- Hi Gang!!
it's Nick mason's saucerful of Secrets Funtime with this Syd classic..
Filmed before the Election was called and the coup started..
Thanks to Andrew Evans for fab production.
Yes I know my shirt's undone and there's no Scorsese reference but there'll be 2 next time to make up..
Learning To Fly is a MUST- great song (complete with the Young Lust lick at the end) 😉 👍🏻👍🏻
I wouldn’t really reduce to the last part only, young lust has overall a magnificent bass line
"Learning to Fly" please... since you kindly offered. Thanks for the series, Guy!
Henry Ball and sorrow too
I know you've already done 3 Toy Matinee tunes, but I can't get enough of that album! Things She Said would be my request, but I'm not fussy. Loving the series so whatever you do gets a thumbs up regardless!
Love the look of that shiny fretboard. I'll throw one in for Learning to Fly.
As ever thank you Guy. I was never a Rickenbacker fan but this has just swayed me, sounded beautiful! +1 for Learning to Fly, love that tune.
I like how so many of these comments say "Stop talking politics and stick to the music"... Uh... It's Pink Floyd! You know, the band that wrote "Us & Them", "The Fletcher Memorial Home", "A Great Day for Freedom" and especially "Pigs" (where he name checks Mary Whitehouse)? I think Guy's comment was quite diplomatic compared to so many other videos out there.
Keep it up Guy, loving these vids. P.S. I might contact you about possibly giving your "One of These Days" video a cameo in my upcoming Pink Floyd album reviews series. Would gladly invite you on to discuss any of them?
I can't believe that some people have disliked this. What's not to like? Keep doing what you're doing Mr Pratt - very entertaining.
Just some Trump supporters maybe
Today is my lucky day. I just found Guy Pratt on CZcams. Subscribed! The stories and humor are fantastic... as is the bass playing. I'll give a +1 to Learning to Fly (esp. how you land it on the Pulse version). Thank you for sharing these videos and stay safe!
Waters's bass playing in the early days really was excellent. i know he eventually started saying things like "i was never a bass player" but damn dude, so many of his early riffs are just super melodic, all-over-the-place and bouncy
Amazing, a pleasure to watch such an artist…. Look fwd to May gigs fingers crossed..
Love watching the NMSOS stuff. I’d been waiting so patiently for the release and was delighted when it appeared at the door. Thanks to you and the rest!
Its a really listen.
That was beautiful! I don't know whose skills it highlights more, Roger's for coming up with it, or yours for really polishing it up and putting a spotlight on it.
I didn't realise how complicated See Emily is. Roger Waters loves playing octave notes. It's all over the bass parts to Pink Floyd songs. Great stuff Guy.
I have not heard this tune in ages....TY for posting 👍🎶🎸....
& yes....definitely going in right direction...RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸😎
This is my favorite of the old Syd days. You do a great job on it Guy.
I have really enjoyed all of these lockdown treats and found some great new music to explore. Can't wait to see the Saucerfuls in the new year. Keep safe.
Wow! I can't believe I've only just found your CZcams! I have been binging all of your videos and I really appreciate this incredible insight!
My first introduction to Pink Floyd was the completely bonkers Relics album, that went missing a few years ago during a house move (well, break up actually.)
Of course had to replace it.
Will have to source the Tab for See Emily Play etc….
Thank you for essentially laying down the unintended challenge.
Awesome, loved that tune as a kid. Never realized how GREAT the bass part was.
I saw NMSOS in Edinburgh last week and it was awesome. Thanks for a great gig and getting this music on stage again.
Just want to say thanks for these wonderful video's. I actually got into Icehouse more thanks to them. I know the hits but am now enjoying the first few albums for the first time. So any Icehouse gem would be nice, but wouldn't object to "Learning to fly" . Thanks again .
You called it!
That was awesome!!! - More "ICEHOUSE" Please! and "Learning To Fly".
Always thought I heard a bit of "The Real Me" in the middle... Great to see I was not the crazy one on this, hearing things that are not there... Great work!
Love the Entwistle touch. Especially since that's his old jazz hanging up in the background there!
