Boon Tune

[edit]

"They recorded a song Barrett had written in a few minutes" is taken from Malcolm Jones' memories, but according to Chris Joe Beard, in his autobiography Taking The Purple the Boon Tune song was presented to The Purple Gang in January 1967 as a follow-up for Granny Takes A Trip. Boon Tune was refused by the management though as they wanted to keep all copyrights within the band. Felix Atagong (talk) 18:25, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Re-write required

[edit]

Lee Harris writes ([1]):

It is actually Willie playing drums and not Jerry Shirley (famed drummer of Humble Pie) and there is no bass on the track

and:

Furthermore, David Gilmour who was one of the producers on The Madcap Laughs double checked the multi tracks whilst I wrote this and told me “Willie is definitely the drummer on this. Jerry is not playing bass on it. There was no bass on the session, which is why I wanted to add one, back whenever it was.”
