Re: Jugband Blues
But Keith, Moom hates drugs with a passion
Anyway, on topic i do love this song. Been a fan for a good few years now so i don't often listen to floyd stuff anymore. But this is one of few songs i go back to quite often
Actually i guess i have got far more in to Syd within the last year. Like i had his solo albums but never bothered with them, then they kept on coming on when i put my Ipod on shuffle so love Syd's stuff now.
Especially The Madcap Laughs
But Jugband Blues is a great last floyd song for him with really rather sad lyrics that seem to effectively convey his state of mind at the time

Re: Jugband Blues
I think the BBC version is more poignant than the album version. Syd's vocal take is better and has a nice reverb on it that all and all is more is more flattering to the wistful feeling of this great song. I like the freeform section with just the Floyd rather than the Salvation Army section on Saucerful. The coda on the BBC version is especially beautiful because of Rick's harmony vocal that is not on the album version.

Re: Jugband Blues
On one hand, the improvisation is better here, but Syd's kinda lazy... I know-I know, he was loaded, but... too lazy.

Re: Jugband Blues
Isn't he playing an acoustic guitar on that song? What do you expect him to do? Acoustic guitars do not really fit into that style at all unless they are there entirely for rhythmic purposes.moom wrote:On one hand, the improvisation is better here, but Syd's kinda lazy...

Re: Jugband Blues
^^ Although not intended to be funny, but just the fact that PI is pointing out the discrepancies of moom, makes it hilarious, for me anyways.
Jugband Blues is one of the best songs off of ASOS!
