Pink Floyd "Echoes (Part 1) live at Pompeii 1972
Listen for the origin of "The Phantom of the Opera" its where Sir Andrew Loyd Webber pinched the riff from! 😂
Atom hart mother by Pink Floyd
A couple of corrections, Clare Torry only performed The Great Gig In The Sky and a lot of their songs have references to founding member Syd Barret not 'Steve'. Floyd truly are one of the greatest bands of all time and have been a personal favorite of mine for close to fifty years and counting.
If you haven't done so already I would love see your reaction to Subdivisions by Rush
ELP Take A Pebble BTW I am glad you Brain Damage with Eclipse attached.
These 2songs should always be played together
Amen, brother! I’ll second that!
Uhhh…..the whole album should be played beginning to end.
@@donrichter3523 of course! I just stated with these two because that is what she listened to
This is a concept album. It really needs to be listened to in it's entirety to get the full emotional and intellectual impact of this masterpiece.
It always annoyed me when a rock station would play Brain Damage, then cut it off without playing Eclipse.
It truly is the best rock album ever recorded and it’s not even close. 900+ weeks on Billboard top 200.
I have a bit of a debate with myself about this, I also love Animals and the Wall. I guess it depends on how Im feeling :D
Props for acknowledging Nick Mason's Drumming so underrated
Well said & couldn't agree more 👏
YES .....one of the BEST !
Is there any other way???🌕🌔🌓🌒🌑🙌
And what she said about spacing out the notes is so true. He is no bombast like Neal Peart, Bill Bruford, or Carl Palmer, but he did such a good job of doing what the song needed. But that's true of Rick, Roger and especially David - lots of instrumentalist played more notes and did flashier stuff, but they wove together a texture in their songs that is hard to recreate. They could be thematically expansive while still being in many ways minimalist.
Exactly, the guy was a genius on the drums and we sometimes forget that...
The very last song fades out with the heartbeat which is how the album begins with a heartbeat so it's actually a perfect loop!!
The transition from brain damage to eclipse is just epic ❤❤❤
That is not Clare Torry on backing vocals in this song. There were 4 vocalists: Doris Troy, Lesley Duncan, Liza Strike and Barry St John.
This song is basically about founding member, Syd Barrett who did suffer from mental illness. The lines, When the band you're in starts playing different tunes" is in reference to live shows where Syd was playing a completely different song than the rest of the band.
The heartbeat you here is a theme throughout the entire album. The album signifies, time, death, greed, mental illness and conflict.
None of the backing vocalists received any credit on the album.
Clare was paid 30 Pounds for her performance. In 2004 she sued and it was settled out of court in 2005 with an unspecified amount and starting in 2005, releases gives her credit for her composition.
Actually the backing vocals in the whole album, except the solo in the Great gig in the Sky, which is sung by Claire Torry, are by Lesley Duncan and the wailing part by the amazing Doris Troy.
Clare Torry is the spelling
...respect ☮️
As long as theres a 15 year old kid playing music in his mom's basement he'll always think he's the first one to discover this album.
Hey I was 12. And didn't have a basement. But I was the first one, in 1986, to discover this album!
@@mikewatts867 LOL.
@@mikewatts867 Nah mate. I was the first one to truly listen to it in 1985. I told a friend about it and the rest is history. You're welcome, everybody!
Hey kids, do not fight about who and when listened to this album first. The day it was hitting the stores in London on the first of March 1973 I got my vinyl and listened to it. The world was not created on anybodies day when they were born. It just shows how young and dumb some of you are!
The heartbeat that ends the album is the same one that starts it. Everything about this album is so sublime...every bit of it is so well thought out and immaculately performed.
'And everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon' never fails to give me goosebumps
'There is no dark side of the moon, really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.' 🌚
I've always thought of that a bit differently. The sun is the light of reason, which keeps everything in order: everything is in tune. The moon (= Luna --> lunacy/lunatic) brings madness and disorder . . . and it eclipses the sun. For me, it stands as the culminating image of the entire album: reason gives way to madness, life gives way to death . . . and somehow it's all groovy.
Dark Side of the Moon is one of my all time favorite albums.
