Dobbiamo riconoscere l'enorme talento, intelligenza, carattere e determinazione nel creare un sound sofisticato, psichedelico che nessuna band, dagli anni ' 50 ad ora, sia mai riuscita. Ed è per questo che sono UNICI nel panorama musicale mondiale. Tale da essere considerati: PATRIMONIO DELL' UMANITÀ.
Syd Barrett was rubbish! Roger Waters and Gilmour are the geniuses in the group! They would never have produced albums the calibre of DSOTM and The Wall with Barrett at the helm, it would have been more of the same dotty nonsense!
@@scottward6974 I disagree. Rog and Dave are musical geniuses no doubt, and I too prefer the “golden era” stuff. But Syd was absolutely instrumental in laying the groundwork for what was to come. He was incredibly talented in his own right, and as a result early Floyd sounds like nothing else. It truly is special, wonderful music and can be appreciated completely separately from their later work. I disagree that they would have never changed too. Floyd were never a band to stagnate, even in their earlier years, and Roger is such a strong personality that he would have certainly steered the group in a more progressive direction regardless. Point is, I love Syd and the music he made with the band. Floyd is my all-time favorite, and I can truly appreciate everything they released (except maybe some of amlor lol)
Syd was with his sister at this point in 68, then with mum. Sad yes the fools he was with as a younger lad admired him but didn't think of his mental health dropping him all that LSD
I'm thrilled to see this beautiful gem Syds recent departure David trying to learn his pieces Roger taking lead along with Richard & Nick so young to pull on forward THANK GOD FOR ALL 5
Listen to the Philadelphia 1970 live version of Interstellar Overdrive and get back to me! Heavier than any of Syd's recordings. Even with Syd, live versions rarely sounded like the studio version, that was the point!
My impression was that Sid didn't want the fame. The others did and went for it. I guess sids deterioration reflected this state of affairs and his ultimate ousting was a win-win for both sides, in a sad way. As you note, they certainly got the gigs they wanted after he left. Who knows
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I didn't know they were in Rome so early, I thought their first time (in my hometown :) was with Michelangelo Antonioni for Zabriskie Point.
It seems quite primitive to listen now but back in the late 60s watching people's faces melt and not knowing what/ where/ or why was an all engrossing thing and this lot supplied the backing track to many of my trips.i still get that slightly soapy taste in my mouth listening to this.nice vid.cheers.
Andrew Drummond Absolutely, his ideas were absolutely unique, much more than Gilmour and Waters, talking about the band sound! Wright for me is the heart of Floyd ! Listen to this, he mix his classical influence with jazz and blues
Wow, thank you Mason for this little gem... I'm from Rome, the Palasport was the main venue for concerts all along the seventies, I was only ten at the time but a few years later, same place, my first was Jethro Tull with Gentle Giant as opening band... not bad, huh? Anderson was pissed because people keep on call back the Giant for an encore... Anyway I really don't get the nasty comments about Gilmour not being Syd... With all the love and respect for Barrett, I think Gilmour did his part then and afterwards, clearly they don't know much about PF history or they are just trolling
Corrado Demurtas , I couldn’t have said it better myself! David was a true friend to Syd and tried everything he could think of to complete (produce) Syd’s final album, but to no avail. He made sure royalties were paid and delivered until Syd’d death.
Hai ragione: chi sparla di Gilmour non sa di cosa parla. Syd è stato geniale e ha dato la spinta, l'impronta, al gruppo ma chi continua a mettersi in bocca il nome di Syd vuol dire che non conosce il lavoro dei Pink Floyd. Non sappiamo cosa avrebbero fatto e dove sarebbero arrivati i Pink con Syd, può anche essere che la loro vena si sarebbe comunque estinta finita la spinta della psichedelia di cui Syd è stato un grandissimo interprete e questo, forse, poteva essere il suo punto debole. Non lo sappiamo e non lo sapremo mai. Sappiamo invece cosa hanno fatto questi 4 dopo Syd ed è la storia dei Pink Floyd. A meno di non voler credere che l' unico lavoro degno di questo gruppo sia solo il primo disco 😅, l'unico quasi interamente firmato da Syd. Già nel secondo Syd ha firmato solo una traccia.... Probabilmnete molti di quelli che si riempiono la bocca di Syd se sentissero davvero il primo album dei Pink Floyd probabilmente spegnerebbero l'ampli a metà disco.. 😉
Fábio Henrique i think an example is the distorted bass lines in "think for yourself " from the rubber soul album. I think the bass there is the rickenbacker
Simplemente increíble estos si son músicos no las chingaderas de ahora pink floyd con todas las carencias tecnologícas hizo maravillas que bárbaros mi admiración y respeto para esta gran banda
When you've got a rhythm section like the Waters/Mason gestalt entity, you can pretty much do whatever you like on top of that and it'll hold together.
Thank you for posting this! I have this on a bootleg called "Reversion or Revalorization," but the audio quality is very poor. I've been looking for a high-quality version of this for a long time so thank you very much!
Aditya Patnaik oh goodness hoping this could be some wherethat madhenuis played Am enjoying interstellar overdrive as background score in anthony stern san francisco doc What sounds
I have such good ears that when I listen to this on my vintage Sennheiser headphones through my all tube console I can tell each time Roger adjusts those volume and tone knobs.
Someone needs to tell the editor of this video that they accidentally left in eight seconds of David Gilmore. Seems a shame after going to such obvious lengths to cut him out.
@@bluecollar825 No, the real answer is probably that at this time Dave was very new to the band and had a much more akward stage presence. Look up other 1968 TV recordings, Dave dances around meekly, isn't sure where to look and plays with no pizzaz. Syd's departure was tragic, but I hate this modern mythology that they were trying to silence him or something. You know why you can't hear any vocals in those three '67 live recordings? It's not bad micing, in fact you can hear Roger's voice just fine. Syd would just mumble everything, barely play, and sit around in another world. Look up the few Syd solo live bootlegs, on the third of which, he gets up and leaves his set mid song! He was a genious, but very much a fallen star. It's incredible how much the Floyd were able to rebuild wthout him, going on to write classics like Meddle, Darkside, THE WALL, and basically every other album they wrote.
Gilmore at first wouldn't stand out on stage, but played behind the speakers. He was there because Syd didn't show up. It was the beginning of the end.
Saw then in '73 in Waterbury, CT, pretty much unknow in the States, but I heard them on a University, FM, and knew I had to see them. In '76 took a year of music theory and bought a left handed Strat because of Gilmore's playing. I still play.
Questo concerto dei Floyd a Roma fu, per quelli che c'erano, a tratti surreale...infatti come si nota dal video si esibirono a luci accese senza l'ausilio dei loro effetti psichedelici in quanto quel giorno a Roma ci fu un grossissimo problema alla rete elettrica che nessuno sul momento potè ripristinare...i Floyd furono costretti ad esibirsi senza alcun effetto ne di luci ne di niente. A questo live era presente Carlo Verdone che raccontò che nel pubblico i ragazzi tra la folla si fumavano le canne "di nascosto" utilizzando i sacchetti di cartone per non farsi sgamare in quanto anche il pubblico era "illuminato" dalle luci del palazzetto :)
grazie per avercelo fatto notare. però non è male vedere suionare i musicisti invece di essere lisergizzati da luci psichedeliche o altri effetti ipnotici
Mágicos grandes músicos y sin la tecnología de ahora eran adelantados a su época genios del arte de la musica ya no habrán jamas músicos como ellos la musica dejo de existir a principios de los 90
Definitely agree, and the comparison to jazz is a valid one. The breakdown, then rebuilding of the music -- all gradually -- is inspired by jazz. Other groups -- such as Procul Harem, the Moody Blues, and Deep Purple Mark I -- were all very classically inspired.
0:40 Roger feigning genuis with that technical knob twiddling that only a tortured artist would understand. I've owned that same model, toured the world with it, and this is all just for show kids.
It's amazing to think that both Roger Waters and Nick mason only took up their instruments only three years before this was filmed extremely rare to be playing at this level after three years
y pensar a en esos años no existía la tecnología q ahora hay y como la creación de estos músicos fluía Pink Floyd musicos virtuosos grande Waters , Wright , Masón ,Barret geniales
Strange how an entire generation of young people would want to buy into this music. I mean, this is not Floyd for beginners stuff. It's far out. But I loved it.
I thought the same thing. Especially after he got them to 10, yet still kept trying to turn them up! Actually more of an OCD kinda thing, as someone pointed out. Or a nervous tic, almost.
Hacia la mitad del tema me ha recordado, en algun sonido y estructura, a In a gadda da vida, de Iron Buterfly. PF la publicaron en el 67 y IB en el 68 así que quiero creer que el temazo de IB estuvo inspirado en estos genios.
well, this is an improvisation very much in Crimson's vein... well, the kind of improvs King Crimson did in the 73/74 period. Nothing to do with showing off skills, but creativity... strange melodies, atonal noises, odd signature times and so on...

