Melody, Drone, & The Radio: The Byrds, "Chestnut Mare" b/w "Just a Season" | The Spindle
Manage episode 474953771 series 3348785
In 1970 Roger McGuinn and Jacques Levy were planning a musical, but it never came to be. Instead the songs they wrote got sprinkled throughout Byrds albums, and one became a single, the narrative-leaning "Chestnut Mare," backed with the classic Byrdsian melody of "Just a Season." In this deep dive—which explores the way the band influenced Television, The Meat Puppets, and even The Allman Brothers, John and Marc dig into this era of the Byrds, which produced the great half-live/half-studio album (Untitled). Drop the needle, it's time for The Spindle.
When you're done, revisit the Spindle episode featuring Hüsker Dü’s cover of “Eight Miles High”
And check out Marc and John on The Byrds in a special Spindle Sidebar.
