I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd (after Roger Waters joined the band). Some people don't like Wish You Were Here, but I liked the album even if there will never be anything as spectacular as Dark Side of the Moon.
LL I still remember when and where I was when I first heard this--at a Ted Nugent show in downtown Madison. The roadies had it blaring through the PA system while they were setting up. Usually I heard things first on FM radio but that was an exception.
Animals was a pretty lame follow up to this. The Wall was a good recovery.
Do you know the story regarding this song and Syd Barrett?
I keep replaying the youtube version of Van Morrison singing "Comfortably Numb" in some construction ditch in Germany or something.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty cool.
