Alan Peterson Who at any label could tell Pink Floyd what they could or couldn’t do? Pink Floyd pretty much did what they wanted, especially by the time of this album, when they were so successful nobody could possibly say no to them. Besides, I doubt the labels are that afraid of the music business being criticized. If one of the big bands today, like U2 or Arctic Monkeys or Green Day, wanted to do the same who would try to say no to them?

After Sigma Six, they went to “The Pink Floyd Sound.” Then just Pink Floyd but for years “The Pink Floyd” kind of stuck. But after Dark Side......it was just Pink Floyd. They are still called “The Floyd” by many in the UK.

The singer on this track is Roy Harper, a british folk rock(?) musician. A good friend of both Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. Yeah, that last bit had us old buggers running for our record players wondering what was going on. :-) It Segues into 'Wish you were here'.

David Gilmour is one hell of a guitarist. You would never guess that he was born and grew up in a nice stately middle-class family life in Cambridge, England right after World War II. In fact, he played a concert many years ago where he played a solo not all that different from the one in this song. After his set was done on stage, as he went into the wings, a stunned B.B. King came up to him and simply said "Boy; you sure you ain't from Mississippi?"

The thing about Gilmour's solo's is that he put them down in one take quite often. He would go on stage and hit the same solo note for note, lick for lick. Makes me weep every time I hear his solo's. They are so beautiful.

I listened to that album so many times when it first came out had to get a 2 or 3 new albums because the needle cut deep grooves in it..but I learned every note of that album. And I said album vinyl album. In them days that's how you learned the music was to play it over and over catch every note. Every once and a while we could find some sheet music..but rare people today dont understand how easy they have it with the internet..

The song was criticizing the music industry and how they treat and use thier talent. One instance in the song which is a true story where one record executive actually asked which ones Pink? Like he didn't k ow it was the name of the band. Anyway love your videos and to see you enjoying yourself rocking out . Keep it up. Have a great day.

Tune !

Hey, I was raised on bebop jazz and rock n' roll (Little Richard definitely hit a chord with me as a youngster)... got a Pink Floyd tape from my mom around 17 (which naturally blew my mind) and then went on to 30 before discovering Parliament-Funkadelic on my own.... and they're now one of my all-time favorite bands. Each of us follows their own path. But loving music and being open to new genres is the key to happiness if you ask me. There is so much to discover and explore and so much to open your heart to. It's a real treat to see someone genuinely enjoy their first experience of music that has been part of my life for so long. It really feels like listening to it the first time myself.

One of the best Floyd songs,from one of their best albums. I remember when I was about 14 first hearing this whole album,I listened to the whole thing every other day for about a month. Btw I love your air keyboards ;) good stuff. keep up the Floyd,and you'll open up a whole new world with some of their early stuff,especially the trippy Syd Barret era from the first album. He was their first singer/guitarist who overdosed on acid and went crazy,and stopped wanting to perform live. They brought in David Gilmour to keep the band going,and his voice became the sound of the band,along with his amazing guitar playing. The whole Wish You Were Here album was pretty much about Syd Barrett as a tribute to him. Shine on your Crazy Diamonds is really talking about him in the lyrics. Extremely good music to smoke up with lol The first time I ever got super duper high smoking weed,me and my friend listened to this whole album and I heard it and fully understood it the right way. It also helps that our weed was laced with some psychedelics .....so yeah,fun stuff.

I loved your rock out. I had to run and play my vinyl version. So glad I got it. Thanks.

Even with as bad a day as I had today you always bring a big smile to my face. Thank you!

You are artistic enough to get Floyd. You are to be commended.

Roy Harper, a musician friend of the band, did the vocals on this one. There is also a great blues number by Led Zeppelin called Hats Off To Roy Harper, with killer slide guitar. I was also raised on blues, R&B, soul and Motown but also classic rock. Glad you’re getting into it too. There is real treasure in there!

From a Floyd fanatic...thank you! Perfect reaction video! ❤️

My favorite line in this song is "The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think...oh, by the way, which one is Pink?"

They reprise this in The Wall, where the main character of the storyline is named Pink.

