when I was a kid I thought the "reds" in "waiting for the worms" was a slur on native americans

first time i heard a lot of those slurs -- queers, coons -- was on that album. uncle rog was telling his nieces and nephews the world can be one shitty place

"And that one's got SPOTS!" … again, The Wall was quite the comedy album for me and the other fourth-graders.

I thought he meant like "I'm seein' spots!" in the manner of Looney Tunes or something.

pinkfloyd started following you
you guys

me too! don't know what i should do.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:19 (fourteen years ago)
you should rule, too, obviously.
If they start following me too I'll let you know.

are there any bloggers in the audience tonight?GET EM UP AGAINST THE WALL
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:46 (fourteen years ago)
yes. has anyone umm, found that last DSOTM immersion disc, ummm anywhere? ummm.
Yes. The entire box can (could) be found online. Lossless, even.
The Household Objects song is a bit daft. No substance at all. The Richard Wright and Roger Waters demos are very beautiful. The early mix of DSOTM is interesting to listen too once, but the final version of the album is better in many, many ways. The Travel Sequence and Morality Sequence tracks are already known from many bootlegs. And rule!
― Sebastian (Royal Mermaid Mover), Friday, 14 October 2011 19:52 (fourteen years ago)
i've been hooked up by someone who obviously rules. listening to the alt mix. so weird to not have the lady singer on greatest gig. i mean, i'd heard the early live versions without that, but the studio version is something else altogether.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:18 (fourteen years ago)
ugh, also redonkulous that on a big huge $100+ immersion set, they can't put out a full, live early version of DSOTM. obviously available on bootlegs, but in mostly cruddy audience recordings. the live "travel/mortality" sequences sound rad here. what shows are they from, the rainbow gigs?
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:54 (fourteen years ago)
is that the "in the celebration of the comet" one? w/the thing from fantastic 4 on the cover?
i have that in my office on vinyl right now? how much does that go for?
― the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 14 October 2011 20:57 (fourteen years ago)
yeah i think that's from the rainbow shows. i will pay you at least a million dollars for that.
kinda digging the household objects snippet. slight, maybe, but it still rules.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:58 (fourteen years ago)
I was happy to hear that snippet too, but I think they were right to abandon the idea.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 14 October 2011 21:07 (fourteen years ago)
got the big new Wish box here now, going to go through it this weekend. RULES.
also has anyone heard these newly remastered Dark Side and Wish vinyl releases? They are absolutely fantastic, have never heard these albums sound so good.

I had a Dark Side of the Moon dream last night. It's pretty TMI and I didn't want to bring it onto this thread, so I'm linking to it:

funny that the official pinkfloyd.tumblr.com is bsaically taking its cues from this thread!

They follow half of us. Maybe they tracked us back to our lair.

would rule to be the floyd's official tumblr-r. just surfing the net looking for different ways to illustrate how much pink floyd rules.

Really interesting to hear that. Sounded good as a one-off, the violin fits nicely with the barroom vibe. It's too bad Grapelli didn't stick around longer during those sessions--a few more runs through and him and DG would have been trading solos. Anyway, that's just the kind of "from the vaults" thing I like hearing.
― WARS OF ARMAGEDDON (Karaoke Version) (Sparkle Motion), Thursday, 10 November 2011 21:57 (fourteen years ago)
yeah that is pretty cool!

hey Pink Floyd people I am listening to the remasters of Saucerful, Obscured By Clouds, and Meddle. They RULE. Especially Meddle. In an era where the word "CD remaster" has come to mean "red flag", these are a beacon of hope.
― sleeve, Tuesday, 15 November 2011 20:25 (fourteen years ago)
was on the verge of impulse buying a handful of these over the weekend at best buy, but didn't. regrets!
― tylerw, Tuesday, 15 November 2011 20:29 (fourteen years ago)
damn dudes, did you know that the recently surfaced stockholm barret era show recording has leaked!? i guess it is a recording of the recording being broadcast a few months back, but it is supposed to sound pretty good. acquiring now!
― tylerw, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 16:23 (fourteen years ago)
Acquire and report back!

If anyone is looking for lossless Floyd boots head over to just-add-cones.blogspot.com before they disappear.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 16:37 (fourteen years ago)
ok, bad news is that the vocals are pretty close to non existent. the good news is that this RULES. by far the clearest recording of barrett and floyd, way better than the rotterdam or copenhagen sets. like, pretty much crystal clear capture of the instruments. awesome guitar work from syd. will be posting mp3s on my blog soon. think there's a lossless torrent on dime now...
