RIP Richard Wright. He shines as much as David Gilmour.
The last time Richard and David played Echoes live is beyond superb, definitely worth a listen
Shine on you crazy diamond 💎
A true classic.
For me, this is the blueprint for future Floyd music. It covers so much musically of what they did after this. Firmly and thankfully, puts the Barrett era in it's coffin.
Good reaction guys and well done Wayne for the initial selection.
I love the Barrett stuff, as well as his solo stuff, but definitely like a totally different band.. that being said, I could do without “The Wall” or anything after it, including the solo projects.
To each their own, I guess.
@@CANDOKNOWHOW correct 🙂
Epic. Thanks for that review SAD!
Any time Chuck!
The beautiful story of us. How we came to be and especially the live performance in Pompeii, how we suffer great catastrophes, and working together, how we overcome. Together.
Here's the statement from Gilmour why he will never perform Echoes live anymore. He sees Echoes primarily as a duet between him and Rick Wright. Because Rick had passed away, he will be always missing. czcams.com/video/3Z7GBoJxVkI/video.html
Thanks for sharing!
I listen this the first time with 14 years.
It was a great musical experiencia Hell and Heaven....
🎉 definitely a top 3 Floyd song for me! Did I tell y’all we got tickets for Gilmour in October? Can’t wait. Let’s go!!!
In the PF at Pompeii version, part 1, Nick Mason's drumming is amazing. already going wild at the first part, which you can't hear in the studio version.
We LOVE watching Nick play in the video!
The harmonies that David and Rick generate are otherworldly. There are numerous songs in the Floyd catalog that utilize their harmonies, and those are my most favorite Floyd songs. Alot of the first album with Syd Barrett songs were sung with Syd and Rick using the same harmony style. Gilmour took over all of Syds' vocal parts once he had left the building. I think Astronomy Domine sounds better with Dave and Rick versus the original with Syd and Rick.
One of the best vocal combos ever!
David and Rick were such loyal friends; I'm sure you heard that David didn't want to play Echoes after Rick's passing because he felt the song was a musical conversation between them.
In the third verse, i love the use of the phrase "inviting and inciting me..." It is a direct borrow from the Beatles, "Across the Universe," which had come out 2 years before. If you watch the Live at Pompeii version, either Wright or Gilmore reverses so one of then sings "inciting and inviting" while the other songs it correctly. If you look real closely right after, Gilmore gives a slight smirk. Make me smile every time.
How cool! Thanks for the info!
Pure art that will last until the end.
Music 2.0
So much greatness in one song. The live at Pompeii version is stunning.
Found this late night but fell asleep listening and woke up this fine Saturday and nice to resume with a million bright ambassadors of morning. Easily one of the most amazing songs of all time imo.
So much fun to share this experience with you. I wish you wouldn't apologize for stopping the music and sharing your thoughts. But I suppose you're maybe sensitive about that because so many commenters give you a hard time. I wish they would just enjoy what you do and if they don't have anything nice to say they should avoid wasting their time typing out negative crap.
It was fun to hear your thoughts. I absolutely love the space that Nick creates with his drumming. I just think of how he looks in the Pompei movie playing this and I think of Roger's quote in that movie about how Pink Floyd's music isn't so much about the notes they play, it's more about the spaces between the notes. My paraphrase. Anyone who likes Floyd needs to watch that movie.
That movie is so great. Thanks for watching our reaction!
8:09 "We cower in our shelters with our hands over our ears
Lloyd-Webber's awful stuff runs for years and years and years
An earthquake hits the theatre
But the operetta lingers
Then the piano lid comes down
And breaks his fucking fingers
It's a miracle"
Heard this first time at 16 years old after dropping my first hit of windowpane
In the early 90s there was a European space exploration, during which they were able to pick up the sounds and vibrations that came from earth, those sounds are the same sounds the Floyd used on this more than 20 years earlier.
Lol love that
@@SightAfterDark Zappa playing with the Floyd 1969.Totally tripped out, Zappa said he did´nt even remember being there....how about a bit of time traveling, on the video of this occasion at 12,50, there is a guy not really
dressed for the time period, Orange jacket..White jeans...speaking on a mobile´Cell phone....1969.
