This was actually recorded when they called themselves Tea Set.
Two months after Syd Barrett joined, in December 1964 (or
early 1965 according to some sources), the group recorded a demo of
their first few songs in a small, Decca-owned studio in Broadhurst
Gardens, West Hampstead. This comprised a cover of “I’m a King
Bee” by Slim Harpo (this was the only cover they ever recorded),
three compositions by Barrett (“Butterfly,”
“Lucy Leave,” and “Remember Me”), a collective number entitled,
“Double O Bo,” and Roger Waters very first composition: “Walk
With Me Sydney.” Their first auditions were not long in coming—for
a new club called Beat City, for the famous ITV television show
Ready Steady Go! and for the Countdown Club (three ninety-minute
sets per evening). Bob Klose left the group in summer 1965 to
concentrate on his studies, while Syd Barrett and David Gilmour set
off for the South of France. It was soon after this that Tea Set was
renamed the Pink Floyd Sound (as a tribute to two American South
bluesmen) and the group was offered new gigs in various clubs and
universities.
