I saw part of it now, and it's a behind the wall thing, it doesn't appear on the DVD of the Wall, though. They show a lot of them playing a lot of the songs from the Wall live, as well as interviews with all of PF.

None of them liked the idea of the Wall, except Waters.

Yeah, that would've sucked so much ***. You go to see the band play and you get treated with a huge wall instead. That's way Gilmour plays on top of the wall, and somethings are projected to the wall. If not, the tour would've been a flopp... Unless you only care about paying for the music.

He doesn't do anything now. They say that everything that reminds of him of his past depresses him for weeks. On his mother's deathbed, she asked that none of the PF members have any contact with him. They say that everytime he paints something new, when he finishes, he burns them. He has diabetes too, and he usually neglects his insuline(sp?) shots.

Oh yea, and they know that he lives in Cambridge, but people usually don't recognize him since every old guy there has the same looks.

He is the most interesting member of PF... at least for me.

DeusExMachina
03-23-2005, 04:11 PM

03-23-2005, 06:14 PM
Worse. If Syd stayed in the band, he would've been the primary song writer. The only reason the others wrote was because they tried to keep going without Syd. They completely relied on him when he was in the band, and tried to copy him for quite awhile after he left. And, personally, Waters + Gilmour > Barrett.

slowhand
03-23-2005, 06:22 PM
But many people think that if Syd would've kept going he would've been the greatest songwritter. They had a lot of fate with him, plus, Set The Controls For the Heart of the Sun was written while Syd was still in the band, though not Waters best work lyrically, it showed that he had the potential if he kept going. It would've been another Harrison thing with Waters. Maybe Syd would've dominated at first, but Rog might have kept writting and evolving until what we all know and love about him.

Of course, if Syd wouldn't have gone, well, mad, things like SOYCD and WYWH might not have ever existed... and the world would have been a sadder one.

Did you read Saucerful of Secrets, the Pink Floyd Odyssey?

That's what I read.

It said something like "One day he hopes to be well enough to take the bus to and from an office"

I highly doubt that's gonna happen though.

Syd Barrett IMO is one of the most interesting people ever.

I must disagree. The only album that was below their standards towards the end of their careers was Let it Be, and you can understand why it was once you know the hell they went through during those sessions. But Abbey Road, their last recorded album, for me, it's their best all together piece of work, forget Sgt. Pepper.

... But yeah, my favourite album of theirs is still the White Album.

What else are you into? You sound like you might either be a nu metal fanboy, or into Britney Spears. It takes a real musician to notice the talents that Pink Floyd has. Roger Waters is arguably one of the most adept lyricists of his time. Gilmour can put emotion into his guitar like no other, and Pink Floyd's over all genius is top notch. Now to say that DSotM is crap after one run, that's just utterly moronic. Come back in a week after listening to it 10 times and give us a real opinion.

slowhand
03-23-2005, 09:14 PM
I know where he's coming from. I still remember the day I bought DSOTM. I bought it alongside Led Zeppelin (I) and Live Cream Vol. 2. After hearing Zeppelin and Cream first, I put on Floyd and I was all: "What's this?"

I didn't hear the album for about a month or so, then I started to listened to it again, and began to see the good things, and it began to grow on me. At first I couldn't understand the big thing about the instrumentals, then I got it, I found them so intriguing.

But hearing DSOTM just one time won't do. Of course, not everyone can be a Floyd fan.

My favorite is the Ummagumma version. It just sounds so creepy. And on Pompeii, you see him doing it. I think the effortlessness Roger appears to have while screaming makes it less intense.

It's scarier on the Live at Pompeii.. when I saw him screaming, I didn't know what to do. It's really hard to scream low like that, he must've passed a lot of days without voice because of that.

This drops off after Dark Side of the Moon. I mean they had a few songs like that, but none that did it as well as they could in their old days. Shine On comes close, but it doesn't hit it they way a song like Echoes or Saucerful of Secrets hits me.

I've really been getting deep into Floyd in the last few months - I've always loved The Wall & DSOTM - just never ventured past them. (Thrash got me at a young age)

I picked up Meddle on a whim, HOLY ****!! what a genius album! Echoes alone is worth the album, Pillow of Winds, Fearless, One of these Days, all genius songs. San Tropez & Semus have the "classic Queen wtf songs" effect on me, I just have to skip them(ala Big Bad Leroy Brown)

Since then I picked up Animals, and Wish You Were Here - and am blown away by this stuff. The Animals disc I got had a "bonus album" on it, A Saucerful of Secrets - I wasn't overly impressed - it was lacking most of the stuff I love about Floyd. (stony, ride cymbal mellowness, great vocal melodies & harmonies, soaring guitar solos, ect) There is an amazing jump in songwriting from ASOS to Meddle.

So, other than DSOTM, Meddle, WYWH, Animals, & The Wall - are there any other great classic Floyd albums?(as if thats not enough lol) I've seen mixed reviews for early Floyd, and the soundtrack albums. It's confusing, when even the band says some of their old stuff sucks!

And for vocals, I have a hard time figuring out who sings what - Is Gilmour the "lead" singer for the most part? I know Waters sings Brain Damage/Eclipse, and a bunch of the Wall stuff - but on the bulk of the classic singing, is taht Gilmour? Who does the harmonies? Like on Echoes, or on Time - Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain" those lines - who sings that?

Sorry for some noobish questions, but I can't find this **** in interviews, ect.

I reckon the only other indispensable Pink Floyd album for a Floyd fan is The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, which was their debut album, and is very psychedelic...it's the only album where Dave Gilmour doesn't play, but where Syd Barrett is the lead guitarist. Other than that, the band has a few good albums, but not any others that I'd consider great, although I know people will disagree with me here. I fully agree about the band's songwriting skills progressing though. Other than The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, I never really listen to any of their stuff recorded before Meddle on a regular basis.

