The Byrds reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with their rendition of Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" on June 26, 1965.The song had originally appeared on Dylan's "Bringing It All Back Home," the influential album - including songs like "Maggie's Farm" and "Subterranean Homesick Blues" - that marked the famed folk singer's first steps toward an electric sound.The Byrds, centered around Roger McGuinn and David Crosby, picked up on the song as the title track to their debut album. The tune was also the band's first single, recorded that January and achieving its distinctive folk-rock sound in part through the use of McGuinn's 12-string guitar playing."Mr. Tambourine Man" took over number one from "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)" by the Four Tops. It held on for a week before being replaced by the Rolling Stones' iconic track "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction."
