Could you do an important bit of Black music History.... in 1974 3 guys from Detroit invented a new sound...they didn't know what it is or what to do with it. We now call it punk music. Please review this bit of history...D3ath - Rock n Roll ViCtim (trying wrong spelling to see if it stays up) ua-cam.com/video/7sFMDL22bxc/v-deo.html
As teens, my lil bro, cousins n I had smoked, put on my Pink Floyd album, all laid down enjoying their music. Sure miss my 4 late bros n cousins. Such great memories.
It's a saxophone. Pink Floyd is a British band. Lead singer and lead guitarist is the brilliant David Gilmour. Now you can listen to Dark Side of the Moon with headphones! Next, maybe you can react to Wish You Were Here album. We're here for it. And after that, how about doing Echoes live at Pompeii from 1971, parts 1 and 2. Hey Van, love you!
My husband raised our children on Pink Floyd. I could never get into them. Made for many a long car trip for me. I suddenly started to appreciate them about ten years ago. I'm 61 now. Don't know why it took me so long! My 17 year old grandson grooves to them too!
Carla you must have led a sheltered life. I’m 64 and grew up with Pink Floyd and other big rock bands. This is even after constant exposure to the Big Bands of the 40’s and 50’s my parents listened to. My daughter loves the music dad likes more than most of today’s music.✌️
I don't know why, just never could get into Pink Floyd until the last several years. I was, and still am, a Rush, Eagles, GnR, Skynrd girl, along with a host of others which my family is too.
@@charlalondon3057 just like food, taste changes every x period, not the least due to state of mind. I think Pink Floyd is a-ma-zing, but I'm still not a big fan of their first couple albums (basically the stuff from the 60's), too much "out there".
I'm a 21 years old Italian and my father was an Italian man with an English mother from Birmingham, his favourite band were Pink Floyd and he made me appreciate this music since I was a kid along with Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple. The only difference is that know I can comprehend the lyrics and i love it.
You owe it to yourself to give Time another listen with the headphones and maybe the lyrics in front of you. It's a powerful song. The whole album is commentary on the human condition, what drives us, greed, mortality, mental health and so on. I know everyone does the "haha I does drugs and crank the Floyd!!" routine but I've never even tried pot and the music is powerful without it.
'The Wall' is about an English rock star in the 1970s, who they refer to as 'Pink' (just a little reference to the band), who no longer has control of his own life. His father fought and died in WWII. He grew up longing for a father, but had an overbearing and overprotective mother - and now he's an adult - famous, and burned out - with everyone else controlling him - his manager, his doctor, promoters, etc. He goes where they say, takes the drugs they tell him to take to keep up his energy - giving him vitamin B shots. He feels like a puppet - he's lonely - cut off from the real world. He's sunk into drugs, alcohol, and depression - building a 'Wall' around him to protect him from the world. It's a bit autobiographical for Roger Waters, actually. The rock opera film version of "The Wall" goes into this - lots of metaphor. It goes back and forth between 'Pink' as a child in post-World War II Britain, and 'Pink' as a famous rock star in the 1970s (FYI, context is important to really understand the album. Life was tough for the Brits all the way into the late 1950s - they had food rationing, and lots of destroyed buildings (and even entire towns and villages) from German V1 and V2 rockets and aerial bombardment that took years to get cleaned up. The British education system was very formal and disciplined, and the teachers smacked the kids around a lot. There is a lot to unpack from 'The Wall', but it's a lot of fun to listen to.
Something really cool about this song - those cash register sounds at the start aren't digital samples, they were on tape. To get the timing right, they literally had a huge tape running all around the whole studio room with the sounds spaced out the right distance apart to get the timing they wanted.
@@ffjsb A couple years after The Wall was released, I heard a two hour interview with Roger Waters on the radio. He went through the entire album, song by song. The lyrics, the meaning behind them, the sound, the history. It made the album even more special to me. Believe it or not, to this day I have yet to see the movie. I probably never will.
From Day One we tell UA-camrs to listen to Pink Floyd with headphones. And then we have to hear “Why didn’t anybody tell me?” once the advice is taken.
If not mistaken it is a saxophone. Can't wait for Mother and Have a Cigar. Thanks for this. I had it on 8 track and still have my vinyl plus the CD and concert of Live In Berlin with the All-Star Rock Legends. 91 I think. Thanks for this. And they are a British Band.
The soundtrack of my youth. I bought this album back in high school in 1973 and have owned a copy of it in one form of media or another for the last 47 years. Whether it was vinyl, 8-track, cassette or CD. I also had an Original Master Recording virgin vinyl album and Super Audio CD as well.
