In the first part of Echoes I know Gilmour and Wright sing in harmony. I know its these two because thats who is singing on the Live At Pompeii clip. But who is doing the higher pitch part?

[QUOTE=Riva]Very cool movie.

Has anyone heard Wright's solo work? I love it.[/QUOTE]

Hmm no I haven't but I am quite interested ... how much has he done and are they available in teh shops?

[QUOTE=Collis]Hmm no I haven't but I am quite interested ... how much has he done and are they available in teh shops?[/QUOTE]

He's made two solo albums so far. The first one was done in '78 called Wet Dream. I actually saw this in a record shop in NYC, but didn't have the money to buy it after all the other records I was getting. Apparently people say it's rather mediocre. The other one he did is called Broken China, and that was made in '96 I think...at least somewhere around there. That one was pretty good according to the reviews. Both of these records are pretty rare as I've only seen the first one on vinyl and neither of them on cd.

Probally Gilmour. Gilmour has the highest vocal range of any of the band members, and Wrights voice is very deep.

He has also done a collaboration with some other guy, which was named Zee. The only album spawned from that collaboration was Identity, released somewhere in the '80s. I have however not yet heard it, nor have I heard his other solo-outings. If anyone who haves it wants to send it out, that'd be greatly appreciated.
Oh, and the albums are not that rare, just not as common as other Floyd albums. I see Wet Dream being sold on e-bay every once in a while, but have not yet purchased it. :)

On the studio version, Wright is singing the higher pitch. It's a bit hard to tell since they are both singing pretty high.
I know for sure that Wright is singing the higher pitch on Live at Pompeii.
On the Prism bootleg that many of you have, Gilmour is singing the higher pitch.

Mr. Black 07-23-2006 03:14 PM

I lent Final Cut today, I have yet to listen to it.

I leant it to a friend about a week ago. He didn't like it. :(

I love it though. Something about the "Roger" stuff appeals to me. I always find myself listening to [i]Animals[/i], [i]The Wall[/i] and [i]The Final Cut[/i] more than the rest.

Mr. Black 07-24-2006 04:26 AM

I listen to WYWH far more than any other Floyd album.

Np - Welcome To The Machine.

BigTrav415 07-24-2006 01:24 PM

My WYWH phase might have even been longer than my DSotM phase, which was truely prodigious in its length and intensity, now that I think about it. I'm not really in a phase for any album right now, except maybe Europe '72 by the Grateful Dead. All of my Pink Floyd album phases can be noted historically for their sheer power over my mind and the severe psychological problems they caused which I still carry with me today.

I knooooow you rider, gonna miss me when I'm goooooooone

Oh god, save me from the Dead :(

Yea it is, "Dead Head".

Riva 07-24-2006 06:53 PM

I probably listen to [i]Obscured By Clouds[/i] and [i]Wish You Were Here[/i] more than any other Pink Floyd album, but I really love the aura Roger lent to his "domineering albums", like [i]Animals, The Wall[/i] and [i]The Final Cut[/i]. Maybe it was worth him being such an arse...

Lunch 07-24-2006 07:04 PM

Hijack and turn into Grateful Dead thread.

Trav, it's impossible to get away from the Dead. They just keep suck you in and next thing you know you can't stop buying their live albums (DPs 4, 16, 29 and 36 are on their way to me as we speak).

Riva 07-24-2006 07:14 PM

Ah. Well, I've always liked the Dead. Never been a Dead Head though.

Danger Bird 07-24-2006 08:38 PM

I saw Pulse on VH1 at like 1 in the morning a few nights ago, anybody else?

I would like to be a deadhead but I'm not, and I think you have to have been to a dead show to be a deadhead, and it's too late now.

I think I've listened to Meddle more than any. I think because I was so affected by Live at Pompeii. One of the most amazing performances I've ever seen. After that it would have to be WUWH.

Haha, it's ok. You can be a dead head if you want.

Lunch 07-25-2006 11:11 AM

I would never call myself a Deadhead because I haven't seen any of their shows, so I can't really know what it's like. I'm like a new generation Deadhead.

Live At Pompeii is just awesome; some of the interviews are irritating though because it appears to me as if Floyd were very arrogant (And not just Waters ...), but it may have been just a growing up thing :p . It's also funny when Wright and Gilmour mess up their lines on the first part of Echoes :thumb:

I dont ever listen to the Grateful Dead either

Anglachel 07-25-2006 03:36 PM

I'm sure everyone in this thread knows about Roger Waters touring.

And for my first post in this thread, I would like to ask;

In september hes gonna be here (in Toronto) and me and my dad like some of his stuff (NP: The Pros and Cons Of Hitch Hiking - Running Shoes) and I kinda want to go...

But tickets are over 100 dollars.

EDIT: Looking up the tickets, its in the Air Canada Center, to be at the back would cost: $125
Floor Tickerts: $650

That seems pretty ridiculous, but.....
END EDIT

Over the radio I heard he was gonna play the entire Dark Side Of The Moon, but I still think hes gonna play a lot more of his stuff, not PFs...

So.....

Will the price be worth it?

Go: 2
No: 0

I saw him at Roskilde Festival 2006. The sound was superb, the best I have ever heard. He even placed loudspeakers around the concertplace so you get this stereo effect. I didn't get the entire show, because I had to go home, which means I got to hear Another Brick in the Wall pt.2 (and the preceding introtrack), Comfortably Numb and some other song I couldn't really recognize over 1 kilometer away. But he/they played all the famous tracks, and they did it great. Only minus was some of his cheesy, political songs written outside of Pink Floyd, like the one against George Bush (Leaving Beirut).

I recommend that you go, but then again, I wasn't in the same situation pricewise.

edit: I just found the setlist. Great show.

In the Flesh
Mother
Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

If he's doing Dark Side Of The Moon, then yes you shold definatly go.

Riva 07-25-2006 06:34 PM

That's an awesome setlist.

And on the topic of [i]Live At Pompeii[/i]; I reckon that the interviewer was on the verge of punching Roger during that scene when they're eating the oysters.

unComfortablyNumb 07-26-2006 03:20 AM

Quick question. My friend told me he heard a PF song that Nick Mason sang in, but he didn't remember which one it was. Do any of you know what song (or songs) Nick sang in?
