Re: (TV) Re: OT: Uncut/Mojo TV articles - Pink Floyd compilation

To totally geek out for a moment, "Jugband" wasn't even _on_ Piper, 
but was on _Saucerful of Secrets_, which I recall as a pretty weak 
effort in which the rest of the band gradually learned to write 
songs.  Waters scored a couple good ones, though, with "Set the 
Controls for the Heart of the Sun" and "Corporal Clegg," which is 
pretty obviously the first trace of what later became _The Wall_ 
*and* _The Final Cut_.   (A cynic might say it covers the topic in a 
couple of minutes, with some pathos and some humor.)

Pardon me while I try to think of how many years it's been since I've 
heard that record.

Nope, sorry.  Can't do it.  But I will agree that "Jugband" is an odd 
choice, especially with "Clegg" on the same album (but which I'm sure 
wasn't included--or was it?)

Not actually the Pink Floyd fan this post would seem to suggest,
