  • 100% guys. Was this a studio recording? It is very very good.

  • @zzebowa Recorded in my home. By the way, there's only one guy.

  • holly shit, this is fucking awesome! Thank you! Great work!!

  • pure quality

  • good but where the fuck is the organ??!?!?!?!?!

  • WOW! This is a fantastic cover. Great work.

  • y el teclado ?  pero esta genial :)

  • Guess my only complaint being that you us "Pink Floyd" in the title, rather than The Primrose League. Other than that, kudos to you for an awesome cover of a great Syd Barrett tune. Two thumbs up.

  • Comment removed

  • THIS IS REALLY COOL. COMPLIMENTS

  • yes! you guys actually pulled it off nicely.

  • eso esta genial!!!!!! i like it

  • Complimenti ! Davvero !!!!

  • Made a decent fist of that chaps. Good stuff.

  • Now THAT is an excellent cover of a great song.

  • absolutely fuckin blindin cover,loving the drummers work

  • seems sped up, yet cool

  • Love it!

  • that was great, i feel like i want to hear some deep old fashioned cavernous reverb in there somewhere..only the drum sound wasn't doing it for me,too bright, but great playing..lovely little snare intro's. Really great voice, quintessentially English. Clever lad

  • @Lumenbrother Indeed ,it misses the scratch & thunder of the original ,yet still has a stylish charm of it's own.

    It says something about the quality here; covering a Barrett song, and coming out unscaved..

    I keep coming back to this.

  • el mejor cover de este tema

  • im such a fan of syd since EVER!

    i really like this! )

    super bueno*

  • Interesting, really interesting ) Thanks guys! )

  • @VegaVelecka - thanks. This video is all the work of one man... one incredibly handsome, modest man.

  • Muy bueno!!!!

  • Very VERY good guys, my congrats to all of you. Coming from a die hard pink floyd fan, ( and I'm usually very harsh on people that do Floyd covers)  xD

  • VERY good with a really clear, cohesive and professional sound characterised by simplicity.I like the Byrds sound and the drums are great

  • i thought it was a different version done by floyd until i read the comments..good job

  • Wow, 10/10. This is immense! A thumb up for this for sure and the second one on standby to stick in the eye of any git that doesn't like it ;)

  • quite simply an excellent rendition of this classic tune !!! superb guys, you should be very very proud !!! i would be !!!!!

  • Dobre...

  • il mio amore d infanzia eh tutt ora.....bellissimo oltre che bravo

  • you would have benefited from a delay pedal

  • I dig it man superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Great job,all one musician or a ful band,good version!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • omg that was great, you rock!

  • Bueno!.. pero le quitaron el alma a la cancion.

  • wow you did a real nice job with this one! really brought out the groove

  • WOW. Excellent job.

  • this is superbbbbb

  • the greatest cover ever!!!

  • Who is playing the bass? I only see guitar - drums and vocals?

  • You've nailed it !

  • ...have 2 agree with all above,..great sound,..great cover of a great song!!!!..keep up the great work guys!! :)

  • This is the first Barrett cover I've heard and really, really liked. Great work, guys.

  • @Adominae It's by Pink Floyd, it's not a Barret cover.

  • @bernardmmarx It's a band playing a Syd Barrett song, therefore, it's a cover. And a good one, I might add. Technically, it's a Syd Barrett written song, and the original was played by him and his backing band, Pink Floyd.

  • @Adominae

    I agree at all. This is also for me the only original reinterpetration of Syd music (excuse my horrible english, I am from Italy :-)

  • @ayrtonthemagic

    only one little thing: around 1:37 there's a loss in the bassline :) Perfect work however!

  • @Adominae

    Check out Astronomy Domine by The Atomic Bitchwax.

  • Spot on!

  • This is really excellent! I used to do this song in a band and it was one of our favorites. Well done on this one!

  • great job! =D

  • GREAT COVER of a very great song!!

  • very well done!

  • Excellent !

  • that was awesome, covers usually butcher songs, you did it perfectly.

  • Not too bad but would of course sound better had the keyboard effects been included.

  • you're great!!!I love this really lucifer sam is one of my favourite song!!!this is my world!!!!!!!Thank you really..

  • OMG... Its like like i was right next to Syd Barrett himself and the rest!!! O_O

  • 5555555555555555555555555

  • Comment removed

  • I totally agree with REITHESAGE!. About 90% covers I have seen were accidetal but you guys are very good!!keep on rockin

  • Comment removed

  • When I saw this, I thought it would be another shitty pink floyd cover band.

    I'm glad I saw it all the way through. This is one of the only good covers I've heard. Keep up the good work!

  • Very Good

  • Nice one,,been a floyd fan since the 70s but this is pretty good actually.Hasnt quite got that hard to put your finger brillance/drive that pink floyd always seemed to do so well, but its still a good cover.

  • excellent job guys.. good cover this song reinvented lively after 42 long years

  • "guys" haha.

  • one of the few great PF covers

  • nice TELE!! GAHHH i love them in black

  • haw...Im melting!

  • ok let me start by saying not bad, deff better than some others ive seen for this song. but its a good interpretation. having said that, you are in no way close or better than syd, not that you claimed it, but these other commentors are incredibly OFF. i think you are only begining to grasp syds playing. even though you skipped syds, your solo in the song was pretty good; very steady, bouncy, and rythmic.

