PINK FLOYD

syd sings the "she'll be scrubbing floors on all fours" bit

That Pepperland show is great - each attempt at Astronomy Domine gets more and more furious.

Listening to the '72 show from Chicago on the Dark Side tour and this is great. The first thing in years that's made me excited about Dark Side again.

pink floyd was my gateway drug into all kinds of ridic music, mostly on the new agey and keyboard and drone and echoing guitar tip. i listen to all kinds of music and i think i can trace it back somehow to the floyd.

*steeples fingers* tell me more abt ridic new agey keyboard drone music

Christmas Eve, I had dinner with one of my best friends and his girlfriend. I listened to Dark Side of the Moon for the first time. After the first side, I was very surprised that we were already halfway through, that it's only a single album.

We did the whole stupid Wizard of Oz thing 15 years ago, and one of my friends whom I thought had listened to every record ever recorded leans and says, "Huh, that Dark Side album wasn't what I was expecting." I'm incredulous, "What? THAT was your first time hearing that record? Here on the floor of Josh's house with Judy Garland on the VCR?"

He says yeah, didn't realize that there would be all those snippets of people talking.

lol Mr Veg and I did the Wizard of Oz thing not long after we met - accompanied by a box of lol whipits

I feel like I saw maybe 5 minutes of the actual thing and spent the rest of the movie having much better dreams about it

The Echoes/2001 thing works better and, Lord, only takes 20 minutes.

ridic new agey keyboard drone music could easily be another board on ILX.

.....a board I would regularly visit.

i spent two years of lolcollege living with huge stoners, so we did the Oz/Dark Side thing quite a few times. we also did the Wish You Were Here/It's a Wonderful Life one but i hardly remember anything about it other than it being a huge stretch.

I still love it, but I listen to DSOTM the least out of the middle period. However the parallel dimension early mix on the Immersion box is interesting to listen to.

as long as we all agree that PINK FLOYD RULES then any views on DSOTM are cool

DSOTM is sometimes my most favorite floyd album

The rest of the time, it's "Animals," as with all right-thinking people. RIGHT?

was there ever a bootleg of the interview answers that McCartney did? he did sit down and do the Q+A supposedly.

xpost yeah, pretty much

but sometimes it's also Meddle, Piper or The Wall.

I've been listening to More and Obscured By Clouds on recent bike rides.

There was a plan to remix OBC because they weren't happy with the production, dunno if that has been junked. The early years box set is still on the cards though, what form it will take is uncertain.

Marcello went long with The Final Cut with his usual aplomb:

THE PINK FLOYD RULES

I'm finally reading Nick Mason's book Inside Out. Nick rules, even if there is roughly zero insight into anything.

i wonder what this Hans Keller thought of them after 10 years or so
xpost

xps the 'one can only imagine a __-year-old disaffected blond boy in washington state must have heard _________ and oh how the world was forever changed' construct gets less effective with each use

"This Hans Keller" was a very important figure in contemporary classical music in the UK, but he always liked his stuff with a bit of a tune.

this hans keller was an asshole as far as i can tell from this interview

He could really play and worked hard to expose high quality modern music on the tv. He was also an Austrian snob. No contradiction there.

who puts "an important figure in classical music" to judge rock acts on tv?
well, it was the sixties on the other hand..

He had a famous bit where he got a couple of stage hands to beat on some drums and play with some oscillators, and he introduced it as an important new work by modern Polish composer Piotr Zak. The "a-ha!" reveal came a few weeks later, but its impact was dulled when most of the critics he thought he'd embarrass called the work crap.

I just love that there was a time when a TV host would introduce a band he was hosting on his show by saying he found them "quite boring".

Also, they should have kept the "The" in their name, fo sho

"Have you encountered any hostility towards your creations?"

"Yes, from you about ten minutes ago, asshole."

Hans Keller...

"After all, ..... .... Why Not?"

stop it guys! after all - he " was a very important figure in contemporary classical music in the UK"!

and he had a normal conversation with Syd Barrett

Silly angry tone deaf nostormo.
