- So since they are on me like white on rice right now, we have to just duo videos. This is basically an experiment so let's see how it goes. Welcome to Floyd Friday! It's always something lol... they have been taking my videos down left and right the past two days. But both of these songs were so relaxing... but it's just the calm before the storm that is "Echoes".

I love Fearless.
You’ll Never Walk Alone is sung by a crowd at a Liverpool football match. It’s the team song.
Ahhhh ok I'm clueless about soccer. The only sport I don't know an unbearable amount about. And I played it for years. Lol
That was the real pink floyd
Meddle is actually my favorite Pink Floyd album. Often overlooked. The “non-echoes” side is outstanding and of course Echoes is great. There is a lot of pre-Dark Side that is worth a listener’s time.
Same here. Dark Side is a masterpiece, but Meddle just does it for me, with the great song writing and more spare arrangements.
Me too. Fearless is my favourite post Syd Floyd track. It gives me goosebumps every time, even after listening to it for over 40 years. Sue me.
Meddle was the album that made me a Pink Floyd fan for life back in 1972 when I was a junior in high school. Then the following year DSOTM happened lol. I wore the grooves off both vinyl LPs and the ones that followed. 50+ years later they're still my all-time favorite band. San Tropez 100% sounds like it could have been written by Paul McCartney, kind of a When I'm 64/Maxwell's Silver Hammer type joint. Echoes will blow your mind like everyone else's. Great reaction, keep 'em coming.
These two span the range between estatic and nostalgic.
Yes, exactly. The whole album shows the range of the solid musicianship within the band at this point (also, the beautifully modulating guitars in "A Pillow of Winds", the song just before Fearless).
Fearless is the first Pink Floyd song I ever loved and became obsessed with, when I was a kid in the late 70’s. My Dad had this album his record collection, but his younger brother had already scooped up all his other Floyd records. Uncle Dave’s loss in leaving Meddle behind was definitely my gain!
As someone now in recovery, this song, especially the first verse, means even more to me.
Love watching your Floyd journey. ❤️
CHILHOODS END from the album Obscured by Clouds is a must !
WoT’s uh the Deal is my favorite
@@scotstevens5263 Wot's Uh The Deal is my favorite as well
Both!
The you'll never walk alone part is the crowd at a soccer match.
Somewhere out there Seamus lurks in the shadows...
Along with Spiney Norman the hedgehog. Dinsdale!! Dinsdale!!
😂
He's with his old mate now.
He's outside in the sunset.
LEE - You got the Nick being Ringo for a song or two spot on.. I'm sure it's what makes it feel "Beatles-y" And talking of the Beatles, as we seem to more and more these days. Revolver was their pivotal moment when everything changed and Sgt Peppers was next... Well with Floyd I think Meddle was their Revolver before they pivoted and slammed out of the gates with Dark Side of the Moon. Keep on Rocking young sir....
And I’ll climb that hill in my own way. Nice.
The Beatles may have kick-started the Merseybeat era, but in terms of UK chart success they played second fiddle for a short while to fellow Liverpudlians Gerry & The Pacemakers, the first act to top the charts with their first 3 singles. The third of these was You'll Never Walk Alone, which was adopted by the fans of Liverpool FC as a kind of anthem. Supporters had sung at football grounds before, but for thousands to belt out a current chart hit was something new. It was seen by many as an expression of working-class solidarity - in the days when going to a game wouldn't cost you much more than the price of a couple of beers - and Floyd were known to admire the city and its people for their uncompromising left-wing political views.
Great reaction. Have a like and a subscribe.
The 1968 to 1972 period of Floyd is fascinating to me, they had the freedom to try different ideas, before record company pressure came into the picture.
They got to do what they wanted, exactly.. once that money comes knocking, and if you answer that door, you'll find out quick, that you ain't no more (in the tune of Fearless lol)
XFLexiconMatt the band considered that time as their lost years. After Syd they were looking for direction. I do appreciate most of the music from those years. The 1st Floyd album I bought was Ummagumma. I still have it.
@donpardo2510 I became so familiar with the classic era, 73 onward, and know those albums back to front that I just find the earlier records interesting.
@@donpardo2510 Ummagumma was the album that baptized me a Floyd fan.
A lot of Floyd fans don’t care much for these 2 songs. I think they’re great little ditties; just fun to listen to. 😊 “A Pillow of Winds” is the song you were thinking of I believe.
I’ve always loved the quieter songs on Meddle, so chilled.
I love these 2 songs 😂
"I'm drinking Champagne like a good tycoon" is one of my favorite lyrics
Floyd FOREVER!!!🥁☮☘
This is gonna be a fun morning. I can already hear these playing in my head, and earworm worth being a host to. ;-) See you at 8:00 am PST.
Nick has one of the best snare sounds in rock
The many layers of guitars in that small solo break is simply beautiful. Definitely get Beatles vibes from this song. They recorded at the same time and in the same studio as the Beatles.
St Tropez has Harry Nilsson all over it. Waters' lyrics, shuffle tempo, double voice track .. still a ripping good tune on its own.
If you're into going through albums Obscured by Clouds is an often overlooked but fantastic album.
"Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd" is likely a half-veiled allusion to Syd Barrett - "idiot" being used here in a metaphorical way, like "quirky loner guy". The song is about restoring a sense of confidence in yourself, about climbing out of a ditch of depression - and also about the individual vs the group. The crowd chanting "You'll never walk alone" is an illustration of the positive, buoyant sense of belonging with a group, in a non-restrictive way.
I love this album (and seventies Floyd in general) - for many years "Meddle" with its ear cover, was sitting at the front of my collection of LP albums, stored in two disused beer crates open at the top. :)
The Rodgers and Hammerstein "you'll never Walk alone" happens at soccer tournaments and that's what that one was recorded from.
Seamus is the track where Floyd have a joke with us. Special guest lead vocals!
I will have to include it in the video with Echoes then 😀
True and AGAIN with no words...almost as good as Clare Tory...🤣🤣🤣
@@L33Reacts I recommend doing it before Echoes. I think it will fit better "mood-wise" for most people, and that's the running order on the CD/album.
Some people dislike that track, but I love it. Cheeky and fun, with a good blues feel.
My first ever Floyd album back when I was 16 years old in 1971. it in a way is transition album where they eventually got their signature sound with echoes that led to their next release Dark side of the moon. previous albums had some good stuff on as well they were really experimenting with them check out Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast off Atom Heart Mother (the album cover has a gorgeous lady looking back at you with dark soulful eyes) or Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict off Ummagumma
Laughing at your description of the Atom Heart Mother album cover.
Meddle is the hinge between their earlier experimental quirkiness and the later expansive epics. BTW it would be good to react to You'll Never Walk Alone by Gerry And The Pacemakers. It's not the original but is the definitive cover that would give cultural context to the Floyd use of the Liverpool fiotball fans recording.
My favorite album and Fearless is my favorite song on this side. Echos, of course, is my favorite Floyd song.
Their showcase album of diversity from Echoes to San Tropez a bit of everything.
San Tropez is really good even for Floyd. All the band - Waters singing, Gilmour on very jazzy guitar and slide (he’s so much more than just solos), and some of the best solo piano from Rick. All held together by Nick.
Fearless is also fantastic.
Lee, if you love Rick, “Summer 68” from Atom Heart Mother is an excellent song. It’s his song: main vocals, washes of piano layers, Dave on harmony and strumming, all at a pretty fast pace ❤
"Summer '68" is a remarkable song, one of my favorites from their entire catalog.
@@terrycunningham8118 Totally agree. It’s Rick all the way with Dave strong too. I never tire of the song
"Nil Iligitimus Carborundum!" My friend and Keep Reacting!
Fearless what the first song I ever learned on guitar.
Awesome
Interestingly, Pink Floyd in the beginning didn't care about the market, they recorded what they wanted freely, with 4 masterpieces in a row Meddle, Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here and Animals, none of them repeat the other or are at least similar, a fantastic creativity from this marvelous band .
Yeah so far every album has been completely different... I think WYWH is my favorite so far, but that and animals are the only ones I've heard all the way through lol
~~~ Not to give too much away, but a variation on "Seamus" appears in the "Live at Pompeii" film,
under the title "Mademoiselle Nobs" ~~~~
I recommend doing Seamus before Echoes. I think it will fit better "mood-wise" for most people, and that's the running order on the CD/album.
I think with a little less of Roger’s influence later on, Meddle is probably the overall vibe the band would have been in the 70s. This is a very organic sound.

Re: "You'll Never Walk Alone", In the era before high tech PA systems it was traditional for football (soccer) crowds in the UK to belt out songs at the top of their lungs. It was how they showed support for their team, and filled breaks in the game. I remember as a teenager being totally confused, although it was very Pink Floyd (and British) to just randomly stick that on the end of a song. Which then feeds into the Beatles comparisons, which is actually on the money. They were always lurking in Pink Floyd music (hey, PF recorded their first album next to The Beatles making Sgt Peppers at Abbey Road, so it HAD to rub off on them), but it was on this album that all that started to come forward. This would develop further on 'Obscured By Clouds' before coming of age on 'Dark Side Of The Moon'.
I am in my 8th decade and 60+ years later, Football crowds still never rely on any P A System. All chants are started by the crowd apart from the start of a Liverpool home match when YNWA comes on:)
On the album "Meddle", only "One of these days" and "Echoes" are worth your time, in my opinion. The rest is just filling-in material. I say that considering myself a fan of the band.
This is the first time I noticed that some of of Gilmour’s riffs in Fearless a could have played by The Band’s Robbie Robertson…
Yep, either Roger or David has credited "Music from Big Pink" and other early albums by The Band as a deep, powerful influence on the Floyd. But I agree with Lee about the Beatles vibe in these songs too, the "Nick being their Ringo" thing: they do have that kind of groove.
Do Atom Heart Mother Studio Album it is experimental This Album lead to Echoes
I probably will get to that one eventually! Floyd Friday ain't goin nowhere even if they cost me money basically lol I love them. Their music is almost sacred feeling at points.
Ummagumm is🔥 If you listen to their albums in order From their start. You'll hear the progression in their music to what it became Definitely a good ride. I've been a fan since the 60s
