Boronalli: KQED: An Hour With Pink Floyd directed by Bob Diehl

the concert of Hyde Park, mixed with an organization of cords and brass orchestra which killed in the egg all its rocky lightnings. Since then, the fevered quest did not contain of filmed clips, bootleg albums, then at the age of the net, fragments of concerts with a more or less good character in Florida or in Japan, of a point in BBC or a concert in Saint Tropez. And miracle, the without-public concert done for QKED was recorded with high video and sound quality, and reappeared recently. In a studio without public, on April 29th, 1970, Pink Floyd on stage play a point where in an hour, alternately acoustical or electrical. They are passing to form a mosaic of their three albums an hour, " Ummagumma ", "More" and "Atom heart mother".
It opens with " the thing ", 19 minutes of "Atom Heart Mother", its topic, its guitar riff, its cosmic ravings and final. "Cymbaline" and "Grantchester meadows" follow, and electricity again with "Green is the colour" chained with a furious "Careful with that axe Eugene" to end in a dreamy way with "Set the controls for the sum of the sun".
The voice is really good, perfectly restored (from the 3/4" original master) and pictures come from a rerun of the point in August, 1981. The picture starts and ends with pictures of in-flight fields taken in low flying, with hyper-saturated colours, a bit "forced " but as a result well-deserved psychedelic style. For those for whom true Pink Floyd is that early "Dark face of the moon", this concert will be the objective to be cherished, so often the concerts of this tour were artistic and emotional peaks of the band. Each of four members is on his place, but with all his place, necessary part of an enchanting jigsaw puzzle. Graal belongs to you. Franois Branchon

Divina Infusino: Roger Waters Stands up With The Wall

Amid Pink Floyd`s brooding, soaring sound, the disturbance generated by the band`s internal conflicts and the clamor around the group`s legendary live shows, beat Roger Waters` political heart.

It grew louder and more say in the group`s later albums The Wall and The Last Cut and again in Waters` solo work. But now, at age 67, and seemingly happier and more at ease than ever, Waters wears that spirit on his arm in his current live staging of The Wall.

DOOMMANTIA: Blue Aside - The Orange Tree

blueasidecover DOOMMANTIA: Blue Aside - The Orange Tree
Blue Aside's "The Orange Tree" with what looks like a red tree on the top or perhaps I am color-blind is an album that is immediately interesting from the real spin because of the way their influences are blended into a seamless package all of their own. While mixing psychedelic space rock with doom metal is nothing new, the ring get a voice that suggests they are carving out their own little corner in the scene.

Our music team attended and reviewed a lot of concerts this year, and out of that bunch we've pulled together a number of apiece of our favourites, though naturally there are a few double-ups.

ldquo;The Wall” – Pink Floyd – “The Wall” (1979)

"The proof is in the pudding."What does that mean?Do people eat a bag of pudding and so take this epiphany and say, "I`m convinced, God does exist, the proof is in the pudding."A little research/Google reveals that the master saying was "the validation of the pudding is in the eating."That definitely makes more sense.It would be similar if I had some friends over for dinner and decided to make durian pudding for dessert.

Across The Kitchen Table: Unlike John Lydon I Love Pink Floyd

pink_floyd-1033 Across The Kitchen Table: Unlike John Lydon I Love Pink Floyd
I've ever loved Pink Floyd and I don't think the hip Pink Floyd of the Syd Barrett days which is satisfactory to name drop without being laughed out the pub. That material is okay, well most of it but if you ask me the man could get done without Bike or Gnome; the material I know is the over blown pomposity of Dark Side of The Moon, The Fence and The Final Cut.

This is the case of Fu Manchu (it makes no smell at all)

I never got lyrics. When I was a teenager, my reason of English was generally better than my peers, just because I spent so much time in the UK. No, scrap that. I only picked it up because my brain thought I was English - crossed synapses or something. Anyway - if I listened to the lyrics, I knew what they meant. I simply couldn't see them or remember them.
