  • Thats David Gilmour..smh

  • EL NO ES SID BARRETT!!

  • that i sdave gilmour singing ... it's not barret

  • @AGOSTINO8484 its still good

  • syd barret was the musision who translated lsd in music

  • yeah this after they betrayed syd!

  • Where's Syd?

  • @sststffsbpfjd he's dead.

  • @larissamoras Where's Syd?- is not a question but a complaint.

    Qué sarcástica!

  • fuck.they played this in france.year 1968.and there wasn't any Syd Barrett.i'm from poland and i see that people from other countries don't know floyd so good as i know...

  • plain and simple i love PINK FLOYD

  • who the fuck is sid barret? I know only a genius called syd barrett...

  • YES IS DAVID GILMOUR PLAY GUITAR

  • *Syd Barrett, not Sid Barret. And that's David Gilmour.

  • @LennonMoonPlant but the guy who inspired syd's nickname in fact is SID barret

  • Nice footage, obviously NOT Syd Barrett anywhere in it though. Looks like around 1970, them just playing an oldie that was still a part of their set.

  • You do know "sid barret" is actually "Syd Barrett?"

  • is David Gllmour singing a song of Syd, probably just replaced him

  • @MrDailymirror  you wish he was gay!

  • oh boy... no syd guy, you may want to change the title.

  • Forse è vero, pensavo d'intendermi ma sbagliavo. Non riuscivo a fissare una data per un'esibizione come questa. Alla fine, testo di Glenn Powey alla mano, mi sono sentito d'ipotizzare il 22 dicembre 1967 ad un festival con altri gruppi psico-uderground, all' Olympia Exhibition Hall di Londra, e sraebbe stata l'ultima esibizione di Barrett (però sembra troppo in forma), a parte il lampo della breve formazione a cinque. La soluzione sta: non Barrett ma Gilmour !

  • @PaoloFrumento

    Londra ? Alla fine il presentatore parla in francese , o almeno mi sembra.

  • oohh richard :') oooh what a beautifull song

  • well...syd showing up on stage with no strings on his guitar then staring blankly into space didnt help the floyd out any. what would you do? you would bring in another musician who could fill the void. i'd say, looking back historically that they made the right choice.

  • go die in a hole you uninformed fucking moron.

  • i bet daVE hated doing syds songs

  • @Kuhlyedascope69 true!

    

  • Not Syd! 'Tis Gilmour.... and he's wreckin the whole friggin thing!

  • I love the enthusiasm in David's voice

  • its not barrett! gilmou`s and all the pink floyds trying to imitate syd`s songs! ahahahajajaa

  • @puertaespacial your english sucks balls

  • If this were a Syd video it would be the best quality Syd and Floyd video I've ever seen. Seems they started filming a lot more right after Syd left. Its really really sad watching this without Syd. Kind of disgusting, I can't really view it as 'the show must go on' its more Waters not trying to go back to architectural school and doing everything he could to make sure no one messed up his career, which I get, especially as a lazy person. This is just sad though. And yeah, its Syd, come now.

  • if you don`t wanna correct the title, at least correct the name of SYD! it`s not SID!!!

  • I wondered how Syd's hair got so long so fast--it is dave!!

  • wrong this is wrong! gilmour not barrett

  • please change title, this is not SYD its DAVID already

  • love it, is there more footage of this concert

  • that's not SYD Barrett, it's Gilmour

  • sYd

  • For one, this is David Gilmour as others have pointed out, but you ALSO spelled SYD wrong. It's spelled with a "y".

    YOU SHAME THE PSYCHEDELIC 60'S! >:(

  • Extraordinary and compelling viewing. Thank you for the post!

  • Niguem falou que é o Syd que esta cantando seus F...

  • Syd wasn't in this...

  • hm... so cheap copy of Syd

  • syd!?? hahah is david!

    I WISH WE HAVE MORE VIDEOS OF SYD PLAYING LIVE! =(

  • It SYD not SID...learn his name..and he is LONG departed from THE FLOYD--David Gilmour is here in France singing oneof Syd's songs..not as well as SYD would have....I think that is why Dave stopped singing Syd songs and began concentrating on his own..which also turned out to be GENIUS..it is amazing how so many Superb musicians and minds were once known as PINK FLOYD

  • donde mierda esta barret?

  • um its sYd barrett... js.. and thats gilmour. wow.

  • that's Flaming and Gilmour's voice looks very similar with Syd's.

  • Early on, Gilmore would fill in when Barret was not able to perform

  • It's DG singing, sure - but he sounds So Much like Syd - he's obviously doing the song just like him, prob'ly 'cos this was when he was showing up/not showing up. Check DVD the Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett Story - leaving town for a gig, they just decided to Not pick him up, and that was about it, gig-wise.

  • Gilmour does sound great. Wright's playing is mesmerizing.

  • David sings this quite well here. Not as good as with Syd but a good performance

  • Sorry to have to "echo" all the previous statements, but that is David Gilmour.

