@@nlkasman3347 Always thought it was Syd playing lead here, sounds like his style of playing, and as far as I knew, David only contributed the bass playing to this album, and Syd overdubbed all the lead guitar parts himself... but now you mention it, you could be right about this particular slide guitar solo, it's reminiscent of David's solo on "Wot's Uh The Deal"... it's a great solo whoever played it!
@@nlkasman3347 nope. It was a studio custodian who went by the name of Honolulu Jeff. He was the one brushing his teeth a few years later too. You can think of him as Lazlo from the movie Real Genius.
IT IS REALLY FUCKING COMPLEX, there are so many layers of sounds one guitar is keeping the harmony, other guitar is painting a beautiful but abstract solo melody and the other is just there making mind blowing duck noises that reminds us of the last part of Bike. Meanwhile the voice sings an amazingly beautiful, honest and pure poem that's full of melancholy and can easily make you cry when you're in the mood...
This song is here cause Syd was the vessel who brought it back to earth from one of his countless trips (i.e.instead of Apollo revealing himself to us).
Just imagine how much more interesting Floyd would've been with Barrett still on board through the 70s. I have a feeling that Waters wanted to be the main man anyway. Some of the tunes he released after he left (like this) show what a unique talent he was. LSD can be a f****r.
@@luisspeciale4675 I agree, and they did some superb stuff post Barrett. Would just love to have heard Syd carry on with them without having crashed on LSD. Such a talent.
@@joannetelling his solo albums were technically Floyd projects in all but name. Nick is the only member who didn't participate, because he couldn't keep up with Syd's erratic timing. Even Syd's own replacement as Floyd's front man joined in (Gilmour), heavily. It was still Syd composing the pop stuff, getting weird on guitar, and heading the whole thing up, being the central talent as always. Madcap even has similarities to Dark Side, and Dark Globe sounds like The Wall. Throw in some extended jamming and his solo albums would be the next natural step for Pink Floyd (which he named) to have taken with him still as the leader. If the studio side of Ummagumma qualifies as a Pink Floyd album, Madcap and Barrett certainly should. They sound better than what Floyd were producing on their own anyway, at the time. They could've been recorded yesterday.
L'assolo di chitarra è devastante per eleganza e delicatezza....commuove chiunque abbia sensibilità musicale e conferma ancora una volta la genialità di un uomo fuori dal tempo e da ogni logica umana.
Very beautiful indeed. But analysing such beautiful music can be very enlighting. I was just finishing my transcription of this song and like many of his songs it's harmonically, rhythmically and melodically very interesting. He had so many nice ideas and you can see clearly the benefits that songwriters have that don't care about music theory. He was so free.
Tell me about it... I just spent the most beautiful 3 days with my girlfriend, the girl of my dreams (distance relationship, she lives a 4 hour drive from me)... my car had broken down so I borrowed my brother's car... those 3 days were the best of my life, in fact every moment I have ever spent with her seemed just like a dream, girl was so kind, kind of love I've never seen.... she left me over the fact my brother was having issues with his own relationship, and I needed to support him, so on her last day here, I spent it trying to support him, as you can imagine she was pretty pissed off at that... she is still in contact with me, we will meet again this month for my birthday (near the end of January), but our relationship is shaky... my brother and his girlfriend seem to have broken up... what a way to start 2024
This song sounds like it could have fit right into Pink Floyd's 70's back catalogue. Shows the kind of contribution Syd could have made in the band if he was still a creative part of it.
Late Night By Syd Barrett Is My Fave This Song Is Sweet I Have Been Listening To Syd Barrett For Several Years I Personally Think It's Sad How Pink Floyd Capitalized On The Mental Illness Syd Was Suffering !! Syd Barrett Is Unique Very Talented Artist :)
Honestly, I think their tributes to Syd and allusions to him in their music was the only way they could all collectively make sense of it, and deal with it. I don't believe it was ever some cynical move to make money.
Syd was writing great material, with great lead guitar, at the same time Pink Floyd were aimlessly recording Umagumma. Makes one think what PF would have been if Syd hadn’t been booted from the band. Syd’s ‘Barrett’ LP is like What PF would have been. Produced by Gilmore and Wright. Gilmore on bass and Wright on keyboards!!!
It's not theft. Music is heart soul sound and paint. Few dabs drip off falling into another, quite natural natal children learn from their Satyrn parents.
I think I can hear Blur's inspo from this track on "Trimm Trabb", possibly a similar chord progression. Might just be me though. Love Syd, he was a genius!
Definitely not just you reading the comments for both songs. I think most would agree with that, especially considering Graham Coxon considers Syd Barrett to be one of his major influences. Even though it's a common thing for people to say riffs are stolen.. it kind of seems more likely than not in this case (well, to me). But Blur did something really cool with it, and I'm glad nothing ever came up from that. It's really cool that people take influence from Syd's solo work even though it's clear not much time was put in, though that doesn't affect how great these songs are at all. I wonder if Syd Barrett would himself recognize it, or maybe if he heard it?
Anyone got the sheet music for the lead electric? I'm learning each part, the acoustic guitar was pretty easy find chords for and the bass was easy to figure out by ear, but for me it's harder to recognise notes by ear on the guitar.
@@lodocart4681 That's right. His playing was very rough compared to Gilmour's clean and technically very good one. Barrett still had very great ideas, but was struggling with performing them for a while already. So some of his former bandmates were supporting him with producing his solo albums.