I think I’ve seen a couple live renditions of Interstellar Overdrive on here, but I can’t say it’s played the same way each time. More than likely what they were going for I assume.
The worst part of 60's vids, were the videographers who would ruin the video with stupid psychedelic effects, instead of just focusing on the artistic styles of the musician.
MrBobberino01 I feel the same way!! It was cool back then but I'd love to see like a multicam straight shot of them playing!! But Pink Floyd was a always band known for the sights. They didn't want people to look at them.
I'm thinking how the aesthetics are done amazing, nice colours and tones etc but they're inhibiting the view of the band so we can't judge what they are thinking and interracting with eachother.
MrBobberino01: That was how it was. Just be glad that it was filmed in the first place! As for the artistic styles of the musicians, what would they be then? Or maybe you don't think they're winging it??
I get it. Not everyone will... One time, after a Grateful Dead concert in the late 80s, I wandered around & around the entire venue parking lot looking for my car, and ultimately had to wait until almost every had left to find it. And, yes, my state of mind was somewhat 'altered'.
I recently got stoned and decided to nip out to the shop, after having done the shopping i couldn't find my car and after about 5 minutes i realised i walked there...
I was born in 1968.... Pink Floyd is my all time ever favorite band.
I was born in 1950 and ditto! My favorite also. You obvious have great musical taste!😊

