Did syd just relate to what was going on in his head whilst he was on acid, he was just human as much as you never wanted him to be. It's a time deal, Someone else would have done it at some point. react
... Roger wasn't really citing that as a reason why it is loud, but merely pointing out the different backgrounds therefore different tastes.
The asshole called Hans went on the say that "not everyone that doesn't grow up in a string quartet becomes a pop band, so your reasoning is flawed" [paraphrasing]. Now wasn't that a ridiculously idiotic thing to say!?
If I was Roger I would have followed with "well not everyone that grew up in a string quartet thinks our music is too loud ASSHOLE"
OK, I say again that Hans Keller [I learned the name from the comments] was an asshole in this interview:
He cited the fact that he grew up in a string quartet as a reason (or a factor) in why he thought that they were "terribly loud". But when Roger said that they (the band) didn't grow up in a string quartet (to use Hans' own reasoning) so that's one of the reasons why they didn't think it was terribly loud.....(see my next comment)
Yes he has the right to express his opinion, but he was being a douche by saying [paraphrasing] "I don't want to prejudice you before you hear them, but here are four reasons why I think they suck". Then he went on to try and prejudice the viewers. That guy is/was an asshole.

Hey, I'm in a band called Blue Shift, and we are greatly inspired by Pink Floyd and one day hope to achieve even a fraction of the success they had, and restore meaning back into music. If you could give our song 'Being/Salvation' a listen, a thumbs up and give us some feedback it'd be absolutely fantastic :) Thank you! youtube.com/watch?v=bfF72INA5nw
I thought that because the Interviewer was ugly, he would be necessarily intelligent. But i´ve noticed that ugly people are not necessarily intelligent too..
I believe Hans paid more attention to Pink Floyd's music than most of the people who claim to be fans nowadays. He could actually point out things he didn't like, when today's "fans" just say "Pink Floyd is awesome!"
He didn't want to bias us before listening to the song ...just had 4 quick comments, some of them stating that it was way to loud and that he is too much of a musician to appreciate that kind of music ...HA HA Ha HA HA - absolutely love that guy, he's the sort of person who brings laughter to the world not even knowing it :-)
That performance was way in the hell out there and ahead of it's time, (ala a psychadelic Kurt Cobain), so that poor conservative old school chap hosting the show had no chance whatsoever of grasping any of what he was witnessing. His loss...
The critic seriously doesn't bother me. Life is more interesting when you get questioned for the things you love to do! I like their little smirks here :3
Great vid. I love the fact that they had the energy to answer this stiff's questions. That guy had no good reason to be interviewing them, if you ask me. (check his pulse please ;) Good stuff here.
@CabLuigi This argument has reached a level of useless. I could be 25, 10 or 80, you're never pretentious to talk about the music you love. Actually I find it rather pretentious of you to say that I'm a patronising saddo because I'm starting to think that you're closer than me at being that kind of person. Anyways, you may say whatever you want.. But you might as well write on the wall because I won't be reading nor replying.
of course if ur fucking fault u don`t apreciatted u fucking moron, what the hell is that shit "too much of a musician to fully apreciatte it??? " fuck u very much
As much as i dont agree with Hans i have to say i like it that he speaks his own mind. Today everbody is just "kissing ass" to everybody in interviews! I hate hypocrits, just say what you have to say!
Remember that back then Pink Floyd was just starting. They were an experimental band. They had a lot of criticism, and it's a real common thing for innovating bands.
Wow, if Hans Kellar thought Pink Floyd was boring and repetitive, imagine what he would say about modern music, he would rip them apart. All they say is "I'm sexy and I know it" or "Baby" or "Sexy Bitch" all throughout the song.
Stop hating in Kellar. He doesn't like them and he doesn't have to, but as he says "they have an audience" - he understands that music like this must be heard.
Hans was just criticising, ok he may have seemed a bit lenient on the matter but you have to remember that Floyd were doing something very new for that time, you can almost consider it as the "Heavy Metal" of that era. Not in the sense of heaviness, but in the sense of something different, more bizarre and loud. When something is new and different people at first will criticise it heavily because they want to see how it makes them feel. So really, some of you people should just fucking grow up.