IN MY OPINION THIS IS THE BEST SYD'S SOLO SONG.
COMPLETELLY agree! My fave.
I love this one and Gigolo Aunt
Baby Lemonade is also good.

This is a hidden gem that if someone put it in movie,it would take off...
I second this, I could see this sounding really great in a movie scene.
Words... cannot describe... how one man could make such simple songs amazing.
This is talent, what can I say
girl…was so kind…
I don't think he was ever describable to begin with...R.I.P. SYD...ALOT OF PEOPLE LOVE YOU STILL AND THE OTHERS HAVEN'T CAUGHT UP YET!!!
One of the things that makes Syd
so special is...
(

.
Kinda love...
Who don't love Syd?
Syd, you'll always be a wound in my soul
lmao well put
Syd sounds like the prototype for acid folk, lo-fi, indie pop, alternative outsider music.....so much.
Before hipsters, it was just referred to as being yourself.
Yes, exactly, I agree with you!@@Josephine_Mass
@@richalderson6069 💜
So sweet and romantic...he always sounds so innocent, sweet and unassuming..this is a very beautiful song...I love it!
Syd was a genius. This song moves me more than most songs do.
Remember when you first heard this song...
Every song of his makes my heart ache.
That's not a good thing
I get an erection.
Just playing the music honours his memory
Mr Barrett raised upon higher grounds free and happy for eternity. Thanks for the joy you gave everyone. Bless your immaculate soul
The guitar solo is sublime.
That's David Gilmour.

@@nlkasman3347 No it's not. Gilmour was insistent that Syd played ALL the guitar parts on this album, no matter how painful that was to achieve.
I remember a summer of innocence and perceived freedom . I wanted to be 23 forever
Sit down and keep your mouth shut or they're coming for you.
Syd lives.
This song is amazingly complex and wonderful.
not really complex but it is wonderful
IT IS REALLY FUCKING COMPLEX, there are so many layers of sounds one guitar is keeping the harmony, other guitar is painting a beautiful but abstract solo melody and the other is just there making mind blowing duck noises that reminds us of the last part of Bike.

@@toyaquiyvoyaya still not complex ;)
@@toyaquiyvoyaya who cares if it's complex or not. Complexity does not necessarily determine quality
It’s not a complex song man. Great melody though
Great tune that ferments like fine wine
A Milestone in the development of modern Folk and Rock Music.
I'm beginning to think this guy kicked off at least 4 major rock genres.
@@057wolf he even started beatboxing haha (pow r toc h), the one genre id say he wasnt responsible for was probably metal
@@samurboi8007 There's a bootleg of him alternate picking Interstellar Overdrive fast.. so
Is the slide work on this just superb or what??? RIP Roger!!
Awesome that you called him Roger...
Incredible slide play
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs of Syd, and of the late 60s/early 70s for that matter.
Thanks Syd for this beautiful song
Syd was unique!!!!!!!
Can't stop listening
This song is here cause Syd was the vessel who brought it back to earth from one of his countless trips (i.e.instead of Apollo revealing himself to us).
God he was beautiful!!!!
Is
Beautiful melancholy. Reminds me of a girl...
It takes poetic and artistic great efforts to reproduce this kind of tunes. Very simple and very special
Just imagine how much more interesting Floyd would've been with Barrett still on board through the 70s. I have a feeling that Waters wanted to be the main man anyway. Some of the tunes he released after he left (like this) show what a unique talent he was. LSD can be a f****r.
Thank fuck he wasn't or we wouldn't have had these two incredible albums. Or the amazing Floyd albums.
When They let Syd go, Most of the songs Roger Waters wrote was about Syd Barrett.
@@luisspeciale4675 I agree, and they did some superb stuff post Barrett. Would just love to have heard Syd carry on with them without having crashed on LSD. Such a talent.
They were never able to reach the heights of songwriting that Syd reached. The Piper is simply unmatched.

