Nick Mason is probably the most underrated drummer of all the rock bands of that era. Highly talented drummer.
I agree .100% Peace and Love
Yeah, but he's still looking for that slice of crustless pie....lol
one of these days he is going to cut each drummer into little peaces. HE IS ACE but was too much limited from Roger after Animals especially.
He is amazing. And what a humorous and kind person! I saw him 9 times with his own band. Best concerts I've ever been to.
I concur. He could go off or keep it low key. He did whatever was needed.
Gilmour and Wright's harmonies are definitely next level. The tone of Gilmour's voice is even sweeter than his guitar.
Definitely. They were perfect for each other. It's a shame that Wright didn't sing more lead though.
“Pink Floyd are my favourite hip hop band.” Possibly the greatest thing ever said on a CZcams reaction video.
If you really want to see Nick Mason shine on drums, you NEED to check out One Of These Days also live at Pompeii!
Definitely. He also manages to drop a stick and pick up another without dropping a beat.
Great shout
No doubt,it my favourite of nick manson❤
They were visionaries of sound. In the ancient city of Pompeii, this was a performance not to be forgot. Hope you also do Echoes live at Gdansk, Poland from 2006; before Rick Wright passed in 2008. Very moving. David Gilmour (lead guitar, lead vocals) and Rick Wright's (keyboards/synths, vocals) harmonies are beautiful. David said that after this, he wouldn't perform Echoes anymore because of Rick's absence; that the song was a musical conversation between the two.
I agree the last performance of Echoes at Gdansk is a must. A special performance.
Best sentence I've heard in forever. "Pink Floyd is my favorite Hip Hop band". Touché
That keyboard sound you were asking about toward the end is a piano played through a Leslie speaker. Gives it a shimmering otherworldly feel
Come on, more Pink Floyd at Pompeii to kick-start my Monday morning? Oh hell yeah, you guys are the best. Another killer choice, love how you both get right into every aspect of the experience. Peace and love from Canada!☮
Had to wake and bake for this.
@@stevepincombe3836 This is the way 😀
La and Che are into all kinds of music. I think Sabbath and Pink Floyd are their favorites, but like us, sometimes a great song by someone else can sway it a tad! Farewell To Kings is a great album guys. It's time!
@@Greg-io1ip This is the way.
I cannot wait for you guys to do "Animals," one of my favorite album's. I'm thankful you guys use lyrics a lot because it's a must for Animals.
The meddle album is always under appreciated and overlooked because of the ones that came after but that album in my opinion is just as good.
Totally agree, Meddle is burned into my psychedelic experiences I still remember from back in the day.
It’s one of my top 2 favorite Floyd records, the stuff that made the radio is great stuff, but not what I go to when listening to them at home.
Awesome album!
Meddle is a great album. Definitely underrated.
Even more underrated is "Obscured by Clouds", made in between Meddle and Dark Side.
Worth checking out.
Rick Wright..major part of The Floyd sound.until he passed. Peace and Love
Sometime when you have about 20 minutes, try to check out the original studio version of Echoes from the Meddle album; not to react to it, but to just enjoy it. There is no part 1 or 2, just an uninterrupted musical adventure from start to finish.
… and this is the best video interpretation of that side of the LP I've ever found:
*_Pink Floyd - Echoes - music video_*
czcams.com/video/fwdKFSEe2uY/video.html
"not to react to it, but to just enjoy it."
To enjoy is to react..
To react to new information is instinctual, it's survival. Squirrels do it, birds do it, humans do it. New info = potential threat = reaction. When you scare someone, that's what happens, the brain goes into survival and screams DANGER.
If you see someone walking towards you, you react to it in some way, either by continuing to walking, stopping, moving out of the way, walking past them and so on.
When people say they're "reactors" I think nuclear reactors, because you can't "be" a reacting person, everyone is a reacting person from birth. We react to cold, we react to lack of love(kids can actually die from not being touched and "loved" at an early stage), we react to being poor, being rich, waking up, going to sleep, food, water, everything.
