Weekend Song

This is a nice little song written by Roger McGuinn and Gene Clark (singing lead on this), co-founders of the Byrds. It's from the earliest days of the group, and didn't appear on an album until "Preflyte" -- a collection of early demos and studio sessions -- was released in 1969. You might have heard a slower-tempo version by the Turtles who had a Top 10 hit with it in 1968, or a version by... =ahem= Salt-N-Pepa (we kid you not!) in 1991. Enjoy the song and the weekend.