  • I still think it's funny that the video is labeled as Syd Barrett....

  • Oh my god. I can't believe the discussion of wether this is Syd or David still rages on. For the last time this is DAVID GILMOUR singing and playing. NOT Syd!

    Show: Tous en Scene TV special, Paris, France October 31. 1968.

    Check the hair, the voice, his big lips and the fact that he;s playing a freaking stratocaster i.s.o. Syd telecaster!!!

    And no, Syd was NOT present in the audience. That was (or was supposed to, since not confirmed) a show in England!

    Great song though!

  • I have to say thats david gilmore singing this song.

  • Nice vid but its dave not syd, numb nuts!

  • Holy cow! Reminds me of those spooky eyeballs on the gasoline trucks.

    What happened to that crazy guy making those 311 calls?

    Hold on... I got a big crusty morgellon I gotta pick outta my nostril.

  • ha really not davids style of singing or playing

  • read the biography: Syd was there, in the audience, they say in the first row

    it's one of the very first Floyd gigs without him, that's why Gilmour is singing this material

  • Its a cool version for a collection...

  • It's Gilmour. Syd was not there.

  • lovely version of a great Roger Barret song song . Sid was never in the band silly .

  • Dude..its SYD with a Y and YEAH it makes a difference!@

  • This is great footage

  • Still, I guess you get more hits if you put "sid barret" in the title.

  • That is, without a doubt, Syd Barrett's childhood friend and replacement Mr David Gilmour.

  • The French show is a famous video, and well known to be one of the only videos freely available of Flaming live. However this is David Gilmour, not Syd. It's the transition period of Dave doing the Saucerful of Secrets work. He's even using his white Strat.

  • Syd the original functionally insane.

  • @oneofspades Other than he wasn't "functional"

  • Of course it's Gilmour, anyone with eyes and half an ear can see. Syd's not even lurking in the shadows. Still good though!

  • esse cara ai da guitarra é david gilmour eu acho que esse cara tomou umas bandinhas de ácido!!

  • ...é o Gilmour!!

  • Outro erro grotesco, esse cara é o David Gilmore e não Syd Barret, o animal que postou o video não entende nada de Pink Floyd.

  • Watched it again and you're right, it is Gilmore in the viddy. He's doing a VERY faithful imitation of Syd. And rightly so; It's difficult to imagine anyone but Syd singing one of his songs. I stand (even tho' I'm sitting dowm) corrected.

  • there is no syd in this footage! David Guilmore is singing

  • Sorry, That's absolute BOLLOCKS. If you can't tell Syd's Voice and Vocal Style from just about anyone you've ever heard then you've got tin ears. No disrespect!........That is NOT Gilmore singing.

  • Gilmour singing.......

  • te equivocaste el del video es david gilmour no syd barret

  • Video interessante..

  • this isn't the voice of syd!!!!

  • hahahahahahahahahaha

  • il cantante non è Syd Barrett ma è David Gilmour....

  • si infatti ahah!

  • Not syd at all

  • Not Syd, but very cool clip. Floyd in transition.

  • i was just about to say that's dave gilmour lool.

  • Not Syd Barret, is David Gilmour.

  • @guitarristaspyos no shit, and they say the Floyd didn't ape Syd or follow the fucking blueprint he created for the band to follow? My ass, the cunts. How did they sleep at night? pretty well after ripping Syd off and singing all about him on 'Darkside' I suppose. That surely made them all millionaires. Dispicable.

  • @DaveS12382 I've never heard anyone say that Floyd "didn't ape Syd or follow the blueprint he created for the band to follow." The band themselves admit it, it was only over time the the Gilmour based Floyd slowly changed their style...

  • No syd Barrett in this video. It's David Gilmour singing!!!!

  • @ilvecchio21 - And being pretty convincing to boot!

  • @ilvecchio21 And Dave flubbed the lyrics. Must've been one of the times where they stopped picking Syd up for their shows.

  • HEY THATS DAVEY GILMOUR

  • yeah that was established eight + comments ago that that's Gilmour

  • Yeah, it's not Syd then 3 and 3/4 comments later?

  • WTF!!!!!

  • yeah that's definitely David Gilmour, not Syd Barrett. Syd was long gone by 1970

  • No, it's Daiv Gilmore

  • Its SYD not SID MTRFCKR!

  • his body and face too!

  • yep I confirm, that's gilmour's voice

  • aww david is soo adorable it must been hard for him taking syds place coz they were realy good friends

  • That's Gilmour.

  • the chin is Syd's, but the nose is David's....wow what's goin' on!!

  • can someone translate Jukebox's statement please?

  • you can down on him all you want gilmour but in the end your singing syds songs..

  • have a closer look at the guy who's singing: this chin and nose are Dave's not Syd's )) + the voice is different

    good vid anyway

  • The song doesn't sound wrong, they pretty much nail it..the only difference is Syd's not there and Gilmour is....he shoulda said Syd Barrett Song live

  • Certainly not Syd's nose but Gilmour's.

