I am seeking to be the wisest of Pink Floyd, but I have a long and wearisome journey before me. You must Quiz me about Pink Floyd and I must answer it alone or if not just check on the internet it will increase my knowledge. I am not fucking around. I want to be the very best right under them.
>>

Their best seller is DSOTM but it all comes down to personnal opinion.
>>
>>73671926
Something like household objects? Never heard a damn song from it actually I learned that when two music teachers were talking about it and I overheard it.
>>
>>73671933
Funny shit is that no pink floyd member even sang that song, its actually a guy named roy harper. Never looked into it so Imma guess that its that black jazz player because they took the name pink floyd from him and another black jazz player.
>>
>>73671959
K how about we trade knowledge. Which song originally was just 14 parts all named "nothing"
>>
>>73671904

Impromptu name chosen by Syd, an amalgamation of the names of his two favourite blues artists.
>>
>>73672173
Pink Floyd played in like underground places and shit like the beatles did for a lil while. But you got me there, dont know. Pink floyd the name, though, comes from Two black jazz players one is like Pink Anderssen or Anderson and the other is Floyd Council.
>>
>>73672208

>>
>>73672183

>>
>>73672208
>>73672260
Someone stop answering it's confusing desu
>>
>>73672173
Heres one for you. What was Pink Floyds Original temporary name. Before Pink floyd, they chose one. Hell the name is still very popular because it was taken a few decades later but a bit altered in plural to singular.
>>
>>73671904
Why is Richard Wright so underrated? The guy was so essential in all their different eras and also wrote some of their best tracks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXUa_oWiE6Q
>>
>>73672317
73672260 is OP, so is this. Who gives a shit lets make it for everybody.
>>
>>73672349
I am actually outraged about how he was underrated he was so essential to making the songs and giving the tones.
>>

>>
>>73672406
Well imma guess Astronomy Domine or if you meant fully fully electronic Id say Welcome to The machine.
>>
>>73671904

>>
>>73672088
>jazz
Wrong, they were bluesmen.
>>
>>73672136
>>73672183
why would they chose the name Echoes when Son of Nothing and Return of the Son of Nothing are much better names?
>>
>>73672629
Fuck. Well two black blues guys I only learned it in a documentary I saw once.
>>
>>73671904
Why would they do a concert in the middle of pompeii? shouldn't they have known nobody lives in pompeii anymore?
>>
>>73672645
Well they say echoes are like us humans communicating. Dont tell me why in the fuck is it related to an echo, but you know. The song is about how we are all the same, yet, we always ignore each other.
>>
>>73672674
Rhetorical?
>>
>>73672645
>>73672681
Might also have something to do with how they changed up the theme of the song. I once read that earlier versions of the lyrics were about two planets colliding in space, but that was changed because the band was worried about how the media had been labeling them as 'space rock' and thought this song might help to perpetuate that. This is only speculation though.
>>
>>73672753
Yeah I heard that they were in this space theme for a while.
>>
>>73672609
After I posted that, I realized/remembered that he was rehired as a session musician, so that question is rendered void. Sorry about that.

Though because he was on as a session musician during the tour, he was the only one of them to turn a profit, so there's an interesting fact for you.
>>
>>73672808
Thanks for the clarification.
>>
>>73671904

>>73672893

>>
>>73673111

Alternatively, How did Pink Floyd manage to get Bob Geldof to star in The Wall?
>>
>>73673089
Yeah, I've heard it, one of my favourites too. I meant that I never heard anything about Mason doing vocals for it.
>>
>>73673265

>>
>>73673301
I see. Thanks.

>During this summer Barrett had his first LSD trip in the garden of friend Dave Gale,[39][40] with Ian Moore and Storm Thorgerson.[nb 3][39] During one trip, Barrett and another friend, Paul Charrier, ended up naked in the bath, reciting: "No rules, no rules".[41] That summer, as a consequence of the continuation of drug use, the band became absorbed in Sant Mat, a Sikh sect. Storm Thorgerson (then living on Earlham Street) and Barrett went to a London hotel to meet the sect's guru; Thorgerson managed to join the sect, while Barrett, however, was deemed too young to join. Thorgerson perceives this as a deeply important event in Barrett's life, as he was intensely upset by the rejection.
>>
>>73671904
What was the context of "Wish you were here" i knew there was some but i never knew what it was?
>>
>>73673530
Bob Geldof told his agent in a cab that he didn't want to be in the movie because he hated Pink Floyd's music. the driver of the cab was Roger Waters' brother. after finding out Geldof basically guilted himself into the role
>>
>>73673679
It was made for Syd Barrett to commemorate him and such. But, it has some other parts like have a cigar that describe and aspiring rockstar and like in welcome to the machine he realises the music industry is just a big money making machine. Still, referring a bit to Barrett. Shine on you crazy diamond both 1-9 are for Syd Barrett only.
>>
>>73673761
Haha get fucked Bob Geldof.
>>
what famous musicians wife was afraid of Roger Water and by extension Pink Floyd?
>>
>>73673762
Follow up, there is small clip from what i assume is a tv show or something at the start of the track...what is that?
>>
>>73673810
it's random flipping through radio stations. they recorded that in David Gilmours car. a bit of Tchaikovsky's 4th symphony is in there
>>
>>73673810
Its not the focus on the tv show, its about making an image of a wrecked man, bored, watching tv. And deciding to do something. Because you also hear him grunt and clear his throat, before reaching a guitar.
>>
>>73671904
you just watch the elders react to floyd, kiddo?
