Syd's last song with the Floyd
Syd Barrett /Pink Floyd - "Jugband Blues”
LAST SONG with Floyd December 1967 - London Line promo video
Syd Barrett /Pink Floyd - Jugband Blues” is featured on their second album, A Saucerful of Secrets, released in 1968.
Written by Syd, it was his sole compositional contribution to the album, as well as his last published for the band.The video features Barrett (shown with an acoustic guitar for the first time) and the group miming to the song in a more conventional stage setting, with psychedelic projections in the background. The original audio to the promo is lost, and most versions use the BBC recording from late 1967, consequently causing sync issues most evident as Barrett sings the opening verse.The original film was considered to be lost, until it was re-discovered in the Manchester Arts Lab in 1999. Barrett and Waters first watched the promo video during the second week of December 1967.
