I was way into Pink Floyd in my mid to late teens. Actually went to se them live in Gothenburg Sweden on their last real tour in 1994! One thing I loved when I started to dig backwards in their catalog was that the records were so different. They had a distinctive recognizable style but every album had its own thing going and you never really knew what to expect!
Heard you cite this in latest Chordplay as the first one and went back to watch it, glad I did. Awesome concept of taking bits from great songs/bands, teaching and explaining, and setting us loose to explore. Thanks!
What a monster player with a big sense of harmony you are !! Each time I come to learn something I forget about it and found myself absorbed by how you describe things (very philosophical I love it) and how good you play !!! Can’t stay focus on the lesson while I’m hanging on how musical your play is.. You’re kinda musician who transport the spirit of the listener away !!! Awesome !
My brother from another mother! I too, love to steal ideas from great songs and incorporate them into my improvisations. I'm not very interested in learning others songs all the way through, but there's a lot of things to latch onto within those songs. Thanks for another great insight. You have a new subscriber 😉👍
Gm13? No way. Are you supposed to say that out loud? You just unlocked the Ark of the Covenant! The Holy Gilmour Grail! He who dares pluck these four notes shall forever.... I stumbled on your neat chord play lesson snippets via YT feed and, like the last commentor, heard you refer to this one...Pink Floyd!!!... and now I’m gonna end up on a runaway mine car underneath a Middle East desert. Way to go David! ;-) Thanks for your work here. Great style and approach that I am really enjoying. Ratt, Dokken, SRV, Rhoads, Queensryche, Opeth (!!). Nice commentary and insights.
It’s funny I never liked Pink Floyd until I was around 18 or 19. I heard them all over the classic rock station here in Dallas/Fort Worth 92.5 kzps. They played a handful of great tunes and I quickly developed an immense liking to them. Now they’re easily one of my favorite bands. David Gilmour is a timeless guitarist. Love the videos as always. Please keep them up! I’m a lifelong supporter of Late Night Lessons. ✊🏻
I'm a very good guitarist. But there a guys I watch on here that I love there style. You are one of them. You can destroy anything but your self deprica style is charming as well. You rock!!
Speaking of the"Meddle" album, for Vol.2 of Chordplay/ P!nk Fløyd, I bet you would enjoy playing and analysing "Fearless" for all of us minions on here. Acoustic guitar would be awesome. Not much acoustic #'s, just a thought. Thanks for the great lessons!! 😀👍
I can't remember where or when, but David's admitted somewhere that Rick pretty much made the band what it was. Syd gets his due credit, and rightly so, but Rick brought the sophisticated music theory to Pink Floyd, evident even in early songs like Paintbox and See-Saw. I think Rick said he cribbed the Emadd9-A in Breathe from a Miles Davis song. Emadd9 is also prominent in Paintbox and Welcome to the Machine. Music professor Samuel Andreyev has a video analyzing See-Saw, in which he says something to the effect that you just don't hear these kinds of "harmonic excursions" with the Syd Barrett stuff.

You;re a great player shame you went so fast for crappy guitarists like me(bit told I'm a good writer) and maybe clean up your tone a wee bit .BUT great vid and what you can do with those chord,you sure know your stuff mate!
@@LateNightLessons Not YOUR tone; your guitar's tone. David Gilmour's style and note choices are clear and ringing in this case. I am just saying that your use of growling overdrive didn't match the subject.
The point is to talk about the chords and the different progressions and to visualize what’s going on with these classics songs. He doesn’t need to have all the exact tones dialed in to do that. There’s nothing “jarring” or “inappropriate” about this. I’ve never seen anybody on RUclips do videos quite like he does, it’s unique and fresh. I have nothing against his tone at all, he sounds great, but if you want to get into the nitty gritty tones and what not there are gear videos out there that will HOPEFULLY please you, but you might have something negative to say about those, too. Anyway, I love Late Night Lessons!
@@paulhopkins8148 You're missing the point of the lessons. They are about looking at the chords and the voicing of those chords as a springboard for your own development. The lessons are certainly not about how to achieve a specific tone. Look elsewhere for that.
Normally ive found your tone suiting the artists your exploring but i must say I thought the same this time around somewhat abrasive for the Floyd Not a complaint an observation , thanks for all your doing shine on You crazy diamond shine on
David's sound with his cranked Hiwatt is one of my favorite tones- Beautiful and haunting. Great video!

Dude I’m stealing that line about slash chords. Love your work dude. SO INSPIRATIONAL
Great lesson, great chords! Thank you. Never bothered learning those chords but I love the sound of them.
That Breathe chord progression also sounds like "Down by the river" by Neil Young. Just caught my ear.

Thank you
Here’s to starting lesson #1. So far I love everything I’ve seen. Your a patient teacher, much appreciation
@ 4:43
That's the same cord used in the Pink Floyd song dogs from the album animals
I could just hear it.
I wonder if I'm right?
Just came across your chord videos. Thank you for these, they definitely help to increase understanding.
cant wait for Meddle/Animals/Wall Great stuff!
Oh wow - you went all the way back!
: )
\m/ PINK FLOYD \m/
Patiently waiting for this too! Love these lessons.
Fantastic

Absolutely love all of your lessons. Keep up the great work! 👊😎🎸

Great lessons. Thank you so much!
Love chords!
The most ethereal, emotional and evocative four notes in popular music?
I think the chorus of Breathe has much more interesting chords.
The Minor first to major fourth is a fairly common progression Gilmour always uses.
Great lesson! Thanks!
I think a tremendous amount of David's chording was influenced by Rick Wright.
I can't remember where or when, but David's admitted somewhere that Rick pretty much made the band what it was. Syd gets his due credit, and rightly so, but Rick brought the sophisticated music theory to Pink Floyd, evident even in early songs like Paintbox and See-Saw.

Music professor Samuel Andreyev has a video analyzing See-Saw, in which he says something to the effect that you just don't hear these kinds of "harmonic excursions" with the Syd Barrett stuff.
You’re right ! Wright was the key !
Love the channel great work!
Oye Como Va is actually by Tito Puente
Check out Budgie’s Zoom Club. Think he uses a kill switch effect with his pickup selector and neck pickup off. Budgie has great use of chords!
13:43 Those chords always make me think of the very last chord on Van Halen - Hang'em High
2:10 soycd
5:26 breathe
10:40 us n them
It wasn’t Judas Priest lol. You bring your wit to your amazing guitar knowledge
David with Floyd and then Carlos. Crowded House...Eddy ...WTF?😳
A lesson in tonal centers. 👍👈
whoa! Good one. Deep chord discussion. Awesome
How do you tuck your pick away and pick with your fingers? Need a tutorial!
@13:39 I'm hearing Jake E. Lee's intro on Killer of Giants
Thank you Father David, please do some Joe Pass, Holdsworth, & Metheny? :-) \m/
You're welcome and I'll see what I can do!
: )

Breathe is written in B minor. How can E be the I chord? I'm a bit confused. The iv chord is a minor in a minor key.
You;re a great player shame you went so fast for crappy guitarists like me(bit told I'm a good writer) and maybe clean up your tone a wee bit .BUT great vid and what you can do with those chord,you sure know your stuff mate!
It's the boing boing he he it's Les Claypool guy
Hey, now I want a red dorian flag to wave all day long!
Omfg! There is a Lemmy?
less words more play
I enjoy your dissection of the style, but the over-driven sound is jarring and inappropriate.
I'm sorry and a little shocked - you're the first person that has complained about my tone.

Does this guy just talk or does he ever play anything?
