◇ image via WikipediaThe Birds
The Birds is a Psychedelic rock act. Their sound grew out of The Byrds, Bob Dylan and Small Faces. Those roots explain a lot about how The Birds arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as John's Children, The Sonics, The Yardbirds, Manfred Mann and Paul Revere & The Raiders, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Twink, Faces and The Rolling Stones, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 12 connections around The Birds, reaching back through The Byrds and forward to Twink.
