There was a lot of rare interviews and videos I had to dig through on the internet but I credited what I can remember.
Honourable mentions for the doc.
They were first called The MegaDeth.
The name is derived from the given names of two blues musicians whose Piedmont blues records Barrett had in his collection, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council.
Arnold Layne was banned from BBC
Gear was stolen on ummagumma tour including David’s first White Telecaster
Syd Barrett’s overdose
Syd Barrett’s solo albums
A momentary lapse of reason, the division bell and the endless river.
It has been 2 years since I released this film I made… I truly made this out of pure love for the band and nothing else, the feedback I’ve gotten from everyone even to this day astounds me and I’m extremely grateful, 1 million of you took time to look at something I made out of love and I’ll forever be grateful for all of you for that, and I’ll forever be grateful for pink floyd for allowing this to stay up… it really means a lot to me as a lifelong fan, and I cherish every moment of it. A couple of things I want to mention is I know there are a couple audio glitches here and there, and I got a fact or two wrong, but again as I mentioned doing it out of love, I didn’t expect it to be perfect, if I could go back and change everything and do it the right way I absolutely would… but because of the view count I’ll allow it to stay and do better for future projects… again thank you all. You are the reason I do what I do.
It's great, thanks.
Bouta watch rn while tripping
I'm gonna watch it now, I hope it's as good as people claim.
I still link your video to people who want to know the history kudos bro
You did an amazing job. Thank you for this labour of love. 🙏
The positive feedback truly is amazing thank you all, I just want to say although this isn’t an official release and is a fan made documentary, you all make it feel as though it very well could be. Many blessings and more content to come in the future. ❤️ all credits to those involved and big thanks to everyone who circulated the footage through the interwebs for the last 20+ years. If It wasn’t for you none of this would exist for us to see. I always watched old documentaries and found it was lacking many parts of the story. I always just wanted to compile everything and make it easy for a first time pink floyd listener to understand. Also big thanks to pink floyd for allowing this to stay up. Your music is truly a blessing to us all.
You done good.
Once again proving fan made docs are the best.
Truly, this is one of the best documentaries out there. Better than just about all of the professionally produced ones I've seen. 💪💪💪
Fantastic ! Thank you !
I was glued watching from start to finish once again thank you 👏🏻👏🏻
The Pompeii stuff still blows my mind. I mean I keep imagining that you are there as a tourist. You are off in the distance, and you hear a strange sound, climb over the hill top and see this spectacle...
It was outstanding then, it's marvelous still today.
No matter who or how, no one will beat them
I'm 55, and a HUGE Floyd fan. I never had the opportunity to see them before Roger left. I have seen Floyd, many, many times since. Also, I've seen Roger Waters just as many times. I've watched dozens of Floyd documentaries, but this is, BY FAR, the best. Thank you very much...
56 years old ,Pink Floyd has been there with me all my life,
This documentary has mad Value,
Thanks to All who made it happen,
Cheers Bro’s
Cheers my friend. Hope all is well with you. Keep on rockin.
it's just mind boggling that they were so creative and prolific in their first 10 years...'67-'77...
I was going to fail senior year of high school by one test. My teacher have me the opportunity to do a report on anything and if it was good enough they would let me pass. But I hated this teacher and she hated me, so I decided to fail senior year by doing a report on Pink Floyd. Long story short, I passed. I suspect if youtube or this documentary existed at the time I would have never been given the chance to save myself. A massive life lesson was learned and Pink Floyd was the vehicle and soundtrack to that time. Such a dynamic band and such dynamic lyrics. They change meaning as my life and perspective changes. Pink Floyd was special.
*Pink Floyd is special ❤️
Maybe your teacher was a secret pothead!! (After all, she was probably in college during the ‘60s)!
@@Geezer-yf8hv too high strung for that 😅 maybe she would have been more chill.
I’ve known my Pink Floyd lore since I was a teenager and your use of footage, song choice and so on made it feel like I was learning something new over again. Hats off to you. Seriously.
Likewise(except not been a fan all my life.)but having an understanding on 'putting together.editing etc its no Bicycle man..so my hats off to this film maker. too.
Same here!
