recently saw a nine-year-old play "comfortably numb" on ukulele during a backyard bbq ... ruled.
― tylerw, Monday, 16 July 2018 17:21 (six years ago) link
Nothing on a ukulele rules. Quite the opposite, in fact.
No exceptions.

pretty sure that comfortably numb is incapable of not ruling, just a lil scientific fact

i think it's safe to conclude the sheer fact that PINK FLOYD RULES created a Rule Bubble in space-time extending to that ukulele during the duration of "Comfortably Numb"

Never realized the early recordings with "Lucy Leave" were done at the same Decca studio where the Beatles did their audition tape early 1962.

Got a copy of the Kopp book! He thinks "Astronomy Domine" might have been influenced by this (was the B-side of "Get Me to the World on Time"):

It's part of PF lore that Rick Wright quotes a fragment of the vocal melody of See Emily Play right on the fade out of Shine On... I can kinda hear it but it has always sounded like a bit of a stretch to me, has anyone seen/read a confirmation that this was intentional?
It occurs at 12'12" and it's the 'Emily Tries, but misunderstands' bit, in case you don't already know.
― MaresNest, Friday, 3 August 2018 18:33 (six years ago) link
Boy, I don't hear it. Between the saxophone and the guitar arpeggios that seem to be in both channels (?), all I'm hearing are keyboard chords in the middle.
― timellison, Friday, 3 August 2018 19:03 (six years ago) link
It's a fragment, right as it starts to fade -

Apologies, I should have clarified that it takes place during Parts 6-9, not 1-5.
― MaresNest, Friday, 3 August 2018 19:14 (six years ago) link
not only was it intentional, in some live versions they quote "arnold layne" at the end.
― Arch Bacon (rushomancy), Friday, 3 August 2018 23:28 (six years ago) link
i'm less convinced that the nod to the "doctor who" theme in the studio "one of these days" was originally intentional. obviously the '87-onward versions contain an intentional nod to it, and i've heard bootlegs from as early as '73 that explicitly reference the theme, but for me at least the jury's still out on the "meddle" version.
― Arch Bacon (rushomancy), Friday, 3 August 2018 23:32 (six years ago) link
yeah in fact I never noticed the similarity until Delicate Sound of Thunder came out
― akm, Saturday, 4 August 2018 01:03 (six years ago) link
First time paying attention to that one and it seems pretty intentional like the “see emily plays” vocal line. Nice hommage to Syd there.

I was thinking the other day how so much more appealing Pink Floyd were when they had a bit of mystery about 'em and nobody knew much about the internal politics etc. and no one band member was drawing attention to themselves. Success fucked that all up.

Back from the days when nobody knew who Roger Waters was... he was just another guy in an excellent space-rock band. The ego had yet to inflate, and the arsehole in him had yet to become apparent.

Their music post-Syd and pre-DSOTM can be so pleasant and unassuming.

xp as i get older, i get less irritated with band "villains" (waters, robbie robertson etc) — they just seem like maybe the most hard-working, ambitious members of a group who accidentally turn into jerks.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 8 August 2018 21:28 (six years ago) link
It's more that I like how "low key" the band members generally kept themselves '69-'72, it gave the Floyd a bit of mystery and put the music at the forefront. While getting to know the band as "personalities" doesn't prevent 'Shine on You Crazy Diamond', 'Dogs' or 'Comfortably Numb' from ruling, I wish they'd tried to keep a little mystery a la Kraftwerk or their earlier selves.
