Pink Floyd Fat Old Sun live London 1971 part 2 (audio only)

[Juupp]

Listen to the old Floyd is like taking a warm bath after a cold rain...

Shine on

[MWLUCKY]

this has long been my favorite recording of anything Floyd ever did. I had it on a cassette that I lost a while back. If anyone has any idea how I could get the whole track on mp3 I'd be truly grateful.

[bozboz777]

I would love to see the video of this....

[IsisTiamat]

BBC doesn't sell Pink Floyd's Studio Recordings anymore :(( Maybe a global petition would help?

[IsisTiamat]

Fantastic version of this song... tremendous

[HairExplosion]

[coniantes]

[Pozsnappy]

This made the song ten times better than it already is. And it already was great.

[deeroni9577]

[IsisTiamat]

The best solo on Fat Old Sun I've heard. This is Dave Gilmour at his magical best.

Thank you so much for posting.

[irlandos1]

WHAT A BAND!! (part 2)

[talpajam]

Man that Hiwatt cleans up just beautifully when DG brings the volume down on his Strat...dang I gotta gets me one.

[Klute187]

:P muss

[oliverwaker456]

i like the royal albert hall one better. sorry i just think its a little cleaner sounding (which is partially the origional recordings falt).

[chiefthegreat]

Has anyone those mysterious and sought after movies of the time, where PF would make the music for ? That would be a great stuff to upload ... !

[athrough0]

Look up flosyd, he has them.

[mightyzeppelin]

god damn those guys could jam together like no other

[froppotheweak]

oh my god that was beautiful!

=' )

[Klute187]

awesome ! yeah.....!!

[BrenoSalvador]

Amazing version, it'sa shame none of the Atom Heart Mother songs were played in 'Live at Pompeii'... Fat Old Sun could have made it less ''dark''.

[gabrieljardine]

this song being perfomed alive is like the official transition from psychedelic art rock to psychedelic jazz-art-rock xD

[athrough0]

Unless, of course, they played Atom Heart Mother :P

[FloydAlann69]

wow!!!!! great gig....and Rick was great on Hammond too.....very very jazzy and cool!!!!

[gabrieljardine]

jazz rock!

[PurpleAndZeppelin]

Great! I have a tattoo of them on the forearm.

[mskinner847]

I didnt even know this was part of the song. Amazing. Nice rare posts!

I was at this concert in 1971. It was recorded in the BBC "Paris" Studio in Lower Regent Street London, It was part of a series of concerts that the BBC would broadcast on Sunday afternoons hosted by the late John Peel. Also on the set were performances of Embyo, Echoes, and One of These Days. It was recorded roughly a week before the band went off to Italy to record their Live in Ponpeii film. This whole broadcast later became available as a bootleg album titled Meddler.

[aurora1957A]

Fantastic bit of history! What a great piece of luck you were there!

:)

[ersy100]

Thankyou. I used to go to these concerts every week. I saw most of the top bands that were around in that era this way. They included Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Rod Stewart and the Faces, Fairport convention and dozens more. What made it even better was that the tickets were free, all I did was keep applying to the BBC every week and the tickets would arrive in the post. You would get 4 tickets with each application. Some of the concerts are now available on CD under the title of Live at the BBC

[musikhuntr]

you are officially awesome

I hope you kept some of those ticket stubs lol

[rockitmanjohn]

Rick's Hammond organ is like a primary color, like a ray of sunshine~

[pradtheprophet]

Just imagine...you goto a bar and this is the live band!!...that would be something!!... PF music can only be described in superlatives!!

[relorduy7]

godd damnn.. what a version! the best... been a die hard fan whom has hear almost everything from floyd listening to this version just kills me!!!!

[lordc0ntyb0ll0cks]

best band ever, best song ever, and (to me anyway) the best album i know there is dark side of the moon and wish you were here but atom heart mother is pure feeling my heart lifts every time i listen to it

[dabuggerr]

पिंक फ्लाय्ड का जवाब नहीं. डेविड गिल्मोर एक उम्दा गिटारिस्ट हैं

[ChablesMan]

Gilmour's voice is just so...perfect.

[BrokenChair88]

Pink Floyd wrote "Dogs".

[ChevKen]

On the set of "The Exorcist", the bedroom set was refrigerated to 30 below zero.

[aurora1957A]

UH... Sorry about removing your post - the "reply" link is too close to the "remove" link I get...

:^P

To answer your question, I traded a bootleg of the Floyd KQED video for this version of "Fat Old Sun".

I think this is my favorite song. Ever.

[FXPedaldotCom]

@aurora1957A Ditto !

[chrisocony]

thanks for the great post; an outstanding new (to me) version of a great song, a song i've listened to hundreds of times (mostly the Montreaux and San Diego versions)

[Seetheskyabouttorain]

This Fat Old Sun is perhaps the sweetest version ever. Gilmour's voice carries perfectly. The start of the reprise (5:45 - 6:15) is like waking up from a grand dream. Smell the the new mown grass! Awesome.

[myrealnameismatt]

I have to agree - I have a pretty decent library of PF bootlegs and this show is one of my favourites. I think it stayed in my CD player for about a year :D

[joaofelixsilva]

The improvisation is brilliant.

[phototrip]

Fantastic

[FloydCouncil84]

Troppo bella questa canzone! Grandi Pink Floyd
