Yea it's does. Early Floyd was really bass and drumming caring the song with Rick adding his haunting keyboard playing to give it atmosphere. Especially on a lot of there bootlegs from 68-70.
They used overlays and overdubs of track parts and effects sometimes to but most of it is performed by the band. Their live performances of one song could carry on for half an hour sometimes. There had three hour sets most the time and where great improv artists. Which is much harder then playing the same part over and over the same way every time like some bands do. To Improv the band has to connect on a higher level and read each other while setting each other up for epic parts, all done on the spot, that’s not easy.

Nick Mason is one of the most under-appreciated artists. He was the only member of Pink Floyd to remain with them for the whole time. And frankly, watching the Live at Pompeii performance, he proves his worth in the rock infamy. Not dissing any other Floyd members, but he's certainly credible.
hweenmask Ok. Fair enough to say in a band where many members came and went but the main "lead artists" stayed. Wright and Mason weren't a simple rhythm section. They each brought their own talent. Were they the greatest ever recorded? No, but they fit so well into the band it wouldn't sound the same without them. Syd created Pink Floyd, Roger helped perfect it, but David brought the sound and style while Roger helped hone the message and lyrics. Wright and Mason could've easily been the footnotes in these "creative differences", but usually held up when the style changed and helped keep a central ground. Roger and David were hardly born from the same pod, and it shows if you're familiar with Pink Floyd history.
hweenmask actually, I don't think Wright was replacable, neither Mason. For different reasons, Wright had a great synergy with Gilmour, which another player wouldn't (and he brings the atmosphere to most of musics) And Mason had a nice groove for Floyd songs Thats why the pink floyd is so great together, and not that great separated
The drum solo followed by RW's atmospheric playing make a strong case for Mason and Wright. This is the band at it's peak, when they play as a band. Unfortunately, I tend to side with Waters because the others were lazy and could not be bothered to practice and come up with material later on after they got rich. At least we'll always have this peak PF period between Ummagumma and Meddle when they were still a team.

@@napooliveros356 Both Roger Waters & Nick Mason on this song. It's the first song Waters wrote that he said he was happy with. The lyrics are translated from an ancient book of Chinese poetry Waters had. The title is the only lyric Roger Waters wrote, the rest are different poets from the ancient Chinese poetry book. I'm sure those poets were the stars of their era. Their works live on in this song, as long as Pink Floyd fans/freaks listen to this song. Kinda cool perspective I just grasped right now although I've known about the way it was written for awhile now. And you're right about Mason owns One Of These Days
What’s wonderful about this is that there isn’t a synthesizer anywhere in this performance; just standard electric and acoustic instruments with some nice delay effects on Rick’s Farfisa organ. What a beautiful performance so long ago.
MichaelKingsfordGray How so? That is a sign that the band is cohesive. Plus it creates a wide spectrum of unique sounds, which is what made Pink Floyd so special.
that was because they had strong jazz influence, but then in the later 70s, a number of bands sound started changing to the new 'heavy metal', which broke down the interplay that early rock had.
Yes...but I honestly think Nick Mason is the feature of this particular song. They all have significant part of this masterpiece of a band. It's so hard to say who is the centerpiece when the band as a whole is the round table. You can only say that with the greatest of bands. I mean Roger waters vocals I think are awesome as well in this song. True musicians all around.
part of the brilliance of this song certainly revolves around Nick's drumming. It's incredibly steady with constant rhythmic value, as the other instruments devolve into chaos. The perfection of trance and emotion, the drums keeping the mind centered. The recurring theme continually builds and resets the mood. It is one of Pink Floyd's masterpieces.
he didn't just hit the keys, he made the sounds perfectly match the mood and created the perfect background atmosphere. Every note had subtle variations. Whether its with Syd or with David, Rick's keyboards "made the song" and set them apart from other bands. There is no better 'background' keyboard player in all of rock and roll. RIP Rick
If you like this you'll love Pink Floyd / Cymbaline / in a church .... which is on TH-cam somewhere. ('Though strictly speaking its not a Church they're in).
This is the type of music no mainstream musical group could or would play. Pink Floyd's music was so complex that this is what made their music do unique.