@CabLuigi You're not a very clever fellow are you? That was neither patronising nor sad in any way. Therefore, I would ask you to go read some books, maybe you start thinking. (Y)
@jamesbonello1 It was incredibly patronising. You strike me as the sort of person who enjoys the sound of their own voice. Do you lecture all your friends on music history as well? Do they think you're ever so clever?
@CabLuigi Now you're just concluding things. If you have any hint of reason within you, you should SEE that what I said wasn't patronising, it was merely fact. Nearly everyone here is assuming the worst from the critic and actually it is not the case, including you. So just chill out, grow up, and try understand more what I was trying to say rather than blindly concluding that I'm trying to talk down to anyone, because quite frankly my post was never actually aimed at anyone but the video itself
Oh but Wait, The Pink Floyd Was a string quartet, a trend setting pop group and by far the most influential artists of the century and possibly this century, someone please give Hans a hit of window pain !
Carl Sagan - "Our collective free time needs to shift as much as possible to education. Whether you're a young student or finished school long ago, get out to the library whenever you can and work hard to learn everything you can about this world. Each individual and society will benefit from being able to solve more problems and make better decisions. Education is an amazing discovery process that repays you endlessly."
'The Pink Floyd. You are going to hear them in a minute and I don't want to prejudice you. Hear them first and we'll talk about them after, but they are shite, repetitive and have an uncivilized taste for loudness.'
I will never understand why people think that the more complex music gets the better it is (which seems to be the implication of the statments made by Hans). Some of Charles Mingus' most basic compositions are his best. Repetition can be a good thing!
i see what the man was saying about too much volume. There's a lot of factors at play. One thing is that those old amps start to sound best when they are turned up pretty far. Also, repeated loud sound levels damage cause hearing loss, so people start to go louder and louder over time to compensate.
You know a band is too loud when you have to wear earplugs.
@LarryFlames Besides that, Mr. Keller was a Holocaust survivor. Did you know that? He was interned for nearly 3 years in Dachau. He was a very accomplished violinist and contributed greatly to promoting classical greats like Arthur Fiedler, Percy Faith, and Frank Chacksfield--hardly the credentials of a loser. In 1966-67 Pink Floyd's sound was so wierd and bizarre even to pop music fans. Yes, he died in 1986 at the age of 70--20 years before Syd Barret passed away. God rest both souls!
@chev6art Thank you for that. I didn't know anything about him. I do get bored of people on YouTube posting comments such as "Yo dickhead - you're an arse!". I'm sure neither Syd or Hans would approve.
Totally agree! And he does not just give his opinion, he does that with respect towards the band. Today (at least in Argentina) we have some idiots that have tv shows and, if they don't like the music, they try to make the band look stupid and ridiculous.
Ok Hans isn't a good man here but please don't say he's an ass he brought pink floyd to the TV and if he doesn't like this music it's only because he's from another generation who didn't listened this kind of music... sorry for my bad english I just wanted to say that but if you don't like my english let's talk my language and it will be better for me^^.
@turkniktout Why do you say Hans isn't a good man? He says what he feels - without resorting to foul language youtube heads! Can you drones express yourselves without swearing? I'm specifically talking to50sTo90sRockLover and brasiliennr1, oh yes and metalbornmetalbred
Why don't you all go back to college or something? You sound like drivelling idiots.
"The Pink Floyd" I mean "the"? ok then. As for Hans.. you are dead so who cares what you had to say back then. Buddy, PF went on to overtake your world of musicology. The people have spoken you arrogant little shit you.
@666fuckoffandie I hear Barrett's influence in other stuff they've done. Opens up a, "What if....?" for me. Syd Barrett: The way he would've sounded in the 1980's....and beyond.
Yes Hans is being a bit of a snob and even a straight up asshole, But I'm so sick of seeing interviewers sucking up to bands who are absolute shite,
I mean if this is his approach with Pink Floyd I would just love to resurect him (I'm guessing his passed by now) to interveiw some of the crap thats on the radio today.
Not that all bands today are shite, You just gotta dig deeper.
"Por que tienen que sonar tan fuerte?"... que viejo pelotudo, se ve que nunca tocó un instrumento y se alegró la vida con los sonidos que ellos producirian :s