Me too vinyl 8 track cassette and c.d every song excellent
Best album ever produced, no other album has ever touched a generation like this one.
This whole album is a trip, a journey, an experience. It's simply a masterpiece.
Back in 1984, the night before I left for Marine Corps boot camp, my father was tears in his eyes gave me a six pack of Yuengling beer. I put on my headphones and listened to dark side of the Moon. I drank the beer and realized that my dad was scared, he fought in Korea.
Thank you, and your father before you, for your service to our country, sir.
(Also, your father has good taste in beer.)
Yeah these two songs are always played together and usually listed as Brain Damage/Eclipse. Such epic music and a great end to one of the greatest albums of all time.
One of the best albums ever created😢
Simple correction.....The best album ever created.
@@roddiener1235 So glad you added that ‘simple correction’.
Literally woke up to this song playing on the radio this morning. It was 51 years ago today that DSOTM came out and it is just as moving and relatable today. The entire album is timeless.
So many generations, This was their introduction to the introspective lyric
' if the band you're in start playing different tunes, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon' references Syd. He left in 1968 due to excessive LSD use. If you listen to Barrett-era PF, they are a bit different to the 70's era but you can tell the direction they're heading in with tracks like 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun'
Both this, and Shine on you Crazy Diamond were played at my father’s funeral as he ended up suffering from acute alzheimers. It definitely helped to lighten the mood
“… they’re such a good band … “. The understatement of ALL time
Well said my friend 👊
Alan parson is also responsible for much of the success of this extraordinary project! Dark side of the moon😎
I like allen persons a lot too
lol Just ask Alan, he'll tell you! He did play a role, but he was a recording engineer. I like his music, I own just about all of his albums. But outside of a couple of noted contributions, I really can't believe anybody was paying close attention to what a button-monkey thought as DSOTM was being created. Sorry, Alan.
On the LP of this album (you know, vinyl..like the olden days) the B-side groove went from spiral to a circle, which prevented the needle from reaching the trip point for the lift/retract. The heartbeat you hear at the end of Eclipse is recorded on the circle portion. So, if you let the B-side play, it will play that heartbeat indefinitely 😊
you know, for some of us, it is amazing to watch you repeat what we did, with headphones, in the dark, in a college dorm room. That first listen to Floyd, all the way through, is an experience we cannot repeat. But we CAN watch you....
thinking back to listening to this on my headphones back in '73 the same year I graduated High School, and lots of people were HIGH!
50 years ago Pink Floyd were already 200 years ahead of everybody!
They always opened their concerts around this album with that same sustained heartbeat. Really set the mood for the show.
Eclipse should be the ending credits to our " lives" 💯🔥
The two songs have always been meant to be played together, back to back.
Back in the id 70's, I hung out with metal heads, into Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith and we all loved Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon," was the ultimate must-have album in any collection. Oh ya, back then, we all had tons of albums and nice stereos with huge speakers and a super nice turntable! I miss those days! Pink Floyd's best albums are "Dark Side of the Moon," "Wish You Were Here," "Animals," "The Wall." That's my list! Ciao and rock on mija!
The entire album flows from beginning to end and should be listened to in its entirety'
It's all dark. Gerry O'Driscoll, the doorman at Abbey Road, gets the last word.
That last spoken line is just so profound. There *is* no dark side of the moon, it doesn't generate its own light so it is all dark as such, but it shines by reflecting sunlight. The sunlit side rotates as the moon orbits the earth hence the phases, so therefore the side in darkness moves too. This all adds up to the thought that if you're in darkness, don't despair, the light *will* come again - you just have to hold on and be there to be able to see it.
The voice was Gerry O'Driscoll. He was the doorman at Abbey Road Studios
This album is (like a lot of prog rock) not really about discretely separated songs; they're meant to be listened to in sequence, and one side of the album after the other. Hence the smooth transitions.
I really liked it when i was on a Marillion concert and Fish said "and now our last song" .. everyone was shocked because we thaught thats maybe a short concert, and then he said "its called "Missplaced Childhood"" so that was their whole actual album where in the end every song directly goes into the next without pauses.
That’s one of the annoying things about listening digitally. Sometimes there’s a pause from song to song. This was also a problem with 8-tracks. It broke songs up in weird ways sometimes, even to the point the order of songs was different on 8-tracks.
