Lip synched performance from the band's only TV appearance in Great Britain; \"Top Of The...\".
The TV debut of David Crosby's cape!!
Note how the host spells out their name: B-Y-R-D-S.
This was to avoid confusion with Ronnie Wood's band, \"The Birds\", who were starting to make noise around town.
As soon as they got there, The Byrds all got sick; taking them into a \"Proper climate\" especially affected Chris Hillman, who had to be shot full of vitamins and penicilin just to make the broadcast!!
Note Gene Clark grinning ear to ear; this is rare, but he just spent the previous night hanging w/Paul McCartney. :-)
Michael Clarke was out club hopping w/Brian Jones & John Entwhistle.
The U.K. tour pretty much bombed; bad sound, their weakness as a live act, and the \"Anti-stage presence\" that they were known for just didn't fly with the Brits.
