just make up your own mean lyrics about ronald reagan!
As someone born in the early 70s, it's funny to go back and listen to Animals.
"Hey, you, JIMMY CARTER. Ha ha, charade you are…" and to think the punk rockers didn't like this band.

The punk rockers were lying, they ruddy loved "Animals"

i thought Pink Floyd was a punk band when i was little because of the artwork for The Wall and the song "Another Brick in the Wall" which was the only Pink Floyd song I'd ever heard

(my friends older bro had a silkscreen Wall banner the type you'd get at county fairs)
A woman in overalls sits inside a wooden booth, pulling tapers down on a cherry-red candle with a ringed hook. A paper plate with a funnel cake sits on a barrel beside her while a silkscreen banner depicting a screaming face coming through a brick wall billows in the breeze on the side.

these were the best. do they still do this? there should be a thread or website commemorating rock stuff from fairs.

Feel like pointing out that Waters' concert film of The Wall tour premiered last month, looking forward to that a lot more than I am to hearing this Gilmour snoozefest

I wanted to get lost in the dream but I was listening on spotify & so every couple of songs I'd get BALKSHDGLSDHG listen to the new Marianne Faithfull album AFVOGUHSFHDG which kinda broke the vibe (I should listen to the new Marianne Faithfull album though)

So, is the extra 33 minutes or whatever that's on the deluxe Blu-Ray or DVD version worth, like, double the price? Anyone?

you get them rocking out to a song that rips the keyboard line from "Sex Farm".

'endless river' > "echoes" [because there's no lame waters "funk" breakdown]

The funk breakdown is the best part!
(at least, on the Pompeii version -- easily one of my favorite Floyd moments)

i kinda dig this stuff, i think it's better if you think of it as organic, live instrument ambient music w/o the expectations of a "rock band"
now almost interested in listening to something by Pink Floyd apart from those two early-70s BBC shows with the Peel intros

This new one works for me more than anything they released since, well, Animals but it also confirms that Pink Floyd ruled only when they were a more democratic band. PF as a pseudo-solo vehicle, whether it be the Barrett, Waters or Gilmour version, just sounds incomplete in comparison.
― doug watson, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:19 (nine years ago) link
What you say about Waters or Gilmour makes sense, they complimented each other. What you're saying about Barrett is INSANE. Piper at the Gates of Dawn doesn't rule????
― dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:33 (nine years ago) link
Barrett Floyd was more democratic than Waters or (especially) Gilmour Floyd (mainly because Gilmour Floyd, at least on AMLOR, had no other Floyd members).
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:55 (nine years ago) link
Barrett Floyd also featured songs written by Waters and Wright, and sung by them! And is also totally faultless.
― dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 18:29 (nine years ago) link
Okay, you're right, Barrett Floyd isn't the same situation as with the Waters and Gilmour Floyds. But I've never really warmed to the Piper era (except for Astronomy Domine and See Emily Play) so nope, it doesn't rule for me.

I'll say it again, because I played it again in the car:

You need this.
This is the reimagined second album with Syd. Side 1 is perfect, side 2 loses it a little but is still great.

Funnily enough, I jut GIs'd that pic, and there's the next one taken just after.
So I can relate that at least one of them is thinking "I've had enough, I'm getting in the pool"

So would it be unkind to say that some of the new one sounds like commissioned music for one of those Pink Floyd Under Review DVDs?
Still liking it better than The Division Bell so far tho'.

If you haven't done so already, you need to communicate this to Mr. Yankovic post haste.