My friend once said his top 3 albums were Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall. And I said "I thought we were listing our top 5 albums from each band" and he said "well those are the only ones I care about" and I'm just like "You have no idea what you're missing out on"

@@danebitirekao1922 I checked them out. Very cool. Have you ever heard Budgie before? Check out Parents. They do something with an electric guitar toward the end that makes it sound just like seagulls to my ear. Unique, I thought.
thanks. unfortunately in the 1980s, it was hard to find guys like that--I tried. a few were genuine, but mostly I found people wanting to tell me how to play because of the lack of understanding of Floyd or Deep Purple for that matter.
At the beginning of the seventies, Pink Floyd music hit me like the apple hitting Newton's head.Everything I thought I'd known about music vanished away and I remained captive into this music ever since.
I agree with you Vangelis but I think it's going to be like Beethoven and Bach in 200 years from now people will be listening to Pink Floyd like we listen to Beethoven and Bach now
Whereas a person studying anthropolgy or social psychology would have no difficulty summarsing why the general consensus is that Amna Javed's a pretentious tosser with little genuine grasp of psychology or philiosophy.
"Witness the man who raves at the wall, making the shape of his questions to Heaven"----The man is an old person praying at the wailing wall in Jerusalem. His hunched back and bowing head as he prays makes the shape of a question mark.
I am not religious, that is the only LOGICAL explanation to these lyrics. The entire song, if you understand it and analyze it carefully is a critique on religion, fool. It touches on the idea of dualism, or light and darkness and the necessitaty for both of them to exist equally because if there is too much light we might also be destroyed: hence the name of the song, Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun.
Marsha Rupe a saucerful of secrets is my favorite portion of the film. Can't beat Roger slamming that gong and David playing shoeless on the ground laptop style guitar!
THis is the only song to have all members playing even syd, he recorded some guitar riffs you are hearing, and when he left they left him in this song and put david in with him...So its the only pink floyd song with Syd, David, Rodger, Nick, Richard.
@@andbacil The Floyd bounced everything off Syd, he was the genius, the man at the controls, the springboard for everything which followed; would've loved to have heard Syd's completed version of this song.
Willdaberry Blue Syd Barrett is not on this track! He neither was on the studio version featured on "A Saucerful Of Secrets". For some reason, Roger decided to record the song, without Barrett, over three sessions between August,1967~January,1968. Roger did add seagulls! David Gilmour added a little Guitar towards the end of the song in January,1968.
Just saw Roger Waters show in SF two days ago- unbelievable experience! A multimedia extravaganza and at 79 years old, he hasn't lost a step! Nick Mason in Oakland Oct 2022 doing Saucerful of Secrets. Cannot wait! RIP SYD snd Rick.
This is the first pink floyd song I heard when I was 14, and I fell in love with it. It's one of those songs that evoke such a spiritual, cosmic, mystic aura and feeling. It does transport you to a different plane musically. Also great track to listen to while tripping balls.
My God, I haven't given Floyd a good listen to since high school. This just reminded me why I fell in love with their music in the first place. Atmospheric; grande; introspective; absolutely incredible. I think I'm gonna go pack a bowl.
I don't know what possessed you to stop. I remember when Meddle came out, they were changing directions. This particular recording is something I listen to so much I probably pay for the advertising all by myself lol 😆😂😂😂
This is real psy music, not any Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead and so on...Wish you were here Syd and Rick. Thank you for all your songs Pink Floyd.
Jefferson aiplane and grateful dead songs are also psychedelic , but no could do it better than pink floyd , they are the best of what psychedelic music can be , along with the doors song ' the end "
This stuff is more prog rock than it is psych rock but I see where you're coming from. Many would say Pink Floyd is the pinnacle of psychedelic rock music.
The atmosphere of Richard’s section 5:16 is so damn amazing. Roger compliments how longer notes with the beautiful higher notes of his bass and the background of stoned bodies outlining Wright’s silhouette. It just makes the whole section so beautiful to listen to but so creepy to watch. I love everything about this version of the song, I can’t listen to the studio recording anymore because this version is so good. Nick Masons drumming is so good (as a drummer I’m so happy to hear this man popping off), Richard Wright’s ambient section is bone chilling, Roger Water’s vocals give me goosebumps. God damn I’ve never listened to older Pink Floyd as much but wow they went crazy on this track.
Totally agree with you..BTW the Wall was my least liked Floyd album. .huge commercial success but I found it rather discothequeish considering the time when it was released...
