Vem skrev låten i know you rider?
I mitten av 1960-talet hade rockbands börjat spela in låten. Bland de välkända versionerna finns de av Janis Joplin, James Taylor (som "Circle Around the Sun", på James Taylor), Seldom Scene och Hot Tuna. The Astronauts släppte en version på sitt album Travelin' Men från 1967. Byrds spelade in låten under 1966, under titeln "I Know My Rider (I Know You Rider)", men deras version förblev outgiven fram till 1987, då den inkluderades på Never Before. Byrds version inkluderades senare som ett bonusspår på den utökade cd-utgåvan av deras album Fifth Dimension. Byrds framförde också låten på Monterey Pop Festival, även om detta framförande av "I Know My Rider (I Know You Rider)" aldrig har släppts officiellt. Låten har också tagits upp av den New York-baserade singer-songwritern Robin Greenstein på hennes traditionella folk- och blues-CD Images of Women Vol. 1 och av den traditionella amerikanska folksångaren Steve Suffet (som duett med Laura Munzer) på hans album Low Rent District från 2008. Låten har också blivit coverad av reggae/rockfusionskonstnärerna Slightly Stoopid på deras album Slightly Not Stoned Enough To Eat Breakfast Yet Stoopid från 2008 och Big House på deras album Never Ending Train från 2008. Den har också delvis täckts av det experimentella folkbandet Akron/Family.
By the mid-1960s, rock acts had begun to record the song. Well known versions include those by Janis Joplin, James Taylor (as "Circle Around the Sun", on James Taylor), the Seldom Scene and Hot Tuna. The Astronauts released a version on their 1967 album Travelin' Men. The Byrds recorded the song during 1966, under the title "I Know My Rider (I Know You Rider)", but their version remained unreleased until 1987, when it was included on Never Before. The Byrds' version was later included as a bonus track on the expanded CD edition of their Fifth Dimension album. The Byrds also performed the song at the Monterey Pop Festival, though that performance of "I Know My Rider (I Know You Rider)" has never been officially released. The song has also been covered by New York based singer-songwriter Robin Greenstein on her traditional folk and blues CD, Images of Women Vol. 1 and by traditional American folksinger Steve Suffet (as a duet with Laura Munzer) on his 2008 Low Rent District album. The song was also covered by reggae/rock fusion artists Slightly Stoopid on their 2008 album Slightly Not Stoned Enough To Eat Breakfast Yet Stoopid and Big House on their 2008 Never Ending Train album. It has also been partially covered by experimental folk band Akron/Family.
