Making of The Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd - Part 4/5

[matooli]

1) Thanks for uploading this video.

2) Fuck EMI for blocking the final part.

It's just this kind of non-productive, through the back door screwing over of people that will make no-one shed a tear when these venture capitalist bastards finally go bust (speaking as someone who BUYS music and taped this doc but has mislaid it- we're not all pirates!).

Once again, thanks for uploading what I was able to watch.

[murderousbastard83]

Wow, "Money" sounds like a Robert Johnson song when it's stripped down.

[ole9421]

They're so right, the silent spaces in between notes are just as important as the played notes.

[Sbavni]

I NEED A TIME MACHINE!!!!!!!!!

[kissmebaby341]

@Sbavni can i come with ? 

[Sbavni]

@kissmebaby341 Yes :) when you want! :) Are you ready???

[steffemelec]

legend........wait for it................dary :)

[woodhd]

heres sir dick !

[JamesA7X8]

pink floyd laser light show changed my life.

[ninyae]

Modern society is inclined towards fascism. It has a propensity by it’s dominant philosophy and religion to uphold the fascist point of view.

[ninyae]

1973, heady days...I was 15 and this album brought me into the world of import record shops.

[norsemustang]

@serpenti89 It is 7/4. He just mistakenly called it 7/8. It goes 7/4 to 4/4 and back to 7/4.

[Mrjablles69]

you know hwat i hate about his video.....it ends in the middle of their most calming song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GeddyYeti2112]

2:21 What a great fucking cut. 

[themann141]

Ricks a genius. There all geniuses but i think dark side is where rick really shines.

[DilutePeople]

@serpenti89 I think you can write it either way, it all depends on the band's personal preference when it comes to writing it out on sheet. Just yesterday in music theory class we went over some of the creative ways you can break up a phrase. Point is, great song :)

[mynameischunky]

1:50 is when i realized that roger is playing eric claptons signature martin. eric clapton has got to be the most overrated guitar player ever. the five kings of guitar are Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Dave Mustaine.

[teleworldshare]

Dark side of the Moon sure has that Alan Parson sound. Incredible quality for the early 70's.

[selvaescalada]

David Gilmour still as beautiful as he was decades ago. He's so sexy....those eyes...

[Mr5stringBob]

I love old stuff like this - especially playing for a Floyd tribute.

[Citadin]

"Money" is the one glaring weak spot on the album.

[feverspell]

I don't agree. I love Money, and only really came to appreciate it after NOT hearing it on the radio for a few years. I think the reason most people, not necessarily you, dislike the song is because it's overplayed, which I agree with. Some of the live performances of the song that I've heard, whether from official live releases or bootlegs, made me warm up to it in a way I hadn't before.

I think On The Run is actually quite weak, and much prefer The Travel Sequence, from 1972.

[MDR5288]

Totally agree.

[Citadin]

@feverspell

Let's agree to disagree on Money then. For one thing, it was added at the request of the label, who wanted a hit sog for the radio. The rest of the album flows beautifully.

I'll have to check out The Trael Sequence, thanks for the tip feverspell.

[TheEliseAnn]

I love the explanation of how simple, soft, and exact Pink Floyd's music is. It's what makes it so beautiful and touching

also, Roger Waters = hilarious, David Gilmoure= HOT

[MrCurran0027]

7:36, haha Roger is so funny

[pooler21]

ugh...i love this album/band/emotions i feel from it...

[krollaostmedburger]

the myth with the dark side of the moon and the wizard of oz is cool. I've been listening to metallica all the time and i've missed Pink floyd. I need to start listening to them now

[Kennylennon5]

I think that the release of money as there single was a necessary evil. It was way to popular and still is even today but, they needed that single to promote the greatest album of all time...Dark Side of the Moon.

[tesfan4evr]

Is wonderful but its a-too sad, it makes me think of chruch. Lol Roger Waters has a great sense of humor!

I would have to agree with floydfreak, those two songs are some of the best on the album!

[floydfreak73]

why don't they talk about any colour you like or eclipse??

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

@floydfreak73 i'm not too sure about Eclipse but Any Colour You Like is much older than any other song in Dark Side Of The Moon track.

[HandMane]

7:38 LOL

[LJMO85]

the cambridge mafia!

[MarkMillionaireGuru]

Hello berlogea

I have to admit I am very impressed with the quality of your videos here on youtube.

They are certainly a pleasure to watch as I do enjoy them.

I am sure there is many others who also feel the same about your videos.

Mark McCulloch

[Stoppani94]

Us and Them is soo moving,, and sad but beautiful I love at the end when it changes to Any Color you like,,it really gives me the creeps behind my back...I dont understand why they didnt talk about Any color you like on this doc..For me its the best song from Pink Floyd..love dark side

[therealsaintseiya]

pm me

[nbomb1204]

Us and Them....favorite Pink Floyd song of all time

[poodle720]

Echoes

[double91trouble]

Us And Them is a powerful piece. I bet it's extremely moving with the violence sequence. What a great album though.

