    Don't forget there's the alternate version where Waters and Gilmour sing the song instead of Roy Harper:

    ^^^never heard that version before, thx

    I kind of like it better (seems slowed down) but somewhat not finalized.
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    Have a Cigar is totally great. The lyrics alone make it that way.

    Now, if you want to hear the worst-ever version, seek out the live version with Roy Harper. It's beyond terrible.
