| Mit eigenen Worten ... |
On their first four albums, these golden California boys combined their roots in the coffeehouse folk scene with their love of the Beatles. Leader Roger McGuinn was an acoustic folkie who plugged in after his mind was blown by A Hard Day\'s Night. McGuinn\'s signature sound -- the jangling twelve-string Rickenbacker guitar -- and the group\'s harmonies defined folk rock on a string of huge radio hits: the break-up ditty \"I\'ll Feel a Whole Lot Better,\" the psychedelic rave-up \"Eight Miles High\" and the cover of Bob Dylan\'s \"Mr. Tambourine Man,\" which gave Dylan his first and only Number One single.
