[QUOTE]PATGOD wouldn't be what it was if Syd wasn't a druggie, alot of the creativity probably wouldn't have been there in my opinion. But I know what you mean, it's sad that such a young artist with such great potential ruined his life with LSD.[/QUOTE]Even I have to admit I don't think PATGOD would be PATGOD if Albert didn't create such an awsome drug. Truth is without LSD [I]Piper at the Gates of Dawn[/I] would't exist. It wasn't just the drugs either Syd was always a bit of a schizo. The drugs didn't help though. :(

I'm [I]hopefuly[/I] getting some next week. :D

Do you mean LSD? Because, I mean, aren't you a tad bit worried about it. People like Brian Wilson went nuts from bad trips, didn't they? I know Shrooms can't hurt you to bad, but I wouldn't try the LSD...

Eep. I misunderstood. My apologies.

On the topic of drugs...

I'm probably going to be trying shrooms pretty soon. Also, next time I visit my friends in Seattle, I've got a good buddy who wants to do mescaline and go to a laser show with me. I'm not sure about that yet. I want to do a bit of research on mescaline first.

BigTrav415 10-08-2005 09:51 AM

So, now that I've finally gotten a CD burner, I think I'll make an Trav's Ultimate Floyd: '71-'79 mix for my friends. Now, I understand that it's hard to make a 'Greatest Hits' of Floyd, because of the way their albums are melded together and such, but considering this is coming out of a true Floyd fan, I think I can make it good. Here's what I think I'm gonna put on there.

1. One of These Days
2. Fearless
3. San Tropez
4. Breathe
5. Time
6. Any Colour You Like
7. Brain Damage
8. SOYCD pts. 1-V
9. Welcome to the Machine
10. Wish You Were Here
11. Pigs on the Wing pts. 1 and 2 (If someone could upload that for me, the one with the solo, I'd 'prreciate it :) BigTrav415 -at- gmail.com)
12. Is There Anybody Out There?
13. Nobody Home
14. Comfortably Numb
15. Echoes

I hope I can fit that all on one disc :( If not, I'll just take a few off, I don't really want to make it a two-disc thing. And if you have Pigs on the Wing pts.1 and 2 ;)

DeusExMachina 10-08-2005 09:59 AM

You won't be able to fit that. Does sound like a good little mix, though. You've got almost all of Meddle there!

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]You won't be able to fit that. Does sound like a good little mix, though. You've got almost all of Meddle there![/QUOTE]
Yeah, Meddle's probably my favorite Floyd album. I'll probably take off Any Colour You Like, Welcome to the Machine, Is There Anybidy Out There, and Nobody Home. I know that only leaves me with one Wall song, but whatever. Maybe I'll only have to take off a couple. Remember, Pigs on the Wing w/ solo, if anyone has it ;)

[QUOTE=Lunch]The version of Saucerful of Secrets is great on Pompeii.[/QUOTE]

aboslutely. It and ummagumma could be merged into the best version (longer intro and last section off ummagumma, middle part form pompeii with the opscillating delay pedal).

Pompeii is my favourite floyd release.

magicbus 10-08-2005 10:49 AM

I love the end of the Ummagumma version. Gilmour's vocals are so haunting, I get chills everytime I hear that part.

Dried Muffin Remnants 10-08-2005 11:19 AM

Meddle is my favorite PF album also. Sure there aren't many songs, but EVERY song on there is great and Echoes, One of these Days, and Fearless are probably in my top 5 favorite PF songs. Others are Time and Brain Damage.

I don't beleive it......it extremly rare and expensive. Not to mention mescaline is not really a northern drug. He may be talking about peyote or acid but mescaline? The chances of that are extremly slim. If he does seriously have it you're the luckist person in the world and will have an absoultly AMAZING trip. It's just as intense as acid......[QUOTE]Do you mean LSD? Because, I mean, aren't you a tad bit worried about it. People like Brian Wilson went nuts from bad trips, didn't they?

Nothing in the world could make me not want to try it. I'm sooooo ready for it. I've done the research, tripped on shrooms many times and I used to be afraid of it like you but I have overcome that fear. I can't wait to get it.

Excuse me for the drug talk.....:p

I've been looking for the AMLOR review for a while now and I still can't find it. Can someone write a review for it?

I'm not going to write a big review, but it's a good album. Instrumentally great, although somewhat lacking in the depth/lyrics department. More poppy than most Floyd stuff, but still definitely worthwhile, especially if you're really into Floyd.

Wow, I don't even know what Mescaline is... I think I'll just leave it at "Drugs are bad, M'ky"

Come to think of it, am I the only one in this thread who doesn't do drugs? Before coming to this site I was all like "oh my god, someone smoked weed, they're the devil." Now I sort of understand that its not all that bad.

I thought Mescaline was considerably weaker than LSD.

I don't do drugs either, and many (weed, acid, shrooms) really aren't that bad. In fact, even saying 'aren't that bad' is the wrong idea. They aren't bad, just dangerous if used wrong. BTW if I did do drugs it would be shrooms or acid, out in the wilderness somewhere.

The whole idea of Shrooms or Acid scare the sh'it out of me. If I ever did something it would be small dosage of weed.

There are so many insane myths about shrooms and acid that you really can't believe. I've heard some real whoppers. It CAN mess you up, but if you're careful and know what you're doing, the risk is as low or lower than plenty of other activities people often do.

just saying, but shrooms are mushrooms that grow from cow crap

I don't do drugs either cuz they're stupid.

Awesome band. I love the whole "Wish You Were Here" album

Yield 10-08-2005 03:59 PM

The whole album is awesome. Probally one of the best forty minutes in my life

MBS 10-08-2005 04:02 PM

Yeah, let's try to stray away from the drug talks.

Wish You Were Here is such an excellent album. My least favorite track is Welcome to the Machine, favorite is the title track.

I prefer Welcome to the Machine over Have a Cigar [I]and[/I] Wish You Were Here (bet you don't hear many people say that!). Shine On You Crazy Diamond is untouchable....it's probably one of the most brilliant songs I've ever heard.

I agree. Welcome to the Machine is one of the best Floyd songs there is. Its got a darker tone than most of the others

Definitely. Although I'm listening to Have a Cigar right now and god **** it's a great song...I can really never judge Pink Floyd songs because I always just like the one I'm listening to at the moment the most.

Danger Bird 10-08-2005 04:18 PM

Could somebody please upload the studio versions of Sysyphus: part's I-IV and The Grand Vizier's Garden Party- part's I-III from Ummagumma on [url]www.yousendit.com[/url] and send it to [email]BPMead007@hotmail.com[/email]?

I would be eternally grateful.

The thing I like about all of the albums is the thing where ten or five songs can blend together as one song

I'm very drug tolerant, but i never do them myself. I'm hesitant to even drink nowadays.

SRVS Greatest Fan 10-08-2005 05:54 PM

The Wall Sucked *** to 80's ish... Except Comfortably Numb and Wall 2-3
Time
Money
Welcome to the Machine
Echoes
One of these Days