my heart just missed a beat

Parole perfette … Syd era veramente non in un altro mondo ma in un altro universo!
l'album fu prodotto da Gilmour non a caso
@@giorgioaltruda1606Erano amici e a lui ci teneva
The genius has spoken!!!!
yes he did.
This song is too beautiful to need analysing. A masterpiece even by Syd's exceptional standards.
Very beautiful indeed. But analysing such beautiful music can be very enlighting.

@@benjaminsteinmusic I take your point Benjamin, my brother is a musicologist and would agree with your stance, as upon reflection do I.
You mean because you can’t analyze it? Lol you just filling along baba
Words do not suffice
Just an incredible song. You don't want it to end.... like a trip with a girl.
Tell me about it...

Loving this song so much.
Beautiful and painful.
Love this song. Love the Madcap Laughs
This song sounds like it could have fit right into Pink Floyd's 70's back catalogue. Shows the kind of contribution Syd could have made in the band if he was still a creative part of it.
I don't know if I'm right but I think Waters and Gilmour had a lot of inspiration listening to syd's tracks later, when they were without him
this and "dominoes". that's the sound pink floyd could have with syd about 1969/70
He kinda beat them to the Obscured by Clouds phase.
one of the best songs of syd.
Me encanta esta cancion .
Played this over and over beautiful song thanks syd.
Fantastic
I love Syd!!!!!
I just love the guitar on this tune
agreed! one of my favorites of his when i was a kid.
way ahead of it's time...
When will the time come
Timeless imo
So, so beautiful....
Pure Genius! ❤
Psychedelic Nectar!
Pure Samadhi!
Learnin this one !!
Every time this comes on, it almost sounds like it's about to be Norwegian Wood and then NO ITS NOT ITS BARRETT
this song is a masterpiece
this sound like Trimm Trabb of blur !!!!

Syd Barrett Is Unique Very Talented Artist :)
Honestly, I think their tributes to Syd and allusions to him in their music was the only way they could all collectively make sense of it, and deal with it. I don't believe it was ever some cynical move to make money.
They actually paid syd royalties on every album they did as well
such a soothing song yet so deep....its amazing
This song sounds trippy,lol I love it,he is beautiful just as his music.

I really love the way Syd sings this part in particular 2:13 - 2:20 I always anticipate that part when I listen to this song.
Now I see that Kurt Cobain stole some of the Syd's musical style...
Kurt Cobain stole from many artists. Fake talent and overrated. Syd on the other hand was an amazing and talented songwriter
@@sym667 lol I guess
They were both amazing songwriters
So did Jim Morrison. The Doors could have has many other different names, such as The Kinks Tribute 😅
It's not theft. Music is heart soul sound and paint. Few dabs drip off falling into another, quite natural natal children learn from their Satyrn parents.
Great song (& there's a pretty cool '60 or '61 Bonneville in that photo).
John Burns It's actually a 1959 Pontiac, the 1960 models didn't have the split grille. The 1961 Model is squarer and totally different.
love this song: it's got a hauting dreamy yet pleasantly nostalgic feel to it
This song is epic. A hidden gem.

Syd's songs are more complex than some say, and some of them are extremely difficult to reproduce (unlike most popular music).
That's true. I was just transcribing some of them including this one. Not easy if you want it to be accurate.
i just love you so much syd
Syd Barret simplesmente gênio 👏👏👏
One of the best!
i see this is the song blur got inspiration for their song trimm trabb
Da brividi. Semplicemente fantastica. RIP my hero Keith Roger.

Dear old Syd....
love songs!!!! Is that a duck call, I hear?
just watched a "the animals video" .. syd inspired so much other artists , its just amazing !
Reminds me of Nirvana but more elegant. Great tune
