Brilliantly beautiful....love it even more than 1-5....and I know they have many more gems just as good that I've yet to discover....Thanks so much for watching! 🥰

FIRST OF ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FROM ITALY

That final section is just so, so beautiful.

One of my absolute favorites in their discography……Section 6 blows me away…..every….single….time….always gives me goosebumps….

For me this is Pink Floyd at their best. And the amazing thing is, they were their best for multiple records. On top of that, all these albums are so different. This is why Pink Floyd are the masters .

Love this Album so much. Still listen to it all regularly, even after 48 years. Shine On Pts I-V and VI-IX, I love in equal measure. It’s all so brilliant, the whole Album from beginning to end. Once again, glad you love it too. Magnificent. 🎶❤️🎶

That high, soaring, screaming-to-the-heavens guitar solo is why God made electric guitars. Wish it went on thrice as long.

I agree , 6-9 is absolutely brilliant. But best is 1-9 !

The song was initially supposed to be a one side composition of the album. It was spilt up… in one sense I feel it shouldn’t have been split up as the part VI-IX are less played… but on the other note, it frames the story… great tune anyhow

Yes - its awesome :)

Fashionably late......This is OUTSTANDING!!!! A work of ART!!!! 💎💎💎💎💎🎶🎶🎶

in my top five of all pink floyd masterpiece

It resolves into a major key at the end and all is right with the world.

There's Something Magical When Watching Another Lover of Music - Listening to Pink Floyd ♥️ ! - It Giv's back that Magical Memory of Listening the 1st Time also 💖 Peace to You

Another awesome reaction Brandon! IMO the entire 26 minute Shine On You Crazy Diamond suite (parts 1-9) is their magnum opus. I think it is so much better than Echoes or anything else for that matter. It is the essence of Pink Floyd in one musical masterpiece. To answer your question, there were two female backing vocalists: Carlena Williams and Venetta Fields. Thanks again!

Back in the '70s, If you brought a Pink Floyd album to the party, You were the hit of the party. ...you were also very nervous that some dummy might damage your album.

I came to this page for the Floyd, but I stayed for your amazingly concise analyses. It's so refreshing to see, and hear, a younger generation wondering to the incomparable talent that comprises Pink Floyd, far beyond the "WOW" factor exhibited by so many first-timers. They are, IMO the greatest band in history, and a genre unto themselves. Your reactions and analyses are spot on - a real treat for those of us who have been listening to this magic for 50 years. Bear in mind, all of this incredible music was created before computer aids like today (overdubs, tape looping, sound effects, etc.). It's obvious that you are truly appreciative of complex music with quirky changeups, structure, insightful lyrics, and all the slightly subsurface (yet fitting) sounds and instruments that make PF so emotionally addictive....all of which are definitely intended to evoke a reaction, yet never disturbing the flow. They don't simply plug into their amps - they plug directly into you heart, mind, and soul. They're the primary reason that I lean towards prog now, where sonic experimentation and eclectic time and signature changes are the norm. Upon viewing your history, I see that you've only recently dabbled in the other band of the era that is a genre unto themselves - Steely Dan. Like PF, they are far more than the ubiquitous "rabbit hole" - they are both more like mine shafts....extremely deep, with a myriad of surprising side tunnels. Don't enter unless you are really into the possibility of exploration with the possibility of never returning to 'normal' music. Their unequivocal adherence to immaculate performing and production is rivalled only by PF. You could easily have a perfect reaction channel for months by previewing just these two musical titans. Please give us more of each - I'll be standing by waiting eagerly. Bravo.

Absolutely love everyone’s playing on this masterpiece! Listened to this CD and Animals on the way to my mom’s yesterday. 🙌🏼💥👏🏼

Although not a keyboard wizard like some of his contemporaries, Richard Wright was (is) able with his unique playing and sounds to take you where no one ever could.

I believe I came to music more seriously (learning piano and more) in the early 80' after listen to this suite complete, well the whole album for sure. Very nice keyboards on this work particularly, even more than Dark side of the Moon or Animals that I also have in my favorites, Richard Wright of course supported by all the band obviously, and the unavoidable guitars of David Gilmour 😇.

The lasts notes played by Rick at the end are the melody of the verse from "See Emily Play". Their first single (IIRC), a song by Syd Barrett. You have to listen to it now :)

Hi ! well it s friday and it s a good long one ! So i m gonna get comfortably numb and sit and enjoy this one with you ! lol ! ya ! that s what i m talkin about ! 🥴😎💎👀

Love this song and this album so much. Love the whole song parts 1-9 with maybe just a tad bit more of an edge towards 6-9. I get that same feeling of kind of a melancholy uplifting at the end in part 9. What an epic opus to their friend and former bandmate Syd. Thank you for another great reaction!