You know good music when still popular 50 year and going like i said in other pink Floyd comments ive been listening to their music 40 years on
What a delight it is to see you guys reacting to this amazing music. I was a Floyd fan in 1967 when their first album came out. I can actually tell you exactly where I was when I bought each album in the 60s. When they announced that they had filmed a movie of them performing in the Roman amphitheatre in Pompeii I was stoked. They released it into the movie theatres in early 1972 and I remember taking the bus to go and see it. Can you imagine what this was like to experience this in a small movie theatre back in 1972? The movie opened with Echoes Part 1 and closed with part 2. In between they included more songs and also footage of them recording Dark Side of the Moon in the studio. I was so pumped that I couldn't wait for them to come to town, which they did a few weeks later. I sat about fifteen rows back on the floor and watched them perform all of Dark Side of the Moon. It wasn't released until about a year later, so none of us had a clue what we were hearing for an hour. The sound was quadraphonic and was all around the entire hall. The ended with Echoes and the whole audience was mesmerized. Changed my life. I went to that Roman Amphitheatre about 45 years later and stood on the magical spot. Watch them do Echoes for the very last time here. czcams.com/video/zrProK5R7ms/video.html Thanks guys.
R.I.P. Rick Wright, keys ❤️🔥
Listen to "Fearless"
I think you said it best: "Pink Floyd figured it out." Yep. I had that realization when I first saw the Echoes film and really listened to Dark Side of the Moon in my early 20s. That was a hell of a realization because it taught me that these guys were operating on an entirely different level from their peers. That's why Dark Side is considered the perfect album. It sort of has it all: the songs, the concept, the album art, the impeccable production and sound, the music that is at once deep but pop, yet it's all held together with great pocket grooves, rhythms, and songs. Underlying this band are 4 guys who are incredibly smart. Hell, they met at an architectural school. The original guitarist before Syd and Dave dropped out to become an architect. I think what they also really figured out by this time period - I think they recorded this in 1971 - was they had fully figured out and mastered how to fully maximize the use of technology, the studio as another instrument, and their ability to blend the technical production with their artistic concepts. That was when they went from a really good band to one of the greatest bands of all time.
I know they came close to perfection with Dark Side but this stuff is what drew me to them in the first place (with a little pushing from one of my older brothers) The rest is history for me.
U guys gotta listen to the whole song in one sitting, UNMATCHED 🎶
Thank you for this part two, your comments are always on point!👍
One of these days if you want to see drumming!!!.pompeii video aswell!!.enjoy!!!🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
You guys being artists in you're own right it what makes you'all's reactions much more relevant and enjoyable to watch. Can see the awe in your eyes when the music kicks in - don't need a big exaggerated hollar about it.
I remember the first time I took Acid in the summer of 1990, I'd heard Pink Floyd hundreds of times before this experience. But hearing Echoes on acid, David Gilmour's laughing steel guitar... I won't go into the hallucinations but it was like hearing Floyd for the first time. 🤩👍
Another great reaction another banger. There was no other band like Pink Floyd. More Floyd plz.
The "One of these Days" from the Live at Pompeii gig is great too. It's a go-to for me as a pick up. It's odd because it only shows Nick Mason the drummer; that wasn't by design. Somehow the other footage of the band was lost so the video is done centred on him and... it's great. 🤩
ANy idea why reactors don't react to it? It's the banger of the album and the video is very interesting....
czcams.com/video/K6-bXwpsVZg/video.html
Epic Movie! In my collection for sure.
Fun fact: those "seagull voices" was made by reverse-plugging a wah effect to Dave's guitar :)
The starts like aliens coming in a alien ship and yelling❤️🔥❤️🔥 love it ...pinkfloyd is from another dimension
I've been a Pink Floyd since 1970 and Meddle was my first album =) These guys are the best and second to none ! If you want to hear the best all girl hard rock band in the world check out Band-Maid "Domination" Official Live ! It's a jaw dropping performance ! Thanks guys really enjoy your channel =)
Agreed on both counts. My sister had the Meddle album. I used to sneak in and listen. It's always been Pink Floyd first. And now,... Meet Band Maid. "Domination" Official Live ! is a great start. Best rabbit hole on CZcams.
