Hi, when you have time you may like to listen to Pink Floyd Echoes Live at Pompeii 1972 or you could go right back to their early years in the 60’s when Syd Barrett was with them .. try See Emily Play or Arnold Layne .. Years later and after Roger Waters had left the band (1985) he recorded an album Radio KAOS (1987) also a Waters less Pink Floyd recorded an album The Division Bell (1994).. both well worth a listen and will give you an insight into their music, but honestly there is so much more to these icons it’s like a never ending journey you can only make one step at a time .. Best Wishes from🇬🇧UK
The inspiration for the lyrics came about as the vocalist and guitarist, David Gilmour, was learning to fly aeroplanes at the time of the recording, often spending time in the air during the mornings before arriving at the studio in the afternoon. Drummer, Nick Mason, is also a pilot. This track is from the late 1980s. Their most noteworthy work was from the 1970s. It is generally better to reaction to studio versions first (before live versions) and avoid official videos which are edits of the songs.
@@BimuReacts You are welcome! In the 70s, each album had an overarching concept. My personal favourite is "Animals" (1977) - which is not about animals but about people, lol. As you listen to each song on the album the concept is explored more fully. The marriage of lyrics and music is magical. There is a 2018 remix which is stunning.
Floydicus Pinkus is a genre unto themselves. As you’ll learn if you explore their catalog, they don’t write sappy love songs. They write about life and death (“Time”), greed (“Money”), the mental-health damage we do to kids in school (“Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)”), the loss of a close friend and bandmate to mental-health issues and excessive psychedelic drug use (“Wish You Were Here”), and the list goes on. Their final studio album was “The Division Bell”. When they toured to support the album, they may have understood that it would end up being their last tour. So they blew out ALL the stops, built the most expensive tour in history to that point, and later released an audio CD and then a DVD of their performance called “PULSE” (so named because the original CD contained a red LED in the spine which flashed, or ‘pulsed’) The PULSE concert has been called arguably one of the greatest live performances ever recorded. Every song is very possibly the best version of that song; the concert was uniformly spectacular. I encourage you to put on the DVD (or, now, the Blu-Ray version) and just be amazed. There just isn’t music like this anymore. For those of us lucky enough to see the show live, it was a lifetime memory, and as hard as it is to believe, the live concert was even better than it looks on video. (You’ll understand once you’ve seen some performances.) They had speakers placed around the rim of the venue, so music and sound could come at you from above, behind you, the other side of the arena-anywhere. And the lights were SO tightly synced to the music, it was like they were another performer in the show. I saw the tour with 65,000 of my closest friends at Sun Devil Stadium, a full-size American football structure. But Pink Floyd’s MASSIVE black stage DOMINATED the venue. 130-foot arch, 180 feet wide, ENCRUSTED with hundreds of lights……once the lights went down, Pink Floyd unveiled their own reality, and for three hours they let us visit them there. A mind-blowing show. (If you’re curious about the stage, you can read the details on Wikipedia.) And the song that brought the house down was “Comfortably Numb”, off their double album “The Wall”. The studio version is greatly loved and highly respected, but the PULSE version is on another level. You really need to react to the PULSE version of “Comfortably Numb”. Pink Floyd, for most of its existence, was comprised of David Gilmour on guitar, and lead and supporting vocals, Roger Waters on base guitar, and lead and supporting vocals, Nick Mason on drums, and Rick Wright on keyboards. Originally, their lead guitarist was Syd Barrett, who sang, wrote and played on their first three albums. But his performances, and eventually even his ability to show up to gigs, became affected by both mental health issues, and excessive psychedelic drug use. He was replaced by his friend Gilmour, and the rest is history. Waters became the driving force behind their most successful albums, all of which were concept albums. Both Wright and Waters also ended up leaving the band in the 80’s, citing personal tensions, but Wright eventually returned. I hope you delve deeper into this legendary band’s catalog. Their 1973 album “The Dark Side Of The Moon”, has sold over 45 million copies, has been on the Billboard Top LP’s and Tapes for 988 weeks, and is the fourth-best-selling album in history. It’s also been selected for preservation by the Library of Congress. It’s worth checking out.
Love Pink Floyd - best band ever. The talent level is amazing. Try Comfortably Numb live at the Pulse concert 1994. Great light show, great music, greatest guitar solo ever!
OK young man...Lets cut too the chase. Whatever song you want to react to, go too PINK FLOYD LIVE PULSE CONCERT 1994. Except for "HEY YOU" and "Young Lust" which are excellent studio recordings. "COMFORTABLY NUMB" maybe the greatest live guitar solo ever !!! "LEARNING TO FLY" stunned me with excellent drumming that was not in the video you just watch. Get you goosebumps with these two classics.
I would add that Pink Floyd should always be live, from 1971 live in Pompeii to Pulse, 1994. But most of their songs and albums are also brilliant recordings. The Great Gig In The Sky is brilliant live from 1994, but the original recorded version vocals by Clare Torre are the best by far. Best to listen to the album version of Time and The Great Gig first.....listen as one song in 2 parts . Our own personal TIME ends with The Great Gig.
A música mais famosa do Pink Floyd com certeza é "Another Brick In The Wall". É insana, perfeita. Você vai gostar. Veja vídeo original, pois traz uma mensagem forte.
I just discovered Pink Floyd ❤so give me good recommendations and share your story about them. ✨

Time and Us and Them are epic musically and lyrically.
Pink Floyd are their own genre.Like Queen no catagory can hold either band❤

I'll check it out!
Pink Floyd from their very beginning were impossible to put into a genre. They created their own genre which they alone live within
Pink Floyd is their own genre but they are rock, generally.
OK young man...Lets cut too the chase. Whatever song you want to react to, go too PINK FLOYD LIVE PULSE CONCERT 1994. Except for "HEY YOU" and "Young Lust" which are excellent studio recordings.

take it back- Pink Floyd
I would add that Pink Floyd should always be live, from 1971 live in Pompeii to Pulse, 1994.
But most of their songs and albums are also brilliant recordings.
The Great Gig In The Sky is brilliant live from 1994, but the original recorded version vocals by Clare Torre are the best by far.
Best to listen to the album version of Time and The Great Gig first.....listen as one song in 2 parts .
Our own personal TIME ends with The Great Gig.
Great advice ! Will do it for the next one
I saw this tour actually im 1988 in Toronto. Yhey are an experiance like none other.Check out have a cigar or wish you here or ehoes❤😂