Reason being is Drumming is constant movement..sound and motion ,,visually this is where the action is..the other musicians are static ,,and rightly so..jumping around & exaggerating their movement would appear foolish..so in this video format that is where the eye is pulled to...Being a Drummer and producer myself this is spot on
I watched the Machine and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra perform a Pink Floyd concert, I'm a Floyd fan all over again, this song was awesome live. What a masterful band, different than any other!!!!
the 'old' pink floyd? Do you mean before DSOTM and/or THE WALL? The 'old' pink floyd to me is before David Gilmour replaced Syd Barrett. I adore both musicians, and I love the whole gamut of PF's music from it's inception to present day, it is all magical imo. There is not one album I dislike! I love the tracks 'green is the colour' and 'cymballine' from the More soundtrack album for David's singing, and Lucifer Sam, Astonomie Donomie and Interstellar Overdrive from Syd for his riffs and inventiveness on the guitar, plus his melody composition! I don't care too much about the rift between Roger and the band in later years like some people do, as I don't think it is our business as fans to be honest... I think all the band members contributed something very special and don't like to compare Roger's solo efforts to David's, or Roger's PF material with the band to PF material after he'd left either. No one is a perfect human being, but their music together is truly amazing when they played together, despite the band politics. RIP Rick Wright and Syd Barrett.
This one makes my mind travel more than any song of the Floyd.. It gets me in a kind of trance but a smooth one. Underrated song sadly who deserves way more credits and views..
Questa versione magica l'ho ascoltata in concerto dei Pink Floyd nel 1971 ad Rotterdam olanda,serata magica avevo 22 anni da allora fanno parte della mia vita .Roger col cerchio infuocato e stato magico genio insieme a tutto il gruppo,quelli erano e sono stati i veri floyd.ora ho 75 anni e tutti i giorni mi immergo nella loro musica di un altro pianeta,con loro volo nell'universo.
I only saw them once in 91. it was ok, but I think their hay day was in the early 70s, which is sad to say because it started out as Syd Barret's vision in the 60s.
Saw them on the Animals Tour in '77. Still emotional thinking about it. County Stadium, Milwaukee. Where the hell did all the years go?! Still as good as it was the first time I heard them.
always ..the Drummer holds the pace..directs the dynamic shift..enhance the whole vibe.shift attention..I AM A PROFESSIONAL DRUMMER,,Nick is so under rated it is sickening
This dude naming other drummers shit actually Nick mason was ahead of its time. A double bass drum at that time of year, let's just put it this way he was the godfather of the double bass drum. Nick Mason is one badass drummer
Pour moi c'est leur meilleure période , repoussant les limites des conventions , un son glacial comme les immensités spatiales qui nous entourent...du très grand art !
Nick,a sa façon de jouer,pas besoins de taper fort,il est très technique, très habile,aux percussion', mais comme tu dis très sous estimé, mais 'nick est le seul membre du groupe qui a participé a tous les albums.... que ce soit, avec,syd, Roger,et David,il aurait été médiocre,il ne serait pas rester...et sa montre bien que Nick était indispensable avec Floyd,ce groupe était très perfectionniste,et très disciplinés,a ce que j'ai lus malheureusement syd en a fait les frais...
A oui j'ai zappé l'histoire du joint,hé oui il fallait ce qu'il fallait,je l'ai lus récemment,,il a fait son travail 😉 tout simplement avec euphorie 👍👍👍

The farfisa organ played by Richard wright creates a mystical ambience with the energetic drums of nick mason and scintillating vocal of Roger with a brilliant touch of Syd and gilmour that's make a pink floyd immortal

My answer to that question can be seen on the Umma Gumma album cover.
The fact that rhythm is the first essential of music made rock what it is.
Almost like a psychedelic orchestra. It's hard to believe just 4 guys manage to create this kind of a lush sonic trance.
Agree. LUSH
Five guys, actually. In fact, this is the only Pink Floyd track to feature all five members.

The lyrics are translated from an ancient book of Chinese poetry Waters had. The title is the only lyric Roger Waters wrote, the rest are different poets from the ancient Chinese poetry book. I'm sure those poets were the stars of their era. Their works live on in this song, as long as Pink Floyd fans/freaks listen to this song. Kinda cool perspective I just grasped right now although I've known about the way it was written for awhile now. And you're right about Mason owns One Of These Days
roger waters owns "Careful With That Axe, Eugene"
@@ognjcc Love those too incl. Careful with that axe...👿🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gilmour couldn’t come up with Echoes if his life depended on it. The lyrics were pure Waters.
