Yet another great tune from the recently released album, of the movie/documentary, "Echo In The Canyon"
This tune has me en-rapt...as for it is a, 'it haunts me, keeps itself humming in the back of my mind all day", kind of song.
There's quite a little story behind the song as it released on the Byrd's 1966 album, "Turn, Turn, Turn" under the same title and released both as the "B side" and the "A side" of the same 45 rpm single...but it had also been released previously with a different title...and it was an altogether different recording too.

From wikipedia: ""It Won't Be Wrong" was composed in 1964 by the Byrds lead guitarist Jim McGuinn and his friend Harvey Gerst, who was an acquaintance from McGuinn's days as a folk singer at The Troubadour folk club in West Hollywood, California. The song originally appeared with the alternate title of "Don't Be Long" on the B-side of a single that the Byrds had released on Elektra Records in October 1964, under the pseudonym the Beefeaters. By the time the song was re-recorded in September 1965, during the recording sessions for the Byrds' second Columbia Records' album, its title had been changed to "It Won't Be Wrong". Both the band and their producer Terry Melcher felt that the 1965 version included on the Turn! Turn! Turn! album was far more accomplished and exciting than the earlier Elektra recording of the song.

Lyrically, the song is a relatively simplistic appeal for a lover to submit to the singer's romantic advances. Musically, however, the guitar riff following each verse foreshadows the raga experimentation of the band's later songs 'Eight Miles High' and 'Why', both of which would be recorded within three months of 'It Won't Be Wrong'. The Byrds' biographer, Johnny Rogan, has described the difference between the earlier Beefeaters' recording of the song and The Byrds' Columbia version as remarkable. Rogan went on to state that the 'lackluster' Beefeaters' version was replaced by the driving beat of a Byrds rock classic, complete with strident guitars and improved harmonies, that transformed the sentiments of the song from an ineffectual statement to a passionate plea."

I suppose someone has been dubbed the "King of Harps" at sometime or another, but Charlie Musselwhite is known as the "Ace of Harps"...clearly one-up-man-ship being demonstrated there.

A huge favorite at the Sutter Street Saloon, in Folsom, California, back in the day [1987-1998]and this song was my favorite on the jukebox. Perfect for the River City [aka Sacramento] and Folsom. The American River is less than 70 yards from the site, which is now the Powerhouse Pub, [named as for the reason the Folsom Powerhouse, built in 1895 and an alternating current {AC} hydroelectric power station—one of the first in the United States also the first commercial 60 cycle 3-phase power system {now our modern system}, and at 23 miles to the city of Sacramento, it produced the farthest commercial power transmitted at the time, sits between the former Saloon and the river.]

Sutter Street Saloon was a favorite venue of many bands, the gate was never oversold and the owner also bought an apartment across the street in which out of town bands could stay in for their performance dates and beyond. Mostly Blues acts and some old school rock and roll. Elvin Bishop, Savoy Brown, Rick Derringer, Berry Melton, and Lydia Pense with Cold Blood to name a few of the rock bands that played there. Chris Cain, Joe Louis Walker, Tommy Castro, and John Lee Hooker to name some of the other Blues musicians.

It's also where I was introduced to gin martinis, rye whiskey, and Frenet Branca, a more wicked, foul tasting, digestif has never been concocted... although, if it has, the concocteur couldn't possibly have survived the first tasting.

^ That one's video is interesting. Mainly because, deep meditative visions I've had looked like a dance of those colors with all sorts of sounds covered with an ever-present infinite AUM over everything.

DMT vision was the same, though there was this "forcing out" feeling from the body. That'll sound strange to anyone who hasn't experienced it, so disregard it and enjoy the music.

When I first heard of the band, Hawkwind, I was invited to listen to them. I had asked to hear some good acid rock but this band was new to me so I asked; "Are they "Hard Rock"?
My friend replied; "Let me put it this way; their fans make the Grateful Dead's fans look like a bunch of girl scouts."

There are "Levels" to society and after a good many years one might think they've seen them all. But there is an underground level so deep few ever venture that far to know of it and those that did are far fewer still.

Welcome to rock and roll so deep that it's "Underground".
