Roger McGuinn - 1988-04-27 - Roanoke, VA (SBD)

Roger McGuinn entered the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1991 as a member of The Byrds.  At the induction ceremony at the Waldorf Astoria, the 5 original membrs of The Byrds - McGuinn, Gene Clark, David Crosby, Michael Clarke and Chris Hillman – put aside years of personal and financial disputes to reunite and perform. Sadly, it would be the last time the 5 original line up ever played together as both Michael Clarke and Gene Clark would pass away within the next 2 years. Of course, while those induction ceremonies closed some wounds, it opened others, as long time Byrds members such as Clarence White, Gene Parsons and Skip Battin, just to name 3, were completely ignored by the Rock Hall of Fame.

This soundboard recording captures McGuinn 3 years before his induction, in Roanoke on April 27, 1988, 38 years ago today.