Absolute masterpiece. This is when Pink Floyd were at their best.
Just amazing.
The keyboard in this version is so sublime Rick wright is my hero
I saw them in concert in Wichita, of all places, in 1971.
I have been a big fan ever since just because of this kind of artistry.
That must have been amazing. I saw them in 1977 during the animals tour. Truly the best concert I ever went to.
What’s wonderful about this is that there isn’t a synthesizer anywhere in this performance; just standard electric and acoustic instruments with some nice delay effects on Rick’s Farfisa organ. What a beautiful performance so long ago.
Dang what u got against synthesizers?
You say that like most of Pink Floyd’s music isn’t either based around or constructed with synthesizers
Emerson would have a word with you
@@grande1590 he just meant it’s amazing that they didn’t need to use synthesizers on a song like this.
Rick was awesome!
This band has so many versatile sounds holy shit
yes they did, and they also had some interesting and unusual forms then.
Imaginative
Had ;before 1973.I hated them since I first heard "money "
Very experimental... Especially in the albums pre Dark Side....
@@vanman757 absolutely
One thing I always notice from Pink Floyd is that each member has its moment of glory in most songs. I have so much admiration for this band.
johnemil deleon i love that about them
MichaelKingsfordGray How so? That is a sign that the band is cohesive. Plus it creates a wide spectrum of unique sounds, which is what made Pink Floyd so special.
What's David's or Roger's moment of glory on this one? Frankly, Floyd rarely did what you say.
that was because they had strong jazz influence, but then in the later 70s, a number of bands sound started changing to the new 'heavy metal', which broke down the interplay that early rock had.
Ues
Richard is the soul of Pink Floyd
Yes...but I honestly think Nick Mason is the feature of this particular song. They all have significant part of this masterpiece of a band. It's so hard to say who is the centerpiece when the band as a whole is the round table. You can only say that with the greatest of bands. I mean Roger waters vocals I think are awesome as well in this song. True musicians all around.
Love looking at those 2000 year old faces, it’s like they are listening to the Floyd with us.
part of the brilliance of this song certainly revolves around Nick's drumming. It's incredibly steady with constant rhythmic value, as the other instruments devolve into chaos. The perfection of trance and emotion, the drums keeping the mind centered. The recurring theme continually builds and resets the mood. It is one of Pink Floyd's masterpieces.
I enjoy reading comments that are open to being controlled by pink floyds music
The way he builds up the tension is just fantastic
I like the way the camera orbits Nick as Earth would orbits the Sun
I can hear the Arabic/Middle Eastern influences loud and clear, a
great great one
floyd use a great influence of the eastern parts listen to echoes album
U r a man of taste dude✌
Investigate phrygian mode
One of the great things I like about Pink Floyd
th-cam.com/video/fEmZxfF4a2I/w-d-xo.html
This is my favorite version of this song. Everyone is in top playing form and perfectly synchronized.
This song is ethereal and hypnotic, I really appreciate this performance
Yeah first time I heard it I was trippin on some mushrooms man and it put me in a trance it felt like
rick wright RIP. one of the most innovative, sonically inspiring keyboard players there ever has been
he didn't just hit the keys, he made the sounds perfectly match the mood and created the perfect background atmosphere. Every note had subtle variations. Whether its with Syd or with David, Rick's keyboards "made the song" and set them apart from other bands. There is no better 'background' keyboard player in all of rock and roll. RIP Rick
He is now in the same room with Jon Lord from Deep Purple and both are talking about playing their keyboards...................
@@dpc983 Such a wholesome thought.
Thank you he gets nowhere near the respect he should in my mind his keyboards are the key to the Pink Floyd sound
One of the greatest performances in human history :)
If you like this you'll love Pink Floyd / Cymbaline / in a church .... which is on TH-cam somewhere.
('Though strictly speaking its not a Church they're in).
Clownsec 👏👏👏👏🖒🖒🖒
The best
Yessssss
Yes
This is the type of music no mainstream musical group could or would play. Pink Floyd's music was so complex that this is what made their music do unique.
I loved Pink Floyd since 1969. Still do!
IM AGREE WHIT YOU
5:35 me too
Rick Wright's work here is very impressive
+Hank Hardigan Same on the lp
Someone said it!