    I like this footage, but the next time it's better to find out who and when.

  • when did Syd become David Gilmour? so that means he's still alive!!

  • Si se la rifaba el David en las rolas de Syd, bandota Pink Floyd

  • è Gilmour !!! no Barrett cambiate la scritta please ;)

  • that's "flaming" from the piper at the gates..awesome

  • lol that's david not syd ..

  • Fake...

  • that's daiv gilmour, not sid

  • this is such a barrett song I cant believe he even tried to sing it.

    no disrespect but barretts style has to have a certain thing that david couldnt give.

  • Syd's behaviour had become erratic. They did the best they could with the songs they had written. I agree that it sounds wrong but I think they probably couldn't help it.

  • fake. No syd barret here

  • Esse não é o Syd Barrett eles ja tinhão expulsado o cara

  • this is no Syd Barret is Dave, good song, love the video

  • I like the rougher quality of this version; Dave's voice has a nice grit to it.

  • Syd asked David to join the group as a friend . It's a shame he couldn't make this gig and all the others . That's all there is to it.

  • @witchever99 Syd did not "ask David to join."

  • This isn't syd...this is Gilmour

  • grande syd, grande syd...

  • i love both era's of pink floyd equally but its almost like they should have changed their name after the departure of syd. Essentially they're almost an entirely different band in sound and aesthetic. god bless the pink floyd

  • too bad syd wasnt there

  • Gotta love the organ in those early songs!

  • great stuff man! R.I.P SYD

  • This was what Dave was asked to do Syd was to wasted to do live shows

  • syd wannabe FUCK THAT!!!

  • that retard , that David not Syd

  • gilmour doesn't suck. is just not the creative diamond that syd was... and Syd isn't in this video

  • magari fosse syd.....bellissimo filmato, ma è gilmour

  • Comment removed

  • Gilmours's stability or Barrett's creativity? they're both great! this is Gimour here.

  • Lol. That's David Gilmour.

  • This documents a painful "transitional" period for the Floyd. Gilmour should not be faulted - he is just doing what the band asked of him and what the crowd expected to hear.

    Interesting to watch though...

  • not syd....

  • Gilmour sucks

  • shut your hater'mouth

  • The band look well into this. Gilmour looks like he doesnt get the song at all. Its like there playing it for the sake of it! the genius of Syd should of been left well alone when he was no longer in the band.

  • please note is david gilmour on stage...

  • I like your answer.

  • if you don't reconize Dave, you have a problem

  • thats David Gilmour singing

  • Oh yep it is David Gilmour it just looked like black hair plus hes singing a song from Piper thats why he sounds like Barret

  • Too much i wont touch you be than i might... hahaha i can realate to that . Syd Barret is so cool and creative,has any one ever seen the inside picture to mad cap laughs the inside of the album,trippiest picture iv ever seen theres like a baby in the corner yea that one so trippy

  • Ah...this is obviously Syd when he was going through his famous 'looking and sounding like David Gilmour' period.

  • Yeah. That was an awful period for Dave...

  • Yep.thats Dave..and its SYD not SID.

    Still good though.

  • It's Gilmour. The hair is black because of the angle of the camera and the light, that's it.

  • that is so david. you can tell by his angular chin and features.

  • That's not Syd, it's Dave G - listen to his voice. Could even see without looking at the pic!!

  • It's SYD not sid

  • i have the whole clip from that show in better quality, its gilmour.

  • yeah... still a good clip, never heard a live version of that song

  • fool. even without watching it, this can't be barrett... and friends called him "Syd" you gotta change that headline or i go insane.

  • that's dave not syd obviously you don't know any better you can't even spell SYD you retart not S I D!!fucking moron

  • it's david but thanks great video anyway i love gilmour

  • its syd barrett.

    listen to the difference in voices.

    see the black curly hair? its syd barrett

  • That isn't Syd. It's Dave, from the period before they worked out where to go with the band's sound. This track appears on the 'Dark Side of Radio City' bootleg. Dave is trying to sound like Syd here; they kept some of Syd's tunes in the set list because they didn't have much to play without them. I can see why you think it's Syd, but it isn't. All his appearances on video are well documented, and this isn't one of them. He does look quite Syd-ish, though. Also, he's playing a Strat, not a Tele.

  • your wrong my friend he is david

  • That is not Syd.

  • UNIQUE FOOTAGE!

  • are you blind!?! is david gilmoure.the magic is the syd the most big.

  • Can't anyone see? It's not Syd it's David! But shortly after he left I think, haha.

  • sid?? you big asshole at least spell it correct syd. not sid then.its gilmour singing this song in this video you dumb bastard

  • Just after they axed poor Syd.. Ah, but at least poor Gilmour has the grace to look sick about it..The rest of the band are grooving away like syd never existed

  • Gilmour!!!!!!

  • Yes :)

  • This is obv not Syd Barrett but is defo David Gilmour. Still a good rare Floyd video though!!!
