for me, animals is arguably their greatest album.
I'm with you mat :)
For me there’s no argue. This IS their best album, and that’s a fact!
agreed, I learned this album from beginning to end on bass, amazing album!
I agree, l seen the Animals concert in Cleveland Ohio back in the stoned age. It was amazing. Still remember after all these decades.
I respect your opinion, but for me, Dark side of the moon ❤️❤️❤️
"animals" turned me from a casual fan (mostly stuff i heard on the radio from "dark side" and "wish you were here") into an obsessed one. in may 1977 my friend called me and said, "pink floyd are playing at the stadium tonight. we should go". that night changed my life. the next day i went out and bought "animals" and throughout that summer i bought the entire back catalog,immersing myself in their music. by the time i went back to school in september for my sophomore year i was a different person. gone was the pop music fan,and my outlook on music (and the world) changed forever.
Gilmour simply cannot be bested when it comes to emotive guitar playing. He is incredible. The whole band is!
100% agree! Thanks for watching, more Floyd to come!
Agree, he isn't best technical guitarist, but he strictly play on emotions. And that's what i'm looking into the music - emotions.
fun fact, Gilmore also wrote the bass lines for a bunch of Pink Floyd songs, as I was going through the catalog learning songs, I kept coming across Gilmore as the credited artist for the bass, turns out he is also one of my favorite bassists...love this band
Wish you were here and animals 😎👍 classic floyd baby!!!
I'll drink to your truest statement! Cheers 🙌🌞🌔🌓🌒🌑🎵✌️
Haha, Pink Floyd has enough patience for all of us! Watching you two reminds me of me and my wife 35 years ago. My wife was not nearly as big a fan of Pink Floyd as I was, but I thought I would try to get her to love Pink Floyd as much as I did! I even took her to two of their concerts, (one was The Wall in 1980).
My wife went along enthusiastically, listening to CDs, (that I would play for her), going to the concerts, buying Pink Floyd T shirts and other PF stuff. She is wonderful, she was smiling the whole time,.... but it was painfully obvious to me, that she was doing it, not because she was blown away by the incredible music, but because she loved me! LOL!
Looks similar to what I'm seeing here in your reaction, except we have American accents instead of English accents!
So today I'm 65 and watching you folks doing this reaction,.... and it gave me a smile thinking back to better times. Thank you for that.
I’m American and they sure sounded Australian to me. There are words like “poker” that separate the Brits from the Aussies.
Aw, the things we do for love. She sounds like a keeper!!
@@Esl1999 he sounds English(londonish). She sounds Aussie. Sorry don’t know their names.correction maybe kiwi vowels , trans Tasman sprawl maybe dunno lol
My wife liked some Floyd a lot.
She didn’t like a lot though.
Especially Animals and then suddenly it clicked , which she now rates as one of her favourite albums ever.
Floyd are a slow burn band, but when you get them nothing else compares.
Thanks so much for charing that story - so cool! I bet The Wall gig would be a touch watch for anyone who didn't know the album first! :)
Mate, love your passion for this album. I share it.
Thanks mate!
I agree with you 100%. My favourite Gilmour solo. It literally sounds like his strings are melting in acid.
THIS ALBUM MAKES ME FEEL THINGS OTHER ALBUMS DONT
I get it :). Thanks for watching! More Floyd coming soon. Feel free to sub to keep up to date. Cheers
Vibe out brother!. Floyd never rush their journeys....but we wouldn't have it any other way!
I saw them do this live in 1977 during their "In the Flesh" tour in Phoenix Arizona I think it was sometime in February! They played all of "Animals" then all of "Wish You Were Here" and did half of "Dark Side of The Moon" for their encore! I've seen at least a hundred concerts in my lifetime from AC DC to Zeppelin and everyone in between alphabetically. Pink Floyd is the only group where my wife and I wouldn't be able to talk all the way home!! We were especially speechless after that in the flesh concert, spectacular!!! I've seen them four times twice in the seventies once in 87 and the 94 Pulse concert. There's no one better!!
