Music video by The Byrds performing Chimes Of Freedom (Audio). Originally released 1965. All rights reserved by Columbia Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment.
Citizens of 2024 listen to the words from 1965 and you think you have problems today...the world always throws up issues for folks to deal with....lesson is that people forget the past very quickly...long live the Byrds.
Same here my fellow Byrds fans --- I'm 72 ---- Bought the Mr Tambourine Man LP when it came out . The whole album is solid and 'magic' with Chimes of Freedom and Bells of Rhymney being the standouts for me. Either song can still send chills up my spine .
I’m 70 and consider myself so damn lucky to have been there to listen to these great artist..I haven’t told my kids that I was blessed to have grown up through three of the best decades of great music..
@@grangetowncardiff6935 Of course i do. Could say more but the music is paramount here, not crap politics and politicians. Cheers, enjoy life and especially the music man. Peace.
This song has never been more relevant. The vocals combined with Dylan's lyrics take it to a higher level. This is a powerful, profound and beautiful song....
True enough! I'm 73, going on 18. I saw The Byrds and The Doors at the Whisky on Sunset Bl. In 1966! Ten feet in front of me! Will forever love The Byrds!
OMG l am 75 and a teen through the 60s and enjoyed the London club scene but all of us thought The Byrds outstripped the likes of The Beatles and The Stones by miles! Hanging on my wall since the 60s is a signed LP cover of Mr Tambourine Man by the entire group. I still listen to them 2 or 3 times a week! As good today
I am 5 years ahead. I only in recent years have delved into the music of those times; when they were happening, I was engrossed in just plain survival and did not have the time or funds to do much more than listen to the radio. Doubtless, the music of the 60's and 70's was far better than anything happening now.
We can thank George Harrison for Roger's love of the Rickenbacker sound. Listening to every song on youtube by The La's lately. Songs not on album too. The Kinks were great too. Roger has a folk song site with several old English, Scot songs. Heard Dylan doing Johnny Todd? Now an Everton song - ZCars.
Yeah, the Byrds version sound better. It's because of the arrangements. Dylan was a genius when it comes to lyrics, but was not a great instrumentalist himself.
While McGuinn's revolutionary electric 12 string, his and Clark's voice, Hillman's superb bass, Crosby and Hillman's harmony, and, of course, the songs make the Byrds one of the greatest bands. It's their combined relaxed but confident feel which stands them above most other bands. This recording is a masterpiece of such feel.
@@peterhogan9537 I'm afraid that you have your "Byrds facts" wrong. All of the Byrds exclusively played on "Chimes". The Wrecking Crew only played on the Byrds' first single, "Mr. Tambourine Man", backed with the Gene Clark-penned B-side, "I Knew I'd Want You". When the album was about to be recorded, they unanimously insisted that they be allowed to perform the rest of the album's instrumental accompaniment themselves, which they brilliantly did. The musicians who played on that first single were: Jim (later Roger) McGuinn- electric 12 -string guitar Hal Baine- drums Bill Pitman - guitar Jerry Cole - guitar Larry Knechtel - bass Leon Russell - piano Only three of the five members of the Byrds performed on these two songs: Jim/Roger McGuinn on 12-string, he and Gene Clark sang lead vocals, Gene Clark and David Crosby sang the vocal harmonies. There is at least one fascinating video on YT of the Tambourine Man session showing how the arrangement progressed until it became one of the most influential recordings in pop music history. Check it out. Cheers, mate.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Well, given that Chris was not the lead singer on but a very few Byrds' songs and not on any of the songs in the vids, and he was the bass player, he was (foolishly) not considered to be very important . Yes, bass player Paul Mac was central in Beatles vids, but he was a lead singer much of the time and... well, he's Paul for Zeus's sake.
YOu are not the only guy my friend : I am a big Byrds fan too. Love the sound of Roger Mc Guinns `guitar and all their voices and their great songs. I am 70 now and still love them so much Joerg
True, a great band, but they had an awful need to shorten Dylan's songs - the worst example being "Mr Tambourine Man" of which they only sang one of the four verses.
tolling for the aching ones whose wounds can not be nursed brought tears to my eyes.. It reminds me of My Cousin who was a Vietnam Vet ( damaged by Agent Orange) RIP Jim
Meanwhile I am 69. We grew up with that wonderful stuff!!! This is a timeless and now more actual song! I never would expect that! Lyrics, Vokals and the Bass-Line still wunderbar!
I first heard this when I was 16 in 1979 listening to the Byrds Greatest Hits album. Even then, as a budding guitarist, I knew it was something special. The whole album moved me.
Wave the great flag of freedom with that simple Peace Sign Symbol.....question everything remember your youth of unbridled passion....for music and protest .....
I was stationed in Vietnam January 31 1968- January 25th 69 the TeT offense started the Night l landed in Vietnam. Every one would buy their Stereo equipment in the PX Post Exchange. I never did I had an extension cord for my Headphones. And would listen to everyone else Long play vinal albums. This is on of a bunch that where my Soundtrack of Vietnam An-khe and Phu-thi. Plus they played all these groups on American Force RADIO Vietnam. AFVN if you where a Huey helicopter crew. Your ADF resiver was in AFVN taking the sounds of Vietnam with you plus every office work shop every on but the infantry in the Field. Every barracks. Was playing song like this. Grandpa Rich Retired Army Staff Sergeant.
EVERY TIME I PLAY THIS SONG,I THINK ABOUT A BUDDY OF MINE WHO SAID THAT THIS WAS ONE THE SONGS,THAT THEY PLAYED ON THE PLANE AS HE WAS COMING BACH HOME FROM VEITMAM.
This was probably my favorite song on the Mr. Tambourine Man album, and I played it a lot in 1966 and '67. In the summer of 1992, I went to see a free concert in the park by a group billed as The Byrds, although the only original member in the band was the drummer, Mike Clarke. They dedicated this song to people who were POWs or war casualties.
this is beauuuuuuutiful from start to finish so beautifully written by brother Bob Dylan and covered by countless artists and musicians alike it's just beauuuuuuutiful every time I hear it rest in eternal glory to brothers Gene c and Michael c miss you dearly departed Byrd brothers😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭.
The Byrds we're Absolutely one of a kind band...had an opportunity to meet Michael Clarke in 1991 such a wonderful human being he was! RIP 🙏🏼🕯️🙏🏼 Michael. The Byrds forever!
Oh I had almost forgot about this beautiful gem cause I always say My back pages is my favorite Byrds song. I loved their harmonies and covers of one of this black Detroit chick's favorite artists and songwriters Bob Dylan. I remember this album cover cause I had it and played a lot of the Byrds songs alot . favorite art
listening to this and then reading the comments brings tears to my eyes, these guys were my absolute favorite band of the 60s and some of their music is imprinted on my soul particularly the notorious byrd brothers album. for those of you who weren't there, there was a period when love really was alive on this planet
Maybe my favorite group ever, beside CSN. They managed to sound so beautiful and angelic on record that they couldn’t live up to it live lol but that’s only because the record sounds so beyond amazing!
I think the thought back then was that we could change the world with our music. I believe that is still possible; with the right message and right song....
Wow Pete Seeger was a hero for Roger McGuinn so he told on his personal tours in the Netherlands. Well Roger is my hero. Thank god I do own a Rick 370/12 RM so I can produce his guitarsound myself. Turn Turn Turn!!! But you do need a Janglebox too! So I did wonderfull now I have his sound! ❤️🎸
If only: if only we could revive a movement toward sanity and peace in this country that defeated the forces of war and hate in the '60's '70's. Music like this was part of it. We need another march on Washington, this time a peaceful one of thousands!
Juventud norteamericana, conquistaste el mundo con tu voz e instrumentos musicales, no así tú gobierno guerrerisra ,bombas y armas en la mano ,fracasaron en su hambre de dominio total o parcial
Love the byrds. Their music was the best. Lot of bands was influenced by their sounds.this was music with alot of heart. If they (the orignal 5)stayed together what could have been?
omg... what a great song of bob dylan - and waht a more great cover of the byrds . thanks to both of them ! allways have tears in my eyes, when i hear this great cover version !
Absolutely love the byrds their music inspired a generation of bands years later R.E.M. being one of many the Rickenbacker guitar style is iconic and unsurpassed to this day brilliant stuff!
"An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe. An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing." We should never underestimate the power of music. The Byrds' music has got me through some times and pulled me back to life more times than I care to admit 🎸💖 RIP Gene and Michael 💕
Classic Anthem for any Generation. So happy I discovered this record early in life. The Truth of this song is eternal. It was just an act of God that inspired the Byrds to make two albums of Bob (Zimmerman) Dylan's inspired writing. In that one simple decade, those creative boys touched the Universe, But it was the recording Engineers. that Einstein'd this this record into the Constellations;-)
Citizens of 2024 listen to the words from 1965 and you think you have problems today...the world always throws up issues for folks to deal with....lesson is that people forget the past very quickly...long live the Byrds.
So blessed to have been around for the early Byrds. They were the greatest ever. I'm 71 now and still get tingles when I hear them.
Me too, 71 and loving the Byrds and Dylan for so many years.

London music in the 60s and 70s, absolutely magic
I think the byrds sung about every day life and things that went on.not lot of songs about love which invol ed woman and the likes
The Byrds did Dylan so well!
Just about anybody and everybody covered Dylan songs better...lol
Bruce vrsion
better than himself, sometime

Chris Hillman was the most under-appreciated member of the Byrds. In many contemporary videos they barely show him.

The Byrds music makes me just wanna go outside and walk in nature. Their music has a peaceful, nostalgic-inducing, effect. Awesome band.
Would the Byrds material be ok to llisten to while meditating?
Grateful Bob Dylan allowed them to record some of his greatest hits. They combined, his lyrics and their musical magic.
55 years later this song still stops me in my tracks
Me too brother, me too
YOu are not the only guy my friend : I am a big Byrds fan too. Love the sound of Roger Mc Guinns `guitar and all their voices and their great songs. I am 70 now and still love them so much Joerg
Leave it to The Byrds to turn another Bob Dylan original into a classic
Utterly beautiful song. Thanx Dylan for writing it, thanx Byrds for recording it.
RIP Gene Clark & Michael Clarke.
+gerardusch Man, he was such a talented songrwiter.
I didn't know he was dead. Rest in Peace.
Absolutely gorgeous. One of their best, or maybe best Dylan covers, they make it their own. Powerful stuff.
True, a great band, but they had an awful need to shorten Dylan's songs - the worst example being "Mr Tambourine Man" of which they only sang one of the four verses.

It doesn't get better than The Byrds
Hillman's bass is the heartbeat of the song...epic
yup probably the only song in rock were a bass played lead hillman was one of the greatest
What about most of The Who's songs? My Generation? The Real Me? There are many more, even by others. @@marklaumond5241
An anthem for the ages. Folk-Rock defined. I miss them so.
The TRUE epitome of great sounds of the 60s.
Brilliant bass work
I agree. Chris Hillman is underrated as a bass player
I want to live in this song.
Meanwhile I am 69. We grew up with that wonderful stuff!!! This is a timeless and now more actual song! I never would expect that! Lyrics, Vokals and the Bass-Line still wunderbar!
Dave Crosby...
Nobody did Dylans songs like these guys did, quality!
Except for Dylan of course
Love this, but Peter, Paul & Mary did great covers of Dylan as did Joan Baez,
Uma das maiores bandas de todos os tempos mas tambem a menos falada e citada

Yeah, you were correct. The Byrds had it then and now, it was moving.
Iedere dag als ik die sound hoor van the Byrds wordt ik blij en prijs me gelukkig dat ik ben opgegroeid in the Sixties.

Beautiful vocals Roger Mc Guinn as always.
Roger's great vocals....superb
This was a favorite of mine back then. Thanks for posting so I could find and remember it.

I remember the spirit of those times. Teachers and kids with high ideals. I was one of them in spades. What in the hell happened, bro?
I got that album in 1966 and can't recall a song on it that was not an instant classic for me. Still love Byrds, McGuinn, especially in concert.
Love the Byrds! RIP Gene Clark

This one for you America and that trump arse hole you voted in what a joke you are the whole world laughs at you