If you want to see them live when they were super young check out Echoes live from Pompeii parts 1 and 2. These guys were dripping with talent even at a really young age!!!
Check out "Comfortably Numb" by them next. Pink Floyd was one of the biggest selling bands in rock. They are their own genre as you will discover. Lyrically, conceptually, musically, they are unmatched. It is what makes their music so timeless.
I was coming up during the Pink Floyd era, but I was in a different groove. I was into pop(club pop)remixed for all night dancing. I listened to Pink Floyd, but only in passing. Now that I’m older I can appreciate the genius of this band.
This is, and probably always will be, my favourite album of all time. I appreciate that youth nowadays, still appreciate this music, but really, you had to be there when this album came out. It was on a whole new level. The music was on a whole new level, the production was on a whole new level. You had never heard a disc as clean as this one; you'd never heard the level of channel separation before; this song being the perfect example. I glad people appreciate this timeless classic.
"New car caviar 4 star daydream, think I'll buy me a football team." - Money these are the words the teacher read in the movie clip from The Wall I highly recommend you listen to the full album first before watching the movie "The Wall". The movie is a Hollywood adaptation of the legendary album. It leaves out a key song and remixes and changes other songs. Also the intensity of some of the scenes detracts from the music. It is not the album. Listen to the music first.
The movie has three extra songs. It is missing two songs, "Hey You" and "The Show Must Go On" because they didn't fit. "Mother" changed "Is it just a waste of time" to "Mother, am I really dying" for the scene with the rat. This "changed" lyric was on the album's liner notes. Other songs have extra parts or different mixes for the movie. "Is There Anybody Out There" is played with a pick by Gilmour in the movie, but was played classical fingerstyle by a session musician on the album. The movie isn't really a "Hollywood adaptation", Roger Waters was involved directly in its production.
@@Markle2k yeah it definitely is a 2nd rate Hollywood adaptation regardless of Waters involvement - whose participation btw can best be described as one long arduous fight with director Alan Parker who swore he would never work with him again. What we were left with was something neither one of them was very proud of. The exclusion of "Hey You" alone, one of the best songs on the album, is reason enough to ignore the film before listening to the classic album. The film isn't terrible, but the album deserved something far better then what we were left with, imo.
also, Mother is completely changed instrumentally (save for Dave's solo), as is Roger's vocals style. It's not just the one line. I actually like this more slowed down, haunting version, but it's not really the same song that's on the album.
@@flubblert Your second-rate hollywood production was one of three classic films that college town movie theaters played after midnight: Rocky Horror, The Wall, and The Song Remains the Same.
@@flubblert I've seen Pink Floyd live. Every song is different in some way. The McBroom sisters (Durga on lead) sang Great Gig in the Sky instead of Clare Torry.
Ditto on the Pulse concert (1994). Watch Pink Floyd LIVE as they perform COMFORTABLY NUMB, RUN LIKE HELL, and SORROW among others. You will see 3 members of Pink Floyd from the 1960’s at around age 50 putting on performances that you will not forget. They are masters at the art of live performance.
This is the album that caused me at 15 years old to buy up as many speakers I could and wire them up creating my own surround system. I'm 41 now and am showing my 11 year old son the same experience.. The more speakers you can place in different angles throughout the room puts any Floyd album to the next level..
Pink Floyd is an English band. In the song "Time" from the "Dark Side of the Moon" album, you'll catch a lyric that says "...hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way" which is them explaining their "take" on a particular facet of life there. FUN FACT: I read that the conversations that you hear quietly in the background before, during, and after certain songs on the DSOTM album are interviews with the studio crew and/or roadies. They'd ask them questions about things like "have you ever been in a fistfight, and if so explain what happened..." and they'd record them and insert some of those bits. At the very end of the album, during the fade-out, they ask one of them about the actual dark side of the Moon, and his answer is "there isn't a dark side of the Moon really... in fact, it's ALL dark." A great, poetic ending to an album with that title!
A reference to London blitz and perservence in dark times. Churchill said it best fight in the cities...the hills on the beaches but will never surrender
