What
Syd Barrett songs does Phish cover?
Phish covers four Syd Barrett songs. Rosemary McIntosh posted (5/31/94 to rmp) "about Syd Barret's songs the difference between Love You and Terrapin and there is no Honey Love:
Syd Barrett is an ex-member of Pink Floyd. He can be called "eccentric" at best. :-) Two of his songs were covered rarely. "Baby Lemonade" was played only once, on 3/11/92, but with a bagpipe/vacuum combination performance (repeated March 11, 17, 20, 21, 24, 28, and 30 and May 1, 1992.). "No Good Trying" was played only twice, on 12/7/90 and 12/28/90. Three more were in more "regular" (if you can call it that) rotation. An old Pink Floyd song, _Bike_ was debuted by Fishman on 11/19/87. It starts "I've got a bike you can ride it if you like." From Syd's solo album, The Madcap Laughs came "Terrapin" (first played 7/23/88) "I really love you and I mean you, stars above you crystal blue, oh baby my hair's on end about you." Also from "Madcap Laughs" is _Love You_ (first played 10/31/90) "Honey love you honey little honey funny Sunday morning love you more funny love in the skyline baby, Ice cream 'scuse me I seen you lookin good the other evening" This is the song that is often incorrectly labeled "Honey Love" or "Honey Love Ya" but the correct title is "Love You". ... If you haven't heard The Madcap Laughs, check it out! There's a great Henrietta reference in the song "If It's in You."
"Only Syd Barrett could make Fish play the vaccuum twice in one show. Thanks for coming down. He's up there on the second balcony." -- Trey, 7/11/96 II
