    Today, we're going to learn the top 10 best guitar chord shapes on the iconic album ''Dark Side Of The Moon'' by Pink Floyd.
    This album taught me many chord shapes that I still use very often to this day, and if you don't know some of them, this lesson is going to be a treat :-)
    I teach some of the chords from these songs:
    - Breathe (In The Air)
    - Time
    - The Great Gig In The Sky
    - Money
    - Us And Them
    - Brain Damage
    - Eclipse
    Hope you will enjoy this special Pink Floyd lesson!

    Amazing as always. I always play Cmaj7 with the G because I play acoustic and I think it sounds better. Floyd loves their Maj and Mi7ths. Because I am such a Floyd head, I gravitated towards the 7th. They just sound so spicy and full of life. Gilmore mastered placing them perfectly in the sonic soundscape.

    Hi Antoine, I watch you video's almost every time, just to inspire my creative brain. I don'talways comment, but I am around 🙂. This one I have to omment, because I love David Gilmour. Your video makes clear that Gilmour doesn't use adult chords and other sophisticated stuff. But his tasteful pick of the "simple" chords combined with his timing and phrasing makes PF so very special. For example he uses a progression on which he very subtle goes from a C7 to a C7sus4 and just touches that sus4 for very short period of time...this sounds so tasteful. And that is what Gilmour is, tasteful and accessible.
    My sincer compliments on this video's! You analyze the chord shapes of the Dark Side album on a brilliant way and make the chords accessible for everyone. I also like your enthusiasm. Hope the video's work for you to reach new students. Take care! Greetings from the Netherlands.

    Great Video Antoine. 5 Minutes practicing these and you feel so much more fulfilled as a guitar player. Would you be able to do one on U2? I would love to get a handle on what the Edge does and where it comes from.

      So many bands on my list, and U2 is one of them. Stay subscribed ;-) thanks John!