One of my funniest school memories relates to this song. In drama class, we had to do a dramatic recitation of song lyrics. One of the guys did Money, and when he got to the line "Don't give me that do goody good bullsh*t", the teacher blew a gasket. He started jumping up and down screaming "Damn and Hell, Damn and Hell! You know the only cuss words you can say in here are Damn and Hell!"
Think you should revisit "Time" again. dont think you really take in the meaning behind a lot of songs when you are concentrating on driving. also check out "Echoes live from pompeii"
Fun fact: this song is in Jazz time (7/8 I think). It switches to standard rock time (4/4) for the solo because David could only do a solo in that time signature. ❤️ his guitar solos!
It's not "jazz time", but an "odd" time signature, 7/4. One Two and Three Four Five Six Se-ven. Odd signatures are those not divisible by 2 (marches), 3 (waltz/swing), or 4 (90-95% of western music, incl. jazz). The solo does, as you say, switch to common time, 4/4. "Mother" is a lot wilder with the time signature shakeups. It's mostly in 4/4, but occasionally drops an 1/8 note or three, leaving a bar of 7/8 or 5/8, or extending a bar to 9/8. The chorus starts in 4/4 but switches to 6/8. Nick Mason had a hard time with learning these changes in the recording session, so they brought in famed session drummer Jeff Porcaro. "Mother do you think they'll drop the" is a bar of 5/8 and then it goes to 4/4 with "bomb" for a few bars. Then back to 5/8 for "Mother do you think they'll like this" and then to 4/4 on "song". "Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls is all in 4/4 until "Mother should I try to build the wall" is 6/8 for the first 8th note of "wall" and then goes to 4/4 again. Repeat this pattern and then the chorus starts.
Great reaction. Pink Floyd in the car awesome. Pink Floyd all alone in the basement with headphones🤯🤯🤯🤯 unbelievable. Just listen to the album alone not reacting with headphones on. Life-changing.😀👍❤️✌️🌼 edit to say. It’s a saxophone. Roger Waters on vocals
Pink Floyd is definitely a vibe- and much more easily appreciated when using headphones. I always recommend Money, then Shine on you Crazy Diamond and then Dogs. After that there are another 50 amazing songs
Damn man, I took a little hiatus from youtube and came back to see that you blew up from the few hundred subs when I hit that thang, Jack! I'm happy to see the silver play button and a ton more charisma in front of the camera! Congratulations bro!
Really enjoying your videos thank you for making them. I would love to see your reactions to more Pink Floyd with the headphones on. And maybe the whole album cuz you know Time runs into the Great gig in the sky. Thank you miss more for helping to keep Pink Floyd alive
John Coltrane's album titled "Giant Steps" has a cover version of "My Favorite Things" which is a beautiful example of what jazz can do when reinterpreting a familiar song. It soars and creates magic.
Pink Floyd name is based after 2 African-American blues singer - Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Motown singers are the background singers you here on Dark Side of the Moon. They wanted to blend American soul with British melancholy.
Sax... and you're grooving exactly like my parents probably did in the 70s!! 😂😂 And that Miles Davis and Coltrane album is really fire... you have good fans!!!
There is a guitar player, or should I say was since he passed away quite a while ago, who isn't well known in the United States who primarily played Blues guitar. His name is Rory Gallagher and he is fantastic. I haven't seen any reactors listen to him. I recommend the song Calling Card from the album of the same name. The song not only has great guitar but it has some great bass, piano and drums as well. There are many more songs by Rory Gallagher worth listening to but I think you will really like this one.
From the same album, Dark side of the moon.. try, "The Great Gig in the Sky". If you want real soul from a UK band..... Clare Torry sings up a storm, that you will never forget, and yet not a single word is sung.
There bands that actually sound better while driving (Van Halen, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, although some Sabbath is mind blowing through headphones) and there are bands that demand to be listed to through headphones (Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Radiohead, Supertramp).
It’s Friday night. I’m by myself. And I am laughing my ass off listening to Van with his funny antics 😆 “ tell me. Tell me. I’m not playing with you.“ 😂
In 1965, there was a group of four black brothers and a white drummer called "The Chambers Brothers" that were insanely popular with several hits. Might I recommend "The Time Has Come Today". Do the LONG version, 11 minutes of absolute genius! It has been rumored that they were the ones to first perform "Sympathy For The Devil", it's on their Live album, released in 1965, three years before The Stones did it.
*WELCOME TO YOUR NEW FAMILY!!! Thank You For Watching & Supporting & Subbing & Sharing!* 🖤🖤
In case you don't know this song is from DSOTM, the movie is The Wall
David Gilmour = best guitar and lead singer .. 😎👍🎸
Hey Van... this was the 70's... Let that sink in.

