Julia Dream is such a pretty little tune! Love it :grinthumb

Here's another one, this time one of Rick's compositions, with him actually singing lead. Some pretty funny stuff in this video, as they were miming it for TV. Watch out for David boogie-ing down at about 1:20! :)

Glad you're enjoying it! :grinthumb You mentioned the 3rd disc of Piper? So you got the 40th anniversary editon with the mono singles and alternate versions of Matilda Mother and IO? Excellent.

Once you've heard all their studio work, get some of the live bootleg shows. They are amazing, powerful performances, quite different than what's put on the albums.

Actually a great place to start for live stuff is Ummagumma. It's a double album put out in 1969. One disc is live while the other one is studio. Excellent versions of Careful With That Axe, Eugene, Set The Controls For The Heart of the Sun, Saucerful of Secrets!

Merry Christmas all!!:tongue: I know Christmas is long since passed, but I completely forgot about this one. And there are precious few cute, little Floyd tidbits that I just have to share it.
And ignore what YouTube says, it was not recorded in 1975; it was done in 1969.

I listened to Wish You Where Here for the 1st time today(I've had it for a few weeks now but haven't got round to it until today),i enjoyed it but i much prefer Piper,Animals,Dark Side,Atom Heart Mother.I haven't listened to More yet.If i was to pick my least favourite,i would have to say i can't get into A Momentary Lapse,it's not a bad album but i always lift one of the others.

I always like to listen to the same album 5 or 6 times before i jump to another album,i think it's the only proper way to take a band that's new to you in.I will listen to Wish You Where Here a few more times over this next few days.

I think it was LG who said that Pink Floyd are a band whose albums have to grow on you, and I agree. They definitley reveal more after repeated listenings. WYWH is quite a departure from DSOTM, much darker, sadder. Give it time.:)

I will give it plenty of time to grow on me,it kinda' bothers me to listen to anything other than Floyd at the moment.I also have my first Pink Floyd Boot on its way.:)
