Lyrics:
Long John Silver ring in his ear
He's the hero, make that clear
Does the same thing his father did
Sailing around the Caribbean
Robing king with his talking parrot
This time I think he's on the high side
Scabs are forming, scraped his knee
Guards are warning a bad man is free
He's like electric clock that needs no winding
Keeps the time without your hands
Western feet need no binding take
A barefoot run through old Japan
He's seen a thousand countries
They're all the same
Some men crazy, some men sane
But all men are ruled by a flag or a game
He knows Nobody's got you
If you don't sign your name
Long John Silver serves no king
No land holds him, that's why he feels like singing
Every country now and then
Roars like Irish, drunk and singing
Every monk will now and then
Call his men to hear the wenches night bells ringing
#JeffersonAirplane #EmbryonicJourney #OfficialAudio

This acoustic instrumental fully reveals guitarist Jorma Kaukonen’s remarkable fingerpicking style. The artist composed the tune in 1962 as part of a guitar workshop in Santa Clara, later including it on Jefferson Airplane’s “Surrealistic Pillow” LP (1967) at the band’s behest. In “Embryonic Journey,” Kaukonen encapsulates the utmost musical optimism. In an interview, he stated : “I wish I could tell you how that came to pass. I was obviously in an in-the-moment process that I was able to capture as it happened. I was fooling around in a drop D tuning in a workshop I was giving. A friend said ‘you oughta check that out.’ So I made it into a song. It just made sense to me.” Jorma Ludwig Kaukonen Jr. was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 as a member of Jefferson Airplane. HATS 🎩 OFF TO YOU, MAESTRO‼️ 💙🎼💚

I finally learned to play this several years ago. I bought Jorma’s video on how to play it. But even he doesn’t do it the same way twice. If you’re playing this in a guitar store…You’ll get major respect. Second song I play when I pick up an acoustic in a music store. First is ELP’s From The Beginning.

I've seen vids of Jorma playing this and other really good covers as well....but something about the original version is primitive and haunting that you don't get with the other versions.

@haroldsteinblatt2567 4 жыл бұрын

I just wrote the exact same thing to a friend. It’s the drive, and also it was new to him, and probably thrilling. When something becomes a classic, you can’t alter it, and the further from it’s creation, the less power it has. Maybe if he played it before a huge crowd ... but that isn’t going to happen.

@craighill388 4 жыл бұрын

@@haroldsteinblatt2567 Actually, there is a y/tube video of him playing E/Journey at his induction into the R/R Hall of Fame, you should check it out. It's in front of a large audience but it lacks that haunting sound of the original even though it's the same guy who wrote the song in the first place. As well, I don't like the sound of the guitar he's playing, it doesn't do the song justice and it's not what he usually plays either.

@haroldsteinblatt2567 4 жыл бұрын

Another element is different: the reverb. If nothing else,, the later recordings made it possible for guitarists to learn it without having to pay for expensive, often inaccurate tablature But we agree: the original is the standard.

@Ferocious_Imbecile 4 жыл бұрын

@@haroldsteinblatt2567 Yeah the reverb is so intense it made me think he played it with a 12 string. This is by far the best recording and it's the best thing ever put on a Jefferson Airplane album. Maybe the best thing to come out of that entire SF/West Coast music scene of the 60's.
