great song

Beautiful. This song (and the whole album, really) are the perfect epitaph for the 60′s. Thanks for posting.

one of the very rare times when a Byrds’ cover of a Dylan’s song has almost the same intensity as the song had in the original version. Very beautiful, very impressive.

it’s easy rider man, brilliant film.

havn’t heard this before, sound like the 13th floor elevators version

Made me cry the first time I heard it. Painfully beautiful. This should have been a single instead of a “B” side. The “Easy Rider” clips are appropriate since the main characters of the film were loosely based on McGuinn and Crosby. The 1965 Byrds version was cool, but this one is fantastic.

what movie is this?
June 5th, 2010 at 7:47 am
This movie is soooo cooool. This cover is a little lame, misses the ambivalence (big word!) of Dylan’s original. Here we have Protestant white dullards imposing AngloSaxon restraint on true passion. Pasty-faced white people are sooo dreadful. Dreadful. ugh.

always wondered why they dropped the last verse – probably too long for radio back then – beautiful rendition though

great cover, very different, but still good. love the clips..

bleah version

Echo & the Bunnymen have a good version of this.

easy ride, que genialidad de pelicula, un canto a la libertad, en cuanto al tema me quedo con el de Dylan.

This version moans with sorry. Takes on a completely different vibe than Dylan’s and their original stab in ’65. I personally MUCH prefer this version…it’s unparalleled in its gentleness. What an album!!

Terry Melcher, who produced this album, also sang harmony vocals on this great track.
Ironically, he produced the Byrds first 2 albums as well. The second CD, “Turn! Turn! Turn!”, had a faster tempo version of the song, by the original members, as a bonus track on the remastered CD. I prefer this (Easy Rider) version.

What a great version.
Howling B Bendage and great McGuinn, Gene Parson, John York harmony!

A powerful swan song for these two.

Slow deliberate drive, Clarence White’s B-bender thru a Leslie and great harmonies. Hard to believe it’s 40 yrs old.

It’s definately different than Dylan’s take. They’re both incomparable.
