Probably

A slight change of tack now- from 80s electronic dubiness to 60s folk-rock. I'm not sure this song is folk-rock, more template making guitar pop. The Byrds' I'll Feel A Whole Lot Better was a B-side from 1965 and an album track. Written and sung by Gene Clark (far left in photo), the chiming 12 string Rickenbacker guitar, pounding tambourine and three part vocals add up to perfection, and my shoddy writing in no way does it justice. One of your favourite guitar bands is in here somewhere I'll wager. The lyric adds it's own little sardonic twist, Gene Clark weighing up the departure of a girl who's done him wrong and deciding he'll feel a whole lot better when she's gone. Well, probably. While I'm here, check out the hair. Best 60s fringes? Probably.

The punk cover (as opposed to it's second cousin the ironic cover) is one of the pleasures of post '77 punk rock. Husker Du's cover of The Byrds psychedelic masterpiece Eight Miles High may well be the high point of both all punk covers and Husker Du's back catalogue. It's absolutely blistering and well worth a few minutes of your weekend.