Es impresionante !
indeed
I love it when Rick and David play together. like in the great parts of Echoes. He will be missed
Not many people are familiar with the first few Floyd albums, they're missing out
Exactly
My friend once said his top 3 albums were Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall.
And I said "I thought we were listing our top 5 albums from each band" and he said "well those are the only ones I care about" and I'm just like "You have no idea what you're missing out on"
If you are over 60, you sure remember....
TBH, I prefer pre Dark Side of the Moon Floyd.
@AA Michaels then you don't know much about music
That's my favorite version of 'Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun'. One of the best and most hypnotizing tunes from their early years.
When theres no hope left, you set the controls for the heart of the sun.
My favourite pink floyd's song! I love it. I love Pink Floyd.
Check out "Hurdy Gurdy man" performed by Donovan, mind blowing.
Alexandra Ionesi Mine too! This song is on a league of it's own
Nick Mason's too apparently.
We are in agreement then. Next comes "A Saucerful of Secrets," etc!
This was made on a other planet. No doubt! Cannot pin this down as my fave, cos that's Pink Floyd's brilliance, you just can't choose one.
Medieval Chinese poetry + Arabic belly dancing music= Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun by Pink Floyd. What a masterpiece of music.
Do you know what exactly is from Chinese poetry? The lotus part?
@@spaceslav8954 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tang_poetry . The lotus part, yes, the "one inch of love is one inch of shadow, Love is the shadow that ripens the vine" part, "watching the watcher" etc. It does not directly quote. It more heavily borrows.
not arabic but persiantraditional music
Nick Mason is fantastic 🙏🙏👍and Rick Wright too
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotuses lean on each other in yearning
Under the eaves a swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Over the mountain watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine
Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
Witness the man who waves at the wall
Making the shape of his question to heaven
Whether the sun will fall in the evening
Will he remember the lesson of giving?
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
Thank you, me lady
Thanks for the lyrics of this fantastic song. Knowledge of love is the knowledge of shadow...
So nice of you. Thanks.❤️👉🏼☀️
@@obiestill5785 youre welcome. Good music taste also. I guess you like The Doors and Velvet Underground too? Also listen to Can - Deadlock, great album.
@@danebitirekao1922 I checked them out. Very cool. Have you ever heard Budgie before? Check out Parents. They do something with an electric guitar toward the end that makes it sound just like seagulls to my ear. Unique, I thought.
This is true raw talent. This band oozes musical genius. Long live Pink Floyd ✌🎶
thanks. unfortunately in the 1980s, it was hard to find guys like that--I tried. a few were genuine, but mostly I found people wanting to tell me how to play because of the lack of understanding of Floyd or Deep Purple for that matter.
♡♡
Pink Floyd what can I say. There is no other band!!!!
Seen them so many times. Heartfelt for those that are no longer with us.
I'll say Radiohead are at their same level
No no no ...... There is no other DAY
(Let's try it another way)
You'll ............... Oh well I'm sure you know the rest of it.
What about King Crimson ?
@@gillesleblanc7646 To me only The Beatles, Nico and Velvet Underground come somewhat close, but still very far away
This is why Live at Pompeii is better than the studio version
My all-time favourite spacey, trippy track. Just grabbed me and sent me. Does it every time. RIP Richard Wright.
More than 50 years ago and still keeps thrilling me this sort of music. Pink Floyd are the masters of progressive rock 🎸
And still plenty peaple deny it!
Absolutamente hypnotica.
The greatest band ever to walk the Earth!
,,,and space
Beatles mate no doubt
@@Yahniboy just to make it simple for everybody: Pink Floyd is Bach, Beatles is Johann Strauss (all Strauss)
At the beginning of the seventies, Pink Floyd music hit me like the apple hitting Newton's head.Everything I thought I'd known about music vanished away and I remained captive into this music ever since.
In 100 years it will be heard as classical music
I agree with you Vangelis but I think it's going to be like Beethoven and Bach in 200 years from now people will be listening to Pink Floyd like we listen to Beethoven and Bach now
people studying psychology and philosophy can write a thesis in this song
on*
Whereas a person studying anthropolgy or social psychology would have no difficulty summarsing why the general consensus is that Amna Javed's a pretentious tosser with little genuine grasp of psychology or philiosophy.
Who's the pretentious one here?