@@beldin2987 I love that album.
This album never ceases to interest me and have been listening to it since it first came out . ALWAYS listen start to finish in order….its the experience taken as whole.
Yes, Brain Damage and Eclipse is the culmination of Syd Barrett losing his mind to drug use.
DSOTM is so good at telling the rise of the band and Syd's fall because of his addiction.
As others have said, it's an album best listened to in its entirety because of the way it paints the story.
Not trying to be too critical, but neither song is about Syd, although Brain Damage certainly alludes to his psychological struggles (btw, Syd didn't "lose his mind to drug use." His heavy use of LSD certainly was a factor in his demise, but he also had undiagnosed schizophrenia which was exacerbated by immense pressure from their record company to keep cranking out hits, which Syd had no interest in.)
Eclipse has absolutely nothing to do with Syd, it was Roger's brilliant summation of ones journey through life...freakin' brilliant.
@@z-man2343 Thanks for the info. Hadn't had all my coffee yet.
Let’s not forget that it wasn’t only addiction that sidelined Syd Barrett - it was a schizophrenic disorder exacerbated by the drug use that caused him to lose his mind.
@@z-man2343Seeing the actual man who wrote this and his band in concert and them playing this was just,emotionally something else.
You don't get addicted to LSD@@CatherinePearl100
Hell Yeah!!!!!!! The Powerfull Pink Floyd!!!!!! Greatest Rock Band!!!!!!!!! Takes me way Back!!!!!!!! Great Memories!!!!!!! I'm 70, now Still Rock n Roll!!!!!!!! Get a Great Natural!!! High now , Awesome!!!! Rock n Roll!!!!!
When you get to see Brain Damage/Eclipse live during the Eclipse part of the song their well known video screen is slowly becoming an Eclipse 💗
don't just "read" the lyrics like your reading a book ... you have to "FEEL" the lyrics !!
She's used to and trained to read librettos (opera lyrics). One assumes the music drives them home.
@@anahatatutu not good enough
Dark Side of the Moon is my all time favorite album. I have always said that this is the closest man has ever come to perfection. It should only ever be listened to in sequence and it’s entirely.
Lyrics make the head swim, but you embrace the current
Then the music hits
The whole album is a magnificent opus. I am always amazed at how such young people can have insights into things that we normally learn as we age. PF will be remembered for ever. My personal opinion is that a lot of their songs were written with Sid Barrett in mind. I think they really missed him.
At 4:35 "You raise the blade, you make the change You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane" is about a [now discredited] form of neurosurgical treatment for psychiatric or neurological disorders (e.g. epilepsy, depression) that involves severing connections in the brain's prefrontal cortex.
Dark Side of the Moon really needs to be listened to from start to finish. I’d really to hear your reaction to Great Gig in the Sky.
That is not Claire Tory backing in Brain Damage/Eclipse. She sang on Great Gig in the Sky only.
I remember when DSOTM album was released and the first time I heard it. I was totally floored! It took me into a new direction and mindset in the way I played.
Great to see Roger's lyrics being appreciated.
This song, to me, reflects the mind of a soldier from WW2. First verse: during war. Second verse: immediately following the war. Third verse: Reflection and recognition of how now he realizes why his mind is what it has become. 😢
If you read up about Roger Waters, he based some of the lyrics on his father who fought and died in Italy in 1943….
I have quite literally sat in the woods around the beach listening to this whole album with a buzz
The breakdown into Eclipse gets me every time.
Atom Heart Mother[1970] & Echoes[1971]~Shall REALLY Blow Ur Bloody Mind Indeed...
The entire album is one seamless masterpiece.
It is very cool how the album starts with a heartbeat, and ends with a heartbeat!
These songs are the culmination of an entire album.
I just got the 50th Anniversary box set for Christmas. This is a must have for anyone's collection.
Man! That lunatic laugh always gives a chill in my bones ! I was almost going insane by listening to this song everyday (when I was in my sophomore days around early 90s) as I could visualize the death news coming in newspapers and everyday the paperboy bringing more ! Another PF song was Gunner's Dream !
