The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man (Top 500 Countdown Update)
For many of the albums on this list I don't feel that I can properly review them or rank them for that matter. In the end I have to base all of my judgments on what I like. Mr. Tambourine Man is a good album, but it has a very dated sound. Funny, but I've never listened to The Byrds until now and I can see their appeal, but it's a sound that I'm not all that crazy about. Of course I can immediately see how many bands ripped off this sound. I immediately think of The Guess Who, but I actually like what The Guess Who does with this sound better than what The Byrds do with it.
