Eire Apparent - The Clown (1968)

  • 5 years ago
I uploaded a slideshow video of this song seven years ago, but feel it needs a much more dynamic approach. This is not so much revised as done over again. Same song by the Northern Irish rock band Eire Apparent. Lead guitar on this track was by Jimi Hendrix who also produced the album it was on (Sunrise, completed October 1968 but not released until May 1969). Additional backup vocals by Noel Redding, bassist and rhythm guitarist of the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Robert Wyatt, drummer of Soft Machine. I uploaded this in time for Halloween two years ago on YouTube, but it immediately got three dislikes by some haters in the U.S. (I think I know who at least two of them are). Well, it's going back up to stay this time .. so screw it! Whatza matter? No sense of humor? Woo-hoo! I'm just clownin' around, LOL!!