MANY songs end/begin at the same time
My 2 favorite Pink Floyd songs of all time.
All Pink Floyd albums should be played front to back!
With headphones in dark room.
I watched a laser light show to this album in 1990 at the Griffith Park observatory and it was freaking fantastic.
This influenced my grey skull full of mush and helped me cope with and process my internal pain when I got out on my own. Then I saw them live. Life changing music.
This album was 25 years ahead of its time. It has to be one of the top 10 most influential albums of all rock era IMHO.
Imagine growing up with this music
I saw this concert back in 1973, in Seattle, when I was 16. If was a phenomenal experience.
Thanks girl. I have listened to this a few thousand times. Always moved by it.😊
Classic album 👏
Thank you Mike!!!!
When my daughters were little, they would laugh every time the lunatic laughed on Brain Damage. That was 35 years ago.
I was 10 when i first heard this album, this was my favourite track😁
Great reaction video - thank you!
DSOTM is the greatest album of all time, and as others have said, it would be amazing to listen to and/or do a live stream of the entire album. FYI - Clare Torry sang on the Great Gig In The Sky song, but was not one of the backup singers for the other songs.
She was a 'gunslinger'. They brought her in for one song, she KILLED it, and rode off into the sunset.
The song change is right where it switches from 4/4 to 3/4 🙂
The whole album is a tribute (and a bit of a Requiem) to Syd Barret, the founding guitarist of Pink Floyd, whose mental/emotional issues led to the band replacing him with David Gilmour - "and when the band you're in starts playing different tunes ... I'll see you on the dark side of the moon." ... but even serious mental illness is recognized as a spectrum" "There is no dark side of the moon really - matter of fact, it's *all* dark" - we *all* have struggles, and absolute sanity is unrealized ...
The songs on the album can be associated with different parts of the human experience. Money (obvious); Us & Them = war, poverty; Time; Breathe=home, family; Brain damage=madness; Great Gig in the Sky=death; etc.
Hi from Northern California.. you should check out the live from Pulse of this💥💥🔥🔥❤️✌🏼
Doris Troy, Leslie Duncan, Liza Strike and Barry St. John. were the back up singers ON THE WHOLE ALBUM... claire tory ''sang'' THE GREAT GIG IN THE SKY (THANK GOD FOR DAVID GILMOUR)
The hidden-from-our-POV side of the moon
It’s a brilliant way to finish off this Mastr piece.
I love PInK !!!!
It occurred to me decades after I first heard it (aged 15 as it was released) that Dark side has an essay structure of Introduction, Main Body and Conclusion, or put plainly:
Say what you're going to say/ Say it/ Then say you've Said it.
Breathe is the introduction:
"Long you live and high you fly Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry And all you touch and all you see Is all your life will ever be"
The album follows the track of a life from dreams and ambition, through success to reflection and final extinction.
'Eclipse' is the conclusion, the book end to the album and it exhaustively echoes the theme established in Breathe:
"...And all that is now And all that is gone And all that's to come..." Pretty much all of it is "All."
I believe Walters mused once that the album was a little immature (possibly he said undergraduate), but I've found that the album resonated with me in different ways and in different places as I have aged and as such it is indeed a classic and timeless piece of work.
This song is the poster child of the 70's.
The album forms a complete loop.
Thank you so much for reviewing this! My favorite “rock” band and certainly one of my all time favorite albums!
I have a humble request for you to review/listen to the video by Maria Coman , “The Most Beautiful Love Hymn.”
Spasibo! 🙏🏻
I have to hear them everyday. Have to.
Fun fact, the laugh you hear in this song is made by Pete Watts, one of the Sound Engineers for Pink Floyd. But did you know Pete Watts has a very famous daughter? The blonde actress in The Ring (2002) and The Ring Two (2005), Naomi Watts.
Saw this whole album live at Pulse in El Paso.
"You raise the blade ... and make the change ... ." Lobotomy anybody?
It's a concept album. You need to listen to the entire album in one sitting.
Please check out the docu on Pink Floyd. Sid Barrett ( early member) was institutionalized with a mental disorder.