Oh wow - so envious! I "only" got to see them for the Delicate and Pulse tours. Would have loved to see them all playing together! Thanks for watching!
I got to see them live in New York at Carnegie Hall - 1972 Dark Side of the Moon tour!
As with almost every Pink Floyd album, you really need to listen to the whole album front to back to fully appreciate them. Too bad Rachel can't fully appreciate them for them being one of the greatest bands ever.
I'm working on it :) Thanks for watching!
I love how they put this album together. I could listen to it over and over again and find something new every time.
Absolutely! Thanks for watching - more Floyd coming soon!
I actually did for about 3 days Straight 🤣
Hallelujah! Someone else has the same opinion of those aggressively filthy descending chords in Gilmour's solo.
LMFAO....... She. Is. NOT. Impressed. I love the "Are we there yet?" look on her face. Hilarious.
HIM: this is Roger Waters singing. HER: FUCK YOU!!! (respectfully in her head of course, but definitely wanting to scream it)
Yeah, it wasn't a favourite that's for sure! She enjoyed SORROW a lot more - check that one out. At least you know you are going to get an honest reaction :) Thanks for watching!
An hour to live and I listen to this,overture,and wings for Marie
That would be a last hour well spent!
Thanks for watching!
The guitar in this song in particular actually full on affects my soul. So much love for Floyd.
I hear ya!
Thanks for watching!
Her first Pink Floyd song, and you play her DOGS? 🤣 Talk about throwing her in the deep end! I love it! Maybe next time, ease her in a bit with Time or even Have a Cigar. What's next, The Trial? 😁
Ha - Good big or go home I say! Actually next we did Sorrow (Live), which got a much better response. Check it out. Thanks for watching. Cheers
I like 'Dogs,' but I especially enjoy watching Pink Floyd (and David Gilmour solo) live. Their concerts were spectacular, with the laser light shows and the musicianship is amazing, as always. I might suggest reacting to something from the Pulse concert ('Comfortably Numb', 'Sorrow', or 'Keep Talking'). Or, from the 'Delicate Sound of Thunder' tour, 'On the Turning Away.' Maybe the immediacy of a live show would make it more accessible?
Thanks for the suggestions and for watching! More Floyd to come :)
I've said this on a few reactions, this is one of the most important PUNK albums ever
Interesting! Thanks for watching.
The best album.
They did the long ponderous interlude in all of the 3 main songs on Animals. Not sure if they were filling time to make the album long enough to press.
My favorite tune from my favorite album!
You and me both :) Thanks for watching. Got some more Floyd coming soon.
@@RDMusicExchange if she thought Dogs was long see if she can get through Echoes!! 🙂
@@frankfjm88 One day! :)
Thanks SOOOOOO much for reacting to this Great piece of Musical Art!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching. Check out our reaction to Sorrow too
Just gained another Subscriber with that one!! Interested to see what else you have!!
@@michaeldrennan9932 Thanks man! Lots of cool stuff to come :)
Still gotta check out Pink Floyds Debut album Piper at the Gates of Dawn released in February of 1967 with Syd Barrett!! Be Sure to wear Headphones for That one!! My second Favorite album behind ANIMALS!!!
Agreed. Best Gilmour Solo. 👍 It's dirty, filthy and sick.
Cheers mate! Thanks for watching!
My favourite Gilmour solo too
Another recommendation would be, Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii, "Echos Pt 1"....
Head back in a couple of weeks - I have something from Pompeii planned! :)🤫
This is me and my wife: I enthusiastically play a song and hope for enthusiasm, and my wife tells me it's nice--not her thing, but glad I like it! I don't mind the honesty with the charity!
Ha - yeah, I can relate! She's enjoying some more than others, and actually really enjoyed Sorrow when she thought she probably wouldn't. It's all part of the fun :) Thanks for watching. More to come soon. Cheers
I wasn't immediately a huge fan of this album when it came out in '77. In fact it took a couple decades before I really started to appreciate it. It was an angrier album, influenced somewhat by the punk movement.
Thanks for watching!
