Here's a rare Gene Clark gem - Gene Clark live on Canadian TV circa 1984 with his band the Firebyrds - Michael Clarke on drums. He sings Mr. Tambourine Man [full version] plus Rodeo Rider and a snippet of Eight Miles High plus an interview.

This show was taped in Vancouver for CBC Television. A comedian friend of mine was on this same show with Gene Clark and gave me this tape. He recalls sitting in the green room with Gene and Michael and the band, waiting for the show to start.

All Gene Clark/Byrds fans will know that the TV host is mistaken when he says that Gene Clark and Michael Clarke are brothers.

I was lucky enough to see Gene Clark live several times in Toronto around this same time period. It is great to see that his legend has only grown larger since then - he was a truly incredible talent.