  • kool cover. sick bass line dude lol

  • Good !!!

  • groovy

  • bravi.onore a syd

  • what's that guitar behind him

  • Siete fortissimi!!

    Complimenti.

  • very cool!

  • that was great!!

  • Excellent Sydfloyd cover!!!! KUDOS!!! captured the perfect Syd slurry guitar technique!

  • I liked it very much, but where´s the bass?

  • Lucifer Sam is the left side! Hahaha. Crazy cat. Nice cover, but I disagree with the comment you one upped Syd and the boys. I don't know why - it's something I can't explain....

  • Good cover, thanks for sharing this to us all.

  • great cover!

  • this is really really good.

  • thats kind of the point dude

  • No disrespect to Syd, but you've really one-upped the Madcap on this one. Brilliant.

  • epsilon

  • Great stuff - I really enjoyed this and the sound was quite authentic.

  • It does rock & roll! A good job.

  • good cover long live syd and rick

  • I generally hate bands doing Pink Floyd covers but this rocks.

  • very nice, keep it up

  • I had forgotten this one, you take it to the surface by a kind manner ; )

    ps : I'am french, maybe my vocabulary mays seems strange : )

  • Good cover but I miss the keyboard ...

  • Nice job.

    I love the sound of your drum kit.

  • really great cover guys

    xxx

  • oh man, this is a GREAT cover. I'd love to do stuff like this, but I don't really have the gear.

    great job man, it sounds awesome. I think the guitars may sound even better.

  • you couldve done better but not too bad. you need to work on the solo man.

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaa que buen cover!!

    tocan muy bien los felicito

    SYD BARRETT TE AMO!!

    saludos desde Mexico

  • haha love the "stupid split-screen effect"

  • hey guys i'm from mexico soon i'll be moving to uk may i join your band? XD XD love this song and your smiths covers are fantastic

    oskr

  • love the guitars, i've got a rickenbacker 330 and an american telecaster too.

  • amazing...

  • very nice, fairly tight.

    Noticed a few hiccups with the vocals but well done.

  • Can u actually hear ur guitar and drums? If so it was perfect

  • Very nice! I'm looking into getting a telecaster custom like yours and im curious, what do you think of it?

  • lol, I see where james bond theme originated!

  • Bel lavoro

  • Bel lavoro

  • Syd loves the Fender Telecaser . So what ?

  • Nice job.

  • Terrific version and that would be hard to achieve!

    Excerpt from interview with Syd.

    Q: Some of your songs seem rather obscure - like Chapter 24 on Piper.

    SB: Chapter 24...that was from I Ching, there was someone around who was very into that, most of the words came straight off that. Lucifer Sam was another one - it didn't mean much to me at the time, but then three or four months later it came to mean a lot.

  • You've got the same guitar as Barrett had!

  • You guys can play!

  • This video seems to be the one that convinces people that I'm more than one guy!

  • Oh sorry man... lol That's even better, actually, all this by yourself! Keep it up, good job!

  • I think its a very good version;the vocal nuances are almost pitch perfect and I'm a Radio Jock who specialized in all things Floydian.

  • man this is better sounding (probly cause not on lp) but hats off to you guys

  • This cover sounds even better than the real mc coy!, I dare to say!. But never heard about this group, though. All the stars in heaven for this video and thank for posting it.

  • o.O

  • this is fucking great, dudes!!!

  • excellent

  • Excellent cover ! 5 *'s

  • Good stuff.

  • Fucking great men

  • fucking great version of one of my fav songs - :tips hat: - :offers sugar cube:

  • Excellent version. The drum sounds amazing!

  • Great job! I really liked the Rickenbacker 360/12. I wonder what this song would have sounded like if The Byrds had done it in the Gene Clark era.

  • very cool, good job guys

  • This is clean guys..it can play...

  • nice! sounds killer on a 12 string.

  • do some hitchcock/soft boys next!

  • what chords are you playing under the main riff? It sounds great!

  • nice job!

  • thanks. I liked it. Keep up the good work!

  • FUCKING GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    well done dudes.

  • Drums sound wicked on this. Good version!

  • wow, quite good... now onto the best song of the album: pow r. toc h. :p

  • Hey, very good version - only criticism is that it's a bit tooooo polished!

    Well done though.

  • fantastic. one of the coolest floyd songs done right. sweet choice going with the rick 12. love the vocals

  • If only Roger could play bass like that!! that is way too melodic - sounds great!!

  • Excelente!!!!!

  • this is actually quite good. well done with this syd tune.

  • excellent version.

  • No bass? Are you kidding? Can't you hear that great bass sound? Even though we can't see it, the guy did play the bass on it!

  • good ploy

    ten thousand hits

    singer too gallagher like

    but a great version lads,,

    drums should be more drowsy !!

  • Those drums sound sweet! Sorry but I think Rog's bass would make this sound even better! Great cover!

    Regards

  • good, but no bass! Waters' bass line makes the song.

  • Sounds like the Byrds trying to play Pink Floyd!! Sid used a Telecaster

  • syd barrett used an esquire, they are telecaster bodies with one pickup

  • well tha black guitar is an fender telecaster!

  • not as siam

  • CÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓL

    Bit more reverb though

  • Great sound! Bravi!

  • AMAZING

  • GOOD JOB!

  • renew,historical and...MITHIC!

  • excellent cover...shows how strange the song was really was note the changes in the beat right in the middle
