Today marks the 83rd birthday of the great Bob Dylan. When people talk about the "soundtrack of a generation," Dylan's music could easily fill up the playlist (if you're of a certain age, of course). Out of the scores of songs of his that we could play, we're randomly choosing an early one that still resonates today, "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall."
Today also marks the day in 1991 when singer/ songwriter/ musician Gene Clark passed away at the age of 49. Clark was a founding member of The Byrds, a band that looked to Dylan for songs and inspiration. But Clark was a master songwriter on his own, creating such gems as "I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better,""She Don't Care About Time," and his masterpiece solo album, "No Other." He also was the main writer on The Byrds' "Eight Miles High," a live, acoustic, late- life gorgeous version of which is our second song today. Hope you enjoy.