[HookedOnSonics518]

I would kill to get "The Violent Sequence" on my iPod. Rick Wright is a GENIUS!

[therealsaintseiya]

PM me ill send it to you.

[darthvaderyoda]

can you send it to me also?

[Tomading]

is beautiful but isa too sad

[GeezaGooderz]

ita makes me think of church

[chromiumveins]

you a Church fan? They're my favorite band in the world!

[jmm1233]

there is a moment in 2001 SO , where the crew and Hal9000 have this interchange that fits this to Us and Them perfectly ,

[stugots326]

this is probably one of the few albums that i actually like and listen to every song on the album

[annatom2]

me to man its life in one album

[SuperRyanGee]

@stugots326 MGMT - Oracular Spectacular is the same way

[grohlgrohl]

@SuperRyanGee WOW NO!

[Mrster]

@SuperRyanGee

Disagree. There are misses there.

[FadedSTEELERSfan]

@SuperRyanGee don;t you dare try to compare Mgmt 's aesthetically pleasing no substance music please and thanks

[SuperRyanGee]

@FadedSTEELERSfan no substance? really?? youve obviously never listened to them or have just listened to Congratulations. Which I wasn't referring to. Oracular Spectacular is one of the BEST albums of all time just terribly unrecognized. Yea I guess its good you understand how amazing Pink Floyd is but your terribly close minded. Feel free to fuck off.

[FadedSTEELERSfan]

@SuperRyanGee you sir are fucking retarded .. i like Mgmt i've seen them live twice and i regretted it both times... i have all their albums and they're meh at best... in all honesty theyve gone downhill since electric feel , don't get me wrong i completely understand and respect what they do but man they just suck so much balls when they play live its just ridiculous.. ... LOL oracular was a badass album i loved almost every song but come on man its not one of the best of all time .. YOURE GAY

[GibsonRocks12]

For the 2009 grammys they used Us and Them to show the passing Of Rick

[rengoku23]

man the demo recording is soooo different in a good way. MONEEIEEEE XD

[Obelisk2290]

a lot of italians hate the church even the pope

[Obelisk2290]

behind roger is the analog and digital version of the mackie console

[AnnoyingLittleShit]

Makes me think of church

Hahaha!

Us and Them is probably my favourite song on the album :)

[sistochris]

Thank God Antonioni rejected Rick Wright's violence sequence as being too sad and too much like church for his movie Zabrinsky's Point. It must have been fate! BTW: I love how Roger Waters imitates Antonioni, as an English speaker he impersonates the brilliant movie director perfectly. RIP Wright, Barrett and Antonioni, you'll always live on!

[sistochris]

I love everything about this album, but I just wanted to say Capitol Records Chairman Bhasker Menon seems so cool. Do you agree? I'd imagine he would be great as a boss... I hope he's a grandfather enjoying a wonderful retirement... PF fans, I've commented so much on this, and you've commented back very kindly. I just forgot to mention the other characters I love in here: engineers Alan Parsons, Chris Thompson, journalists: David Fricke, Storm, Nigel, the girls and others...

[Kohntarkosz]

I wouldn't want him as a boss. The thing is, the guy is a record company executive, and thusly he's really looking at the bottom line most of the time. I'm sure he's told more than one band or artist "Oh, this is a good record, but I don't hear any hits. Go back and record some singles for this!".

And David Fricke is an idiot if he seriously thinks Money's is THAT "strange". It's actually a pretty basic shuffle apart from it being 7/8. He's obviously never heard stuff like Magma or Henry Cow.

[GoCelticsNow]

Actually the time signature for Money is 7/4, not 7/8

[Kohntarkosz]

Well, the point is that "oh it's in seven" doesn't make Money all that stange. At the base of it, Money is a shuffle. Sure, Pink Floyd threw a clever rhythmic twist in there, but the melodic and harmonic language is relatively conventional. And it's got a good hook and the lyrics are something anyone can relate to.

I mean, there's far, FAR stranger music than Money.

[Truthzilla]

He didn't say it was strange in and of itself but that it was strange for a really big hit. How many really big hit songs do you know of in 7/8? There probably aren't a lot.

[darthvaderyoda]

I think Gilmour is right, its 7/8 but ive seen it, and played it, in 7/4

[TheYahara]

@darthvaderyoda

It's in 7/4. 7/4 has 14 quavers in a bar. 7/8 has 8 quavers in a bar. If you count the quavers (1and2and3and4and5and6and7and)­, there are 14 quavers in one bar before the riff returns back to its starting point at B.

[12fretz]

explain

[LudvigAlm]

depends on how fast you consider your 1/8's to be...