Yes I agree, Suggest, however gently, to your wife that she listen to it once a week with the lights low or out for about a year with red wine and let it grow on her.
¡Lo más grande!...
Indeed! Thanks for watching - more Floyd to come!
I’m always amazed by how they kept a chord scheme going in endless rhythm variations. Just subtle changes to get from singer songwriter to funk to rock to experimental and on and on
Yep, awesome.
Cheers
Animals is by far their most extraordinary album. And Dogs for me their Epic track. Roger wrote this about the record company execs who were making more money off their work than the members of the band. He literally thought of them as Dogs.
Not by far, because it is actually an hard pick. While I personally prefer The Dark Side of the Moon, each of their four albums from '73 to '79 is worth the crown. Well, apart from Wish You Were Here that I personally I place half step below the other three, mainly because of his glacial feeling and a couple of tracks that I find below the others.
Thanks for watching! More Floyd to come!
Not all of their songs are about the music industry
The greatest ever
Thanks, that's kind. Oh, you mean the band? That makes more sense 😂. Thanks for watching!
i remember the firsts time i listened this album, i was too surprised by his originality to appreciate at full, more i listened it more powerful it was. so great... they are to the rock what the mozart or beethoven are to the classic music...
PK is the best. My favorite band as a teen and still.
I agree with the seventeen minute section, at one point I thought "c'mon dudes, let's move it along". But other than that, the lyrics are amazing. I think it's harder and harder to find music with such amazing landscapes and characters built into it.
Agreed!
Thanks for watching!
Massive Floyd fan here. No issues with Rach saying it's not her cup of tea. It's not what you say, it's how you say it. She gave it a shot, didn't slate the band off & say they were rubbish or that, so can't ask for her to be any fairer or more honest than that... I reckon 'Sheep' is the track off this album she might take a liking to tho if she like's getting a bit of a groove on to a song.
Yep - can't win them all! Yep, Sheep a good call! Thanks for watching!
I thought your fun fact was going to be about the Pig breaking free from its moorings, during the photoshoot for the cover, and floating off across london causing chaos as it went. 😳. Yes, it is a photograph.
That is a great story - I'll keep it for when we do Pigs :)
It’s a painting of the photograph
@@johnny85er Nope. It's a composite of two photos from different days (because the pig flew away on the first day)
PF is like food, it's sometimes bitter, sometimes sweet sometimes you just don't like the taste or the texture but an adventurous sole will at least give it a try. PF is not an acquired taste. You know whether or not you like it. It has to give you a feeling when you sit quietly reclined ,lights dimmed, headphones on and drift with them. Ahhh, there lies their secret sauce.
Thanks for watching!
If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times...when you world turns to shit and you've had a crappy day, you come home, pour a scotch (or similar), or glass of red, drink that offing it down. Then, pour another, woof that down too, then pour a third one and go turn off all the lights. Put this OR any Pink Floyd record on. Go find a bean bag or deep leather couch, put your headphones on and sink down into your chair, close your eyes, sip away the final drink, and let the music sooth your soul !!!
No it's not for everyone and Kudos to your wife for listening to it with you. It can be good to understand you partner's passions.
It's funny - doing this was the first time I had listened to this track with headphones on for ages - all that was mossing was the drink! :)
Thanks for watching - we have some more Floyd on the way soon - hoping Rach will enjoy it more next time :)
@@RDMusicExchange Pardon me for being so bold in suggesting this, but Rach needs to hear these over and over. I have heard these since my teens and I now find I hum various elements of these sons when I'm out and about. PF have written some enduring licks and hooks in their tiunes. You just need to make them a part of your lifestyle and that only comes with repetition. So I'd play them around the house from time to time and she'll come around.
As both of you know that Pink Floyd's Animals is based from George Orwell's 1945's Animal Farm. Book is the animals wanted to take over the world from the Humans. In this album, Pigs are the fat rich, Dogs are their enforcers, and Sheep are the followers.....I think.
Hi, yeah, that's how I have always read that too. Thanks for watching!