Yes, absolutely! 🎧
Watch “comfortably numb Live at Pulse Concert”. You get to see them and experience what their shows are like.
Yes indeed. David Gilmour's guitar solo is epic.
I'll take Echoes at Gdasnk or Pompeii over Pulse, respectively. The solo is epic but I saw gilmour in 2016, comfortably numb was just as good cheers
The best solo bar none the man can do no wrong
Yes please just rabbithole that whole concert, Pulse never disappoints!!
One of the most amazing perfomances and guitar guitar solos ever!

David Gilmoure proving once again you don't have to play a million notes per second to have a good solo.
Less is more, baby.
Agree! Sometimes it's not what you play, it's what you don't.
Yep, it's like with a conversation, it's not about gabbling on at a rate of knots with a million words, it's the quality and the phrasing in between
True, but us folks with ADHD prefer the million notes. I love pink floyd, but they do get pretty dull and boring after a while.
@@keithgraham8588

I don't flex nuts.

Pulse live is the best way to watch and listen to PINK FLOYD hands down no question !
With headphones on.
You owe it to yourself to give Time another listen with the headphones and maybe the lyrics in front of you. It's a powerful song. The whole album is commentary on the human condition, what drives us, greed, mortality, mental health and so on. I know everyone does the "haha I does drugs and crank the Floyd!!" routine but I've never even tried pot and the music is powerful without it.
Definitely watch with lyrics!
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Can confirm. 👍⭐
Animals and wish you were here are amazing as well. Echoes too.
"Have a cigar" check it out, pretty slick 🤙
Pretty slick is an understatement!! Have a cigar is an absolute jam! Van you’d love it!!!
Pink Floyd concerts were, whether trippin', stoned or sober, changed you. You knew that what you had just experienced was unbelievably magic!

Spoiler alert.
Pretty good synopsis.
Pink is also a reference to Syd Barrett when he went dissociative/crazy in 67, also about Roger Waters himself considering his father died in the war.

To get the timing right, they literally had a huge tape running all around the whole studio room with the sounds spaced out the right distance apart to get the timing they wanted.
Just like Ad Rock .
Easy (Like Sunday Morning) is done by The Commodores and there’s a good version done by Faith No More.
Should have let him know the singer is Lionel Richie.
"Lionel Ritchie hasn't been black since The Commodores!"
Name the movie
thanx for adding FNM in your comment their version comes to mind more often to me than the Comm's just because im from the 80's/90's lol :)
Do not watch the movie until you've listened to the album in its entirety, first. The images in your head will be better than those on the screen.
well said that man

Headphones with all of Pink Floyd albums is a must a good 40 % of what is going on in the back ground is one of there best traits.
Welcome to the Machine is another very entrancing Floyd song
This bassline feels so nice to play

My favorite song from them : One of these days! Very nice to see a smiling guy enjoying Pink Floyd

When you wear the headphones listening to Floyd, it transports you back to the 70's.
One of my favorite Floyd songs.👍
Time is my favorite but this is definitely on my list of favorites but I like anything Pink Floyd ❤️
YES! Love this song! Thanks. 💯🎶💟
I've heard this so many times and I still get goose bumps from the intro
It's that blues groove that pulls you in.
Some of the cleverest lyrics and one of the best guitar solos ever. THIS Money is worth a LOT!

