    During the recording of the album Roger Waters went around with a tape recorder and asked people on hand questions to get their responses. The older Scottish man was the doorman, other people were around the recording studio. He asked them questions like, “Have you ever been violent with someone?” then he would ask, “Were you in the right?” He asked them about death, if they feared death, about deep things of life. You hear their voices throughout the album. This song, Money, is a harsh critique of people’s attitudes toward money and greed.

    They knew something was going on when they wrote this song. The band wasn't rich by any means, when the Dark Side of the Moon came out, but once they were persuaded to release "Money" as a single, this is what basically happened. The single helped the album stay in the billboard charts for over 15 years, exposing the masses to one of the greatest albums ever made, and each member of the band indeed had the opportunity to buy Lear jets and football teams, etc.

    Great progressive rock band starting in the 60's. They are one of the best-selling music artists of all time. "Wish You Were Here", "The Dark Side Of The Moon" & "The Wall" are among the best-selling albums of all time. They have a huge library of music. Some of their big hits were "See Emily Play", "Money", "Time", "Echoes", "Us & Them", "Another Brick In The Wall, Part 2", "Not Now John", "Comfortably Numb", "On The Turning Away", "High Hopes" etc. I remember going to the Planetarium to watch laser light shows set to their music.

    David Gilmour is a brilliant musician one of the very best! They were experimental and they use anything they could to satisfy them. His concerts became so huge he had to start using Wireless pickups because he got so much Distortion from the huge light Riggs. He uses so many different computers and equipment to get his sound. That's why people love him so much. His sound is so unusual it's kind of like when he plays and sings you're really hearing two voices his wife bought him Jimi hendrix's guitar strap he put on his black Stratocaster. Not only is he a good musician he's really one hell of a human being he sold off some of his guitar collection and donated hundreds of Millions two charities

    Asia, the lead guitar parts have a lot of reverb and a bit of distortion added to fatten up the soloes. I think the muted sound you're referring to, that you hear in the break downs before the vocals come in, is a Wah-Wah effect pedal, the most well known model is called a 'Cry baby', it's an effect pedal like a footrest that is hinged, it sits on the floor and can be rocked back and forth to make a 'wah' sound of anything that's run through it. At the quieter points in the song the rhythm guitar panned to the left channel is playing through one, whilst the keyboard panned to the right channel is also run through one too. The guitar in the middle strikes some chords and is run through a different effects unit called a Tremelo that gives a short, wobbly sound, often this very early effect was build into the guitar amp controls as an optional effect, but could also be a separate effects unit on it's own.

    Dark Side of the Moon accounted for one of the most mystical moments of my life in 1976(?). I was going to school in San Diego and we were early for a midnight showing of "Kentucky Fried Movie" at the Strand Theatre. One of our group had the brilliant idea to hang out at the beach and smoke up before going in. We drove the car onto the beach, put Dark Side of the Moon on the stereo and sat outside smoking and watching the waves come in. Then, as the waves came in, a million tiny fish started flopping on the beach. I wasn't sure it was real. I was a Midwest boy completely out of his element. I had never heard of, nor expected to see a "Grunion Run." Before long, we were running around yelling and laughing while throwing fish at each other. We eventually ended up at the movie, but it was kinda anti-climactic.

    Asia got swept away on a Pink cloud 😁 without even smokin anything. Sure as hell happened to me! BJ nailed that sick bass part kind of half funk half hypnotic the way only Pink Floyd could do it. I saw them at RFK stadium in DC back in the ‘80’s - was stellar. Or interstellar 😁

    Gotta love Pink Floyd reactions!
    There is a lot going on with the music in this song.
    The timing of the song goes back and forth from 4/4 timing to 7/4. The guitar solo is in 7/4.
    I don’t hear any muting of any of the instruments but the Sax has a resonator kind of sound, but I think that’s just Dick Parry’s playing, not a resonator.
    The super incredibly loud piercing sound of David Gilmour’s lead guitar can only be captured during recording by using an effect called Compression. It takes the loud distorted sound and essentially puts a lid on it. A ceiling on the sound, without losing the quality of the sound. Without compression during the recording of loud sounds we would hear horrible distortion.
    Muting guitar strings is done by the player using his right palm and just lightly touching the strings to deaden the sound.
    Listen to some Johnny Cash and hear the iconic sound of Luther Perkins mute those strings while he’s picking away for Johnny.