This may be my favorite album of all time, although I have to say all PF albums are up there for me. I 100% feel your passion about this music and David Gilmour's playing in particular. It hits me hard in the feels every. Single. Time.
In response to the comments about length, sometimes just the first movement of a classical symphony lasted at least as long as this whole album. The members of Pink Floyd were raised listening to classical music and I kind of think of a lot of their longer songs, like Echoes and certainly Atom Heart Mother, are harkening back to music they knew and loved. ✌💗🖖
Yep, I love a nice long track too! Thanks for watching.
Pink Floyd - Have a Cigar
It's on the list :) Thanks for watching!
Whats not to like about Pink Floyd? They are perfect! By the way, nice t-shirt, man 😉
Thanks! Rach enjoyed SORROW a lot more - check that one out. Thanks for watching! More Floyd to come soon. Cheers
I too have the same love affair with this song. It’s a masterpiece
It's amazing! Thanks for watching.
My fav album, Dark Side Of The Moon.
Fantastic album! Got some tracks from that on the list :)
Thanks for watching
Can we appreciate the fact that he replied to everyone?!❤️❤️
Edit: my man kinda looks like Dom Sibley (if anyone watches cricket)
Ha, thanks - I'm trying :)
Also, I had to Google Dom Sibley, not sure I see it, but thanks - he's a good looking dude :)
One for all the dog lovers out there...
:)
Thanks for watching!
@@RDMusicExchange 👍
Great job ! enjoying the channel I hope we get to see some reactions to tool thanks much!
Thanks for watching - yes more Tool to come :)
Great reaction! Even though it wasn't Rachel's cup of tea, she was a sport about it so no complaints there. Was actually quite enjoyable to watch actually. I realize you have some ideas as to which ones she might like, and while not knowing what you had in mind I thought I might respectfully suggest a few. Working my way backwards chronologically... Take It Back, What Do you Want From Me, Keep Talking (PULSE version), One Slip, Terminal Frost, Not Now John, The Hero's Return, Young Lust, Run Like Hell, Sheep, Have A Cigar, Any Colour You Like (PULSE version), Time, Money, Childhood's End, Free Four, The Gold, It's In the..., One Of These Days (Pompeii '72 version), Astronomy Domine (PULSE version), and maybe Let There Be More Light.
Thanks for watching! Lots of great suggestions there - Thanks. I know she'll dig some of those!
The album as a whole is, in my opinion, is their best. Don’t get me wrong, I am a HUGE FLOYD FAN!
I'm with you! Thanks for watching. Check out our reaction to Sorrow if you haven't already. Rach connects with that a lot more :)
You both are Fine! O like watch your reactions! Thank you!!
Thanks!
I saw The Floyd live in November 1974 and they played a song called " You Gotta Be Crazy", which ultimately became " Dogs" on the " Animals" album. Also a song called " Raving and Drooling" , which became " Sheep" on that album. Strangely, both songs were left off " Wish You Were Here" in 1975, then reworked in 1977. History lesson over.
Yes, I've got those on the Wish You Were Here re-issue CD. Very cool to hear them.
Those two tracks were dropped partially in response to the heavy sales of a Winter Tour '74 bootleg album. It was recorded at my first ever gig (Trentham Gardens ballroom in the UK).
One of my favorite PF albums for more than four decades.
Pink Floyd is and will always be my most favorite band. Nightwish and Ayreon follow.
Me too! Thanks for watching!
There's an innate sense that makes you love Pink Floyd. The rest will find a time for a cup of tea ☕️ 😂
One sugar please :)
I appreciate Rachel's point of view - Pink Floyd isn't everyone's cup of tea. I can see how the song could be seen as a long one for a novice listener. Always cool to see the reaction of a first time listener to a song I have heard over 40 years now.
Yeah, I wasn't sure how she would react, but that's all part of the fun! Check out our SORROW reaction, she connected with that a lot more. And we just did ONE OF THESE DAYS from Live at Pompeii which was fun too!