The amazing thing, like the case is with Fleetwood Mac and Peter Green, is that Syd gave the band it's birth and his influence guided them throughout the rest of their careers. A testament to both himself and the friends who have never let his memory be forgotten.
Don’t forget the Blind Owl of Canned Heat!
@@luisherrera2193 I’ve always wanted to make a thorough compilation on canned heat. As they’re quite underrated.
@@psychforthechildren that sir, is a very hard task. As there is little footage of them with Alan Wilson. Only a handful of live concerts and interviews
Then I guess there's a parallel to Brain Jones and the Stones. Except I don't recall the Stones having much gratitude for Brian having formed/named/managed/playing/writing, etc.
The style of the band at this point was heavily indebted to the first Pink Floyd album, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, but filtered through their own color spectrum. The Pink Floyd connection went beyond mere sonic hat tipping, since Alice Cooper played host to Pink Floyd on the British band's first U.S. tour.
“We were the house band at the Cheetah for a period of time in ’67,” Smith recalls. “One of the perks was we could go see any of the bands playing there. Pink Floyd were there one week. I remember the first or second song they played, Syd went up to sing and boom! A spark came from the microphone and hit his lip. He just put his arms down to his sides, backed about a foot away from the stand and just stood there like a statue for the rest of the night. After the show, they came back to our house and partied with us all night long. Syd walked in like a zombie. He didn’t talk to anybody, he just stood there. He seemed a bit psychotic, and the mass quantities of LSD certainly didn’t help.”

Those bastards didn't even take him to the hospital even after he was electrocuted on stage.
My first thought was "I've probably seen most of stuff anyway" but had a look and was interested throughout the docu. A very good film and of course a big homage to Syd Barrett, as catalyst of something that'll be remembered for ever.The title is so apt as that is where we are right now with lockdown in the uk till beginning of december, we're all skating on thin ice, great we can still hear any music we want to until we can't, A great band who I saw live in the late sixties and went on a call out to the Busy Bee on the M1 to rescue their ford transit, with the gong on the back, on its way to Luton for a gig,subsequentially cancelled,we towed them back to London where they had a gig in hyde park the next day. That's another story
But they didn't have a guard dog, they had a bengal tiger. Had to beat them to death with their own shoes ...
@Gary Mckenna but of course by that time Keith couldn't be killed by conventional weapons.
So, The Wall was supposed to contain a lot of live concert footage, but was deemed unusable. The clips you showed here are the best I have seen from those concerts! Once again, cudos to you!
OMG! I don't believe that this doc was made by a PF fan. You set very well the controls for the heart of the band -) Congrats and thank you very much!!!!
One of the best Pink Floyd docs out there, for the sole reason that Grantchester Meadows is played in full. Those years 67-72 saw some of Pink Floyd's most beautiful music.
Greg allman "listening to pink Floyd is better then going to Disneyland". I will gladly second this notion. Awesome job with the doc. One of the best independent fan docs I've seen, bar none. Thank you.
From 1 to 100, with 100 being the best, this has to be a 100. Much effort here. Very, very enjoyable. Thank you, May 2022.
I've loved the Floyd since I can remember. I am 63 years old and I have been playing guitar for 54 years. I'm from Croatia, ex-Yugoslavia from Zadar on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. I was at the Floyd concert at the Olympiahalle in Munich on the Animals tour. An unforgettable concert. During the war in Croatia, I was a volunteer in 91-95 and my fellow soldiers arranged for me to go to Italy for the PULSE concert, but I refused at the last minute. I was ashamed to go and leave my comrades. But I watched the concert in London twice on TV. The best band in the world.
FINALLY, A Pink Floyd documentary with some new content!! Not just the same stuff in a slightly new order! Thank you for doing a little more research into the bands' history. and coming up with some tracks of music that have not been used over and over for previous "documentaries."
ENOUGH FOR ME TO HIT SUBSCRIBE
I agree. Lots of stuff, interviews and the like, that I’d never seen before.
@@jmad627 Exactly :)
Which stuff is “new”...
@@cbennett196631 WRT "the Syd period" you are correct, they missed off Syd's (and Pink Floyd's) best single! The survivors write the history! In fairness I suppose there is a lot of history to cover.....
As a lifetime Pink Floyd fan I found this documentary to be very unique. Excellent job.
me too
They had the time and the talent back then.