"Witness the man who raves at the wall, making the shape of his questions to Heaven"----The man is an old person praying at the wailing wall in Jerusalem. His hunched back and bowing head as he prays makes the shape of a question mark.
I am not religious, that is the only LOGICAL explanation to these lyrics. The entire song, if you understand it and analyze it carefully is a critique on religion, fool. It touches on the idea of dualism, or light and darkness and the necessitaty for both of them to exist equally because if there is too much light we might also be destroyed: hence the name of the song, Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun.
One of my favorite moments in the Live at Pompeii film (along with Echoes).
Marsha Rupe a saucerful of secrets is my favorite portion of the film. Can't beat Roger slamming that gong and David playing shoeless on the ground laptop style guitar!
gilmour plays shirtless the ampitheatre and mt versuvius bubbling vulcans forge is testimony to ancient times
All you hear about is Gilmour and Waters, but the time keeping of Mason and the the harmonies of Wright wow !
Richard Wright showed his best skills in this 🔥🔥
Now I finally see where Tool got their sound.
This is mesmerisingly good.
Tool really does sound like floyd but without keys
3:40 onwards, take us with you Nick, to the heart of the sun...
Tool also draws heavy inspiration from King Crimson.
same here
Jim Morrison ?
THis is the only song to have all members playing even syd, he recorded some guitar riffs you are hearing, and when he left they left him in this song and put david in with him...So its the only pink floyd song with Syd, David, Rodger, Nick, Richard.
Willdaberry Blue what about jugband blues?
Syd actually recorded half of this album. Nice profile picture, though, fellow nakama!
Too bad the guitar is barely audible
@@andbacil The Floyd bounced everything off Syd, he was the genius, the man at the controls, the springboard for everything which followed; would've loved to have heard Syd's completed version of this song.
Willdaberry Blue Syd Barrett is not on this track! He neither was on the studio version featured on "A Saucerful Of Secrets".
For some reason, Roger decided to record the song, without Barrett, over three sessions between August,1967~January,1968. Roger did add seagulls!
David Gilmour added a little Guitar towards the end of the song in January,1968.
Just saw Roger Waters show in SF two days ago- unbelievable experience! A multimedia extravaganza and at 79 years old, he hasn't lost a step! Nick Mason in Oakland Oct 2022 doing Saucerful of Secrets. Cannot wait! RIP SYD snd Rick.
What a timeless, mesmerising, transcendental song…
this song is certainly the most under rated of pink floyd's songs!
and is one of the most beautifull!
under rated? you make me laugh.. is a fuckin' anthem!
Samyaza, just look up the meaning of 'under rated', would you?
***** So true. So many gems are overlooked by a lot of people because they only bother with the most popular recordings.
***** I think no one would really dream of describing "Final Cut" as anything akin to overrated, wouldn't you think?
RIP Richard..
A truly MASTER.
Early Pink Floyd experimental is my favourite ...the more way out the more I love it
This is the first pink floyd song I heard when I was 14, and I fell in love with it. It's one of those songs that evoke such a spiritual, cosmic, mystic aura and feeling. It does transport you to a different plane musically. Also great track to listen to while tripping balls.
That’s Phrygian mode for ya, plus the band’s raw talent and creativity of course.
Brings back so many memories brilliant ❤
I really have to do homework, but I've fallen into the Pink Floyd trance yet again.
I was gonna hit them books, but then I got high, but then I got high, but then I got high-i -- Afroman (if he listened to Floyd, which maybe he does)
My God, I haven't given Floyd a good listen to since high school. This just reminded me why I fell in love with their music in the first place. Atmospheric; grande; introspective; absolutely incredible. I think I'm gonna go pack a bowl.
Why do drugs with floyd
Hopefully, sativa.
I don't know what possessed you to stop. I remember when Meddle came out, they were changing directions. This particular recording is something I listen to so much I probably pay for the advertising all by myself lol 😆😂😂😂
@@lizroberts6257 Yup. Blue Diesel goes well. Vortex even better.
@@izasana47 Yet , I will throw no shade on Alien OG, even tho' it's 50/50. 🤣
Awesome, psychedelic, relaxing. One of their best early tunes! 💗💗💗💗
nicks drumming is amazing in this song
Mad Matt Drummer almost as good as Jon bonom
Keith Moon, Mitch Mitchell...
