Pink Floyd
Just popped on Animals.
Have the iPod hooked up to external speakers on my desk. Tracks are mixed perfectly. 1st track sounds like it's originating from a point in space about 4 feet directly in front of me even though the speakers are only 2 feet away at 11 and 1 o'clock. Floyd is awesome.

I'm going to see "The Australian Pink Floyd" next week, I'm such a huge fan that I'll go see a tribute band.

Floyd, the name itself stands alone. The funny thing is my 17year old has gotten into it and has now stolen all my cd's. She was warned not to touch my lp's. I have a quad copy of dark side.................unopened.

I got the new David Gilmour DVD last week. It was recorded live at The Royal Alber Hall last summer. I have never seen a better DVD. Of course I had just finished up my new music/video viewing room. 4 satelites, 9 speaker cabs, 2500 watts of 7.1 surround. He played many of the classic Floyd #'s and his newest Cd. The mix is superb, the light show incredible, and Royal Albert Hall beautiful. Other than that.

Listened to Floyd for years and do not plan on stopping anytime soon. No one even close to replace them...

Man, I was obsessed with Floyd in high school/college.
Did anyone ever solve the puzzle in Division Bell?

Don't be too suprised that kids, particularly teens like it. My little one likes it already and he's only 7. He always likes it on in the car.

Try alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.1970s, alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.1980s, alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.bootlegs and finally alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.blues for lots and lots of Pink Floyd albums, live concerts and solo recordings by David Gilmour. The tapes from the early live concerts are really cool!

I'll always remember listening to The Wall for hours on an 8-track through a big set of headphones.
Times have changed.  Best, Kurt |

Haven't bought anything by them since the Final Cut... did recently watch a movie that had Roger Waters as the sound track, and it sounded *lots* like Floyd... but I've not bought/listened to any of his stuff....
So... which should I go with? Post -Cut Floyd or Waters? Any recommendations?

Man, I was into Pink Floyd in the 1980's. On one or two or 14 occasions, I actually attended "Pink Floyd: The Wall" stoned.
Hmm. Funny thing: I found that the obscure conclusions that I came to when non-stoned were no different from the ones that I obtained while watching Pink Floyd stoned off my ass. The Floyd made no difference at all- I was just stoned. And hammers marching in line just looked kind of silly, as they do right now, tonight. I guess I just don't understand hippies- N |
