Pink Floyd v2 - Puns, Oysters and Rock & Roll - General

You realise they're all anal in the music business yes?

[QUOTE=Clovis;31172449]Dogs is my favourite song off of Animals also, saved from page 2[/QUOTE] Gilmour's masterpiece. Although he doesn't quite "bend" as much as he has done, I think some of his best guitar work is there.

[QUOTE=Clovis;31172449]Dogs is my favourite song off of Animals also, saved from page 2[/QUOTE] Mine's Sheep. It's basically my favorite song ever.

I dunno, I fade between favorite songs, each one lasting 2 weeks or so. Let's see... the progression was like this I believe Great Gig in the Sky (discovery of Pink Floyd) Time Shine On You Crazy Diamond Jugband Blues Sheep Echoes Careful With That Axe, Eugene (Ummagumma) Might've left something out.

Atom Heart Mother for me.

Never heard I have this weird attitude that with few exceptions I refuse to listen to a song on Youtube or something if I don't have the CD

what lol? [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41TFHGM1MYL._SL500_AA300_.jpg[/img] I am aware of the existence of the album, I have simply not heard it

Oh God guys, I listened to Careful with that Axe, Eugene for the first time today. My body wasn't ready... no human should be able to make such an inhuman sound like that... [editline]17th July 2011[/editline] is roger waters a xenomorph or something

[quote]The music consists of a light, organ-based jam (using the "Egyptian" style organ that is common of Richard Wright in this period), and an accompanying bass guitar playing just one tone (in this case, D) in octaves, with a segue into the song's only lyrics: the title of the song whispered menacingly, followed by a [highlight]Roger Waters[/highlight] scream, as in "Candy and a Currant Bun". This scream would reappear on many subsequent songs such as "Run Like Hell", the very beginning of "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2", and "Two Suns in the Sunset". Then the song becomes much louder and more intense before gradually settling down again. In the heavier parts and later, quieter parts, David Gilmour can be heard with guitar and scat vocals; in concert, Gilmour would often sing along with his guitar line.[/quote] Source on it being Nick Mason? Also, I saw a live version of the song once (on Youtube). Waters was most definitely singing, and the weird part is, he screamed some even [i]before[/i] the ominous whisper. And when he did, he looked very happy in a [b]extremely[/b] creepy way

Whoops, I had a brainfart. I mixed up One of These Days with Axe for some reason.

I just bought Meddle. Kinda late for me. That edited version of Echoes on Echoes:The Best of Pink Floyd (which isn't that great of a compilation btw) isn't nearly as epic as the original.

I dunno that I've made enough of an effort to compare the two that I can tell the difference. For all I know, the compilation album might be a newer version than my old Meddle CD, and might have a better remastering.

oh my god he is so optimistically beautiful for someone that wrote like one love song ever

Also, Richard Wright didn't change much. His hair only got gray.

now Nick Mason though [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/88/Nick_Mason_cropped.jpg[/img] not if he was the last man on Earth

He's got some elf/dwarf like qualities to him.