Marijuana is a lot more devastating than LSD. I have usedLSD and psilocybin and
For being a fanmade documentary I think this was one of the best I've ever watched!
Agreed. It's so intelligently made.
The fan made is better than mind control made !
@Dave State-61 no sorry, I used my own personal experience with media and brain washing media at that as well as my own brain power to come to that conclusion.
This is perfection for me. Used to listen to early Floyd everyday. 🌞🌛
Indeed!
Roger describing Syd’s song “Bike” rather sums up the love and fascination of Barrett’s work. He was truly the launching pad!!! The other guys would have never been able continue without the early success and recognition they got from Syd!
Still, they went on as Pink Floyd without him. (You listening, Roger)?
They were a totally different band without him, ( and I AM GLAD they went on and became the New Pink Floyd)!! NOBODY could have predicted they would go on to create the most timeless, enduring music EVER recorded!!!! NOBODY, NEVER, could envision the future popularity of the early Pink Floyd!!
I’ve said as much elsewhere, but I agree that they were on a strong enough path that they could have renamed to “The Floyd” or whatever and given a better nod or acknowledgement that Pink Floyd was Syd’s band that was greatly changed by his omission. They admit that their minds weren’t in that sort of space, not feeling much sympathy for Syd and ultimately just not picking him up anymore, but yeah - I think all of that could have been better handled.
Wow this is actually one of (if not THE) best floyd documentary I’ve seen... It’s very interesting how it mixes audio and visuals in a different more original way, even though it’s material that many of us have already seen. Must have been a lot of work, hope it doesn’t get taken down!
Cheers glad you could enjoy!!and I’m with you on I hope it doesn’t get taken down, it’s holding strong so far though so let’s cross our fingers! more to come in the future. 🍻
71 years old + still learning. Just wonderful. Thanks xxx
First documentary that gave more than a passing mention to the period from More to Meddle. Great work !
It was amazing that they were able to continue so long with low record sales! Nowadays, if you don’t have a 2nd hit right away, the record company will dump you like a dirty diaper! After Dark Side of the Moon, people went out and bought their older albums!
For me, it was after I saw the “Live in Pompeii” movie, I immediately bought Meddle, Ummagumma, and eventually ALL their older albums!
Record companys back then was more concerned in “long term investments”. Some bands made it big at once while others were given 3-4 albums to make the break through.
@@Geezer-yf8hv i remember seeing Live In Pompeii on tv back in the day and wondering who the hell were these guys and their music was so mysterious, confusing and amazing. I was a fan instantly lol
I thought Dave Gilmore couldn't get any hotter til i saw him speaking french - sorry guys , had to comment on that. Great docymentary/ maybe one fo the most proficient reagrding the band''s story and history. great work psych for the children, specially in times like nowdays we must still have stories to tell and share. Thank you. Greetings from Thessaloniki , Greece
Pipers at the gate of dawn was my favorite album..I was about 12 yrs old.I still look back with fond memories tripping to the scarecrow song.
Tripping when you were twelve? Hats off, you’re more hardcore than I!!
Me too , but a late starter , 14 💫
😬
@@paulbangash4317 I was about 12 when I bought the Pipers At The Gates Of Dawn...I was probably 15 when I tripped to the Scarecrow song...it was a blast!
you were tripping at 12 , yeah of course you were.
I didn’t have my first trip until 17, but I also had a job, and made my own money to buy it!! (I have to admit that I later turned my younger brother onto it, and he was only 14! Was that bad)?? IDK, but I did it with him, made sure we were in a safe situation, and we later formed and played in bands together for many years! Good times, good memories!
That video of Roger screaming...holy shit.
Yup, 24:59 pure nightmare fuel
"Careful with that axe, Eugene!'" I was at a party with several buddies, all of us on LSD, when we heard that song for the first time... 2 of my group fled the house, looking a lot like the character in Silent Scream!
The sound man passed away that night.
First time I heard Careful with that Axe, Eugene I thought that that was a synthesizer that made that screaming noise. I was impressed to find out that it was Roger himself
He developed a special technique to do this! You actually make the scream on the inhale, not the exhale. It also helped that Floyd had the best PA Sound system at the time that could capture whispers!
