    I'd always wondered how Gilmour could make these gutsy (sometimes funky) blues
    and Pentatonic licks, sound so exotic.

    Rick Wrights 1977 solo album is pretty good, I'm sure you can find some jazz chords on that album to make a lesson on. David Gilmours 1978 solo album also you can make a lesson on the chords and licks from to learn from.

    Well done Dave!! I have been in a 43 year love affair with Floyd. I have never gotten tired of them. Shine on is a masterpiece. Then I go listen to Syd's solo albums and love those a ton! Gilmour made all that stuff possible! Wright played on Syd's stuff too. I dont know what it is about them but I have loved them from when i first heard Animals at the age of 14. Then I went back and heard Meddle... oh man was I blown away!! And so on and on and on.

    When you were talking about Richard and how the band wouldn't have been the same without him, it's the same with David and Roger. And I said the same thing to a buddy of mine about The Doors... it was the same way... every one of them provided something that made that band so special too. Without these guys managing to get together and work together, music wouldn;t be the same. Great stuff.

    When I was a kid I remember hearing the _Animals_ album for the first time, and that cemented my desire to become a musician. I wanted to be a part of something greater than one artist could do alone. Funny now after knowing how much strife there was in the band at the time they recorded _Animals._ I think that all the strife in the band actually came through on the recordings and ironically is part of what made that album so raw and real, full of multi-faceted emotion.

    Thanks as always for another awesome lesson. Been a huge fan of Floyd since my mid teens around 15- 16. We pretty much have basically same taste in music. I also grew up on Van Halen, Zep, Metallica. Etc. I love the way you break down the root notes and the why of things work. I learned from the seat of my pants and a basic chord chart. The rest was ear power and listening to records and taking out songs best as I could. So this helps me out a lot. One thing that drove me nuts Is why I could never seem for the life of me take out certain Sabbath and Van Halen songs! Then in my later years I realized that both bands drop down. Specially Van Halen that pretty much lives in half step down world. Lmao. Thanks again for all your videos bro. I wish I was half as good as you are! Your absolutely gifted. I wish I had the patience that you do. Laterz🤘😊🤘

Your video has inspired me to learn them better.

    Yeah great. My favourite band,my first big concert. Pink Floyd was part of my family's every day life, so many feelings and memories are attached to that music. And of course David G infuenced my playing a lot.
    Even the disturbing fact that Tavistock Institude had its fingers in the social engineering process by forming and promoting many of the musical giants from all decades my emotional connecting to Floyd will never be destroyed.
    Thanks David B😀greetings from Germany.

    • @aylbdrmadison1051

      Yea, love Pink Floyd too. But hey, what's this whole Tavistock thing about? This is the first I've ever heard of it. I'll have a read.. Yeeea, after reading a bit from multiple articles, it was easy to see they were obviously nothing more than conspiracy hypotheses being *used just to promote anti- semitism.* But if you have a link to something that is actually serious and based on facts, not the delusion of racism, I'd be interested to read it.

  • @MarkH457
    @MarkH457 4 роки тому +2

    Great vid, as always. Just a couple of tidbits, and a piece of trivia that most are probably not aware of. First, Hey You was recorded with a "Nashville" strung/tuned guitar, although I believe live he played it in standard, basically the same way you're playing it. Second, that's not Gilmour playing the classical guitar on Is There Anybody Out There, a classical guitarist was brought in to record the part as Dave was getting frustrated with it, he played it live, of course, but with a leather pick. And, as far as I know, that's the only guitar track on a Pink Floyd album that wasnt performed by Gilmour, aside from the earlier tracks by Syd Barrett.

    • @aylbdrmadison1051
      @aylbdrmadison1051 4 роки тому +3

      Those are some interesting tidbits for sure. Especially about the classical guitarist and that being the only guitar tracks Dave didn't play. It really shows that the music came first, even though what he did was probably excellent, he just had to make it just right, even if that meant someone else had to do it.

    • @kbelbeisi

      Roger played rhythm guitar on two songs on the wall, pigs and sheep. David played bass on those songs. Roger also played lots of acoustic guitars on PF albums.

      @MarkH457 4 роки тому

      Sorry, but do you have a link or any proof of that? I've followed Floyd since the 70s and I've never heard that before. And honestly Roger is a horrible guitarist that struggles with basic open cowboy chords, and the acoustic tracks in Dogs aren't exactly easy to play. Also Dogs and Sheep are on Animals, not The Wall

    • @aylbdrmadison1051
      @aylbdrmadison1051 4 роки тому +3

      That was the album that cemented my desire to become a musician. I honestly think the strife between them at that time, but it not yet causing them to think they'd be better off apart, allowed them to be even more emotive than normal. Just an assumption ofc, maybe one or more already were thinking that. But for me that magic they had was greatly diminished by the time they did The Wall. That was a great album too, full of feeling and depth.
      But Animals was mystical, something many bands like Led Zeppelin, Yes, Rush, Genesis, and others all had in the 70's, but not one of them had anymore by 1980.
      Maybe it's just me though. I still love so much that came after and think today's youngsters are making incredible music (I'm really blown away by it all, in a good way), but the magic and wonder seems to be mostly gone. I rarely find snippets of it like in Haken's _The Cockroach King,_ where they find something caught between Yes and Zappa, and touch of The Muppets. Or in some of the music by The Main Squeeze, who do the best covers I've ever heard in my life btw. All Floyd fans should definitely check out The Main Squeeze imo.
      Here's their cover of Have a Cigar. They do justice to the original very well, while still doing it in their own way.
