I dig it so many of my fave singers & song writers are all (like me) cat lovers who either write entertaining songs about cats (Syd), and/or are on record as being cat people & even impersonate cats with meows, purrs, or screeches in their songs! e.g. "Perfume": Hope Sandoval [withe the JAMC]; "Catwalk": Siouxsie Sioux; "Middle of the Road": Chrissie Hynde [The Pretenders].
I say a house is not a home without a few resident domestic midget "lions", "tigers", "cougars",or "panthers" around!
There's Pink Floyd, and then there's Pink Floyd. Amazing how a band has a name which has equally strong associations with psychedelia, epic prog-rock odysseys and sinister 60's pop like this. How many more different bases can an ensemble cover and excel at all of them?
i know that the floyd's cambridge friend nigel lesmoire-gordon was taking a lot of film footage of them around this time. it is he who filmed 'syds last trip'.
@moriluk No better. They were different. 1970s (hard rock era) was just around the corner. How long Syd could be on top with his psychedelic music? I like Syd music, but it had place only in the 1960s
It is impossible to say what Syd would have done had he not withdrown into seclusion. I will always think he was the most talented member. And his 2 solo albums in my opionion are better than anything they did in the 70's except Animals.
You don't understand progressive music, so don't say shit things...duration of a music doesn't mean that it's worse or better...So respect the Progressive Rock.
@elexenstudios i like all of them and the ones that have 2 mins of nothing before the song starts or bells ringing lol i just fast forward to the instrumentals
@airsoft25g yeeeeeeeeh mothafucka. ummagumma is fucking amazing as fuck on acid. well all long songs in the early days by floyd was epic as fuck Suacer is fucking amazing too...pink floyd is pink floyd until the wall. That shit is just not my thing.
What a surprise, another gratuitous backhanded slap at the post-Syd band by a self-appointed musical pseudo-intellectual. It's spelled p-r-e-t-e-n-t-i-o-u-s. If you must be a pedant, at least learn how to spell.
@sandro28grizz Couldn't have said it better myself. Rather than pretentious I'd much rather think of their songs as melodic symphonies of a profound and incredibly unique nature. Able to extinguish the lies We've been conditioned to have faith in by instilling a belief in freedom. Each time I experience a Pink Floyd song my perception is elevated to plains I didn't even know existed. The depths of their creativity matches those of Beethoven and Mozart.
@TheGreatZurEnRaah I don't think they are pretentious, I was just quoting someone else. I love Floyd, Yes, Genesis, ELP, and all of the other 70s stuff that's usually called pretentious by the "rock purist" idiots.
@sandro28grizz I'm sorry if I didn't make myself clear. I was actually agreeing with you and what you said to thebandcoca and than just giving my opinion of what Pink Floyd means to me. Sorry if that was confusing I didn't mean to be insulting or anything like that. It was my fault for not being mor specific. "rock purist" HAHA I love that : )
@thebandcoca : I don't totally agree with you, when speaking, for example, about Echoes or Animals. But I have to admit you're sometimes right : some songs on Umma Gumma can be usefull... to test the sound of your hi-fi^^ !
The groups that cover this leave out the keyboards and the loose improv echo style of Syd, only leaving in the catchy hook Riff. Maybe we wouldn't have heard of Floyd at all if he didn't leave. Just tragic that he couldn't pull himself together to give us a bit more than the two solo albums. I'm sure his playing would have improved but I doubt he practiced much in the mid seventies. I can only guess his confidence must have been low in those bleak years.

The groups that cover this leave out the keyboards and the loose improv echo style of Syd, only leaving in the catchy hook Riff. Maybe we wouldn't have heard of Floyd at all if he didn't leave. Just tragic that he couldn't pull himself together to give us a bit more than the two solo albums. I'm sure his playing would have improved but I doubt he practiced much in the mid seventies. I can only guess his confidence must have been low in those bleak years.
