THE BYRDS - Turn Turn Turn
The sound of the Rickenbacker 12 string! The Byrds were founded in Los Angeles, California, in 1964 by singers and guitarists Jim McGuinn (changed his name to Roger McGuinn in 1967), Gene Clark, and David Crosby. Bass guitarist Chris Hillman and drummer Michael Clarke joined soon after.
The lyrics of this song are taken from the King James version of the Bible (Ecclesiastes 3, verses 1–8). A time and place for all things: laughter and sorrow, healing and killing, war and peace, and so on., with stress on the closing line: "a time for peace, I swear it's not too late," the latter phrase being the only part of the lyric written by Pete Seeger himself.