Love the sound and look of rickenbacker basses, thick full and gorgeous, love Chris squire and early geddy lee
Lemmy !!!
Long story… stick with me. Back in April Covid almost killed me - a month in a medically-induced coma wasn’t how I planned to spend the start of spring. However, thanks to the NHS I lived [just about] but the autoimmune response trigger by the virus induced an arthritic reaction in my hands. After 45 years of mindless twanging I can no longer play guitar. However, I can still play bass, my first instrument... hence me being here on this channel. Keep posting… and if I’m ever down in Brighton the drinks are on me.
The Roundhouse recording is excellent - I had the good fortune to be there that night. Keep up the good work, please. You're making an old man very happy.
Fascinating - you're so right. Those early basslines were utterly bonkers. Ole Rog was all over the frets! Thanks Guy. Top bloke.
Yes, another fantastic vid and loving the Saucerful of Secrets album btw,
Ahh...toss up for Learning To Fly or a Icehouse song???...only one answer there Guy!
Stay safe and keep these brilliant LDL coming :)
Another underated Bass player, Guys a phenomenal bass player, 🔥🔥👌🏽
Many years ago, I was 13 or 14, watching Pulse on VHS and seeing you playing the opening notes on Learning to Fly on that Status... Wow, that was so cool😎
Love your Saucerful of Secrets blue ray. Awesome job!
What a Beautiful wood on the fretboard.... love "the Rick". great video, thanks Guy.
Still haven't gotten my Saucers vinyl but the rendition of See Emily Play is so playful and fresh sounding, love it!
Any more Toy Matinėe?... Just thought I'd add my thanks to you Guy for the brilliant introduction to 'Toy Matinee' a while back in Lock-up part 1 (or should that be cock-up part 1)...
Whatever happened in the opening chapters of the 21st century; I missed this particular nugget of gold... (I don't remember radio 2 airing 'last plane out' though I might be wrong)... so fast forward 20 years and you happen to bring this magnificent album to our attention. I managed to find a used copy on the ebay site and even better was able to utilise a voucher deal knocking a 'fiver' off the cd price... All great tracks and (to my ears) one very much in the vein of Steely Dan... which is fine by me! This album has provided a much needed 'feelgood factor' in what has been a pretty deplorable year. Stay sane and thanks for your contribution to entertain and delight with your reminiscences and musicianship.
Thanks so much mate. Other things from other bands would be cool but hell yeah for Learning to Fly! The Pulse version was/is must watch whenever I get a bit drunk. Love it.
Your glued to our election, and I’m glued on your channel. Thanks for sharing. I’m curious what records you have in your collection. I’ll love you to guest on my morning show, Coffee & Vinyl where we talk Vinyl. Good day!
Enjoying all of your videos, plus I just read your wonderful book. Thanks for the copious wit and humor in both!
fantastic bassline! incredible song: look fresh as written tomorrow! thanks for keeping her alive!
Learning to fly!!!! Please!!!! Thank you for doing this, you are amazing!
never though it was so busy, so great. That and to hear an ex SB guy singing Syd Barretts, thats funny
Your ruddy NMSOS album has cost me a fortune! I felt I ought to get the authentic experience, so ended up buying it on vinyl, which meant I had to buy a turntable, which meant I needed to buy more albums to play on it! No regrets though. Thanks again, listening to this was a blast.
Learning to Fly would be great and particularly interesting to take your views on how it evolved from the album track to the live version we all know and love!
Top man . . . Love the videos . . . Just keep doing them Guy, they make a lot of us smile :-)
Awesome video as usual Guy! Also yeah please do Learning to Fly, love your playing on that one on the numerous Floyd live albums!
Once again, quite good.
Ashdown preamp sections are really good for that sort of stuff. I love mine.
'Quite' praise indeed.
Yes!!!! I am LOVING the Saucerful of Secrets video. I was thrilled when I heard you guys were doing it and utterly crushed when I discovered that I had a gig booked on the day you came to Atlanta Ga. I missed you. The pre Darkside years are my favorite and have really been ignored by the PF camp. Ironically, the spirit of those recordings are very much en vogue again. One of the things I really liked was how the band (Saucer) were not too precious with the material. In not feeling the need to play the album tracks note for note, you really managed to capture the spirit of The Pink Floyd. :)
Thanks for all you do. Hopefully live concerts will come back soon and I can catch you when you return to Atlanta.
Learning to Fly PLEASE!!! (and also the rest of Pulse, cd, dvd, vhs, bootlegs takes) Thank you.
loved this!!! also...just helping that LEARNING TO FLY tsunami =D or anything you did on PULSE, that show really was something to study forever and ever. thanks for the great music =)
Good to see you again Guy, great video as always. Been enjoying the podcasts as well!
Beatiful bass lines , thanks Guy.
Awesome Guy! I love the Real Me reference too. This is actually a really cool bass line that Roger came up with. Cool seeing you do it up close.
I was a young bass player when I bought the album when it first came out. My girlfriend and I were going to name our first daughter after this song. A long and unmentionable bass playing career later,, to be out of work due to the viri, thank you for the insight, yes, I caught the Entwhistle lick,, thanks, and peace, Ampeg, oz
So cool you did a LDL about See Emily Play
Roger loved his octaves, and they always work in all the right places. I was blown away the first time I heard The Real Me, so simple yet effective. So much space for the bass to work in that track, whilst Keith Moon goes off on one.
Yes PLEASE!!!! "Learning to Fly" Thanks, Guy!
Oh ok, I’ll go with everyone else.. Learning to fly.....pleeaaase😘
Hey Guy, thanks for the uploads and also for the additional stories that lie behind some of the tracks, always fascinating to listen to events that we normal folks would never have known.
Learning to fly is one of my favourite floyd songs. Would love to see you do that
Hi Guy, you reminded me 1977 Rick 4001, actually inside a closet 2000km far from where I'm locked-down, in Dollis Hill. Sweet and sour thought. Great video as always. Thank you!
Yes please, would love to see a demonstration of "Learning To Fly," Guy.
I do love the punch of the old Rickey , top stuff
I shall be alone in asking for this but as a Floyd fan who saw them playing with Syd, I bought Saucerful of Secrets the day it came out. I took it home, played it and was blown away. So, “Summoning my cosmic powers and glowing slightly from my toes” how about Let There Be More Light?
If you're open to requests I'd like to lobby for Icehouse's The Flame! The bassline is immense and the song deserves to be better known.
Great video, cheers Guy. Coverdale was, indeed, hilarious DARLINGS!
Rickenbacker's have always been my favourite guitar maker, but I'm never going to be able to afford one. Sticking to my squiers it is ha 🙄👍
Grazie 😍 un bacio da Roma 😘 che spettacolo ! The best !
Learning to fly
Great bass work for the Years Of The Canine CD, too. Definitely quite fun to play. The first music I ever bought was Relics on 8 track with $5 that I got for my eighth birthday. See Emily Play blew my mind, along with the rest of it, even though I was intimately familiar with Pink Floyd, which had already been my favorite band since my earliest memories of Ummagumma coming from my parents' bedroom. Fast forward a few decades, and I was playing Guy's basslines with YOTC here across the pond for a while. Life is interesting like that. Cheers from Omaha, Guy.
Dude, freaking thank you for... gee, it's even hard to list! CHEERS !!!
Excellent Guy, great intro and playing, good times ahead one of these days ;-)
Another goodie. One of the first singles I bought with 'own money'. Nice to see an Ashdown VU bulb working ;)
Guy, carry on what your doing , I’m loving all your ldl’s
Always look forward to your videos and love watching you play. Really cool!
Would be great to watch you play Icehouse's The Great Divide if you feel like it's worthy. :) Such a great song.
Take care and thanks for making this lockdown a little easier. Truly appreciated.
Great bass line, lovely early Syd Barret era Pink Floyd song!
Great stuff as ever Guy...I asked once before Discipline of Love...I'll send my Steinberger over to you to play it. Brian.
Thanks, Guy. Enjoyed the close-up bass playing the insightful political intro.