This is real psy music, not any Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead and so on...Wish you were here Syd and Rick. Thank you for all your songs Pink Floyd.
Exactly, agree
Jefferson aiplane and grateful dead songs are also psychedelic , but no could do it better than pink floyd , they are the best of what psychedelic music can be , along with the doors song ' the end "
This stuff is more prog rock than it is psych rock but I see where you're coming from. Many would say Pink Floyd is the pinnacle of psychedelic rock music.
It is more like space rock
psychedelic music can assume many different forms, you may like this one more, but all are psycoactive
Super Nick Mason and Richard Wright. A real masterpiece ❤
The atmosphere of Richard’s section 5:16 is so damn amazing. Roger compliments how longer notes with the beautiful higher notes of his bass and the background of stoned bodies outlining Wright’s silhouette. It just makes the whole section so beautiful to listen to but so creepy to watch. I love everything about this version of the song, I can’t listen to the studio recording anymore because this version is so good. Nick Masons drumming is so good (as a drummer I’m so happy to hear this man popping off), Richard Wright’s ambient section is bone chilling, Roger Water’s vocals give me goosebumps. God damn I’ve never listened to older Pink Floyd as much but wow they went crazy on this track.
That is guitar sound.
Ancient magic of the sounds
A beautiful blending a d balance of sounds and music.
Best song by Pink Floyd ever.
Those who disagree are flawed and confused.
Totally agree with you..BTW the Wall was my least liked Floyd album. .huge commercial success but I found it rather discothequeish considering the time when it was released...
What
@@eastonmartin1400 What indeed
the camera man is very fond of nick
Max Roskilly who isn't?
I read that they lost al lot of video records so they was forced to use the saved record that focused on nick
also Nick is a great subject for the video, he is certanly the most energetic of the four while performing
Reason being is Drumming is constant movement..sound and motion ,,visually this is where the action is..the other musicians are static ,,and rightly so..jumping around & exaggerating their movement would appear foolish..so in this video format that is where the eye is pulled to...Being a Drummer and producer myself this is spot on
I don't blame him.
Pink floyd the greatest band ever.nick is simply amazing in this one
I watched the Machine and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra perform a Pink Floyd concert, I'm a Floyd fan all over again, this song was awesome live. What a masterful band, different than any other!!!!
Love the old Pink Floyd! Saw them in 72...fucking awesome!
Nothing quiet like it. Radio City on a 1000 Mics was revolutionary to say the least.
high hopes
in '70 and -72 ... totally agree. By far the best concerts I ever attended
+Greg Scherzinger You're lucky man!
the 'old' pink floyd? Do you mean before DSOTM and/or THE WALL? The 'old' pink floyd to me is before David Gilmour replaced Syd Barrett. I adore both musicians, and I love the whole gamut of PF's music from it's inception to present day, it is all magical imo. There is not one album I dislike! I love the tracks 'green is the colour' and 'cymballine' from the More soundtrack album for David's singing, and Lucifer Sam, Astonomie Donomie and Interstellar Overdrive from Syd for his riffs and inventiveness on the guitar, plus his melody composition! I don't care too much about the rift between Roger and the band in later years like some people do, as I don't think it is our business as fans to be honest... I think all the band members contributed something very special and don't like to compare Roger's solo efforts to David's, or Roger's PF material with the band to PF material after he'd left either. No one is a perfect human being, but their music together is truly amazing when they played together, despite the band politics. RIP Rick Wright and Syd Barrett.
Nice butterfly shirt Nick.
Melomania dude I really want that shirt tho.
I always wondered how cool it is for that old times!!! )
Bro I was tripping so hard on acid last night and I watched this video straight up fell in a trance watching nick bob his head😂😂😂.
Monarch MK Ultra.
GWR55 yep. Most on here don't know what that is.
I could never get tired of this. Such a great video and song. Nick and Rick are phenomenal here.
Richard Wright was phenomenal. The melodies gave pink floyd the opportunity to be fantastic. Genius
@@viniciuszamboni6911 Absolutely. He was the heart of Pink Floyd.
Live at pompei is Mason finest moment.
Today, when i am broken into a million pieces, this song makes me alive.

it's "knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow", really.
...love is the shadow that ripens the wine.

This song is severely underrated
Hands down, the absolute best thing about technology, being able to discover these videos.
Pink Floyd the best and fabulous band of century
Enter light or fall in darkness. This song opens either door.