@StanleyWiddos He really wasn't at this point he had sense and awareness around him, he had wit, was a fun guy with a good attitude. I believe just shortly after doing Emily Play he disappeared for 3 months (may be wrong on the date) after those 3 months he was out of it, I guess he experimented too much, had too much bad trips, and was there in body but not in mind.
@StanleyWiddos We are all a little bit crazy, I don't think Syd was much more crazy than you and me, but the level of madness was more noticeable in his case. Now if you excuse me... Theres a stain on the wall that is talking to me
@StanleyWiddos Apparently he wasn't, or at least, he was still able to control what the public saw. And what we see is a young man on his way to doing great things with Pink Floyd: Not camera shy, not afraid to to be on stage, not afraid answer Keller's acerbic questions, and definitely the most shining musician in this performance of Astronomy Domine. This is the Syd Barrett we saw too little of. What a sad loss, but a sober lesson as to what LSD can do to a talented man....
@aphkumund This video was released in May 1967, I believe, and he was fine up until about August, when their first album was released. After that, his mental state slowly deteriorated, until about December, when the band just couldn't tolerate it further.
You can hear an audio interview of him in September, and there's a video of him stage performing in America in December. You will notice a difference.
well we admit it, the bandmates liked the comment and some friends, but we're not responsible for the other 20 likes :) + we're not spamming floyd videos (we only commented on three), we love floyd and quality music and just hoped there are musicians who can appreciate us ^^
"Perhaps I'm a little bit too much of a musician to appreciate them." (1:30). What an arrogant, egotistical remark to make! If ever I heard a backhanded slap of a concessionary compliment, that's it!
Jesus is the only hope of salvation from the guilt of sin. He is God come in the flesh. And he came to wash away our sins with his blood that he shed on the cross. Salvation is a free gift, but you must repent and ask Jesus to save you from your sins and come into your heart. God is good. It is written, "The just shall live by his faith."
Love the Hans Keller bit. It shows the context of the time -when youths collided with the underground scene, truly separate from the establishment & could upset the adults. Boring?! Go study your Shubert records, Hans! I'll show you hostility! Good for Waters & Barrett for standing up to this oaf. "A regression to childhood" Ha. Gotta love that rift ! things are too safe now - the parents smoked weed & grew up on BeatlesStonesZeppelinFloyd -How's a kid to rebel these days? o yeh, the punk rock.
Sorry, just over the border then. Either way, I just don't see the point of his critqiue as Pink Floyd were clearly aimed at people with an open mind whether, pharmaceutically or otherwise. Still nobody back then how popular they would be in years to come.
How tough would it be to go on live, as a green band, after hearing the host of the show say he doesn't like you?

Yes Hans is being a bit of a snob and even a straight up asshole, But I'm so sick of seeing interviewers sucking up to bands who are absolute shite,
I mean if this is his approach with Pink Floyd I would just love to resurect him (I'm guessing his passed by now) to interveiw some of the crap thats on the radio today.
Not that all bands today are shite, You just gotta dig deeper.

StanleyWiddos 5 months ago
@StanleyWiddos He really wasn't at this point he had sense and awareness around him, he had wit, was a fun guy with a good attitude. I believe just shortly after doing Emily Play he disappeared for 3 months (may be wrong on the date) after those 3 months he was out of it, I guess he experimented too much, had too much bad trips, and was there in body but not in mind.

@StanleyWiddos We are all a little bit crazy, I don't think Syd was much more crazy than you and me, but the level of madness was more noticeable in his case. Now if you excuse me... Theres a stain on the wall that is talking to me
bloodynoise666 5 months ago 2
@StanleyWiddos Apparently he wasn't, or at least, he was still able to control what the public saw. And what we see is a young man on his way to doing great things with Pink Floyd: Not camera shy, not afraid to to be on stage, not afraid answer Keller's acerbic questions, and definitely the most shining musician in this performance of Astronomy Domine. This is the Syd Barrett we saw too little of. What a sad loss, but a sober lesson as to what LSD can do to a talented man....

aphkumund 5 months ago
@aphkumund This video was released in May 1967, I believe, and he was fine up until about August, when their first album was released. After that, his mental state slowly deteriorated, until about December, when the band just couldn't tolerate it further.
You can hear an audio interview of him in September, and there's a video of him stage performing in America in December. You will notice a difference.

Jesus is the only hope of salvation from the guilt of sin. He is God come in the flesh. And he came to wash away our sins with his blood that he shed on the cross. Salvation is a free gift, but you must repent and ask Jesus to save you from your sins and come into your heart. God is good. It is written, "The just shall live by his faith."

Love the Hans Keller bit. It shows the context of the time -when youths collided with the underground scene, truly separate from the establishment & could upset the adults. Boring?! Go study your Shubert records, Hans! I'll show you hostility! Good for Waters & Barrett for standing up to this oaf. "A regression to childhood" Ha. Gotta love that rift ! things are too safe now - the parents smoked weed & grew up on BeatlesStonesZeppelinFloyd -How's a kid to rebel these days? o yeh, the punk rock.