Just think what these guys would have done with the tools we have today like protools and all the digital equipment available. Theses guys did all this with miles of 1/2 real to real tape and 8 tracks. There are documentary’s on the making of Dark Side of the Moon that are well worth watching if you’re interested in learning more about them.
One of my fave parts of music ever is when the beat drops and the slow mo sounding cinematic electric guitar comes in
It doesn't matter what questions you ask because it will be right!!!.every pink Floyd recording is for the individual to interpret in his/hers reactions are their own interpretation!!!.genius on a different level!!!.
1974, horseback riding along trails next to a river with Echoes playing on my red Panasonic tape player. Some memories never fade away. Great reaction guys ✌️😎
Where else do you ride on a horse, in the UK we know where the saddle is lol.
@barrie hull Good job knowing where a saddle is 🤔
Those 4 guys had God like talent, everyone back in the day thought either Floyd or Zeppelin were the best, we played Echoes as the last song on Saturday evenings for much of the 70s & 80s. Also on the Meddle album is One of These Days, another classic audio experience from them. Animals is right up there with what you have heard so far from them. Enjoy the journey! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Zeppelin is certainly way up there on the list, hard driving blues rock, but Floyd went far deeper and had much more range in their music.
❤🙏Thank You for Another Amazing Reaction!!
I like the shirts off too. How awesome would it have been being one of the production guys there getting a private concert so to speak.
Bootsy and Phunkadelic and Pink Floyd are the legendary Nasty Funky Groove.
Oh yeah! They used to play this movie at the theatre as a midnight feature. We saw it a bunch of times as teenagers.
Thankyou again guys 😍 hope you do a reaction to the wall when you have time, a really great album, im sure you will enjoy it 🙏 ✌️ 🇬🇧
I'm glad you said you wanted to watch the whole thing. You should. It's amazing and you'll see a side to them you won't have heard yet as this was stuff that was recorded before the albums you've already listened to. Tracks like One of These Days, Saucer Full of Secrets and Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun. Watch it at night with the lights off!
More great stuff! Congrats for passing 10K. You deserve 300K, at minimum.
Listening to Pink Floyd is like making love they take you on a journey on a trip and get deep into your soul
That volcano they are walking down, is Mt Vesuvius, which erupted in the 79 AD and buried Pompeii under 20 feet of ash. The amphitheater they are playing in is part of the remains of Pompeii. The director of the movie did a great job showing images of what is left of Pompeii while David is playing his oh so haunting guitar licks, one can't help but think it is some form communication with the spirits that died so horribly there, so long ago, like distant echoes....And this movie used to play for years at a repertory theatre, so $2 Cdn admission. Every Friday, always packed. I bought the movie on dvd, in fact, it was the first dvd movie I bought for my then brand new dvd player.
Oh, by the way, the movie was not really a documentary. At that time a lot of groups were releasing movies of live shows, with some behind the scenes footage added in as well. So, being Pink Floyd, they released a 'live' show without an audience!! And if you ever want to actually watch how they made some of those amazing sounds, watch the 'Saucerful of Secrets' from this same movie, live at Pompeii. (Filmed 1971, released 1972, then had added footage later.)
Actually, the Meddle album (from which the song Echoes is from), came out in 1971. The album Obscured by Clouds came out in 1972. And then all their best known albums, starting with Dark Side Of The Moon in 1973. So, busy 3 years considering they not only put out 3 albums, but managed to film a movie in between there somewhere as well.
Thanks for your reaction, Echoes, like most of the Pink Floyd song could only be produced with an Indepth knowledge of music. It is also interesting how the band members play as a group. None tries to outshine the other. They all get a chance to show off thier talent. Some say it is a conversation between the drums and guitar. I see it as a concert in for the spirits of the 20,000 people that died when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 74 AD. I would say this is one of the most well produced music videos I've ever watched. Listening to it, you wouldn't think it was done by drugged out people in the mid to late 20s.
