   About Gene Clark
I know most people coming to this page are already well versed in who Gene Clark was, what he did, and the brave, delicate, rich talent he was. Instead of writing a biography of Gene, I thought I'd let people who knew him and those influenced by him speak here.

I came to Gene both early and late. I was a fan of The Byrds from the beginning, even tho I was just a little girl of 10 when I heard my first Byrds record. I was madly in love, like most of us, with "I'll Feel A Whole Lot Better". My mom was a working divorcee and would leave money for my sister and I to go to the local burger joint for dinner, as well as some quarters for the jukebox. I played that song to death! I remained a fierce Byrds fan but wasn't really much aware of Gene's solo work.

It was a decade ago when a man I was dating turned me onto Gene's work. I fell completely in love with these beautiful songs, and their lonely and longing quality which were so deeply set in an American landscape. Gene Clark's songs are the ultimate American road movie.

Hello, I'm a big fan of Gene but cannot find the song 'dark of my moon' anywhere as it was only on his demo cd's. Are you able to post it up here, it's one of my favourite songs but I cant find it anywhere to listen to! Thanks.

I added my version of 'Winter In' today. It was an unfinished Gene Clark tune that I felt had to be finished. I even paid publishing rights to do so. I wonder if Gene would approve of my take.