Gilmour is playing bass on the studio album . That’s why it’s sounds so good . Roger wasn’t the musician that could have the licks to play with these guys . He was only the lyricist . He left the music to Dave . But what a driving force he was with his words 🎉
Facts
Next would be
Ocean Cloud by Marillion 🙏🏻☁️🚣🏻♂️⛈️🌊
Epic voyage across the Ocean (the song is dedicated to an ocean rower who, as the only one in the world, has rowed single-handedly across the Atlantic ocean in both directions)
Thanks for the reaction!! My first Pink Floyd album and the one that turned me into a Floydian back in 1972. A day doesn't pass that I don't listen to Floyd. There cure what ailments. If you want to know where the weird sounds came from listen to their Ummugumma album. It is a total experiment with sound, and you can hear the Syd Barret influence. I read years ago that they developed the quadraphonic sound system, and I understand their concerts are basically in surround sound. Unfortunately, I never got to see my all-time favorite band. Thanks again for the reaction.
They are so awesome. Thanks for sharing Robert. At least we’ve still got the music!
Sifa said "Space Echo" 🥰 As a guy who owned a Roland Space Echo in the days when Guitar Center had them in stock, I can say that with my Space Echo, my ARP Odyssey and a bit of effort I think I could reproduce the sounds from the trippy part of Echoes. A Hammond B3 would be useful too.
I loved my Space Echo - should never have let it get away from me.
Awesome!
Great TRACK and great reaction you guys.......................nothing wrong with a little "early Floyd "
Hot summer in the A, caterpillars crawling, no cicadas.
Guys i remember smokin a lot of marijuana and listening with headphones and melting into my bean bag chair..lol..i was blown away the first time i heard it and ive been a Pink Floyd fan ever since..i love the way you guys break down a song musically and lyrically.You guys are musicians and know what your talking about.love your reactions....why yall dont have 100k members is beyond me.😊 ps...yall need to react to ONE OF THESE DAYS...im. going to chop you into little pieces..lol
One day! Thanks for the support Ronald!
Another fun fact, Roger picks up on the Andrew Loyd Weber rip off on his album, Amused to Death...... It´s a Miracle.
Find a movie called 'Crystal Voyager' which uses this song with film of surfers riding wave tunnels.
That sounds awesome

My first and all time favorite Floyd album. I remember being a young teen and stealing a little bud from my older brothers stash in his room, then sneaking a bowl, walking barefoot outside with this playing through the open windows, grass around my toes, feeling the breeze on my face and looking around at everything.
Sounds like a good time!
@@SightAfterDark HIGH-ly recommended! ☺️
LOL
I prefer everything before Dark Side of the Moon, as masterful as everything after that is. Echoes helped mine out a fertile cavity of exploration in the firmament of my mind back in the day....
Well said!
My choice for their best song/epic, after exploring space and experimental music and doing movie soundtracks post Syd Barrett, their sound seemed to crystallize on Meddle. It was a launching pad to future albums and epics that would cement them as one of the best bands ever. For me, the Echoes journey should also include live video classic versions at Pompeii 1972 in their prime and when David had Richard in his band for the On An Island album and tour, see them do Echoes live in Gdansk 2006. It is one last tour for them with this song and quite emotional, worth viewing. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Now try Echoes, live at Gdansk. It will blow you away.......
It truly transcends what we know as "music".
1 of Art Bell's favorites.
It has only occurred to me recently that Mike Oldfield must have learned a lot from this piece
Could definitely see that!
If you really do love this song which I think you do like all of us do you definitely need to check out David Gilmour live in Gdansk 2006!!! That's the last time this was performed live with David Gilmour and Richard Wright and the Polish philharmonic orchestra!! It's the closest to the original audio recording I've ever seen played live but does sound a bit different here and there but still almost perfect!! If not reacting to it just listen and watch for yourself!
Thanks for the tip!
Wtf that pause in the final transition, not necesary hahaha
lol a 30 minute video, and that’s all you have to say?
Do U guys know an albatross ?
We think we heard that word in a Yes song. Otherwise, no.
The Fleetwood Mac song?
😂 this is a reaction review.....
we won't know what your thinking if unless you pause and tell us.
If anyone wants to simply enjoy the music, they can, GO BUY THE ALBUM!
Agreed!
That’s right! If they know what’s good for em! 😊