A FINE LOOKING BUNCH OF FELLOWS
Great job on this ... what I most liked is its balanced point of view. While the split between Waters and the rest of the band is acknowledged, it's not the primary focus like it has been with so much coverage of the band since the mid-1980s. The emphasis on Syd and Rick's contributions was appreciated as well.
Man, Roger looked so much like Shelly Duvall back in the early days.
He eventually grew into his cheekbones
Why the long face, Roger? Oh, I forgot you were a HORSE! (Hopefully where it counts, eh)?
Jack, no...
P
Thi.
lmao
Oh jesus
Belle documentation et retranscription de la carrière des Pink Floyd. Dommage qu’on oublie trop souvent de rejouer (re mixés ou non) les morceaux de Syd Barrett lors des concerts actuels. Merci à vous pour ces recherches. Retrouver les années 60 m’a fait rajeunir de 50 ans et retrouver des souvenirs de « jeunes drogue réac des Beaux Arts de Paris » comme le disaient mes parents.😊 I ❤ the Floyd
I had no idea David Gilmour speaks fluent French...craaaaaazy! So cool that you included the whole 2nd half of Saucerful of Secrets from Pompeii. Still my favorite live Pink Floyd performance!
I don't speak French, but what Gilmour was saying sounded pretty damn French to me! All those nuances.
@@NewFalconerRecords He was speaking french, with the accent from France.
I'm from Quebec, and it's the first time i hear him talking french, except for few short salutations at the end of hteir shows in Montreal.
I thought It was overdubbed at first then I seen his lips and mouth moving with the words he was speaking and then I knew he was speaking French, pretty kool!!
Not only that, but explaining how being a "political band" is not good, as all 4 members think very differently. Add to that millions of fans. Floyds music never alienated anyone. It was/is universal and timeless.
These guys weren’t drop outs or street urchins .
This is a fantastic film documentary about the Pink Floyd. I've seen them four times. Thank you.
April 1975 Dark Side of the Moon at Cow Palace SanFrancisco. 1977 Animals Oakland CA, another show in Oakland and I saw The Wall in Los Angeles. ❤😊
I love that you put a Syd Barrett song at the end. Dominoes is a beautiful song.
What a fantastic documentary!! It seems to be so thorough, with a lot of rare footage and superb detail. The fireworks incident, by the way, occurred on July 4th, 1977 at Madison Square Garden in NYC during the Animals tour. The explosion, fortunately, happened above our heads. Nobody was hurt. It could have been deadly if just another second or two had passed. When leaving the venue, I saw a young moron light an M-80 and drop it down the stairwell, crowded with people exiting. I watched it land on the next stair platform, and was able to stop anyone from walking further down the stairs and getting hurt. I still regret letting that moron get away without a lump on his head or worse.
Humans will never change. Show love and rejoice in life
Thank you SO MUCH for letting Celestial Voices play without interruption. One can't hear that beautiful piece of music too many times.
Whoever chose Two Suns In The Sunset as that (almost) final song is a genius. Final Cut is by no means perfect, but there are some songs on there that i really love, and they contain so much beauty and passion.
This may actually be the greatest Documentary Film of Pink Floyd ever created. Simply amazing. I am in awe. Thank you.
Atom Heart Mother is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Anyone else love it?
It was certainly a daring move back then, though it had its moments, i thought it was rather unfocused. I preferred More, Obscured By Clouds and Ummagumma by far. Of course, what came after made them legends
I think we all hold it in a special place in our hearts. Even though the band hates it lol
I always loved Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast
You can hear the greatness forthcoming in it for certain.
Yes it’s a masterpiece
Nick’s drumming sounds so much heavier on the Pompei recordings compared to the studio versions. Love it!
They got the year wrong in the movie
I've always thought Nick doesn't get enough credit as a drummer. He's not what I consider flashy, but he does his job so well that the drum parts just melt away into their recordings. Maybe I'm wrong about this, but I think its to his credit that his drumming isn't front and center on most of their songs. He just does his job and creates the beat and rhythm.
Nick was a beast up until 1972-ish then he really simplified his sound, goes with the music i suppose but people forget how creative he was in the early years.
Ya, he's playing with power and he stands out as much as everyone else in the band
Just what we needed, another pink floyd documentary.
