Barry McGuire Quotes
But times changed, and I changed, and I didn't feel that way anymore. The Beatles were happening. I think that was probably the main thing. The Beatles just changed the whole world of music.

About
Barry McGuire is an American singer-songwriter best known for the hit song Eve of Destruction, and later as a pioneering singer and songwriter of Contemporary Christian music. McGuire was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and moved to California in early childhood, when he was two years old. At age 16 he joined the United States Navy, but was discharged ten months later for being under age. After working as a commercial fisherman, and then going on to become a journeyman pipe fitter, at age 25 McGuire got a job singing in a bar. In 1961, he released his first single called The Tree, which was not a hit. In the 1980s, McGuire left the music industry, and settled for a time in New Zealand with his New Zealand wife Mari. He returned to the United States in the 1990s, teaming up with Terry Talbot and recording as Talbot McGuire. The duo released four albums between 1996 and 2000. In 1990, McGuire published a novel co-written with Logan White. A paperback, In the Midst of Wolves told a story about a group of bikers who come to know God. As of 2006, he takes engagements which include a few songs and talks on a mixture of topics, by both McGuire and his wife. The McGuires resided in Fresno, California on their return to the United States but have since moved back to New Zealand.