Thanks for watching
Hey Guys!!! FINALLY, ... a YT Reactor Mentions Gilmour's BEST Solo AND MY Favorite Lyrics about People who "Throw their Weight Around", either in Business or Life in General!!! BRILLIANT SONG!!! I LOVE this Entire album!!! What Genius it took to take "Animal Farm" and Create a Musical Masterpiece!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Nothing like throwing her in the deep end with Dogs out the gate. Lol. One of my favorite tracks of theirs
Go big or go home, I say :). Thanks for watching!
hahaha... Rachel: 'this is 17 minutes long' - play her Echoes (the proper full-length album version) hahaha Respect & Peace
It's on the list, but we are working up to it! :)
I am at the “it’s too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around “ stage in my life. But I am trying.
Ha - I'm with you! It's a line that is always floating around in the back of my mind! Thanks for watching - More Floyd coming soon :)
Me aswell. Good luck to you
Bonjour, I'm a prog rock fan from Montréal....I've just look your reactions video that was very interesting...natural and funny...I have read some of the comments and I agree with the ones that suggest you to listen Comfortably Numb from the live concert Pulse (I would think that it could convinced Rachel...maybe)...it's an extraordinary live performance and the solo is even better than the studio version...and you have that visual experience of the Pink Floyd concerts....of course it's a late show in the Pink Floyd history (1994) so it's not the basic Pink Floyd...Waters is not there (but Gilmour, Mason and Wright are there) and they have some good musicians with them....even if you don't make a video out of it, have a look it really worth it.
Thanks Pierre!
We have watched a couple of tracks from Pulse already, as well as some others. Check out our Pink Floyd Playlist for what we've watched so far.
More to come very soon!
Thanks for watching!
I find it slightly eerie that I agree with absolutely everything you said... but not too eerie.
Ha - thanks. I don't think I'm being to controversial on this one 😄. Thanks for watching!
Animals. I will put it up against all the great works of the last 60 years and place it at the top. It's just a magical album from start to finish. Pure art.
Me too!
Thanks for watching!
That middle bit has be just be sit back..close eyes and climb into it.
Agreed. Thanks for watching! More Floyd to come :)
Greatest floydtrack bar none. Last album before they became a bit too wingie. By the by, Rachel is gorgeous. Worth the video just for that.
Thank - I'm a lucky man indeed! Thanks for watching - more Floyd to come soon
Oh lordy day... She soooo did not enjoy that . 😢 At least she listened to it. Still a keeper.
1977 - The year, I born . It is a mystery (ah-, ha , ha )
Much of the music I love was created before or around the time I was born. Good music just doesn't get old 😉. Thanks for watching and for the sub. Some more Floyd (and other great stuff) to come soon.
@@RDMusicExchange you are welcome.. exactly , and I love this album , 'Animals '.
I will be waiting for more videos of this enormous band
Rachels point is true and was levelled against a lot of concept and prog albums of this period. It is gratuitous, indulgent, long-winded plus thought provoking and I love it. x
Ha - me too! :) Thanks for watching
A good line! But the groove ……..❤️
Hmmmmm. Now I remember! I had forgotten what happened to my 2nd marriage. There is still time to save yours. Some mind alteration and the 1994 Pulse Concert should do the trick. Lol!
😂😂 Come back this weekend - you may be pleasantly surprised! 😉
Nice reaction 👍🏻,
Indeed you do need some patience at the middel part 😏.
Maybe some Marillion songs next...?
What about 'Ocean Cloud', now that's another great (and long) journey 🌊🚣♂️🌊
Stay tuned for more! :) Thanks for watching!
Excellent vid. Hope you consider one day reacting to the studio album versions of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" and Emerson Lake & Palmer's "C'est la vie".
It's on the list :) More Floyd to come - thanks for watching!
Imagine 1977, being just age 16 and your older brother buys this album and new pair of grade A earphones. Just Imagine.
That sounds amazing!!