My first album ever was The Wall and i was 10 yrs old and to this day its a favorite album of mine. My father moved to the states in 65 from Manchester UK and met my mother in San Francisco and the rest is history.
Pink Floyd was a memorable part of my upbringing
I don't think they could have become pink Floyd without Syd But I also don't think they could have risen to the heights that they did without David Gilmore
Agreed
AGREED . PINK LIVES IN ALL OF US
David, Roger, (a pox on their stiff necked ego feud), Rick and Nick together are what made the band and the music so perfect. It was a synergy. Syd was Syd but if he hadn't left and been replaced by David we would never have had the brilliance of Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and The Final Cut. That body of work owes little or nothing to Syd except perhaps an essentially willingness to aimlessly jam until something brilliant came out. Without Echos and some of the pieces on Obscured by Clouds we would never have the work that we (or at least I) consider the height of Pink Floyd. Under Syd they were just another psychedelic pop band and they would never have evolved into the band that they became.
Roger wouldn’t agree I’ll bet😆
@@warrenmusselman9173Wish You Were Here had a lot to do with Syd. Even after he was gone, he was still influencing them
Thank god for David!
Thank you for this incredible documentary about this legendary groundbreaking group. Pink Floyd has always been my favorite group. The early years of their music saw the exploratory experimentation of sound. But many tracks were a form of nontraditional 60s pop-rock. Many rock fans forget their early achievements and just focus on their 70s album compilations. This documentary, On Thin Ice, extraordinarily splices rare interviews, music videos and unseen footage. Wow !
Brilliant. I am a serious Floyd phile and this is the first Doc in a long time where I heard things I actually did not know. Truly appreciated. Looking forward to seeing Roger in 2022.
Also I liked hearing Roger talk about the 77 tour and how a lot of the "fans" were just there for the beer. When I saw the "Delecate Sound Of Thunder" tour at the Orange Bowl in Miami, a guy threw up on my shoes.. I saw Roger around the same time on The Pros and Cons tour. Totally different crowd. Those two shows and the crowds at each defined exactly what he was talking about in that interview. It's nice to see that all these years later Waters is finally, and deservedly, getting the crowds Gilmour did with his version of Floyd.
If there was ever an hour and a half well spent, this is it. RIP to all.
RIP?
As someone who was brought up with Pink Floyd's music since the day I came into the world, I appreciate the time n effort you've put into this documentary, thank you!😜💜✌️
I came across this today Jan 2023, this is a fantastic piece of work! Good going down memory lane to remember Pink Floyd and past members who I'll never forget!! Pink Floyd will live in our hearts Forever 💕 💞 ♥️ ❤️ 💖 💓 💕 💞 ♥️ ❤️
Pink Floyd is my favorite band ever. Something about the music and individual members and Syd's mental callapse. They deeply touch me. Just seeing a tribute band brought me to tears
Nick Mason, world's most underrated drummer.
He's only underrated for idiots without a clue.
Nick is vital especially Dark Side.
I'm finding that I like to Floyd's stuff prior to Dark Side of the Moon. I'm getting old.
No, your just becoming cool and groovy.
Meddle and Ummagumma are my favs, in that order.
Not getting old, getting WISE!! 😁😁😁
@@fredkrissman6527 Meddle is phenomenal...no 2 songs sound like the same band! Echoes is a bit self indulgent, but Fearless is a favorite and San Tropez is just indescribable. Dark Side is the money album, but i dig the Wall, Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Animals as much as Syds era...its two totally different bands and i probably like Barrett as much as anything he did with the Floyd, as they say.
My generations music. I grew up with them. I saw The Wall concert in 1980. Floyd is a major part of the soundtrack of my life. This is a great Doc that makes me kind of sad and reminiscent about an era of music that will never be duplicated.
Bob Klose is a humble and Brillant man, hes words were spot on and shows what kinda guy he is. Amazing Job on this Doc, of one of the greatest Bands ever.
Wow...This is unbelievably brilliant. So many bits and pieces I hadn't seen or heard all knitted together so fluently. Fine work, what a band.
The best pink Floyd doco ever. Well done.
