Song 172, Hickory Wind by the Byrds: Part 3, The Parsons Tale

For those who haven’t heard the announcement I just posted , songs from this point on will sometimes be split among multiple episodes, so this is the third part of a four-episode look at the Byrds in 1966-69 and the birth of country rock.

Patreon backers also have a half-hour bonus episode, on “Fire” by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown.
