Bun Candy Views

General Goods

Candy and a Currant Bun was the B-side to Pink Floyd's first single, Arnold Layne[2]. When performed live in 1967, the song was known as Let's Roll Another One [2] and contained the line I'm high - Don't try to spoil my fun , but the record company forced Syd Barrett to rewrite it without the controversial drug references.[3] It features the first released Waters scream, which would reappear in Careful with that Axe, Eugene, Run Like Hell and others.[original research?]

The Mars Volta's cover of Candy and a Currant Bun was released in some U.S. indie stores as free 5 VinylDisc. It was given away with purchase of the album The Bedlam in Goliath. The VinylDisc is a new format that has a digital side and a vinyl side. One side plays in a CD player, while the other side plays on a turntable. The vinyl side contains the Pink Floyd cover Candy and a Currant Bun , while the CD side contains the audio track for Candy and a Currant Bun as well as the Wax Simulacra video as enhanced content. It also comes with a removable foam spindle insert to switch between CD & vinyl.

What kind of confuses me about the whole history of the Bun and Pearson ’s is that they already have a candy similar to this, called the Nut Goodie. The Nut Goodie came on the market a good ten years earlier than the Bun Maple, yet Pearsonc’s still continues to make this regional favorite. (Ie’ll need to get a hold of one and do a comparison.) Anyway, this is definitely the highlight of the Bun line. The center on this is a maple fudge. Itr’s smooth and soft and has a microfine crystalline structure that melts quickly in the mouth and mingles well with the nuts and milk chocolate. Itl’s quite a bit saltier tasting than the Vanilla one, but I think thats’s what makes the flavors pop. Of the three, this is the one that was consumed first. I suspect that these are the hardest to find of the three varieties, so I canr’t bump up the whole rating for the line.