Bob Klose is my mates dad, he lives in a very big house. I used to put funk and hip hop bands on at a local club, Bob used to perform for the house band - The Muthafunk allstars. Im the scratch DJ for the band Senser, , I would join in with The Muthafunk allstars, scratching over stuff that Bob was doing, we would also have rappers joining in and jamming with Bob,,,pretty hip for an old blues guy
I remember senser . Jim abbiss was at the power plant , where I worked often. He was on a number of tbe sessions I did.
I see tbe guitarist Bob round grove sometimes , though I only know him to say hello to. I liked that senser album when it came out💫
I thought I knew everything about Floyd but I learnt so much watching this, wonderfully telling the story of the band chronologically, wonderfully edited. I particuarly loved how you sometimes allowed certain tracks to play out more or less in full, fantastic work! RIP Rick and Syd
Good lord, that was brilliant. I nearly didn't bother when it came up in the suggested videos, but I was lured by the Floyd, and I must say, you've done an incredible job here.
I've not seen a documentary - official or otherwise - on the band that comes close to this. Even as a huge fan, there's footage I've never seen before in this.
Well done. And thank you very much.
I’ve watched several interviews and documentaries on Pink Floyd, and this particular documentary is far superior than the rest. Exceptional work! You made a fan proud!
Thanks Dahli, brilliant research. And it was fitting for Pink Floyd's best song to end it off...Set the controls for the heart of the sun!
Wow. At 1:16:00, the footage from the Animals tour in Cincinnati. I was there, 8th row right in the center, so I'm one of those people in the video. Still the best concert I've ever seen!
LUCKY!!!!
This is one of, if not the only legit documentaries on pink Floyd out there for us to see. Cheers
Come on, there are tons of Floyd documentaries, most of them pretty excellent and provided the material for this one.
@@mikearchibald744 I agree with You. I've seen all of these interviews excerpts here from other documentaries, and they weren't scuffed like here .
Very moving listening to David Gilmour answering questions in French at an interview!
I was not expecting that at all!
This documentary is amazing. In my opinion, it is the best documentary available regarding the Floyd. I can't believe how sad I got just after the section on The Final Cut. Thank you for creating this. It could not have been easy. If anyone is looking to get introduced to the Floyd as a band - watching this would be my recommendation.
Terrific viewing and particularly enjoyed the intelligent insights each from each of the band members and rare footage of the group. Great tribute to a monumental band. Thank you so much to Psych For The Children for this doco.
This has a lot of stuff I haven't seen so thanks for the time it must have taken. I've always been a little obsessed with pink floyd, and identified personally with Syd, as I'm sure anyone who struggles with mental health or drug issues could relate to. This has made my day significantly better and I hope more fans get to see it as it's very well put together.
Absolutely agree and relate to the story of Syd. I think that there is astounding beauty in the way everything works out. I think Pink Floyd started a movement that is only now is beginning to take place this energy has brewed and sat almost surpressed. Waiting for us to find it.
I don’t exactly relate to the drug element of things but i feel like we would’ve at least gotten along. I cant say for sure but id say we’re quite similar people.
Great work! This documentary shows SO much footage of Pink Floyd I haven't seen before. Fans know what fans want to see and hear....something new from something old, not always seen and not always told. THANKS!
Best Doc. on the subject ever. Thank you. I heard DOS in 73 , @ 13 I was blown away, but they were an album band not getting much air play on any stations I could get..maybe money...but even then only slightly, I know Dark side is praised as the break album but I would say The Wall was the big FM break out suddenly everyone is a Floyd fan. As far as Syd vs Roger floyd , Roger was a brilliant lyricist and word master who made you think . And David was not known as the guitar god he is today, but every one knew who Jimmy and Eric were. he wasn't as recognized early to mid 70's { he should have been, brilliant playing} . And Syd had great lyrics but its apples and oranges in context.
I heard DOS in 73 so the only place to get more floyd was to go backwards. Roger is obviously proud to be playing to 4000 people while Led Zepplin was filling stadiums and all over FM radio. Floyd was the most underrated band of their time b4 The Wall. then the masses went backwards.They are the best band ever to me.
This is really well done. I've seen many documentaries about the band and there was content here I had never seen. Great job!