I personally think this album was a catharsis for everyone in the band. They’d been on tour and Sid started singing or playing a different song😱. The writing reflects emotional turmoil of all kinds in my opinion. ❤😊
Brain Damage & Eclipse flow together as the finale of Dark Side of the Moon. It's 2 songs only in name.
Never been a fan of Pink Floyd but I do love these 2 songs👍🏼
My favourite part of The Dark Side of The Moon ❤
It’s the most perfect album of the 70’s - Got everything
When Pink Floyd first formed, the line-up was the same, save for the lead guitarist and songwriter was Syd Barrett. He led them for three albums, before succumbing to mental illness and excessive use of psychedelic drugs. The band was a collection of friends, and when Syd couldn't be counted on any more, they asked another friend, David Gilmour, to sit in for him. The rest is history. Roger Waters, together with Gilmour, became the band's songwriting force. But the band never forgot about their friend Syd, and the theme of mental illness in all it's varied forms, became a central thread running through their greatest albums - this one, "The Dark Side Of The Moon", then "Wish You Were Here", "Animals", and finally their magnum opus, "The Wall", about the emotional walls we build to protect ourselves.
Someone once said, 'Pink Floyd doesn't write songs; they write albums.' It's true; as you listen to their songs (and as you found on these two songs) the songs flow into each other, each one leading into the next. Most of PF's albums have only one pause - to flip the vinyl over, and play the other side. (As an illustration, the very first words on "The Wall" are "--we came in?", and the final words are "Isn't this where--". But if you're going to check this out, be careful. It's very, very quiet, and not worth blowing out speakers over.)
I'm sure most PF fans will encourage you to choose an album and listen to it, from start to finish, to really get a fuller and more complete understanding of the meanings behind their songs. And a perfect choice would be this one - 'Dark Side'. It has been called arguably the greatest album of all time. That's pretty lofty praise - but it has been archived by the Library of Congress for it's outstanding cultural significance. Not many others can say that.
Great choice!
We are actually on the dark side of the moon phase at this very minute 3/3/ 24 Lesley Duncan - backing vocals
Doris Troy - backing vocals
It's probably very hard for most people to choose one favorite band of the many they like. I'd have to pick Pink Floyd.
Sid Barret was told that LSD was the way to find yourself ... He downed a truckload and fried his brain .. poor sod ..😭
an amazing reaction from an amazing artist
"Brain Damage" is another nod to Pink Floyd co-founder in 1964, Syd Barrett, and his struggles with mental illness and severe abuse of LSD. Barrett got so bad he was unable to even perform in the band, they had to cut their first American tour short because of Syd.
By 1967 Syd Barrett was too far gone to continue with the band, they brought in Dave Gilmour, a good friend of Syd and the band, to play guitar and sing, filling in for Syd. All while Syd was still in the band, Syd would just stand onstage and not do anything, while Gilmour played and sang all his parts.
There are photos from those years that show all 5 of them as Pink Floyd. There's one line of lyrics in "Brain Damage" that is a direct reference to Syd Barrett,....
..... "And If The Band You're In Starts Playing Different Tunes,..... I'll See You On The Dark Side Of Of The Moon",...
On more than one occasion, live onstage, Syd would start playing a completely different song than what the band was playing! By the beginning of 1968 the rest of the band, including Gilmour, decided to just NOT pickup Syd for a show, and he was simply out of the band from then on.
All of the members of Pink Floyd, all close friends of Syd, felt really bad at what they had done, and undoubtedly feeling badly how they handled the situation, they composed many songs that referenced Syd. Including a whole album virtually about Syd in 1975, Pink Floyds "Wish You Were Here" album,.... Syd Barrett is the person they Wish Were Here.
Sad story.
This song always tripped me out. That one line "the lunatic is in my head"
Did Syd already know?
Syd was long gone by this time.
He would drop by from time to time; he moved into his parents' house in Cambridge. The band made sure he got his royalties. The next LP, Wish You Were Here, was, of course, about him.
@@steelers6titles As was the song "Shine on, you crazy diamond".
@@tejoe13 Right.
@@steelers6titlesExcept Roger says it isn't. He claims it's about mental illness in general, or some such. I'm starting to question if Roger is being honest.
I think pink flyod had many backup singers and some are famous backup singers. Some done a few other bands such as steely dan.
