Heard this on an old documentary clip and had to Shazam it, turned out to be by Focus of all things (there was also some PFM on the soundtrack)

It has the same "clawhammer" fingerpicking style as Dear Prudence, etc.
Probably where they got it from.

Makes sense, but there's also that little rising and falling at the end of lines that's quite a characteristic Gilmour (?) vocal thing. The harmony recalls CSN&Y though maybe.

Could easily have been an Obscured By Clouds outtake

That Rain Parade song is double Floyd, like Syd Barrett meets Meddle.

Spidergawd/ Eep Hour off of Jerry Garcia’s first solo record definitely would fit on a pre-Dark Side LP with that hazy chord progression and the sailing pedal steel.

Had not listened to that LP in well over a decade and it is a good listen.

JJ Cale’s instrumental “Durango” is on the Venn diagram where the Chooglin’ meets the Floyd. Cool track.
