Blown Away

The other day, I ended an article about the Supreme Court making up law on a whim by posting a recording of Bob Dylan singing his song, "Blowin' in the Wind." In tracking that down, I came across another version of the song that stunned me to find.
It's not that it's the Bee Gees singing "Blowin' in the Wind" -- it's that it's them singing it on a TV show in 1963! Yes, 60 years ago. That's when Maurice and Robin were only 14 -- though Robin in the back almost looks half that. Barry is 17...though nearly looks like their father.
Clearly, this isn't the rough-edged, highly-textured rendition of Bob Dylan. But given the context and their harmonies, it's still a very nice version to hear.