I freakin love your channel. I can trust that when I click on one of your reactions there is going to be great music being discovered by absolute music lovers. Thank you!!!
Musicians and bands all say, "Pink Floyd is here, and everyone else is over here."
"I'm gonna have to take my shirt off." That gave me a nice cackle.
First saw this on a black and white tv with a tinney little speaker. Already had the album, but was still enthralled. Guess I was 14-15 years old. Continuing to love your comments, opinions and reactions.
Such a cool setting for such an epic band! Have the DVD. Awesome.
You guys crack me up, "Floyd-ed out", "Pink Floyd is my favorite hip hop band', lol
Keep them coming, explore the Meddle album
More Pink Floyd please, brilliant seeing you both blown away with every video/song. Especially live
This album,Meddle, is very good and very unique. You will love it
Animals! 🐖🐕🐑 My favorite album by them 🔥🎶🔥
You guys need to react to Pink Floyd - Animals...my favorite album
These boys were all about the journey!
My favorite Pink Floyd piece❤
I share your opinion ,this Is One of the most emotional piece of music ever conceived of human being,an incredibile gen and treasure.from Treviso Italy Cattarin Luciano
The effect is a piano played through a Leslie. No tricks no computers. Just raw talent. Sadly missed these days.
You should watch the entire movie. PF Live at Pompeii. It is essentially live performances of all the songs on the album Meddle with scenes from the studio during the composition of their next album, Dark Side of the Moon. You get a view into their process and sound design. A must view for any PF fan.
Richard and David's outro on this is just heavenly......as was their harmonising vocals. No computer edits autotunes and other tricks...........just four great musicians playing live to an empty theatre. PF were one of the first to do very long productions. Mastodon followed them with Hearts Alive. Another amazing production - a must listen.
Richard Wright playing Piano at the end with Reverb & Echo effects !! 👍 🎼🎹🎶✌
Drummer who play for the music instead of for the attention usually are AMAZING and almost always underrated.
My top 5 P F songs are Time, Echoes, Comfortably Numb, Dogs and Shine On You Crazy Diamond. All are off a different album and all are great! You will love Animals!
Animals is Funk-EEEE... amazing lyrics and music
The basslines are beautiful
Piano played through a Leslie speaker is awesome
Roger wasn't late, he was actually playing the second piano in the first part of the video, Great reaction!
The Beastie Boys video for "Gratitude" is a visual nod to "Echoes", complete with "Pink Floyd - London" amplifiers!
Back in the 1970's Pink Floyd's Pompeii would be shown at midnight movies, the place would be full with hippies we would be smoking and drinking having a blast I miss those days btw I seen Pink Floyd at Tarrant County Convention Center in Fort Worth Texas the Animals tour 1977 as well as Led Zeppelin the same year 2 of the best live concerts I ever was apart of
The sound is the grand piano mic’d through a rotating Leslie speaker.
I love how you 2 acknowledge and praise the drum beats of the gifted and talented Nick Mason.❤ PLEASE CHECK OUT THE POMPEII PERFORMANCE OF ONE OF THESE DAYS.WATCH CLOSELY AND YOU'LL SEE NOTHING KEEPS HIM FROM MISSING A BEAT😉
David Gilmour is the master of harmonising as well as that guitar! love your work guys! it is amazing how many they have influenced and how many of these groups were equally influenced by their heroes and amazing musicians. PF it's a life cycle of harmony for so many of us humans.
This is from their album ‘Meddle’. I love that album. The first song on side one is ‘One of These Days’. That is an awesome song you should check out.🧡
You guys have to listen to Shine on you crazy diamond.
