New Christy Minstrels – Ride, Ride, Ride.

Barry McGuire is the famous baritone on a few of the New Christy Minstrels albums in the early 1960s. He really belts it out on this song, giving it a real wild west flavor.

Randy Sparks ran into him at a bar in Oklahoma and heard him preform, and asked him to join their informal group. Previously, Barry McGuire was a commercial fisherman, and then became a journeyman pipe fitter. His accent was authentic.

Over the years, the New Christy Minstrels have had over 200 different members, many of are artists who then went on to own right -- like the Byrds, the Association, Kenny Rogers, etc.

Barry McGuire went on to fame with his song the Eve of Destruction, and eventually became a contemporary christian music singer, after the great born-again Christian movement of the late 60s that many artists became involved in.

Apparently they haven't deleted it all of Youtube in our country's latest cultural purge. Because all Americans celebrate 1984 on Independence Day.

An old Phil Ochs song from an earlier era, not that much has changed.