Great to see you back and fingers crossed I get to see you play in Edinburgh next year 🤞😎
Lockdown Licksers, I’ve finally seen
Guy Pratt’s Episode Seventeen
And I must say that I
Am concerned for poor Guy
And I think you all know what I mean
His appearance at best is “unkempt”
(From such comments he’s not exempt)
And I’ll say right up front
That I’m gonna be blunt
Though I know I’ll attract Guy’s contempt
The first thing of note was the shirt
“Do the buttons up!” my wife did blurt
Then she nearly went cripple
When Guy flashed a nipple
Yes indeed, a few buttons wouldn’t hurt!
And what can I say about his hair?
It was here, it was there... everywhere!
Like he’d been in a fight
With a Dyson all night
It’s just lucky there’s not a lot there
And he seemed a bit dazed and confused
My wife tried to watch, but refused
“The poor guy’s half dead
He should head off to bed
From this video he should be excused.”
“He’s been watching the U.S. election”
I explained to my wife, with affection
“He’s a politics junky
That’s why he looks funky
He won’t sleep till he’s seen Trump’s ejection”
In the comments there was some resentment
Of Guy’s political presentment
But he said, “Take a hike
I’ll say what I like
Go elsewhere if you feel discontentment!”
Once again Guy’s bass playing was sweet
See Emily Play, what a treat!
But Guy, if I may
One last thing I will say
Before the next video you tweet
I’m serious here, I’m not jokin’
These words surely need to be spoken
Guy, you’re an adult
Is your state a result
Of that purple stuff you’ve been seen smokin’?
EDITOR'S CHOICE LETTER OF THE WEEK. The shirt isn't left undone, two of the buttonholes are frayed so it keeps popping open is all..I'm sleeping better now though..
@@guypratt7104 Good for you, Guy. I've just found I have sleep apnea, and now I have to go to bed with a tennis ball strapped between my shoulder blades so I don't roll onto my back. I'm sure I'd dream of Wimbledon if I actually slept deep enough to dream! 😒
Aue as we say here in NZ. Buttons done or undone, hair tousled or slick - doesnt matter either way - Guy plays like an angel.
See Emily Play is beautiful
I love this version
" Up the dusty end" Need that on a T shirt. x
Learning to fly. 🤘🏻
I'm impatient for the concert, finally after more than 40 years, I will be able to see these songs in colour!
I love that song and the sound of a Rickenbacker played with pick 🐧
Love the Ashdown, good to see a proper VU meter.
That drummer in the recording sure knows his early Pink Floyd.
I know what you mean about the election I've been the same! Great song! Frigging awesome Bass line! My mate saw you guys in Saucer full and didn't tell me?! I used to play in a psychedelic rock group with him many moons ago and bloody loved it! Is there any chance of you guys doing another tour?? For my sanity please say yes xD
From now on I’m calling the upper notes on my bass “the dusty end “.
As always Guy super human bobsleigh man. Many thanks for your time. I don’t care what you play it’s all great to me. Keep on keeping on dude 😎
Effortlessly played well done!!
Learning to fly please!! These are great!!
Learning to fly would be incredible!
Just bought the album, really looking forward to hearing it.
This song seemed to of passed me by! yep, great baseline, Rik sounds great also. Some Paul Grey -esque stuff going on there as well :) Thanks Guy.
Probably just the spectrum on a Ric to be honest.
Thank you so much for this series. It is a great entertainment.
Since you offer it, I’d love watching a video on Learning to fly. I started playing bass after hearing you playing it on Delicate sound of thunder.
The Rickenbacker is so beautiful! Are you using normally both pickups?
Thank again and stay safe.
yes both.
Played this for many many years and yes, it's a sit down and listen only? But have totally nailed the studio version, but without a pick....opps! But at least on a Ricky?........ Love your Who bit in the middle section....wow
Yet again the incompetence of the government enables CZcams content for us.
Also loving the podcasts, the only ones I subscribe to
I Just love these videos!!! Please Please keep them coming
"Right up the dusty end" - ha ha ha!
I had a ticket to see you guys at the Roundhouse, flying in from Norway. But a friend decided to end it, so that plan had to be scrapped. Had a ticket for the show in Denmark this year, but that didn't quite work out either. So now I have a ticket for Denmark '21! Crossing fingers!
