I do really enjoy the remix albums but I'm mostly a purist when it comes to PF. I would typically opt to hear the original, I think it's just because I am so emotionally connected to their music and to what I heard the very first time I listened to each song.
I completely get where you're coming from. There's something special about the original versions, especially when you have such a deep emotional connection to the music. The remixes can offer a fresh perspective, but those first experiences (mine was cassette) with the original tracks are hard to top. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
“Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream” has to be one of the best lyrics ever written. Great reaction. I like this remix, but I think I prefer the original just a touch more - the selection they brought to the front of the sound wasn’t what I would have preferred.
That lyric is absolutely legendary-pure poetic brilliance. I get what you’re saying about the remix. Sometimes the original just hits the right notes in a way that’s hard to beat. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I probably listened to the 8-track version of this song 30 times before I finally caught on to Roger's voice transitioning seamlessly into that beautiful Richard Wright synth!!! Such as " The danger's not reeeeeeeelllllllll..........
That 8 track is a serious collectors item because it has that musical (full band) bridge between Pigs On The Wing 2 back into Pigs On The Wing Part 1 for when the cartridge ends and the machine clicks it back over to track 1.
Caro amico forse non sai che la parte finale di SHEEP è suonata al ritmo della Tarantella che è un ballo folcloristico del Sud Italia che viene eseguito nelle Feste Tradizionali popolari più importanti . È suonato in quelle occasioni da antichi strumenti a corda e a fiato e talvolta cantato accompagnato dal ballo di danzatori in costumi tipici locali . Probabilmente i Pink Floyd che conoscono bene il Sud Italia ( Pompei il luogo del famoso Live è ivicino Napoli che fa parte della Campania ,una Regione del Sud Italia) lo hanno usato sicuramente per manifestare la gioia delle Pecore che hanno sconfitto i Cani.

Thanks for this informative comment! I hadn’t considered the connection between the rhythm in the final part of Sheep and the Tarantella, but it makes perfect sense, especially given Pink Floyd’s familiarity with Southern Italy. It’s fascinating how they might have incorporated elements of traditional culture to represent a moment of victory and joy in the song. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro-I really appreciate the insight!
I can see why you feel that way. Sometimes remasters can change the feel of a track, and it’s tough when a key element like David's guitar sounds different. The original has a certain raw power that’s hard to replicate. Put me on a stranded island with either:) Thanks for your input!

Roger is a genius poet. His lyrics can't be beat.

Roger's voice blending into Richard Wright's synth is pure magic. Thanks for sharing your experience, and thank you for watching!

With your pending deep dives into "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Wish You Were Here", you definitely will not be disappointed!!!!
I'm really looking forward to those deep dives! I can't wait to explore them in detail. Thank you for the encouragement, and thank you for watching!
That bass is masterful...because its played by Gilmour....
Exactly my thoughts. Gilmour being Gilmour, always a masterclass in musicianship.
Don't forget or overlook "Meddle" ❤❤❤
Absolutely! Thanks for reminding me & everyone of this classic. Only scratched the surface on this channel. Thank you for watching!

Sounds OK, but it seems that David's guitar have been seriously tuned down - not a big fan of this remaster.
