Agree and would add one more thing to build on your point: Wish You Were Here may be the greatest follow up album ever made by a rock band. Pink Floyd’s previous record, “Dark Side of the Moon” was possibly the most groundbreaking rock record ever. Following up DSOTM with another almost equally stunning album in “Wish You Were Here” is unheard of.

Joy is nothing if not simple. It only takes us to complicate it. Roger Waters once said that when they were a young band they were at Abbey Road studios when The Beatles were recording Sgt. Peppers and said they were in awe at what could be done in that enclosed space. He realized then what direction his band should inevitably embark upon with different sounds and ideas. It sounds simple enough with the right inspiration. Doesn't it?

To us, Syd was one of the founding members of the band. To them, he was a beloved, creative, charismatic friend and band mate. Roger Waters knew him since they were kiddos. Dave Gilmour was 2 years behind them in HS. Dave made sure that Syd always received royalties after he had his collapse--throughout his life. They sometimes re-issue Syd's early work to keep him as part of the pF band/brand. I often have thought as young as they were when Syd drifted away, how scarred they were by that. We do not handle MH issues NOW--so many decades later. This is a tribute to their friend. Check out the live version from the 'Pulse' concert, too.

@@robertmartin8565 Waters claims he and Syd were in primary school together--and neighbors. From the single digits. Gilmour speaks that he was 2 years behind them in HS. Dave had earlier band experience than they did in the Cambridge scene. They all talk about what a vision Syd was in school--how charismatic. My point was we can appreciate the music they all created. But they had authentic relationships from childhood that more deeply colors and marks them differently than fans or people not connected in private life. Their collective pain never being able to visit him, for example b/c his sister said it upset him when he tried to remember their connection. Even amongst ourselves, when something profound hits us at younger ages, we struggle to process it. Their events with their friend and bandmate was on the global stage as it imprinted the band and their creative output.

IMHO, this is the best song Pink Floyd ever did. The notes are so well chosen. They arrangement is so brilliant. The feel is ethereal. It just takes you somewhere only to bring you back. And that sax... Man... My hair is standing on the back of my neck and arms as I listen to it, now! And...the fact that Sid Barrett, who this song is about, appeared in the studio out of nowhere as they recorded this album, never said a word, and left is just haunting.

Syd Barrett was still alive when the released this song. He lived until 2006 while struggling with mental health issues. There's a sad story about a time towards the end of them making this album that, after not seeing him for 7 years, Syd actually walked into the studio during a mixing session for this track. They all said he seemed diminished and faded. They said he had no clue the songs were about him and also that at some point he just left quietly without saying anything to anyone or anyone noticing him leave.

@johnplaysgames3120 11 ай бұрын

The other part of the story I've heard the band members mention is that they actually saw Syd in the studio during the session but didn't know it was him at first. He'd put on weight, had shaved his head and eyebrows, and seemed distant and foggy. The band was confused by his presence and assumed he must be one of the crew members or something. When Gilmour finally recognized that it was Syd, Waters broke down and cried. That same day was also Gilmour's wedding day and Syd wandered into the reception at EMI and then, at some point, left without saying anything to anyone.

Syd founded Pink Floyd in 1965 but was only on their first two albums Piper At the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets. The band had to let him go because of his mental instability due to too many LSD trips. They were certainly more successful without Syd but there would be no Pink Floyd without him. They had released a couple of singles with Syd as well. "See Emily Play" would be a fun tune to see y'all react to if you're interested in going that far back into their catalogue. It's cool to see you're getting back to Pink Floyd and that you're open to listening to longer pieces of music. A lot of prog & psychedelic rock consist of long songs. Happy b-day, Amber! Glad y'all enjoyed it.

Roger Waters the greatest lyricist of all time. Richard Wright, David Gilmour, and Roger Waters- the greatest composers of music of all time. (Fixed it for you. Most of DSOTM’s music was composed by Wright and/or Gilmour. A number of the most memorable songs on the Wall were composed by Gilmour with Waters or entirely by Gilmour. Of course Waters wrote all the lyrics and after he left the band, Gilmour had to get outside help on the lyrics.)
