Well, this track. I promise you (and of course I could look an absolute idiot saying this) I haven't looked at the credits but for me, Richard Wright is all over this song. I absolutely hate most of his work. I've got both of his solo albums and there's precious little I find of merit in them...
If the people in the restaurant are enjoying the food, it's very good to them whatever the chef in the restaurant thinks, and that's what really matters.
Yes, you're absolutely right and I've got my timing wrong. Doh!
I've always hated it (not that I've listened to it very much - why would I)?
Right from the very start with the dodgy time-keeping by Mason it's difficult to listen to, and compared to 'Meddle' it's a bit of a shambles. I don't...
I've had this idea in my mind for many many years now that PF didn't really do anything meaningful until 'Echoes' came along as far as I was concerned. Listening to the first fifteen minutes of this has done nothing to make me change my mind I have to say.
A very impressive rendition IMO!
There are loads and loads of these around with the notes illuminated so you can see what's being played (if you need to). It's how I learned 'Clair de Lune). :D
It was always a problem back in the sixties when I was learning the piano. Unless you had a record deck with a stroboscope or you could vary the speed of it it was difficult to get in tune. These days of course synths are always perfectly A = 440 Hz (unless you want to change it of course).
It must have been a fantastic coincidence that the piano and the music from the turntable were perfectly in tune with one another. It would have sounded horrendous if they weren't, I'm thinking.
The first time I heard this song was just a few weeks ago. I've played it several times since then, enough times to be able to tell whether or not I'm hearing exactly the same version here. It's identical, and since the song was recorded in a recording studio and here the boys are definitely not...
Yes is one band that somehow I never got into in the sixties (despite the fact that one of the girls I shared a flat with in Gloucester road was sleeping with Chris Squires, the bass player (and he and I grew up together and went to the same primary school)).
Just by chance I heard the above...
