Heard them live as a part of the on campus free concerts at Lawrence University in Appleton, WI in the mid-1960s! One of the best concerts I ever atteneded.

Their version of this is fun as hell to play and sing; we used to play it a lot at Austin, TX coffeehouses back in the '60s. Rockin' guitar work. Also, though Ian has one of the alltime great voices, I loved the way they put Sylvia's right up there with his in a sort of duo lead, instead of lead and backup. How many musical duos are there where BOTH singers sing lead and write songs? Just about none nowadays.

Oh ... when just a young lad, Sylvia inebriated me just like the whiskey of which they sing - I truly loved this lass, and the music they make as well.

Golly, thanks for posting this! What wonderful memories of this music hearing this piece conjures up.
I always loved their musicianship and hearing their recordings now 50 years later confirms in me that real art doesn't age.

Thanks for the post. I & S at their very best, pre-Great Speckled Bird. I loved the first 3-4 Vanguard albums.
