Another of the songs I heard them play live in 1972. This was Pink Floyd at their most experimental and is how I came to them musically. I first listened to them in '69 and have never stopped listening to them. They have fed my soul ever since.
I saw the same tour. They had a quadraphonic sound system that really set off the music.
When this first came out a mother wrote to Roger and said her son had drawn comfort from the song as he lay in the hospital dying from leukemia. She told him he would play it over and over again and it reassured him that there was nothing to fear.
Well, 'To Each His Own' I'd say. I for one do like this song a lot, and it makes it easily in the top 5 of my favorite Floyd songs. I do listen to Set the controls quite often, but I prefer listening to - and watching - the Pompeji recording. Watching - and hearing - Nick Mason working the drums is exactly what I need on days when it seems like the walls are closing in. This btw applies to the entire Pompeii recording. I guess I'll start watching again right now :-)
Ricks keys are so genious and so keeping you on a journey, the fusion of all Floyd is so avantgarde, transforming, breathtaking and soul touching ❤
Back in my youth (my partying days) this album got a lot of play during our "sessions". Fun stuff! Been a few years since I've actually heard it at this point in my life.
Great song. Older brother used to play it for me when it came out.
I have it on the original "Saucerful of Secrets" lp from 1968 and it came out before Ummagumma.
The "saucer " refers to the physical album itself...a "platter"
From my lsd, etc experiences decades ago, I assure you there are many secrets contained within, both aurally and visually on the album cover.
Reformed and retired PharmD 😊
Edit: forgot this was live version.
"Careful With That Axe, Eugene " live is the best crescendo song
One of the greatest pieces of Art ever created, also a spiritual journey to your higher self❤
This piece, along with Careful With That Axe Eugene, Saucerful Of Secrets, Interstellar Overdrive, Astronomy Domine, etc...were Floyd at their psychedelic peak!! It's not for everyone - so don't feel bad. Personally, I love this era - it was melodic, frenetic (at times), groovy, trippy (especially with 'substances') & a journey. Seen this live (by Brit Floyd) and you get a much deeper appreciation for this track!
Try this one again - headphones on, dark room, glass of wine (or beverage, substance of your choice) and you might have a better 'trip'!
Acid trip for sure
Man, I wore out the grooves on those two Ummagumma disks back in the day (Atom Heart Mother too). I much prefer this era to the later post Meddle stuff.
Also, I love a reviewer who provides an honest take. Dominika's reactions are of value to me because I know she's not trying to stroke her audience.
One of my favorites from Pink Floyd. Underrated in their catalog of songs.
Also, the lyrics are from a Chinese poet. (If I remember correctly.)
Not everybody's cup of tea Like many bands of this era they had progressed from basic blues, rock and jazz into experimental Psychedelic music. I really value your honest opinion I do love this track myself I had this album in my youth 67 now and still love it. it was a time of experimentation and innovation in music and latter led to progressive, heavy metal and hard rock and all of the genre's we have today.
I love Set the Controls but I admit I enjoy the slightly later versions of it. Pompeii version, for example.
Lot's of crazy songs on this release love the LP
The Music comes in small pieces often to start with; be it one person or multiple people jamming and each little piece may make up the whole, or it starts with an instrument and the others fill in their part, until a whole song takes shape, like a jigsaw puzzle, one piece at a time, or from a melody, or a lyric, all experimentation, one at a time one instrument at a time, until each is informing the whole and everyone knows their bit, other sounds put in once the music is settled on.
At the end for many writers or bands the lyric comes last of all, through themes or a narrative line by line. :O) just like anything creative, there's a seed of an idea through experimentation which grows outwards, sometimes you go back if you exhaust one rabbit hole of idea and come back to others and branch from there. That's how it works. process driven or narrative driven or instrument driven.
hope that helps breakdown these things!
The live version at Pompeii is much better. Roger's voice is much louder and effective, with the song's haunting lyrics clearly enunciated. Also, watching Nick's fantastic drum work makes it all the more mesmerizing, not to mention Richard's ethereal keys playing and David's eerie glissandos on guitar.
How beautiful is the keyboard line, it sound like middle Est progression.... Rick was very creative then.....!
I had a hard time getting into the earlier Floyd albums. For me the first album that I connected to was Meddle, which was just before the Dark Side of the Moon album. To me, that album is the transition from older Floyd to the Floyd I came to know in the 70's. I highly recommend the song Echoes. It's a longer song with a few minutes of weird, quiet space in the middle. I think it deals with the passing of time over millions of years. Very cleverly done. The guitar and keyboard play off each other. The guitar solos are explosive. It takes you on a journey. It's a masterpiece.
