the ones he was wearing back in '65!

Hey, don't make fun of Roger's hat.... it sort of gives him an Esteban look...

@perchhand - It's a Martin 7 string guitar. The 7 string model provides an octave string for the G bass string.

Andrea Prodan

@lhommegrande Not really. Maybe the slow 60ies feel is no longer apt. I like it fast as well... and the other is on the soundtrack. Tw great songs... the second almost a Simon & Garfunkel!

RenoRaider

@lhommegrande sounds like it. he played this classic way too fast for my taste.

Gabriel Dinelli

His voice is marvellous, even after all those years.

I saw McGuinn in a small venue last spring in Irvington, NY. Going to see him again in April, Tarrytown, NY. There is no doubt that he is one of the alltime greats. Better than ever. If you have a chance to see his solo act do so before he is gone forever.

Dave Holly

Brilliant , absolute legend .....D'ya think he was in hurry to get somewhere else after this show?

Anybody notice he's playing a SEVEN string gutiar? This was a custom deal that featured a doubled G string with one string an octave higher than the other. Between this gutiar, and his 12 string "RICK," were the origins of trademark signature sound that became the Byrds in the middle 1960's. Gene Clark was the father of the Byrds but I believe Roger McGuinn was the driving force behind their sound, their music and their success.

Ron Cromer

Roger McGuinn's legendary 12 string Rickenbacker and 7 string (with a doubled G string, one an octave higher) created the trademark signature sound that became the Byrds calling card. Gene Clark may have been the father of the Byrds but Roger McGuinn was the driving force that made the Byrds, IMHO, the greatest 60's group to ever come out of L.A.

Ron Cromer

Roger McGuinn's 12 string Rickenbacker and 7 string (with a doubled G string ~ one an octave higher) created the trademark signature sound of the Byrds. Gene Clark MAY have been the father of the Byrds but Roger McGuinn was clearly the driving force that made the Byrds (IMHO) the best 60's group EVER to originate from L.A.

Ron Cromer

McGuinn's 12 string compressed "Rick" and his 7 string (with the G doubled and one an octave higher) created the trademark signature sound of the Byrds. Gene Clark may have been the father of the Byrds but Roger McGuinn was the steady driving force the made the Byrds perhaps the best band ever to originate out of L.A.

Ron Cromer

Roger McGuinn's compressed 12 string Rickenbacker and 7 string (G string doubled with one an octave higher than the other) helped create the unique signature sound of the Byrds. Gene Clark may have been the father of the Byrds but McGuinn's voice & gutiar were always the driving force behind their sound and success.

Ron Cromer

McGuinn's 7-string "Double G" is still talked about