DJ DOGO 美人だね‼️元気❓
Join the dark side.... of the moon.
This one makes my mind travel more than any song of the Floyd.. It gets me in a kind of trance but a smooth one.
Underrated song sadly who deserves way more credits and views..
Questa versione magica l'ho ascoltata in concerto dei Pink Floyd nel 1971 ad Rotterdam olanda,serata magica avevo 22 anni da allora fanno parte della mia vita .Roger col cerchio infuocato e stato magico genio insieme a tutto il gruppo,quelli erano e sono stati i veri floyd.ora ho 75 anni e tutti i giorni mi immergo nella loro musica di un altro pianeta,con loro volo nell'universo.
here we are again those drums
Jumanji!
and guitar
The way Nick tears at those drums.. I mean damn! Icons.. all of them are wonderfully beautiful icons.
Masterpiece of floyd, this song will live for eternity
Rick Wright just out of this world, so talented and a great vocalist RIP
Never seen them live which is a regret in life , by far the BEST EVER BAND.
SNELGRAVE101 Im going to a Nick Mason concert tonight. Wish the whole band was together
I only saw them once in 91. it was ok, but I think their hay day was in the early 70s, which is sad to say because it started out as Syd Barret's vision in the 60s.
Saw them on the Animals Tour in '77. Still emotional thinking about it. County Stadium, Milwaukee. Where the hell did all the years go?! Still as good as it was the first time I heard them.
It's not often you actually see the drummer controlling the whole song .
John Densmore is the king of doing that
always ..the Drummer holds the pace..directs the dynamic shift..enhance the whole vibe.shift attention..I AM A PROFESSIONAL DRUMMER,,Nick is so under rated it is sickening
listen to some jazz
Keith Moon as well
This dude naming other drummers shit actually Nick mason was ahead of its time. A double bass drum at that time of year, let's just put it this way he was the godfather of the double bass drum. Nick Mason is one badass drummer
Pour moi c'est leur meilleure période , repoussant les limites des conventions , un son glacial comme les immensités spatiales qui nous entourent...du très grand art !
Nick went off to smoke another joint and then came back in the perfect mindset to continue.
Nick,a sa façon de jouer,pas besoins de taper fort,il est très technique, très habile,aux percussion', mais comme tu dis très sous estimé, mais 'nick est le seul membre du groupe qui a participé a tous les albums.... que ce soit, avec,syd, Roger,et David,il aurait été médiocre,il ne serait pas rester...et sa montre bien que Nick était indispensable avec Floyd,ce groupe était très perfectionniste,et très disciplinés,a ce que j'ai lus malheureusement syd en a fait les frais...
A oui j'ai zappé l'histoire du joint,hé oui il fallait ce qu'il fallait,je l'ai lus récemment,,il a fait son travail 😉 tout simplement avec euphorie 👍👍👍

This song was SO far ahead of it's time, in 2020, we still have not hit the time...
but the form of this tune was just a blues, which all rock came from.
@@donalddrysdale246 I see everything everyone but a simple blues, it mixes arabic-sounding scale (probably smt like the Freigysh scale) with long mystic "improvisation" moment.
I've never smoked weed or been high, but i know that this masterpiece would probably be the sound i'll hear.
@@sk_yro9368 The main melody is in E phrygian, if I recall correctly
Solo loro potevano in quei anni arrivare a cosi tanto....solo loro!! Un miracolo della musica!!!!
This song gets me high! Why need drugs when you have pink floyd?
Nazifa Taha 美人だね‼️元気❓Ravishing and Luscious❗Vigorous❓
Drugs and Pink Floyd..bliss.
I got over dependant on LSD because I had serious personal problems.
@@donalddrysdale246 New research suggests psychedelics have a positive affect on people that suffer from depression.
To enjoy pink floyd as it should be even this is more acid than just cannabis.
That's what we should call psychedelic rock!
Hypnotic rock
Fly united
"Love is the shadow that ripens the wine". Yep!
Play: The End by The Doors right after this song! 20+ minutes of my life well spent!
The farfisa organ played by Richard wright creates a mystical ambience with the energetic drums of nick mason and scintillating vocal of Roger with a brilliant touch of Syd and gilmour that's make a pink floyd immortal
I always thought this was Nick Mason's finest piece of artistry on the drums.
This one and sheep, his best drumming performance!
