Here's a video of the Flying Burrito Brothers performing the song that carried them into Round 2 of the Battle of the Bands playing out on my radio show, Dr. John's Record Shelf. It occurs to me that this represents a first for the contest: since the Byrds advanced some weeks back, that means that Chris Hillman (the frizzy-haired gent in this video) and Michael Clarke (the drummer) are making a double appearance in Round 2, as they were members of both groups. Alex Chilton had a shot at accomplishing that too, but Big Star failed to win their first round contest (though the Box Tops have yet to compete). Anyway, enjoy the Cosmic American Music of the Flying Burrito Brothers:
