Agree to an extent, although in the timeline you have to give "Eugene" its due for being sonic CPR for a mortally wounded band. They had to lean hard on that Axe to survive. Otherwise, yes sir, Meddle is the wick that exploded The Big Four.
Meddle is a crucial album for Pink Floyd. It's where the definitive Pink Floyd sound can be found for the first time and it's the opening act of their MIGHTY albums run: Meddle DSOTM WYWH Animals The wall (Yeah let's pretend that OBC was never a thing). Echoes is definetely one of their best songs and probably one of the best songs of all time
@@martykehoe8510 all of us oldtime Floyd fans know that if you gotta diss one of their albums, then Atom Heart Mother is the way to go..we tried so hard to like that album when it was brand new, I was gratified to learn that none of the band like it either...
Hell. NO. Let's not pretend Obscured by Clouds was never a thing. It's an absolute cracker of an album and has at the very least a couple of total standouts but the album as a whole is solid.
The album cover is not a beach, it is someone's ear canal. Turn the photo 90 degrees. The water ripples are superimposed over the top of the photo. Wonderful album!
Let me tell you guys, this song in concert, on Acid....well, I have no words to describe the feeling except that l'll never forget it for as long as l live🤟🤪🥰
It's intensity fades perfectly, to bring you to "A Pillow Of Winds". Back then much attention was being paid to track selection on albums, which is why DSOM became one long Concert Piece
As others have said, seeing this performed live took it to another level. I saw their 1994 Division Bell tour in DC. When the full drum groove dropped midway through the song , massive inflatable pigs burst out of towers on both sides of the stage, along with huge pyro effects. We could feel the heat from the pyros while our clothes were rippling from the power of the bass. Full sensory experience!
I saw them in Indianapolis that year and then maybe a month later, in Chicago. Indianapolis was indoors and the huge disco ball hung from the dome ceiling. In Chicago, the show was in Soldier Field and the disco ball was in a huge bow in the center of the field and rose out of the box on a chrome lattice tower. Both shows were fantastic (of course, they were pretty much identical). Mind-blowing stuff.
🤗 Nosebleed section in NJ Meadowlands! 🤣 The Pigs🐖 scared the crap out of me. 😒 Seriously sounded like something was about to explode but 😌 it could have also been the Acid kicking in. 🤷🏿♀️ You never knew what to expect at a PF show except 1 thing. 😳 Took you 24 hrs for your eyes to adjust from the Laser show! 🤭🤣😁😉🐰
I was there, too. Lower level, back by the humongous mirror ball. What a fantastic show! One of the best I’ve ever seen. I’ll never forget those pigs, or the ball spinning faster and faster until it opened. The whole night was truly amazing. Can’t believe they are tearing down RFK. Too many great memories from there to even begin to count (especially all the Dead shows).
A few times, in the early 1970s, a few of us UW students living in Haggett Hall, North Tower, Devoe House, would gather in this one guy's dorm room on a weekend night and listen to this entire record through his fine stereo system (great Bose speakers high on the walls thru, I think, a McIntosh amp). Plus lots of other great LPs of the time (a bunch of Moody Blues, for example). Great times.
The ONLY way to listen to this album and especially this song, is on vinyl with 2 big speakers on opposite sides of the room. And loud. Creates a circle of sound. A pioneer amp may also be required.
I remember when this first Meddle album track was played on the BBC's Old Grey Whistle Test in 1972, introduced by 'Whispering' Bob Harris. It featured a cartoon ballet dancer dancing through time and space titled 'French Windows', created by an art student called Ian Emes. It was a radical departure from the usual rock video.
@3:!7 PF nod to Dalia Darbyshire, the sculptress of sound. She crafted the iconic Dr. Who theme by physically cutting and splicing endless reems of magneric tape by hand. The BBC refused to give her credit.
This is the album where they found the sound that would define their legacy. Most of the stuff before this was experimental with not a lot of direction.
When I was a teen ... long - long - time ago ... this track was played on British TV and the visuals were an animation ... for me they will always go together ... here is the youtube title ... give it a watch ... Tripping Man ! ... "Pink Floyd - One of These Days (‘French Windows’)"
First, the album cover art is a picture of a human ear, turned sideways, underwater. Also need to remember that this album came out in 1971, so the technology level was nothing like today, in fact, those buttons on keyboards and stuff to press for certain effects, were INVENTED in this era!! Not the buttons, but making those special effects. Watch live concerts from that time and SEE how bands back then got feedback from the amps and stuff. One of These Days from the movie Live at Pompeii, shows something I haven't seen anywhere else: the drummer, Nick Mason, actually loses a stick in the middle of playing this song, but grabs a spare so quickly, you can barely notice that he slipped up his fill (slightly) Unfortunately, the one drawback I find to this version, is that they somehow lost the track for Gilmour's guitar, and so you only hear it through what the other mics picked up, and it sounds so faint. Also, I have seen a video from mid '60's of Pink Floyd live. They had some kind of light projector (like for slide shows, or what profs used for pre-written lessons), but they had some kind of different coloured liquids not mixing, but flowing around and through each other, and THAT was projected on the group as they played. Pretty well the first light show I think. And they were known for their live shows, not them jumping around or doing anything outrageous, but the lights and sounds. I have seen them twice, and there never were, aren't any today, nor ever will be again, a group like Pink Floyd. EVERY NOTE, on every song, was EXACTLY as loud or soft as it had to be compared to every other note. This was one reason why their best albums took 2 years to record. But they were worth it, and still are worth it, 50 years later!! Fun fact: Dark Side of the Moon spent 952 WEEKS on the record charts!! Do the math! Over 19 YEARS!!!!!!
This is the track that made me a Floyd fan, this and "Echoes", well before "Dark Side of the Moon".. You guys are making very solid picks of songs to feature,
NJ Meadowlands for me! They plugged in the Dr Who Theme and the audience lost it, to put it mildly! It was all the talk in Class the next day. Also totally appreciate NJ is literally 17 minute bus ride from Port Authority or 20 minute Ride on a PATH Train. #ILoveNY 🗽
This is my all time fav Pink Floyd song. That i am going to cut you to little pieces is still my fav part. it just comes out of nowhere and than no more words.
Pink Floyd - Buy the ticket, take the ride. That base holding it down is killer, then Gilmore just goes off. Their albums are like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're going to get (laugh). Great job guys - as always it's greatly appreciated.
@Clifton call me a pedant but you know exactly what you're going to get in a box of chocolates as most manufacturers include an illustrated contents guide. Floyd albums also have a list of contents/tracks but as you correctly point out, when you hear them for the first time you don't know what's coming.
This was my first Pink Floyd LP. I bought it because of the cool LP cover. I found many good bands like this: Jethro Tull, Trapeze, Spirit, etc. 50 years ago Dark Side of the Moon came out. I was working on a golf course, smoking a natural weed, and watching a concrete mixer go round and round.
Wonderful choice! This is the first Pink Floyd album I bought years and years ago. You should listen to the entire album particularly side two 'Echoes'. I always thought that this album and 'Dark Side of the Moon' were their two finest albums!
First time hearing this, no headphones so a speaker on either side of my head, off my tits on quality Afghan hashish. Ah the 70's. Great days long gone. 65 now. Memories
This track is a tour de force to show off how boss Roger Waters was on bass, and then Gilmour on guitar. Searing live song I finally got to see in concert in 1987, and several times since. Psychedelic lights and strobes, just a mind melding track to witness live. It was so loud yet so tight, I remember thinking my head was going to explode! The live version goes on a lot longer, guitar jamming much more intense.
This song literally changed my life. I listened to so much classic rock that I was burned out. Some of it was, of course, great. Some of it was just the same old thing over and over. Then I heard this song and it blew my mind. There are no crazy, foreign instrument. This is a keyboard, bass, drums, and guitar-but what they did with those rock and roll instruments was like nothing I’d ever heard. Pink Floyd changed my world forever.
Love Meddle - probably my fave Floyd album. You need to check out this track on the "Live at Pompeii" video. There's a great multi-camera/multi-angle shot of Nick Mason losing a drumstick and recovering w/o missing a beat - it's pretty epic.
You guys should check out the band Airbag, from Oslo, Norway. They have a Pink Floyd sound mixed with a bit of Porcupine Tree. They have several albums; Identity (2009), All Rights Removed (2011), The Greatest Show On Earth (2013), Disconnected (2016) & A Day At The Beach (2020). Guitarist/Vocalist Bjørn Riis' solo albums are good too: Lullabies In A Car Crash (2014), Forever Comes To An End (2017), A Storm Is Coming (2019) & Everything To Everyone (2022). Porcupine Tree have some Floyd sounding stuff too, especially on some of their albums from the 90s. Signify (1996) & Stupid Dream (1999) are great albums to start with.
Now in my 60s and fellow drummer, I think should check out *Pink Floyd - One Of These Days (Live At Pompeii) 1972* Filmed and recorded live inside ruins of the Ppompeii Colosseum. Only cameras working during this song were all focused on the drummer - Defiantly Trippy Video for its Time and Well Worth a Revisit IMO.
When you open the album it's an ear...I was 11 when I got that album for my birthday off my brother, 1971..😳 he took me to see them for my 14th birthday 👍 the Empire theatre Liverpool UK, Pink Floyd, the Dark Side of the Moon tour...😏 they did Echoes as an encore, I feel blessed growing up with the best prog rock bands in the world, enjoy the trip boys.....you're a few doobies, munchies, and a lava lamp short of a banging night in, ❤️
Interesting that you were reminded of Flash Gordon, since only seconds after that comment when the melody slows down at 03:16, that's where their inspiration from the theme music of the classic British sci-fi show Dr. Who is all the more on display. It was created by Delia Derbyshire (one of them mentioned this somewhere, just can't recall which interview or band member, but probably Roger).
Atom Heart Mother and Meddle are the albums where Pink Floyd's ingenuity and musical mastery came together to form the Pink Floyd sound we know and love which (in my opinion) lead to their greatest works. Cheers for the reaction video.
" Masters of Sound " - That sums it all up ! What a great way to describe them. And no shit brothers ... you guys are a real treasure in a sea full of garbage. It's a privilege to listen to your broadcasts. That comes straight from Northern Ontario Canada. Sudbury to be exact. Cheers !
Don't you dare change your style. It is so refreshing. Your appreciation of not only the music but your appreciation of the artist, the sound engineer, etc makes your shows so valuable. Never never lose that beautiful sincerity. Or I will personally have to hunt you both down and give you a stern warning. Canada Style ! Cheers dudes. @@AirplayBeats
Typical film and TV music, sounds revolutionary, is also in the Pompeii documentation. On Meddle and Atom Mother Heart there is a long main track (an album side) and shorter, musically totally different individual songs, often by individual group members. It's a catchy track and musically it was in a different dimension back then.
for me this song is parangon of Apocalypse... I hear the Monster, the Beast coming...should be called "End of these days"...one of the greatest Doom song, you won't escape...
Why are you spreading this fake news? The single didn't chart at the time. The biggest singles in Pink Floyd history, given the fact that they weren't a hit band, were Another Brick 2, Money, See Emily Play and Comfortably NUmb.
This is probably one of my favorite songs other than Echos, and Fearless on this album. On any given day, I would probably pick this album up and listen to it than any other PF album.
![*REACTION* PINK FLOYD- “ ONE OF THESE DAYS” Live [Pulse Restored & Re-Edited]](/img/n.gif)
He says "one of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces..."
Yeah, man..Meddle.. Hardcore only need apply...
Twice I got speeding tickets while listening to this song . The 1980's were fun 😂
Just such a great bass riff. Lead bass is always fun.
The drummer Nick Mason's vocal debut!
He's quite the crooner. Reminds me of Bing Crosby.
In my mind, this is the first classic Pink Floyd song. This is where it all came together.
Agree to an extent, although in the timeline you have to give "Eugene" its due for being sonic CPR for a mortally wounded band. They had to lean hard on that Axe to survive. Otherwise, yes sir, Meddle is the wick that exploded The Big Four.

I still like to listen to OBC once in a while.
@@flyingardilla143 yeah, man, you can see it coming...
Skipping over OBC is a big mistake. Spoken like a true band wagon "Floyd fan".

Production is off the charts
The first bass is Gilmour, the second one coming in is Waters. Love early Floyd. Such a breakthrough album.
Sorry Dude,
David is LEAD GUITAR.
Roger is the bassist.
@@snoozedonaldyes, David Gilmour is the lead guitarist but he does also play bass on this track as does Roger Waters.
Drummer Nick Mason on the lone heartfelt vocal: "One of these Days I'm gonna cut you into little pieces"
The album cover is not a beach, it is someone's ear canal. Turn the photo 90 degrees. The water ripples are superimposed over the top of the photo. Wonderful album!
Which is a great way of describing Pink Floyds music poetically... 'Like water ripples across your ear canal.'
It’s a pig ear.
@@Christopher50now 😳
I always saw it as a pigs snout
Absolutely, a masterpiece album !

It's intensity fades perfectly, to bring you to "A Pillow Of Winds". Back then much attention was being paid to track selection on albums, which is why DSOM became one long Concert Piece
Fearless is my favorite cut off of this album. In a way it sounds like it could have come off of Led Zeppelin III
Fearless is my favorite Pink Floyd song and Friends is my favorite Zeppelin song - maybe because they are so different from what they’re known for.

In my humble opinion “Meddle” is their finest…and that says a lot.
There’s a great version of One of these Days on the Live at Pompeii video. It really highlights Nick Masons work on the drums.
Absolutely EPIC performance!
Especially dropping a stick without missing a beat.

Enjoyed your reaction, as always. For anyone wanting to know the lyrics, "One of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces".
It's a rare vocal from Nick Mason. He was thinking about a pie with no crust.
Every time I go skiing I put this on for my first run down the mountain
That’s too cool✌🏽☮️
I've heard every Floyd up to the Final Cut several times. I feel like this is their best song. It has all the PF elements I like in a song.
My first Floyd album known as psychedelic Music....I think you get it!! Such a pivotal album for Floyd...this whole album is mind blowing!!!
I’m really liking La’s Pink Floyd reactions.
When you see his head start shaking no, you know he’s feeling every bit of it.
First, the album cover art is a picture of a human ear, turned sideways, underwater.

Certain songs I can literally see you guys minds expanded musically, THIS was one of those songs 💯
My very favorite Pink Floyd Album!
That is one kick ass tune ! 50 years of loving the Floyd !
Yeah! This one, like Interstellar Overdrive, indicated where they were heading next.
This is my all time fav Pink Floyd song. That i am going to cut you to little pieces is still my fav part. it just comes out of nowhere and than no more words.
You guys really need to see the live Pulse version , takes on whole different feel. Amazing performance.
This whole album is awesome! He says "ONe of these days I'm gonna cut you into little pieces" Great reaction to this track guys!
Deep-cut Led Zeppelin and early Pink Floyd on the same day? It's another great morning here with Airplay Beats, ain't it? 🤘
Song sounds like a hurricane approaching land and waiting to launch its fury!
In other words, it sounds BADASS!!
The beginning of their classic period. You can hear hints of Animals and DSOTM in this one. 🔥
Pink Floyd - Buy the ticket, take the ride. That base holding it down is killer, then Gilmore just goes off.
Their albums are like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're going to get (laugh). Great job

There is nothing better than feeling the experience of PF live! They brought me to tears more than once! Incredible

Deep dark pink right there
My favorite Floyd album
Almost shaved my head TRIPPING listening to this album many moons ago. Rock on.
I heard this shortly after it was released. The LSD I had taken was in high gear, peak hour. Will never forget.
Love Meddle - probably my fave Floyd album. You need to check out this track on the "Live at Pompeii" video. There's a great multi-camera/multi-angle shot of Nick Mason losing a drumstick and recovering w/o missing a beat - it's pretty epic.
If you guys enjoy Pink Floyd’s keys and soundtrack sounds, you should check Deep Purple “The book of Taliesyn” it’s great.
Cheers from Australia!
one of my favourite songs when i saw them live!!!
Released in 1971 and this song was released as a single
Interesting choice on your part. This is a fave of most serious PF fans
Used during sporting events on TV over the years
Rick Wright definitely loved Doctor Who. He plays a bit of the theme tune in this track and on Animals.
You guys should check out the band Airbag, from Oslo, Norway. They have a Pink Floyd sound mixed with a bit of Porcupine Tree. They have several albums; Identity (2009), All Rights Removed (2011), The Greatest Show On Earth (2013), Disconnected (2016) & A Day At The Beach (2020). Guitarist/Vocalist Bjørn Riis' solo albums are good too: Lullabies In A Car Crash (2014), Forever Comes To An End (2017), A Storm Is Coming (2019) & Everything To Everyone (2022).
Porcupine Tree have some Floyd sounding stuff too, especially on some of their albums from the 90s. Signify (1996) & Stupid Dream (1999) are great albums to start with.
This was unlike anything they had ever done & pointed us right towards Dark Side Of The Moon.
My favourite Floyd album ❤
Now in my 60s and fellow drummer, I think should check out *Pink Floyd - One Of These Days (Live At Pompeii) 1972*
Filmed and recorded live inside ruins of the Ppompeii Colosseum. Only cameras working during this song were all focused on the drummer - Defiantly Trippy Video for its Time and Well Worth a Revisit IMO.

The live version from Pulse will leave you breathless
Lost a conrod to this years ago. When the smoke cleared..it was still playing. Brilliant times.

Cheers for the reaction video.
Can't wait for you guys to get to Pillow of Winds and Fearless, both of those are probably my favorite Floyd songs of all time!
I remember dropping acid and listening to this wearing a headset . Eons ago now , but I grew up with fantastic music !
Wow. I was gonna suggest that Laa and Chee would do this one ! And you already have! Are you ready? Yep ! Let’s go!
This to me was the 1st song that had the Pink Floyd sound as they finally emerged from the drug addled sounds prior.
So dope how the reverse symbols work with the synth on those building hits
Interesting album for sure !
" Masters of Sound " - That sums it all up ! What a great way to describe them. And no shit brothers ... you guys are a real treasure in a sea full of garbage. It's a privilege to listen to your broadcasts. That comes straight from Northern Ontario Canada. Sudbury to be exact. Cheers !

Pink Floyd pulse live version is great also.

Check out the live version at the Pulse concert.
