Seems that the only Byrd consistent throughout Monterey was Chris.

well mainly cause it was the last song after some alternate tracks on my yty cd. its unreleased songs from that album are so good it makes you wonder why they didnt keep them on there since the albums so short

Glenn Wheatcroft

I never said it wasnt a nice song. I just gave the reasons why I dont think it was a hit.The reason you overlooked it is why it wasnt a hit.

MrTimmyz1989

I find this song catchy as hell. the drumming is very upbeat and the vocals are some their best. I wont lie i did overlook this song but i've beenn listening to it over and over again while working in the yard

Glenn Wheatcroft

mine and many others because it went nowhere. The problem was it was the same Byrds 12 string jangle sound. If anything it wasn't as good sonically as the first two albums. Crosby makes no bones about the muddy production. They had regressed in that regard and hadn't really progressed consistently a whole lot in terms of songwriting as other major bands of the time by 1967. Particularly given the era where bands were making strides with every new release. They did push the boundaries on occasion

"Your" Brain.

Glenn Wheatcroft

though there is a nice melody going on somewhere. It doesnt really lead to anything noteworthy

Glenn Wheatcroft

it has no hook or chorus that sticks in your brain.

@hookalakah It most definately is Michael Clarke on the record...he could be a bit unsteady live at times, but I can tell his style anywhere, plus it's documented that it's actually him on "Lady Friend". The only songs he didn't drum on while he was a member of The Byrds are:Mr. Tambourine Man, I Knew I'd Want You, Goin' Back, Natural Harmony, Wasn't Born To Follow, Get To You, and Tribal Gathering. everything else is him up until he officially left the band in December of 1967

thought they filmed ALL sets at Monterey..why are there only 3 Byrds songs available afetr 40 years from Monterey.cant thy release the full set to DVD?

hookalakah

Damn, Michael Clark is sure heavy-handed on this one. Hal Blaine--or maybe John Guerin--probably played drums on the great recording of "Lady Friend."

@HIghFlyinByrd The horn player is hugh masekella and he is on stage on the left in the picture but he didnt play on this song live

Ian Roure

Wow! Rockin'!

Ann Hand

Much better than the single version. Gary Usher would have been better off leaving out the horns.

shane henning

great song

tbzeee

my fave byrds track & one of crosby's best. why wasn't this a hit? bad promotion, maybe? crosby's exit wasn't until after the single's flop...perhaps the title's absence from the actual song? great live performance, too bad no vid

captainsoul1953

He only used them on the first single..Tambourine man Jim

I was gonna say, from what I've read, Pennebaker didn't film every song by every artist. Some artists probably didn't get filmed at all (possibly some of them refused permission), while others there's just one or two songs. I believe there were two songs, Can You See Me and Purple Haze, I think, that weren't filmed during Hendrix's set, for instance. Also, it's possible that some stuff that WAS filmed got junked after the initial documentary was released.

Kohntarkosz

Yeah, the movie was just on TV a few nights ago. I watched it. A fun little picture.

Actually the movie Don't Make Waves is quite good. It has Tony Curtis and Caludia Cardinal. Sharon Tate is the girl that Curtis keeps seeeing on the beach. The title song was by the Byrds. The one used in the movie is a different mix than the one released on the b side of the 45. It was a genre quickie done for the movie. I enjoy Dave Crosby's sarcastic comment at the end; "Lets Double it! Masterpiece". That last comment is not heard in the movie itself.
