Robin Pecknold - Blue Spotted Tail (live acoustic)

this version of "blue spotted tail" comes from a glastonbury session in 2009 and therefore was played well before the glorious "helplessness blues" was released in 2011. the band didn't add much to the song while recording it in studio, letting it's simplicity speak for itself. pecknold's version of "on a good day" sounds like it's being played during soundcheck or something - lots of reverb (as though it's in a huge, empty space) and the lack of audience accompaniment makes me think so. hoping to see lots of the group's magic tonight at massey hall in toronto!