WYWH is a spiritual experience. Such a masterpiece, especially this ending piece. Excellent reaction!

Part IX is their finest hour.

Pure beauty 😍🙏

One of my very favorites from Pink Floyd.

reminds me of turning off the lights, rolling a fatty and lighting a strobe candle.

It' s so joyfull discover this great old music and let yourself hijack to another dimension. When I was young I had a friend of mine who has a wall filled with cassettes with the best music in the world and every week he gave me 2-3 pieces and after week we discussed what I've heard. It was school of music - I was "modern guy" grewed up in 80/90's and listen to 70's prog music was something for old people 😀 But finally it make me to have open mind, receive everything and make my own opinion. 😉

Nel finale Richard Wright alle tastiere suona con un arrangiamento molto suggestivo, il motivo di " See Emily play " la canzone creata all'epoca dei loro esordi insieme a Syd Barrett...sempre presente come un fantasma in tutto l'album a lui interamente dedicato.

Part 9 always gets to me, so dramatic. Reminds me of some parts of Atom Heart Mother by them

The final keyboard ending, a Coronanet I think it's technically called, was a Rick Wright adlib he said just felt right at the time. They liked it so much it was reteained in the final song mix. I'm old enough to remember hearing this whole album on UK Radio 1 as an experimental quadraphonic pre-release. Uninterrpted and totally unheard of. You can imagine what the lead in section to Wish You Were Heere track did to everyone !

Without Richard Wright Floyd wouldn't have been the same. You really need to listen to Saucer Full of Secrets on Saucer Full of Secrets. As that song Perhaps is Richard Wright's most extensive work. It is another long song, but much of it features him. There's also a drum Cadence throughout part of the song that even after it ends it stays stuck in your head. It is there earlier works giving us a perceived perception of what was to follow. ✌️ 🤠🐂🏞️

I recommend Phil collins In the air tonight LIVE HD (The First Farewell Tour) for your listening pleasure

To me (most of the time) their magnus opus.

The very last few notes in part 9 was an homage to one of Syds songs by playing the exact same notes from his song. I wish I could remember which song it was!!! It may have been "Bike" ? I hope someone will correct me on the right song here!!

😎👍

Check out the version from Gilmour’s “Live At Gdańsk “. Very intimate. Just David and Rick on the first parts respecting the two people on the stage who knew Syd. Made me cry ( a few times).

I really ❤your reactions and channel 💯

Set the controls for the heart of the sun of Ummagumma or Pompeii would be nice 🙏

I've never listened to the Part 6 solo in the company of a dog, but I'd like to do it some day, to test my theory: that David continues the solo and keeps raising the pitch, but you can't hear it because it's ultrasonic... 🤣I wonder how many guitar learners that solo led to suicide, like "I'm nobody, I'll never be able to play like that!" 😭 As much as I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan, however, there is one band that I think was even better in terms of build-ups, of gradually building moods and atmospheres: *The Who.* An example: "Bargain", the second track of the masterpiece album "Who's Next". Not the best or the most remarkable song in the album (probably that would be "Won't Get Fooled Again", a song that alone would ensure any band a place in the rock pantheon, though "Baba O'Riley", "The Song Is Over", "Behind Blue Eyes" are all outrageously good), but perhaps "Bargain" is the song that best illustrates The Who's uncanny talent to build up moods. "Bargain" starts as an okay rock song, not bad, but rather ordinary. By the end you have your mouth open and your jaw on your knees, and the point is, you never knew how you got there, so gradual it was. Brilliant!

Understanding that everyone has their own personal life apart from our own the band was never quite the same after he left. Even the division bill which truly was recorded separately is beautiful. I always liked the original release of Roger Waters radio chaos. He apparently wasn't happy with it and although many like his additions I'm not exactly fond of the extended version. It follows the same format both in Pink Floyd style and Roger Waters apparent personal reflections of living at 0 Minutes to Midnight. You might sneak that one in on a Pink Floyd extra. It is a concept album also. So..... ✌️ 🤠🐂🏞️

It´s an absolutely awesome album, for sure, but i don´t know why...i always didn´t like the sound of one of Wright´s keyboards he´s using all over the LP (here lead keyboard on Part 6 and 9). Is it a synth or the Minimoog?

highest point achieved in the history of music?
