David McWilliams - Days Of Pearly Spencer

This promotional film benefits from the complete absence of Dave Lee "Tragic" Travis. Of course the song was later covered by Marc Almond.

I remember in about 1967 or 1968, my friend telling me that the chorus of this song sounded different, because McWilliams had not finished the song in the recording studio, and so "Phoned in" the chorus, which was then laid down on the track. How ironic that this video shows this in the reverse

Iron trees smother the air
but withering they stand and stare
thro' eyes that neither know nor care
where the grass has gone How more futuristc can could he have been
This was prophesy !!

This is the one and only original....marc Almonds version sounds like crap vs. this one from david mcwilliams.

@ganimed1976 100% correct. The Almond had a f'ing cheek to piss-around with this. It's always been a priceless number to me. I hope to God I'm right in assuming - as I always have - that D McW is the creator of it !!