    70s rock is very blues oriented. Cream and Eric Clapton are good examples. More Led Zepplin stuff is also. Listen to more of them. To understand Pink Floyd's Money, listen to the whole album, Dark Side Of The Moon. It is a great concept album.

    I don’t know if David Gilmore played 3 or 4 separate guitar parts for this song (he played all of the guitar parts), but what happened in the part of the solo that she asked about was all but 1 of the guitar parts stopped, leaving a single, very finely and cleanly overdriven guitar with the bass dialed way down and the mid range scooped to make it stand out. Genius!

    if you’re talking about the warble/underwater effect, the guitar effect was “tremolo”, which is a rapid change in volume. vibrato is a rapid change in pitch.

    In 1997, Tool named King Crimson, Melvins, and Peter Gabriel's Passion as common influences on its development.[21][note 1] In describing their wide range of styles, critics have noted that they are "influenced as much by Pink Floyd as by the Sex Pistols."[134] In a 1993 interview, Adam Jones mentioned Joni Mitchell, King Crimson, Depeche Mode, and country music as being among their inspirations.[28] In 1997, Maynard James Keenan named Hejira by Joni Mitchell, Holy Money/Greed by Swans, Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin, Red by King Crimson, and Passion by Peter Gabriel as his five favorite records.[135] Danny Carey cited Bill Bruford and Alan White of Yes as his two biggest rock influences,[136] in addition to Bruford's adventurousness in electronic drums.[137] In the same way, Jones stated that Robert Fripp's performances with King Crimson caused him to "wake up" to music as a teen. Furthermore, he acknowledged the other King Crimson guitarists, Adrian Belew and Trey Gunn, along with Buzz Osborne from the Melvins, as his biggest influences.[138]

    I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know.

  • @stevedotwood

    Asia, for guitar, it's a Wah-pedal, a filter to make the sound go low and high when you move the pedal. Jimi Hendrix was one of the first ones to use it. Same effect as a muted trumpet like in jazz.

  • @marymargaretmoore9034

    Asia is right about muting. On brass instruments like a saxophone, the thing they put inside the bell of the instrument is indeed called a "mute". Not sure what they do to guitars though, although some of it is done in the studio production room.

    The 2nd guitar solo has vey high notes that cant be reached with a reg Strat so Gilmore had a special guitar made by a company named Davidson which enabled him to play the notes he wanted to in this 2nd solo section of the song.

  • @dereknez965
    @dereknez965 Před 2 lety

    They can contort the strings and release them to make different sounds. They also have a bar that changes the tension on the strings to manipulate the sounds that can be made. Distortion pedals can also be used. Hendrix, Jimmy page, David Gilmour, and Stevie Ray Vaughn are my favorite guitarists who have fun with guitars

  • @b0tterman
    @b0tterman Před 2 lety

    The muted guitar sound probably comes from an effects pedal, The guitar first goes through that before the amp. So pedals can add effects and distortions, depending on the pedal. The guitarist taps the pedal to turn it on and off.

  • @douglasennis7291
    @douglasennis7291 Před 2 lety

    Gilmore used an echoplex on his guitar the "muting" is done on the soundboard by the recording engineer taking the wet(reverb)sound to a dry(no reverb)sound and Gilmore removing the echo(delay) on his guitar 👍🏻😁🤠

    @stanleymyrick4068 Před 2 lety

    Muted Sounds on a guitar can be achieved by using the palm of your strumming hand on the strings, can also mute with the fingering hand. With different muting techniques you can get different sounds. On electric, you can turn the volume all the way down, strike the note or notes, and then turn the volume up and you can get an almost keyboard sound out of it. To do it quickly, depending on your guitar, you can use your pinky to revolve the sound dial up and down while you pick notes. There are all kinds of tricks, not to mention pedals that can electronically alter a sound in different ways (chorus for example, or echo, etc) But as far as this song, I'm not sure.
