Vor einem halben Jahrhundert haben wir Boomer aus dem Westen - damals Teenies - uns gerne mit Musik von #PinkFloyd berauscht. Wir legten die Vinylscheiben auf und versanken im schummrigen Schein der in Glühlampentauchlack gefärbten Lichtquellen in wohlige Trance, wenn wir Stücke wie #Echoes hörten, die eine gesamte Plattenhälfte lang waren. Was wir allerdings nicht hatten, waren moderne Screens und KI-generierte Traumbildsequenzen, die das musikalische Erlebnis unterstützten. Boomer sagen dazu vielleicht: "Brauch ich nicht - hab die Musik immer ohne das gehört und meine eigenen Phantasien dazu!" Jüngere sagen vielleicht "Cooles Bildgewitter - aber hätte man dazu nicht vielleicht etwas modernere Musik nehmen können?"

Sie hörten den Satz "Hey You" von Roger Waters aus der sinfonischen Dichtung "The Wall", gespielt vom Ensemble #PinkFloyd unter der Leitung des Komponisten.
Weshalb sie mich damals als Moderator nicht genommen haben, ist mir bis heute ein Rätsel.
Four years ago today, #DavidGilmour of #PinkFloyd put several of his guitars up for auction at Christie's in New York City. Over $21million went to a charity called 'Client Earth' which merges lawyers and environmental experts committed to combating the ravages of the global environmental crises.
"We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year."

Avete mai ascoltato i Punk floyd? Probabilmente no, visto che su Spotify siamo solo 302 gli ascoltatori abituali 😅
I Punk Floyd sono una band svedese che ha riarrangiato diversi album dei Pink in acustico, con mandolini, violini, organetti 😱
Io li adoro, e adoro la versione "the waltz" di the wall ❤️ ecco un assaggio, su Spotify c'è la discografia completa.
#DavidGilmour released his self-titled solo album on this day 45 years ago. It was his first solo effort outside of #PinkFloyd. Today's feature song is actually a cover of a song he produced for #Unicorn on year earlier.
"There's no way out of here
When you come in
You're in for good
There was no promise made
The part you played
The chance you took"
Early #pinkfloyd -- this was a hypercreative version of the band, in the 60s--not that the Dark Side of the Moon version was not creative, great stuff, but there's something right on the edge, something very pure, a creative innocence going on here that is marvelous:
🎵 Stepmama's gonna make all of your
Nightmares come true…
Stepmama's gonna put all of her fears into you…
Stepmama's gonna keep you right here
Under her wing…
She won't let you fly but she might let you sing…
Stepmama will keep baby cosy and warm…🎶
Today, April 28, in 1973 – The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd, recorded in Abbey Road Studios goes to number one on the US Billboard chart, beginning a record-breaking 741-week chart run.
It was on this day 50 years ago that 'The Dark Side of the Moon' by #PinkFloyd hit # 1 on the U.S album charts. It stayed there for one week...Overall, it spent an unbelievable 741 weeks on the Billboard Top 200.
"And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon."
A moment to share some genuine love for Pink Floyd's 2014 album Endless River. Essentially an instrumental exercise building on out-takes of keyboardist the late Richard Right, it includes moments of sublime, hair-standing beauty (q.v. Ebb and Flow).
I'm not comparing it with their other work, although it is reminiscent of the best instrumental bits of Wish You Were Here, due in no small part to the prominence of Wright on both.
