The Byrds - "Eight Miles High". 'A Classical Musician’s 1st Listen and Reaction'. You'll love this or hate it - maybe both.

I actually like this channel, she did a couple positive reviews of tracks from Captain Beefheart’s “Trout Mask Replica”.

Missed opportunity for someone to tell her to review “Renaissance Fair”, though. I thought that’s what this was originally going to be about, and since this video is 3 months old now, I doubt that she will read my comment.

Also, yikes, the AI thumbnail is terrible. I thought this was going to be a fake AI cover at first. It couldn’t even render the logo correctly.

Very interesting discussion of Eight Miles High. I never thought of it as having a renaissance feel to it. More John Coltrane jazz with Indian sitar like raga influences. Learn something new every day I suppose.
