TrackTalk
Things like Lady Jane were calculated before we even went into the studio.
Brian was getting into dulcimer then. Because
he dug Richard Farina... We were also listening to a lot of Appalachian
music then too. To me, Lady Jane is very Elizabethan. There are
a few places in England where people still speak that way, Chaucer
English.
Lady Jane is a complete sort of very
weird song. I don't really know what that's all about myself. All the
names
are historical but it was really unconscious that they should fit
together
from the same period.
