"Because it took so long to make it.." , "Never have that recipe again"..
Apparently it's Richard Harris that initially made the song a big hit in 68. I didn't know that until now.
I admire Richard Harris as an actor, but I'm not sure I'm nuts about his singing. I mean, the guy just really sounds half cocked singing this song,although he prolly enjoyed a few pints when they recorded it.
It's interesting that an English lad would refuse to use proper grammer by insisting on singing "McAuthors Park" rather than the proper phrasing "McAuthor Park": It's not plural. Again, I think RIchard may have been toasted when he recorded it.
BUt I'm a Pink Floyd fan anyhow.
