The Byrds
The Byrds () were an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1964. The band underwent multiple lineup changes throughout its existence, with frontman Roger McGuinn (known as Jim McGuinn until mid-1967) remaining the sole consistent member. Although their time as one of the most popular groups in the world only lasted for a short period in the mid-1960s, the Byrds are today considered by critics to be among the most influential rock acts of their era. Their signature blend of clear harmony singing and McGuinn's jangly 12-string Rickenbacker guitar was "absorbed into the vocabulary of rock" and has continued to be influential. Initially, the Byrds pioneered the musical genre of folk rock as a popular format in 1965, by melding the influence of the Beatles and other British Invasion bands with contemporary and traditional folk music on their first and second albums, and the hit singles " Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Turn! Turn! Turn!". As the 1960s progressed, ...

Song Recordings Produced By Mitchell Froom
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...

Some of the Melbourne bands he played in from 1976 to 1978 included Thunder and Edges.

So You Want To Be A Rock 'n' Roll Star
"So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star" is a song by the American rock band the Byrds, written by Jim McGuinn and Chris Hillman and included on the band's 1967 album, '' Younger Than Yesterday''. The song was inspired by the manufactured nature of the Monkees and was released as a single on January 9, 1967, reaching number 29 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, but failing to chart in the United Kingdom. Composition and content Written in late 1966, "So You Want to be a Rock 'n' Roll Star" has been described by Byrds expert Tim Conners as "an acerbic, but good-natured swipe at the success of manufactured rock bands like the Monkees." ''The Monkees'' television series had debuted in America in September 1966, and had launched the pre-fabricated band to international fame. The manufactured nature of the group caused the Byrds' bassist, Chris Hillman, and lead guitarist, Jim McGuinn, to look upon the current state of the pop world with more than a little cynicism—something that was ...

Into Temptation (song)
"Into Temptation" is a 1988 song by rock group Crowded House. It was the third single from the group's second album ''Temple of Low Men''. The single peaked at #59 on the Australian ARIA singles chart in January 1989. "Into Temptation" appears on Crowded House's greatest hits album ''Recurring Dream''. The song was also performed by Renée Geyer for the Finn brothers female tribute album ''She Will Have Her Way'' in 2005. Reception Junkee said, "If you ever needed an example of how convincing Neil Finn’s songwriting is, consider this: Sharon Finn thought Neil was cheating on him because of this song. Add in the undercurrent of Hester’s unmistakable jazz-brush finesse and a synth-string orchestral sweep, and you’re left with one of the band’s most emotive, understated moments." ''Nexus'' noted the, "sparse verse instrumentation, vocals front and centre, followed by a lush chorus with a melody that draws you in, its simplicity is a masterstroke and its effectiveness is me ...
