Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-)))
"Take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
Past the foggy ruins of time, far past the twisted leaves
Of the haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
I wanna dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands
With all memory of fate driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow."
I think there are enough references to frightened trees :-) the beach, the sea, the sands, the waves to use my Studland Beach photo. The arrangement of this 1984 piano based version came to Gene when he was in Hawaii recuperating from exhaustion. It is the final track on the double album “Gene Clark ~ Flying High”. Apparently, harmony vocals were by Chris Hillman and Chris was also playing bass.
Of course I have original versions by Bob Dylan and by The Byrds. They are forever all-time classics. But, in my humble opinion there will never ever be anything better that Gene's version.
Some of the YouTube comments say it a lot better than me -
“This is the strongest version ever recorded, to be honest... Gene Clark - No Other”
“Just discovered the high priceless diamond ever found! Simply haunting!!!!!!!”
“I love the tempo, the harmonies, and Gene's voice, oh my goodness. Beautiful. So glad he decided to sing the extra verses”
“This is simply an awesome version. The hauntingly plaintiff quality of his voice is just perfect for this song. Talk about goose-bumps”
