Any Colour You Like ~ Pink Floyd

I think few songs will make you feel at the same level of a re****ed monkey while trying to cover them. Any Colour You Like is on top of the list. And you actually do not cover it. You play through the spirit and try to get closer to the version you heard and that is repeating in your head. One of the most changing tracks. Few are the notes that differ from version to version. Such a unique piece.
And if one day you want to try it, use some noiseless pickups, just as this guy did.

Summer 68 • Pink Floyd

Needless to mention the new Pink Floyd Album, everyone is writing about it. But who-else of you guys noticed that one track is called Autumn 68? Is it related to Summer 68 from Atom Hear Mother, which is, and that's so important to mention, a Rick Wright Song and one of the few tracks on which Rick got credit?
Whatever, Summer 68 is about touring and groupies. It's really Richard Wright asking a groupie how they feel about what they're doing: "have you time before I leave to greet another man?
For the ones of you that go deep into Musical details, the songs have one of the best chord progression.
Some will feel that there was a Barrett connection too. But if you analyze almost any Floyd song it would seem that there is a Barrett connection. Syd left in April of '68, so in the summer of '68 it would be logical that his absence would have had time to kick in. But to whoever said their first American tour was in the summer of '68 must have forgotten the disastrous Floyd West Coast Tour of '67.
Anyway, good thing is that you can have a lot of interpretations and imagination. Good for us.

Pink Floyd - Point me at the sky (Early single)

This early Pink Floyd song was written by David Gilmour and Roger Waters; it was released a week before Christmas 1968.

In a BBC TV documentary screened on December 12, 2007, the band explained how this song came about. Syd Barrett had been the band's original songwriter, but by this time his well documented descent into mental illness had made him impossible to work with. Barrett's songs like "See Emily Play" were largely short, snappy and commercial as well as psychedelic, obscure or having some novelty value. Gilmour and Waters were under pressure from their record company to continue in the same vein, but they couldn't write singles, and this attempt to imitate Barrett's inimitable style was “one notable failure when Syd left the band.” After it flopped, the Floyd largely abandoned singles and concentrated on longer tracks, producing a number of fine concept albums.

The song is basically an invitation from a character named Henry McLean to his girlfriend to join him in his flying machine, though it is possibly not to be taken literally.

Point me at the sky by Pink Ployd. Lyrics: Hey, Eugene, This is Henry McClean And I've finished my beautiful flying machine And I'm ringing to say That I'm l...

Do you my fellow get this feeling too? This song, this one particular recording of this song, that I'm sure you never heard by the way. 35 minutes, endless solo.
We're in Oakland, May 9th 1977, no video recording. Strange version, unreal, so "rich" in mistakes, because whenever Dave does mistakes, it is magical moment. He even missed the beginning of Part 3 and the first words of his vocal part. It really takes me away and there is nothing in front of my eyes but the visual images of some sort regarding Pink Floyd that my brain shows me, Roger over-acting face, Dave's long hair, Ricks fingers on the Keyboard, Rick's face and art and shining and all the s**t... Then a journey inside my brain starts, I go back to when I discovered the band and got amazingly surprised by Rick's way of "Fusion" with the Keyboards, I remember many different things, I remember even when I googled his name and found out he's dead. Every year that passes I realize how this world is too much far from having such an artist again. I remember how sweet he brought to us through his music… For everything he did and for what David had him as his Musical Partner. Everything about this song is magical. Rick's touch on keyboards creates an ocean on which I float... Lots of love and respect to him. Ladies and Gentlemen, Shine on you Crazy Diamond, Part I to IX (because it is important to mention it), to the memory of Rick.

Amazing recording of Another Brick in the wall, @ Earl Court in 1980, one of Pink Floyd's favorite stages. Additionally to David, Roger and Nick, Rick Wright and Peter Wood were both playing the keyboards, Rick on organ and Peter on electric piano. Part of the guitar solo, which was on a Gibson Les Paul came from a different show as David made some mistakes on original audio of that night.

Pink Floyd - Young Lust (Live)

Young Lust is about the sometimes grotesque lifestyle of rock stars and their love lives (or lack thereof). The clichés of s*x and Rock and Roll are a satire of the music common to the era.

But, and since many are mistaken, because they do not listen to Pink Floyd songs without making any connexion to the track that comes before or after, the phone conversation does NOT begin after or before the song. It occurs before the song "Empty Spaces" on the album. The dialog after this song (before "One of My Turns") is when the rock star brings one of the groupies with him to the hotel room he's staying in.

(Sound of door opening, closing)
Groupie: Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?!
(Sounds of television)
Groupie: Can I get a drink of water? You want some? Huh? Oh, wow! Look at this tub! (in s*xy, inviting tones) you wanna take a bath?!
(TV still playing)
Groupie: What're you watching? Hello!! Are you feelin' OK?

Updated audio from "Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980-81". The video was recorded August 9th, 1980.

Welcome to the machine is about the money-grubbing record producers and managers controlling the band, which contributed to Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett's mental collapse: The world around him was like a machine: the fans, the group, the record industry. They told him what to do and when to do it so they would become successful. The Wish You Were Here album revolves around Syd Barrett and what contributed to his collapse.

The song is notable for its use of heavily processed synthesizers and acoustic guitars, as well as a wide and varied range of tape effects. For this (later dropped) draft version here, Rick used some heavy chic effects, class!

So this is what recently popped up, a "work in progress" version of Shine on You crazy Diamond Part I to VIII minus Part IX since it was not recorded yet at that time. it was probably recorded on a forgotten tape somewhere in london. The track popped with a magnificent version of "Welcome to the Machine" and "have a cigar". Of course, audio quality was horrible, but not anymore after the super-sounding. I bet that neither Gilmour nor Waters remember this outcome.

For the ones that know the song, you would recognize how this is a draft version by the 3rd minute, and in the end, everyone was jamming through it. The last 6 minutes are simply UNIQUE and extremely Rare, guitar jam, bass solos and Keyboard melodies are mixed and the deliverable reaches a high level of creativity. You can feel that the guys were just so into the jam and they just let it go. I guess that this part was dropped down while releasing the final cut because it adds a "joy" aspect to the song which is basically a sad tribute to Syd. He would be so proud of this version, and so I am. To me it is like discovering a totally new performance. A kick-ass-twenty-four-f**king-faultless minutes piece.

Flaming Side of the Moon

The Flaming Lips' New release that surfaced today, Flaming side of the Moon, a "Compagnon" track to Pink Floyd's TDSOTM, following the same story line, and much similar to the dark side of the rainbow. It's not the first time that the band is doing a similar production, and to me, the first failed. This one is special, ITCHY and acid, so acid..

To understand the concept, there is a need of understanding the basis: Synchronicity

Detractors argue that the phenomenon is the result of the mind's tendency to think it recognizes patterns amid disorder by discarding data that does not fit. In the case of TDSOTR, it is said that is is the result of brain similarities during creation phases, and we all do know that Waters was a huge book amateur, Animals is the best example to that.

Psychologists refer to this tendency as apophenia, or confirmation bias. In this theory, a Dark Side of the Rainbow enthusiast will focus on matching moments while ignoring the greater number of instances where the film and the album do not correspond.

I'm just posting this to share the part from 3:38 to 6:57, well mainly for that single unique note played at 6:32. let's just admit that it does not exist in real life, Gilmour's bending is just making every guitarist ridiculous. The whole version, since it is one of the rarest, is worth a play, but oh god that note (plus the rhythm starting at 10:47) makes it the best SOYCD recorded version ever.
