Pink Floyd-Classic or dud

They did share concert bills together a couple of times. If memory serves, there was one 1969 concert that was PF, Fleetwood Mac, and VdGG.

That could just be the best concert bill ever.

Dave and Nick still have some cool friends from the old days.

Brent Hinds, in the Mastadon docu-making-of for Blood Mountain remarked that he wanted to end the album in a way akin to Floyd. Except, instead of dogs barking he was going to use a kitten. Hi-larious!

Already put my hand up

i'm putting it on right now

argh dogs is so good right now

although wish you were here is kinda awesome too

TS (or compare and contrast) -- Pink Floyd's "Echoes" vs. the Damned's "Curtain Call"

The conclusion of "Sheep" is one of my fave PF moments ever.

YES!!!

the part where the guitars burst into that beautiful descending thing? i think that's it! that's one of my fav PH moments ever as well!

It's like a little story built on guitar and ambience.

i'm gonna smoke now

"You! Get up! Oi......... I'VE GOT A LITTLE BLACK BOOK WITH ME POEMS IN!!!"

=)

what happens there? does the mind, like the body, fall apart?

haha sorry i'm just bored and keeping my finger busy

More like Ween and the Flaming Lips. aka the two best bands of this generation.

that's enough to justify them existing, but a lot of the rest, well...let's just say- they padded well.

BBC reporting Rick Wright has died.

Fucking cancer

By the way, what about that advert for Direct Live insurance that starts out with what is fairly blatantly a version of "Careful With That Axe, Eugene" which, jarringly and bizarrely, turns into the Direct Live tune at the end?

man Floyd is kind of a perfect Sunday band...started with Meddle this morning, and after an absolutely gorgeous day (and an afternoon in the park) I'm listening to Dark Side now...it's just like, ahhhhhhh (going into a nuts week too; take me away, Clare Torry)...

Echoes, man...

mannnnnn

Damned stoners.

learnin things about this song on wikipedia
- The second half of the song where Gilmour plays muted notes on the guitar over Wright's slowly building organ solo was inspired by the Beach Boys song "Good Vibrations".
- The title "Echoes" was also subjected to significant revisions before and after the release of Meddle: Waters, a devoted football fan, proposed that the band call its new piece "We Won the Double" in celebration of Arsenal's 1971 victory, and during a 1972 tour of Germany he jovially introduced it on two consecutive nights as "Looking Through the Knothole in Granny's Wooden Leg" (a reference to The Goon Show; the phrase appeared in an episode titled "The £50 Cure")[5] and "The March of the Dam Busters", respectively.
- Similar to the Dark Side of the Rainbow effect,[6] some listeners suggested that "Echoes" synchronizes with Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey when played concurrently with the final segment (titled "Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite").
- The 1973 George Greenough film "Crystal Voyager" concludes with a 23 minute segment in which the full length of "Echoes" accompanies a montage of images shot by Greenough from a camera mounted on his back while surfing on his kneeboard.

I knew I was in love with the woman who would later become my wife when we got to Pompeii and proceeded to express our deep appreciation for PF @ Pompeii.