Love that you both enjoy Floyd. This is side 2 of the Album Meddle, side 1 is just as good but is a complete mix of music. This is what I consider them coming together and getting ready to do The Dark Side of the Moon album. They experimented a lot with many odd sounds over 2 albums Umma Gumma and this one Meddle. I think you may want to take a listen to some Alan Parsons Project. Alan was the engineer on DSOTM and has said his album Tales of Mystery and Imagination was a follow up to Floyd's DSOTM album. Another one you may want to take a listen too is David Gilmour's self titled solo album that came out (1978) a year before The Wall. You might also be interested in the fact that "Comfortably Numb" was a piece of music that was a left over from Gilmour's solo album, he had the music down but hadn't written anything for it yet. When they needed a filler song for The Wall David brought the music in and Waters came up with the lyrics for it. Roger's used a personal experience of being ill before a show and getting a shot before going on stage to do a show.
The entire “concert”/“movie” is well worth a watch. There’s even a dog solo.
Yeah straight thru the roof :)
U boys are kool...i like how you do whole sides...............please do............... Bob Marley ' Survival' entire album' it aint that long like a rock record
EPiC!!
You lads r right into Floyd now, no going back,
FYI, the distinctive Nick Mason sound is partially due to his Paiste 2002 22" ride.
I managed to find a 1974 one in mint condition for our Floyd tribute band, and it makes such a difference.
Can't wait for Animals! Good review guys.
16 years old (maybe 1976) me and a buddy heard this movie was playing in Oakbrook, Il. so we gathered our couple dollars and went to the bus stop. The buses didn't take paper money back then so the bus driver waited for us to go get change at the laundromat across the street. we climbed back on the bus. About halfway there we each did a hit of purple microdot. We got there and didn't see it listed on the board and the lady in the ticket booth told us it was playing at OAK PARK. which is 5 miles North of where we were originally. We ran back to the bus and it was the same driver, once again we didn't have change but, recognizing us he told us to get on, half way back the microdot kicked in and we bust out laughing for no reason ( well, the acid was the reason) but that bus driver had to be thinking "Maybe I should drop these two off at the looney bin". We finally got to Oak Park and they were playing the 3 stooges before the 2nd Floyd showing, so you know we had a good time.
No, no way and I would never insult these great musicians. They are NOT hip pop, not even close. ;) Pure Rock'n'Roll. :)
Great reaction! For me the Gdańsk performance of Echoes is the best one!
PF always dips it in butter : )
You guys should watch "Set The Controls For The Heart of The Sun " from the film or just check out the whole movie. There is footage of them recording songs on Dark Side of the Moon and band interviews interspersed with the Pompeii performance. Pink Floyd has three vocalists: bassist Roger Waters, keyboardist Richard Wright and guitarist David Gilmour.
They just know how to vibrate the soul ..
How Richard Wright builds to that crescendo 🤯
A million bright ambassadors of morning!!!
you have to see it live in "Remember That Night" by David Gilmour with Richard Wright at the Royal Albert Hall in 2009
Il looks as they are in studio, but they still are Live at Pompeii, art the amAmphitheater !
Hope you two had a great weekend but everytime Monday comes around l'm so excited to see what y'all have reacted to and l must say, you never disappoint ✌️🥰
Next you might try "Set Your Controls for the Heart of the Sun" or "Careful with That Axe Eugene" which are also BOTH from this same "movye-documentary" at Pompeii
Those are the songs that got me into Floyd, Ummagumma freaked me out!
This is the song that defined the Pink Floyd sound we hear later in their discography. It’s just splendid how Richard Wright is such a genius with setting that perfect ambient atmosphere.
I still have this album that I got in the 1970
The movie is very good to get to know the band a little also.... Some visits to Abby Road and chats,
Love your reactions, guys! Best out there. If you want to see the drummer truly go crazy, watch One Of These Days from this same concert. You'll love it. At one point, he loses a stick and picks up another without missing a beat.
One of these days by Floyd
Old timer here.
This was a movie that we’d go watch while tripping.
Thank you for appreciating it.
🤘
Great reaction guys ❤
Love the reactions,yeah you'll like animals.ummagumma and the one with the cow on,haha just got mind block lol