Thanks for watching! More Floyd to come soon. Cheers
Comfortably Numb is well recognized as the greatest solo of all time (beside StH) but my two favorite Floyd solos are on Animals. Pigs and Dogs. I love Pigs because of the heavy crunch pedal that Gilmour never used much before
Yeah, that's a great one too! Let's face it - they are all great :) Stick around for more Floyd to come soon :)
I've seen a couple of Roger Waters live shows and as dark as a lot of the material is, it's always struck me the sense of cheekiness he conveys during portions of the live performances, often in places where you least expect it. The little poker game routine during the darkest most atmospheric portion of 'Dogs' being a prime example. He hams it up pretty good as well during the Wall tour as he's putting on the fascist dictator garb. Go figure. 😏
Yep - agree. I've loved all of the Roget Waters shows that I've seen. I'm planning on showing Rach one of the tracks from his shows in a future episode. Thanks for watching!
Really have to listen to the Whole Album as it's a "Concept " album!! WOW!! This Entire Album "Animals " Brings back So many memories!!
To add to my comment, Have to pay Close attention to the lyrical content as well as the music!! Definite message being sent here throughout the Entire album!!! Hands Down, Definitely my Absolute Favorite Pink Floyd album!!
Yep, agreed. Not sure I'd get Rach to agree to that though :)
@@RDMusicExchange All you can do is Try 🤣
@@RDMusicExchange I actually had this on 8 Track!! Guess I'm telling my age right now!!
Does your Wife has a Sister, who´s loving Rock Music :)
Yes, but she's also taken ;). Thanks for watching!
Yes, Animals is a great album and unfortunately very underrated. But I have a completely different opinion that the cd sounds better than a vinyl record. I think you've never heard vinyl without poops and campfire sounds over a good base ;-)). Just a joke - it can of course sound great across all mediums and Pink Floyd is worth listening to either way anyway! Best wishes @all from hamburg (germany) and thanks for sharing great music to all younger people.
I think she might like some Nightwish. Try Ghost Love Score live in Whacken, epic symphonic metal with the best female singer on the planet.
Cool - thanks for the suggestion!
for somebody new to this, it´s difficult to consume it singled out, out of context. now: sheep.
It's not next, but it's on the list :)
Are you guys going to Tool? Theyre coming your way. I live in Vancouver, Canada. They arent coming this way yet. I had purchased tickets for the last tour but it was cancelled. You guys should go.
We live in Sydney Australia (I'm from the UK). They were here in Feb 20 and I took my son to see them - it was amazing!
Hoping they come back here after they have done the rest of the world :)
Some of my friend in London are going though.
Best album but my favourite solo is Gilmour on echoes
That is a great solo! Thanks for watching!
"Gratuitous" can be a nice adjective that can come into mind for some long musical passages, true. But keep in mind that "setting the tone" was the guys prime directive. And thus some "gratuitous" passages began to be absolutely necessary.
Thanks for watching!
If you haven’t done any of Stephen Wilson ‘s projects / Porcupine Tree give them a listen - Rachel might enjoy “The Raven who refused to sing” czcams.com/video/n8sLcvWG1M4/video.html or ROUTINE czcams.com/video/tMfGp79fJCQ/video.html … I can also suggest BIG BIG TRAIN - ‘Masters of Light ‘ ALBUM is a great introduction either EAST COAST RACER czcams.com/video/saA2bMLvD2g/video.html or TRANSIT OF VENUS ACROSS THE SUN. Gilmour used to call Roger Mr Misery-guts … perhaps try some of the Gilmour revisit to Floyd material at GDAŃSK that’s three members of Floyd there anyway Rick and David and Rogers replacement on bass Guy Pratt. Plus Phil Manzanera from Roxy Music on second guitar.
Thanks for the suggestions!
And thanks for watching!
7:10. Yep, me too. So out of character and yet so typical. The dissonants, the phasing. I can’t help but keep trying to get it right myself
Cheers.
Thanks for watching!
David Gilmour can play a single note and have it sound sublime and grandiose; this is his greatest skill!! As far as vocals... he does exactly what the song needs; nothing more nor less!! Overall? It's never been about how phenomenal he is... it's been ALL about how tastefully he uses his voice, guitar effects, string bending techniques, finesse and style!! Is he the greatest guitarist ever? No. He however takes you on a journey with him, the song and his guitar!! Pink Floyd & Gilmour are The G.O.A.T.