Ah my favourite Gilmour guitar part, thank you for reacting to this it``s a rare floyd reaction vid. you have legend status with me now girl... kudos....the song is about getting a record deal and eventually getting fucked over and becoming a cash-cow for the record company, hence the picture from the album, the handshake and 1 man is on fire, means your getting burned lol, sung by roy harper who wasnt in pink floyd, and their best album IMO..

The bass rift on this song is awesome.

good lord, you're adorable lol

So cool seeing a younger person getting in to 60's and 70's classic rock music made 20 years or more before she was born. BTW young lady this song is the record company executives talking to the young musicians and telling them how they are going to make a bunch of money together. "Come in here dear boy and have a cigar, we're gonna to go far". Also listen to "Welcome to the Machine" on this album it is pretty much about the same thing.

Know where your coming from. Luckily I appreciated all music, big soul fan and at 65 years old was blessed with such legendary artists. Here in the UK I had to import most of my music as black music was not played on the BBC, maybe only a little Motown. As they say music transcends all barriers. Your reactions are great. Very interesting character enjoy watching and would love to know more about your background. No longer on the UK. Living in Thailand.😎

6:35 Really cracked me up lol

I dont know witch i like more , the song or your smile. Lol

Pink Floyd Had just finished Dark Side of Moon which in rock history is one of the greatest Albums of all time . The record company was pressuring them to create another hit album. Goes back to the money not the creative prosses of the artist. Love your reactions keep on keeping on girl

Yah... thats a shake and back on that song first thing in the morning hahahaha.. w/ a coffee too :-)~

A scathing critique of the record "industry" (corporate executives, etc.), and the first of 3 PFloyd reaction vids here with normal excellent sound... Yay!

Heh, I noticed the bottle of 409 too. I just figured that was how you kept the walls of your listening room so spotless. Parliament-Funkadelic is pretty heavy stuff too. Ever thought of reacting to cuts off of "Maggot Brain"? At any rate, once you stretch out past Floyd and Zeppelin, might I suggest that you check out The Who, The Rolling Stones, and David Bowie?

You should probably have done, 'Welcome to the Machine' together with this one. Welcome to the Machine precedes this song on the album. In the 70s the album was king. Many bands wrote albums, meant to be listened to in their entirety, rather than singles. Floyd were definitely one of those. In fact, when music streaming began, they tried to stop companies splitting up their albums into individual songs and, as preposterous as it sounds, they sort of had a point... When listening to a Floyd song, you'll often hear strange sounds or 'additional' music, at the beginning and/or end of a track. This is because, on the album, the songs usually flow into each other, without a break. Or will be linked together with some kind of 'soundscape'. The albums will often tell a story, or have a deep narrative theme. All told in a sonic tour de force. The songs make much more sense when heard an album at a time and they become even more powerful. The best way to listen to Floyd is, to pick an album, I recommend either, 'Dark Side of the Moon' or 'Wish You Were Here' to begin with, find a quiet relaxing space, no phone, no distractions and just listen , from the beginning to the end of the album, no pauses. It really is an incredible experience, I promise you. It may sound overblown but it really can be life changing! Anyway... tl/dr - Some songs belong together. 'Welcome to the Machine' and 'Have a Cigar' are such a couple of songs. Sound great separately but better together. :)

So Bluesy with an cosmic twist. Love it! Welcome to the Machine.. next

Referencing and recalling the time in which they were being signed to a major record deal.. Oh by the way, which one’s Pink? Lol Epic classic PF🎼

Scribe I have seen other comments mentioned Echoes. My preference is when band was in the Ancient Coliseum of Pompeii back in early 70's forgotten what year. They recorded Part 1and 2 of Echoes there live. Both parts are on KZread. I think Part 1 is longer than Part. Classic recorded video shows members when they were young jamming! At that time, it was 1st live event there since 79AD nearly 2,000 years ago until recently in 2016, David Gilmour and his solo band were there playing for live audience. Videos of the concert are on KZread too.

We're so happy we can hardly count! I bet they were (Pink Floyd's producer(s) I mean).