I can’t believe I lived 18 yrs before I heard ‘Bike’...changed my life
I know, listening to The Piper at the Gates of Dawn for the first Time Is a one in a lifetime experience
All of these songs just recently found me also. We all riding this wave. Energy and the universe ride on
i've been a floyd fan for over forty years and this is,by far,the most comprehensive doco i've seen yet. many thanks my good man.
Great documentary here (possibly) the best I have ever seen.
Your use of available media involving the band is amazing and with some great depth.
Long time PF fan here. Thank you for your work on this!
Very well done. I've watched just about every documentary, interview, video or radio interview. This is the best one. Touching on every album. I really like that you guys addressed Obscured , Animals and The Final Cut. Great work.
Clearly a labor of love ! This was truly enjoyable and well done. Great editing and mining of so many interesting nuggets of the Band's journey. Kudos to the creator !
This is just fantastic! If this was out on DVD I would definitely buy it.
Great compilation of footage and interviews.
There is so much great footage here that I am surprised I have never seen before! Nice job compiling this and the stories behind it. Kudos!!
I've been a fan since late 60s, vinyl! Thanks for this doc, and as others have said, lots included that I've not seen before. Well done.
I'm about 45 minutes into this documentary right now, and I just wanted to say that it's fantastic. I scrolled down through the comments and saw that you produced this on your phone...wow! Thank you so much for putting this together 😎
Thank you so much for the making and make it public on YT. For me, as a teenager, becoming familiar with PF was a life chanching event which up until today (I'm 59 yo now) has had an impact.
This was an amazingly well done documentary. Thank you so much for your time in doing this. The flow was great.
¡Muchas gracias por este espléndido compilado!, reseña y registros q resumen en esta hora y media una parte de la que es aún una banda de referencia para mi y miles de fans.... Presente desde mi juventud y resignificada en este momento como punto alto de la experiencia musical que sigue estando entre mis favoritas
Outstanding work by Dahli Thomson !! Wonderful choices of clips along with the rhythm of mood and intensities in editing is professional yet refreshing! 🎥🎬🎵

So much content I have never seen before! I love Pink Floyd & Syd Barrett, and have watched everything I can get my hands on about the band. This has to be the best documentary I've seen! Thank you
Thank you guys for the documentary .. 🤟🏽
Great work! I would watch any documentary you made. You clearly love music, you chose it so well here.
Thank you for releasing well put together great content on what I’m sure is most of our favorite bands of all time. It was an awesome documentary and I can’t tell ya how much I enjoyed it!!
Excellent Floyd doc. So much rare footage and interviews. This is quite a nice piece. Good job
An excellent and admirable piece of work. For someone who grew up listening to Pink Floyd and seeing them perform live, this documentary really provides an insightful look into their history.
Lots of material here I've never seen - Quite impressive vid! Every fan SHOULD watch this.
This has been in my recommendations for a couple weeks now, I honestly didn't think much of it at first. And then, I finally clicked on it. Best decision ever. This is awesome.
You did a fantastic job putting this together! It was a great escape to be entertained watching one of my favorite bands. I loved the whole movie, never got bored, and the music you chose was fabulous! I'm sure the band would approve!! Thanks for making this film :)
This should be the official documentary of the band. I've seen most all of the professionally produced docs on them and this by far is the best and it's fan made too! You did an amazing job wit this. Thank you!
Hey greatly appreciated friend, I have to give major props to John Edginton for allowing this to stay up. And Pink Floyd, I honestly just went out on a limb one day super bored and put this together and the feedback has just been absolutely overwhelming. Without all your kind words it would not be here. Thanks again ❤️ Psych.
A cambridge light illuminated London
"Outta sight" said all who saw him...
Then they heard him play....
and around the world
To this very day
His diamond light shines on
For us all to bask in.
Thanks Syd

An amazingly well-curated documentary that seems to swirl ,float & flow across time & space ; much like artistry of the most unique & brilliant bunch of blokes ever heard
Very complete picture of the band. Enjoyed muchly. Thank you.
Great documentary with lots of background and interesting footage. Enjoyed it - cheers !
Really interesting collage of Floyd history. Fascinating to see the Obscured by Cloud recording doc.
10/10. Watched from start to finish with no ads. Amazing work
Awesome work exactly what I was looking for. I watched this all for Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here. My favorite albums...period. Shine on You Crazy Diamond!