Pink Floyd was formed in 1965... their (most likely) last album was "The Endless River" in 2014. PF had 15 studio albums... 3 live albums, 9 compilation albums not to mention multiple live dvds and solo albums performed by below members of the band.
Syd Barrett (short-lived founder; guitar plus) the originator and quirky eccentric; inevitably the consequential muse. * January 6, 1946 (rip 2006)
Roger Waters (bass) was the cultivator (seed sower), the lyrically conceptual prodigy, secondary vocal and co-maestro of songwriting * September 6, 1943 (age 78 years)
David Gilmour (guitar) was the placidity, guitar virtuoso, the silky smooth voice and co-maestro; the equilibrium. * March 6, 1946 (age 75 years)
Richard Wright (keyboards) was the essential underlying symmetry; musical nurturer. Occasional singer. * July 28, 1943 (rip 2008)
Nick Mason (drums) was the heartbeat, structure and foundation; the sole member involved from the emergence of PF to the last recording. * January 27, 1944 (age 77 years)
FYI: The following Pink Floyd albums are Concept Albums (all songs together tell a complete story)... Dark Side Of The Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977) and The Wall (1979). The Final Cut (1983) is ify, as it was the last album with Roger Waters being in the band - leaving in 1985. *search on Wiki the album title to get the story behind the concept.
I myself suggest the following EPIC 10 live songs; the studio and "Brit Floyd" versions are phenomenal as well!! : 1) "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 2) "Hey You" 3) "Us and Them/Any Colour You Like/Brain Damage/Eclipse" (all 4 parts) 4) "High Hopes" 5) "Time/Breathe Reprise" 6) "Dogs" 7) "Sorrow" 8) "Pigs (3 different ones)" 9) "Welcome To The Machine" 10) "The Great Gig In The Sky" 11+) There's so many... !!
Fun Fact: "You don't need drugs to enjoy Pink Floyd but you definitely need Pink Floyd to enjoy your drink and drugs!!"
If you like Pink Floyd as much as it seems, sadly there is only ONE WAY you're going to see their music "live" in concert (2021+) other than an older dvd (or maybe Waters or Gilmour solo in concert; they're getting old my friend)... more importantly hearing the songs done exacting to the studio albums adding a very good example of the "live" light show... you may wanna check out the following group that's IMO far better than a tribute band!! The subsequent track is superbly performed by the tribute band "Brit Floyd" ~ Gilmour, Mason and Wright have said, "If they themselves wanted to see PF live, the only way that could ever happen is go see these guys." czcams.com/video/RnHu3D8stGE/video.html (one song from an entire 155 minute concert of PF Bliss; see comment at link for other tracks)
Final Note: Pink Floyd have left us the embodiment of their musical journey to share, enjoy and reflect upon. * always listen to Pink Floyd with headphones or an awesome sounding music system.

Roger Waters (Bassist; he left PF in 1985) and Friends did a live concert of the entire "Wall" double album in Germany (1990) right after the wall came down; very historic!! The stage was at least a block or more long... czcams.com/video/ohrFzuuUyi0/video.html
Here is the Wikipedia explanation of that concert: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wall_%E2%80%93_Live_in_Berlin

Thanks man, and thanks for the info. I'm already a massive Floyd fan though and have been for over 30 years, so am already aware of the info you written, but I appreciate it nonetheless. :)
I watched Roger Water's The Wall live on TV (and recorded it) back in 90 :)
I've also seen PF twice live, and Roger 5 times, including the recent Wall and Us and Them tours.
Nice one, thanks for watching (We did an episode on Sorrow (Live 94) that you might enjoy. Cheers D
Saw them in Chicago soldiers Field 😎
That would have been awesome! Thanks for watching. More Floyd to come!
👍👍👍
😄 Thanks for watching!
