From Hugh Hefner's "Playboy After Dark".

Very rare performance.

I was hoping to include the interview with Heff & Roger preceding the performance, but I'm still looking for it. :-(

The guitar work here by the late great Clarence White is absolutely spellbinding.

With Gene Parsons (No relation to Gram) on drums, and John York on the Bass.

God Bless Roger for keeping it going, but I never liked this line up mostly because the drummer is such an over-player. No groove at all.

The Easy Rider band. Very appreciated. "This Wheel's On Fire" in the listing may attract more viewers.

Great tune, but it's worth watching just for a short glimpse of an 18 year old Barbie Benton in a white silk shirt next to the stage at about 1:30 and more. Benton was the ultimate 60' beauty, along with all the girls in the Norton ads of course

With all due respect to Dylan, who I love, this version is incendiary. Absolutely amazing. I don't get how anyone could not see that. To each his own, but to say that this "sucks hard" is just plain ridiculous.

Actually, Michael Clarke isn't in this clip either - that's Gene Parsons on drums.

Gene Clark is indeed deceased but he left the band two years before the performance shown here. The lead guitarist featured here is Clarence White (also no longer with us) who had officially joined the band just two months prior to this.

"Awesome" has really got to go too, most overused word in these parts.

On this day in 1968 {May 11th} the Byrds performed the Bob Dylan song "You Ain't Going Nowhere" on the late Dick Clark's 'American Bandstand'... And on that very same day it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #74 and spent 5 weeks on the Top 100... Sadly, two members of the band have left us; Gene Clark died on May 24th, 1991 at the age of 46 and Michael Clarke on December 19th, 1993 at age 47... R.I.P. Mr. Clark, Mr. Clarke, and Dick Clark {1929 - 2012}...

thank you - and while we're at it, kill 'epic', & 'sublime' as well. They're overused & lame.

If you have ever wondered how to dance to mid-tempo Country-Rock (I'm sure we all have) this is the answer.

"Groovy urban urban hipsters" like classic bluegrass flat picker Clarence White, Roger McGuinn who played with Judy Collins and Chad Mitchell.