On Time, I think I'm right in saying that Gilmour does the bulk of the singing, although Richard Wright also sings on the track. The majority of The Dark Side Of The Moon is sung by Gilmour, with the exceptions being Brain Damage/Eclipse. Gilmour also sings onEchoes as well. Basically after The Dark Side Of The Moon Waters took over the main singing duties, until he left the band. Before then Gilmour did most of the singing.

Obscured By Clouds is a great album, one of my favorite Floyd albums. But I love anything by floyd.

I like Piper, anyways, I think it is going to be inevitable for Waters to finally start taking more control, even if it would be a bit later. Pink Floyd with Syd I don't think would be the same though. Maybe David Gilmour might have joined with them? Or the band saw Waters trying to take more control kicked him out, and Syd would bring his friend Gilmour and Syd would take Waters position while retaining the songwriting and Gilmour would do lead guitar. I think a good idea would be all of them though, with Syd on rythem and Gilmour on lead.

With all that aside, I think what Pink Floyd became was great. Roger Waters and David Gilmour together is what most people think about with Pink Floyds music. People look at the albums like Darkside, Animals and The Wall. As much as I like Syd I think PINK FLOYD as we know them today was better with Waters and Gilmour.

Anyways, whoever was talking about Animals should definately get it. All the songs are great and the album flows so nice.

I'm guessing those are also the only ones you've heard, too.

You should buy DSOTM and maybe Animals, Wish You Were Here, or the Wall to get into some more Floyd.

Well, what do you guys think would've happened if Jeff Beck would've joined Pink Floyd instead of David Gilmour?

I think it would've been much like the Floyd today, except the guitar solos wouldn't be as "epic", but more on the quirky side. That's how I'd see it, if you get what I mean.

Something about Jeff Beck's music makes me view it as "goofier". Not as serious, or playful might be better word choices.

That just would've been wrong.

Well, it's safe to say that Pink Floyd wouldn't have been the same. But, would it have been better? I think that it would have been a more progressive band than it is. Gilmour is a very conservative guitarist, more to the style of Eric Clapton, not like Beck, or King Crimson's Fripp, or even Yes' Howe.

But I'm happy how it turned out, so yeah.

I just got The Wall demo tapes (well on cd). Its interesting, I think the demo's are more Waters view on how it should sound. Thank god Gilmour stepped in and changed some parts. For example, there wasn't suppose to be a solo on Another Brick In The Wall part two.

well on a completely different thing i was just reading the hard rock cafe post and i was reminded of when i was driving on the highway 7 in Canada on the way to toronto and there was this sort of ontario housing deal and it looked pretty runned down and on the side (facing the highway) it was all pretty bad looking but standing out in black paint on the brick wall was PINK FLOYD THE WALL drawn just like on the CD cover. I thought that was pretty cool and laughed all the way to toronto.

I know man, I mean loses all importance after the first minute and a half. Something that was cool though was Waters did the Careful With That Axe Eugene scream during ABITW part one. You know Waters owes so much to Gilmour. I mean I love Waters, but if Gilmour did as little work as he originally did on the Wall it would have been horrible.

Nah the song kind of like another brick in the wall part one. Another difference is in the first verse Waters says "We don't need no education, we don't need no crowd control"

... I'm kind of bored, so I'm gonna post some Pink Floyd trivia. Here I go:

To get the people talking bits on Dark Side of The Moon, generic cue cards were passed around to everyone they could find around Abbey Road, like janitors, engineers and even Wings, including Paul and Linda McCartney. There were passing around 20 questions, like "What do you think about the phrase 'dark side of the moon'?" "When was the last time you were violent, and were you in the right?", and "Are you afraid of dying?" The most sponataneous answers were used in the album. Paul and Linda didn't make the cut, though.

The studio time were interupted for two reasons: soccer and Monty Python television broadcast. The band were such great Monty Python fans that they used some of the earnings they made with Dark Side of the Moon to help fund Monty Python's The Holy Grail film.

Those are the only two I'll post now. Kind of tired.

I think thats Gilmour's best vocal work.

Careful With This Axe Eugene = Waters best vocals
Echoes = the bands (non Syd) best overall song (mabye shine on)
One of These Days = Waters best bass line

On Careful With That Axe Eugene Gilmour has vocals, where he sings with his guitar. and that is one of my favorite songs guitar wise (the pompeii version).

They are a great band, maybe the most innovative band since Pink Floyd. They deserve all the praise they are getting and more.

And it also makes me proud to say that Omar is Puerto Rican, and that he's one of the great guitarist on the rock scene right now.

More trivia then:

David Gilmour had had a bet with their manager that Dark Side of the Moon wouldn't crack the US top 10.

The original title for Dark Side of the Moon was going to be 'Eclipsed,' (many of you know this). They were going to name it that because Medicine Head, a folk rock act, released an album in 1972 by the name of Dark Side of the Moon. But since Medicine Head's album flopped, they decided to call theirs Dark Side of the Moon.

Dark Side of the Moon was first performed at the Dome in Brighton, England, June 20th 1972. But due to malfunctions with the tapes, they were only able to reach Money that evening.

That's all for now... Maybe more later. I suppose.

I agree with what Riva said. I'd say that for consistency, Gilmour's solos on Wish You Were Here are his best. Obviously you've got both parts of Shine On You Crazy Diamond which his guitar absolutely makes, but the guitar intro and outro to Wish You Were Here is so beautiful as well. I still think that's the band's best album, and one of my favourites of all time as well.
