Spider James Barbour

When I was trying to figure out the lyrics for „April Grove“ I googled the title and came across a song with the same name by a 60s band named „Chrysalis“. I was not sure if it really is a cover version, but it seems to be, because in the credits it says that „April Grove“ is written by James Barbour. At first I couldn’t find out who James Barbour is, but it turns out he is also known as Spider Barbour or Spider James Barbour and part of the band „Chrysalis“. So it really is a cover version! I’m curious how the original song sounds like, probably very psychedelic, judging from the lyrics and from the fact that it is from the 60s :)

Here are some links about James Barbour:

how about this: you can contact me through my website (moon-palace.de) and let me know to which email address i should send it, ok? the audio quality is not so perfect by the way, because it's recorded from a vinyl, and then also one little "jump" at one part...