My Favorite Pink Floyd Album ! 🎸
Awesome Reaction Brother ! 💯
Floyd requires ear goggles for the journey 🤯
You won't hear too many songs witha time signature like this! 7beats to a bar.
Saw them back in the early 90's in an outdoor stadium at night. Best concert I've ever seen.😁♥️🤘👍
Fun fact: this song is in Jazz time (7/8 I think). It switches to standard rock time (4/4) for the solo because David could only do a solo in that time signature. ❤️ his guitar solos!
It's not "jazz time", but an "odd" time signature, 7/4. One Two and Three Four Five Six Se-ven. Odd signatures are those not divisible by 2 (marches), 3 (waltz/swing), or 4 (90-95% of western music, incl. jazz). The solo does, as you say, switch to common time, 4/4.
"Mother" is a lot wilder with the time signature shakeups. It's mostly in 4/4, but occasionally drops an 1/8 note or three, leaving a bar of 7/8 or 5/8, or extending a bar to 9/8. The chorus starts in 4/4 but switches to 6/8. Nick Mason had a hard time with learning these changes in the recording session, so they brought in famed session drummer Jeff Porcaro.
"Mother do you think they'll drop the" is a bar of 5/8 and then it goes to 4/4 with "bomb" for a few bars. Then back to 5/8 for "Mother do you think they'll like this" and then to 4/4 on "song". "Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls is all in 4/4 until "Mother should I try to build the wall" is 6/8 for the first 8th note of "wall" and then goes to 4/4 again. Repeat this pattern and then the chorus starts.
The two lady back vocals
The singer(s) on The Wall are Roger Waters and David Gilmour
Headphones are on backwards! Love Bro! The Fam is getting you into some fine @$$ Jams!
It was a saxophone. I love this song. Much respect.
Great true lyrics, awesome music. Guitar and sax solo just flow
I found a pile of 8 tracks dumped in the middle of the desert when i was a kid. I was intrigued, but i didn't have a player
They belong in the middle of the desert. HATED 8-tracks. Your favorite song would always get interrupted when it switched tracks.
Great reaction. Pink Floyd in the car awesome. Pink Floyd all alone in the basement with headphones🤯🤯🤯🤯 unbelievable. Just listen to the album alone not reacting with headphones on. Life-changing.😀👍❤️✌️🌼 edit to say. It’s a saxophone. Roger Waters on vocals
Happy 420
I love Pink Floyd❤❤ You are amazing😁😁 I also enjoy watching Jojo❤❤
David Gilmour the guitarist sang this Van. Great reaction and song. Please more Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd is definitely a vibe- and much more easily appreciated when using headphones. I always recommend Money, then Shine on you Crazy Diamond and then Dogs. After that there are another 50 amazing songs
Saxophone player for Pink Floyd is Dick Perry.
He wears 2 saxophones. A tenor and a baritone & switches them out during the song.
Comfortably Numb “Pulse Live”.
This song is exactly why they sold more albums than anybody!
Thanks for the shout out Van! Made my day. 😊
The whole album is a ride
Pink floyd was named after two blues artists.. Pink Anderson and Floyd Council
pink floyd are a british national treasure . legends
The Commodores sang Easy like Sunday morning. It's worth a reaction.
Good ol' Lionel Richie. One of the smoothest voices in music.
Damn man, I took a little hiatus from youtube and came back to see that you blew up from the few hundred subs when I hit that thang, Jack! I'm happy to see the silver play button and a ton more charisma in front of the camera!
Congratulations bro!
Thanks Van! Bein' real like always. Pink Floyd is never a disappointment. Love to see you enjoy it. Love 💜 to the entire LFR family!
Always hits different with the headphones on Pink Floyd one of my favorite bands ever right next to Zepplin
"who play that bass??"
Roger, the one and only. The mastermind of all the song.
Really enjoying your videos thank you for making them. I would love to see your reactions to more Pink Floyd with the headphones on. And maybe the whole album cuz you know Time runs into the Great gig in the sky. Thank you miss more for helping to keep Pink Floyd alive
Enjoyed seeing this at years ago in a Laser Floyd production at the Denver Planetarium
John Coltrane's album titled "Giant Steps" has a cover version of "My Favorite Things" which is a beautiful example of what jazz can do when reinterpreting a familiar song. It soars and creates magic.
Pink Floyd name is based after 2 African-American blues singer - Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Motown singers are the background singers you here on Dark Side of the Moon. They wanted to blend American soul with British melancholy.
There is something so different about them. There's not a song you won't like. Great reaction
Pulse live 👍
Sax... and you're grooving exactly like my parents probably did in the 70s!! 😂😂
And that Miles Davis and Coltrane album is really fire... you have good fans!!!
Definitely have to listen to Floyd with headphones! Great reaction video
There is a guitar player, or should I say was since he passed away quite a while ago, who isn't well known in the United States who primarily played Blues guitar. His name is Rory Gallagher and he is fantastic. I haven't seen any reactors listen to him. I recommend the song Calling Card from the album of the same name. The song not only has great guitar but it has some great bass, piano and drums as well. There are many more songs by Rory Gallagher worth listening to but I think you will really like this one.
From the same album, Dark side of the moon.. try, "The Great Gig in the Sky". If you want real soul from a UK band.....
Clare Torry sings up a storm, that you will never forget, and yet not a single word is sung.
There bands that actually sound better while driving (Van Halen, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, although some Sabbath is mind blowing through headphones) and there are bands that demand to be listed to through headphones (Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Radiohead, Supertramp).
Lots of good trips listening to this.
Oh Van you are too cool and funny. Who doesn't love a good chair dance eh 🥰💃
Absolutely check out more Pink Floyd.
It’s Friday night. I’m by myself. And I am laughing my ass off listening to Van with his funny antics 😆 “ tell me. Tell me. I’m not playing with you.“ 😂
In 1965, there was a group of four black brothers and a white drummer called "The Chambers Brothers" that were insanely popular with several hits. Might I recommend "The Time Has Come Today". Do the LONG version, 11 minutes of absolute genius! It has been rumored that they were the ones to first perform "Sympathy For The Devil", it's on their Live album, released in 1965, three years before The Stones did it.
ALL Pink Floyd music is much better through a pair of good headphones. You really don't want to miss anything.