DEAR RACHEL: All I have to say is, on behalf of the global Pink Floyd fan community, I'm sorry that D has subjected you to one of the hardest-to-listen tracks of the better part of Pink Floyd's discography. Not because it's musically difficult -although it does have some musical interest- but because it's dark, somber, grim, gloomy, and it almost depletes you from any hope you had left for humankind. Making someone listen to it is not something you do to someone you presumably love. Rachel, you did well, stoically, and demonstrating interest and bravery, so thank you for that.
DEAR D: I get you, I get Pink Floyd, I know all the lyrics, the little inflections of Gilmour's guitar, and every smirk and turn of phrase by Roger Waters. But I also think that it's probably too much of a good thing for most people if it's not administered in the right amount. The right dose, however, may be more helpful to create a welcoming experience for Rachel, instead of making her want to run away to grab tea. Or a shotgun.
The cover IS a painting..
Nope. It's a photo. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd_pigs
You have to play 'em all now. Damn , Floyd is so great. Attention to details is bar none. Yeah , it's definately not pop music. It's for thinkers.
Thanks for watching - more Floyd to come!
Hi Dee and Rachel, greetings from the Netherlands. I enjoyed your reaction. Watching this, it made me wonder if you've ever listened to Nightwish? They are a symphonic metal band from Finland. Back in 2005 they recorded a tribute to Pink Floyd’s ‘High Hopes’, sung by their bass player. It is awesome and checking it out is worth it. czcams.com/video/IClqCyS4IRY/video.html
Nightwish's 3rd and current singer is the Dutch Floor Jansen. Floor has one of the best female voices in metal today. Nightwish songs are very diverse. There are epic and melodic songs, but there are also quite heavy ones and the next song could be very folky or even jazzy…. Their live performances are EPIC. If you want to hear an official Nightwish song with Floor’s vocals, listen to Ghost Love Score, recorded at Wacken 2013, in front of 82 000 people. Give it a try, you might be surprised… czcams.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/video.html
Thanks - no I haven't, bnut I'll give them a listen - thanks for the suggestion! And thanks for watching :)
@@RDMusicExchange Thank you for wanting to listen to them. You won't regret it. Take care!
As you obviously love amazing guitar work, try listening to, "Maggot Brain" by Funkadelic...Eddie Hazel is also an amazing guitarist. For the recording, Eddie was told to imagine that his mother had just died, and play what he felt...
That is a great track! I'll add it to the list :)
Pink Floyd " Excellent musicians "....hai fatto la scoperta dell'acqua calda signora !
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for watching!
have a look on CZcams at METAL TEENS react to pink floyd
Not a track I would of introduced with. Luckily Pink Floyd don't limit their fans with dark,angry tracks but do as a group span the genre spectrum with groovier numbers too, which Rach might find more appealing.That is the genius of this group. Sheep at the end of this album is very uplifting!
Yeah, took a punt with Dogs just because I love it so much :) Sheep is a good call. I've got some others in mind too. Thanks for watching!
Although broccoli is healthy, not everyone appreciates its special taste.
It seems to be the same for some music, and that's OK.
Personally, I don't like heavy metal, rap or pop music, and that's OK.
In French we say that; (but who can judge another person's taste?).
Very true - thanks for watching!
Gotta admit i'm a litte bit amused
:) Thanks for watching
Dee... i am 100% agreement with your Dave G solo choice - he kills on this album but this track is his 9th Symphony in my opinion Respect & Peace
Cheers mate!
Mate, she just doesn't "get" Pink Floyd, fair enough let her be and she can stop indulging you (she almost looked in pain there, at the very least bored ). Still a big thumbs up for your enthusiasm
You don't know until you try :). Got some more Floyd lined up soon, so we'll see if she enjoys them more. At least you know you'll get an honest reaction :)
1:00 The factory on the album looks like a sheep lying on its back. 🐑 😆
😂 Thanks for watching!
She just so much looks like she wants to be somewhere else!….. Damn!
Yep - Rach was not a fan of that one!
Check out our Sorrow and GGOTS videos - she enjoyed them a lot more.
At least you know you're getting an honest reaction :)
Thanks for watching!
More Floyd coming next week too :)
Besides the pond between us, I could have a beer with you
Ha - thanks mate! 🍻
