Light my fire
I was quoting him because he was cobain's mentor..
Man,
I've been missing good threads like this all this while !!!
A die hard Floyd man here... :)
Actually Pink Floyd got their name from Pink Anderson and Floyd Council who were blues artists....... In fact, Syd Barrett called the band The T-Set, the Abdabs and The Screaming Abdabs before settling on PF.
Personally my pick of the lot is Roger Waters and i don't think PF were the same after they split. I travelled for 3 nights with very little sleep in the peak summer season to watch Roger Waters's "In The Flesh" concert in Bangalore. I was living in Delhi back then.
Been trying to get hold of "In the Flesh" DVD but its always out of stock whenever i ask for it in Music World or Planet M.
And invariably, fans of Pink Floyd also like Led Zeppelin, Jimmi Hendrix, The Doors and Dire Straits - the quintessential classic rock cream.
Hope this thread is "Coming back to life"
andavar this happened 2 years before right. i was in chennai at that time. there was a big commotion among college goers when word spread around that pink floyd is going to tour india. that was the time when i actually started listening to quality western music. before that western music simply meant michael jackson.and let it be known that pink floyd has the highest fan following in the institute i am currently in.there is a big gang of rock music lovers over here.i have almost the complete pink floyd collection. but as i have already said before to me nir>dp>rs>pf.
ah just remembered.pink floyd toured india 3 years before. for the past one year i am living in a different world altogether.that's the reason why i'm unable to place things in the right chronological order.
JC,
That was actually Roger Waters' "In the flesh" tour, and technically not Pink Floyd because that name rests with David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Nick Mason, after they split after The Wall and won a suit filed by Roger Waters. Roger did an album "Final Cut" (a very personal and gratifying album) in which he hired David, Richard and Nick to play for the album.
BTW, did you say you were studying in college?
Personally i liked Nirvana but i fele their spectrum is not as broad as PF's. Nirvana makes for some great listening to give you company if ur depressed, especially their unplugged album :)
may i jump while u all are on discussive job i am also addict of music of P F will u bear me also sirs.
My favorites of Pink Floyd are - Time, Money, "A Momentary Lapse of Reason", "Dark Side of the Moon", and others.
And after Sting went solo, I like his singing "Money For Nothing" for Dire Straits from their Grammy winning album "Brothers In Arms".
RIP Syd :cry:
