i've been listening to a 1974 bootleg that smokes, w/ early versions of animals tracks + "crazy diamond" + full dark side + echoes! awesome. they sound kinda more raw/rocking here. not like the stooges or anything, but ... Seems weird that the Floyd haven't put out a rad career-spanning live set or something.

[fuck this guy and his question mark]Pink Floyd Rules?I've actually felt better about Pink Floyd. After listening to a lot of their songs on radio, I've developed a liking to them. I still some of their songs are crap, but "comfertabally numb" "another brick in the wall, pt 1, 2, and 3", "Money", "Hey You" and other songs are very good. They're pretty good, let them pass.
My brother hates Pink Floyd, but a lot of my friends like them. Some user (Bart247) suggested once I listen to the Dark Side Of The Moon. All I've heard is Money, but that's a good song. I will put these guys on my "Master's Of Rock" series, and expect to see more episodes in the future.
I'd thought I'd post this up to tell you my changed opinions on Pink Floyd. Although they might not be the best band ever, they're one of the best. I have The Wall album already, but maybe I'll look forward to listening to them more.

― birdistheword, Thursday, 23 December 2021 17:18 (six months ago) link
Critical reaction to the suite has always been mixed, and all band members have expressed negativity toward it in recent times. Gilmour has said the album was "a load of rubbish. We were at a real down point ... I think we were scraping the barrel a bit at that period" and "a good idea but it was dreadful... Atom Heart Mother sounds like we didn't have any idea between us, but we became much more prolific after it." Similarly, in a 1984 interview on BBC Radio 1, Waters said "If somebody said to me now – right – here's a million pounds, go out and play Atom Heart Mother, I'd say you must be fucking joking."
― xzanfar, Thursday, 23 December 2021 21:57 (six months ago) link
It's been long established that if Gilmour and Waters hate something it's almost certainly worth listening to.

I remember seeing footage of Gilmour sitting in with a PInk Floyd cover band to play Atom Heart Mother, which I thought was a pretty great thing to do. Imagine being in a PF tribute and playing with big Dave himself! I think Ron Geesin was involved in the performance, so it wasn’t totally random.

Wasn't too impressed when I saw them at the Roundhouse in 2018. After a promising start, they played most of the songs with a fast the same insistent tempo and no variation - it was like early Pink Floyd mixed with the sense of timing of a Bavarian Ompah Band.

so which one is pink? it is not gilmour because he was not there when it was first named and it was not klose because it was still named so when he left early and it was not barrett because he went mad and it still kept going and it was not waters when he thought the final cut was the end and it came back and it was not wright because he was not officially part of it when they made amlor so pink must be mason who was in the beginning till the end!

The adrift period post-Syd, pre-Atom Heart Mother is their most interesting and rewarding imo, and probably what I return to the most having burnt myself out on Syd as a bratty tween. Not so much the proper albums but could probably put together a comp of stuff from that time incl. bootlegs, radio, soundtracks etc that I'd prefer over any of their albums.
A few of the best things are included on 'The Early Years', you should pirate that.

Interesting, UK label Burning Shed are advertising a PF bootleg - outside the 50yr limit - https://burningshed.com/pink-floyd_the-heart-of-the-sun_cd
Someone from Yeeshkul mailed them to find out more details, and if it was legit, this is the reply -
Many thanks for your query.As you suggest, this release has not been officially endorsed by either Pink Floyd or the band’s label. However, despite that, it is 100% legitimate and is being distributed by a reputable UK company.From what we’ve been told, the release is allowable as a result of copyright laws relating to US radio recordings and the record company would have remastered the original source recordings (which being produced by a radio station should be of a high quality).

Well, this is kinda unusual, in that Burning Shed wouldn't have a leg to stand on if they got sued into atoms by Tony Smith or Roger Waters' people. Seems very risky, I know PF did the copyright dump recently with loads of sub-par boots, what's odd is, they're all still up on streaming sites, I thought the point was you took them down after a week or so?