David is an extremely extraordinary musician. Roger is a creator, an excellent composer. Syd is a genious.
The only one that could sing and play great was/is David Gilmour.Without him Pink Floyd would have been over when Syd left or got fired.

Underrated yes. Not too sure about 70%.

Yes the chord progression in Us and Them was Wright's creation one of the most moving chord movements I have heard at least to my ear.
What I find odd, is after all the work he did for many albums - he's like never credited at the same rate as the rest of the band.

Stuart Duncan. I met the Floyd in 1968, and Nick Mason told me what they were doing was Art. He was very serious about it.
I'm too stoned to have an opinion.
The timing of Rogers high pitched harmonics is genius. It’s so simple but it sounds like little drops of water.

I'm thinking how the aesthetics are done amazing, nice colours and tones etc but they're inhibiting the view of the band so we can't judge what they are thinking and interracting with eachother.
MrBobberino01: That was how it was. Just be glad that it was filmed in the first place! As for the artistic styles of the musicians, what would they be then? Or maybe you don't think they're winging it??
Holy Moly - Interesting Galore
Richard Wright was an Amazing underrated keyboardist. I miss him and Roger "Syd" Barrett. After all,this was Syd's song...
MAGNIFICOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I can't find where I parked my car.
???
I get it. Not everyone will... One time, after a Grateful Dead concert in the late 80s, I wandered around & around the entire venue parking lot looking for my car, and ultimately had to wait until almost every had left to find it. And, yes, my state of mind was somewhat 'altered'.
Oh yeah now I remember...the car was in the shop so I took the starship
I recently got stoned and decided to nip out to the shop, after having done the shopping i couldn't find my car and after about 5 minutes i realised i walked there...
I get it....you mean your stoned! Lol!
still love it!!
That show was psychedelic but RAW. Compare that performance with the band playing Animals live in 1978. Difference is day and night.
jyd59 Well they had to learn how to actually play sooner or later
@@classygary yeah, its not like piper is one of their best albums
I wish I was there , badass!!!
