Subject: RE: Help: The Hanged Man
My transcription was not from the Record/CD but from a session back in the late 60's early 70's and may not be exactly the same as the recorded version - some words may have been mis-read from the drunken scrawl(Not mine!!!)

I'll most likely stick with the words I know (sung too many times for too long to change)but I will add an ammended version to my archives - funny enough although the original copy I was given has "Beasts" written down I have always sung "bees" - as it made more sense to me.

The time change in the chorus must be fun to program into midi! - when we recorded it in '75 we managed to obtain a great portive organ sound on the chorus using a very old "portable" mains powered reed organ.

cheers,

Pete -

PS - anyone in the Radio Lancashire area of England - we'll be going out on air live at about 14.50 bst this afternoon and there's an montage on Singleton clogger sometime between 15.00 - 15.30 from their outside broadcast unit
