I wasted a ton of time on this site during 7th grade lunch hours, anyone else?
The record that kickstarted my Floyd obsession around that time was actually a bootleg- sorry, RoIO- a cassette dub of this that I bought for $2 off a street bookseller.
Really miss that tape and wish I still had it! Even tho the tracklist is super weird and I have everything on it in way better quality.

that's pretty rad, ofc I'd leave off the post-Wall stuff personally but it's no surprise that radio promo was widely booted

Spent a huge amount of time on the RoIo database during the early internet age. Amazing to think we have Yeeshkull and deep threads dedicated to chasing down the genealogy of the known recordings, like people building their family trees but in reverse.

Apart from drugs, alcohol, and general exuberance, I can almost kinda see why the crowds were generally rowdy and unsettled on this tour, the whole stage presentation is weirdly menacing and unfriendly.

Never before has watching two old men having wine in a fancy restaurant been so fraught with tension.
― Halfway there but for you, Saturday, 23 January 2021 18:38 (three years ago) link
By coincidence, I listened to the "Later Years" single disc sampler today. Remixed or not, "Sorrow" still has all the apocalyptic gravitas of a Don Johnson outtake.

The film is totally cool but the soundtrack is not Pink Floyd. The rejected PF soundtrack was released on the Early Years box and it was probably the biggest surprise therein. Culminates in Syd's most atonal guitar abuse on record while Rick plays 'Old McDonald Had a Farm'. I was grinning ear to ear the first time I heard that. It's an uncharacteristically dry recording and you can really hear how they'd fit on a bill with AMM
― Adoration of the Mogwai (Deflatormouse), Tuesday, 2 February 2021 07:53 (three years ago) link
It's a long way short of AMM though! Syd and Rick acquit themselves reasonably well, especially Rick, but Roger Waters and Nick Mason are plainly not cut out for this improv malarkey.
― Waterloo Subset (Tom D.), Tuesday, 2 February 2021 14:49 (three years ago) link
That would be a ridiculously tall order tho, dontcha think?? It might be a kind of pop appropriation of AMM, I mean obviously it has nothing to do with the opacity of AMM, the blend of AMM. Quite the opposite, the bass sounds like it was plugged straight into the desk, the drums are right in your ear- and that's what's so surprising about it! There's no ambience, perfect separation. On an early pf recording! wtf??
Sure, Roger Waters couldn't improvise to save his life in those days, where it's called for he tends to fall back on stock phrases and recycled clicking noises. I swear he plays the same lick on nearly every track on PatGoD. Nick was at his best when he played it almost like he'd never seen a drum kit before.

hey does anyone here have a preferred link or links for articles/background on "Piper", aside from wikipedia?
― Überschadenfreude (sleeve), Friday, 5 February 2021 20:22 (three years ago) link
The best reference- although a bit outdated- is Random Precision by David Parker for detailed session info. Other than that, Julian Palacios's book which is apparently inspired by Jonathon Greene's 'Days in the Life', he talks to everyone in Syd's orbit and tries to put you in their time and place. Often successfully!
I didn't really care for the 33 1/3rd fwiw (barry cleveland? I don't remember)
Sorry this prob isn't hugely helpful as I believe you're looking for web resources.

Still confused as to whether you get a reel included, it *looks* like a box with a reproduction of another box, who the fuck would wish for such a thing?

Informative Yeeshkul thread on one-off, rarely played pieces
Could you guys point me to shows that contain unique or unusual performances ? Like, with songs that were known to have been performed only once or twice, or with different arrangements, or containing teases or primitive versions of other songs...I don't know if I'm clear enough, so here are two examples : - Cincinatti 1971.11.20, with the longest known Embryo containing fragments of what would become Breathe ; - Rainbow 1973.11.04 late, with a meandering 13 minute version of OBC and an abridged but thunderous WYI.

might've mentioned in another thread — an interesting reveal in Richard Thompson's new memoir is that he and Syd were distant cousins. Neither knew it until much later, but it still rules.

That's like the most fully arranged and most commercial song they recorded for the film and yet they didn't put it on the album ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe it was a bit too poppy and reminiscent of the failed post-Syd singles?

Anybody else here heard the album David Gilmour made with The Orb in 2010? I've been listening to it this morning and it's some of the driftiest shit I've ever heard. Some parts sound a little like the quieter sections of Meddle, and there's a beat occasionally, but a lot of it is just endless synth haze with a little Gilmour guitar floating through as if it's playing in the next room.