Love this song.
Ummagumma is my third favourite floyd album. Behind Animals and dsotm.
That is a great song from the not yet commercialized phase. I very like this phase of Pink Floyd and this is the real for me. Does something like this exist today? I don't think so, today everything is mainstream and commercialized.
LIve in Pompeii version good too
when i was young, i was told this tune was a pipe dream. smoke get lit. well now i am old. still a dream. sum things do not change. fun review thanks.
It is quite interesting to see a man and a woman reacting to this. He, by far, likes it more than she does and I believe it is because of the tribal drum beat/rhythm. Guys tend to love that, women not as much.
The song appeared on the 2nd studio album A Sauceful Of Secret and comes from Roger Waters, new, unusual, interesting sound, a live standard (also in the Pompeii concert). In addition to the brilliant title track 11:57, composed by all 4, including David Gilmour for the first time.
P.S. you hear “Ramsch"stein; I understand every word (my native language) and understand what Lindemann is talking about; certainly not about music, but about a total "mass drug" about .... , and that from Germany???
Do you get out of the creative, innovative sound of ELP and PF around 1970? There has never been such a challenging creative phase for young artists in the music business. Well, to each his own taste!!!
l'apogée du rock pschédélique... J'apprecie Dominica quand elle dit qu'elle n'aime pas, c'est presque "normal", c est si loin de ce que PF a fait plus tard, surtout une fois que R Wright a moins participé à la création. Les morceaux de PF de cette époque en concert duraient parfois plus de 30 mn. Tout ce double album "ummagumma" est un peu chef d'oeuvre tres tres tres loin des chansons et musiques esthétiques ou commerciales de ce qui se faisait à l'époque
❤️❤️❤️
The live versions of this are better than the studio version. If you ever have time, you might try to hear Nick Mason' Saucerful of Secrets, who toured recently, do this song within the last few years.
They already reacted to live version with Nick Mason band
There's some great live Roger Waters performances of this around, especially from the In the Flesh tour, that I think are even better than this album version.
Atom Heart Mother was the last Floyd album I bought but Ummagumma is my favourite
Should have done this song at Pompeii along with another their surprise vocals by " Mademoiselle Nobs". people in the late 60's and 70's would listen to this after smoking a fatty with maybe a strobe candle burning.
you should have done the live version on Pompei, so much better
Only in terms of visials, but imho this version is so much more colourful,
ANDRE… FOR SURE SPACESHIP TAKING OFF, THEN IN OUTER-SPACE…
HEARD THIS WHEN IT WAS RELEASED, I WAS FIFTEENTH….. FIRST ALBUM THAT I BOUGHT
IF YOU THINK ABOUT BACK THEN, IT WAS ALL CUTTING EDGE MUSIC, EVEN THE INSTRUMENTS
WERE BASIC N BEING FINE TUNED. THE ONLY OTHER BAND BACK THEN, THAT FAR OUT WAS …
HAWKWIND … GREAT REACTIONS…!! ROCK ON 👊🖖
Since you are Ummagauma album do Severs small fury animals grooving in a cave with a Pict look up lyrics at the end and see how experiential Roger was. never cared to much this song fun listen once in a while
Organized chaos.
Hope the fanboys don't leap up and down on this one.
I love Dominika's reaction to this one which is nothing short of honest and sincere. J'adore Pink Floyd - but even I have a few from their catalogue which I don't connect with
Floyd is before Dark Side and after it. I remember "Dark Side of the Moon" coming out. That really increased their audience. However, I prefer the Floyd before Dark Side. This song is like the beginning of an acid trip going badly, a journey into madness before sanity returns--if it does.
Hey Dominika it helps to smoke a fatty before listening to this😅😊
You resist too much 😅!!
LOL... Dominica is really not into psychedelic music, check the Santabna at Woodstock reaction. Nothing wrong with it... it is intended to cause a reaction, not always a true musical or melodical showcase, experimentation is at the heart of it.
This genre can be appreciated only in the time context in which is was created. Beside the fact that often there were another elements, beyond musical instruments present 😀
It's an acquired taste unless you grew with it, like me (a happy old hippie).
Un vago ritorno al passato psichedelico ma con una modernità ed una classe che li contraddistinguera' da lì in poi per sempre.
Too many prog rock bands ❤ when my fav one...? King Crimson ❤
Fasten your seat belts 😮😅😊
So the Floyd took you away from yourselves, what did you see when looked back....Peace.
When you're listening to Pink Floyd you know it's Pink Floyd because all of their songs have a similar sound. But Led Zeppelin their songs are much more diverse.
Rubbish
How much does "See Emily Play" and "Comfortably Numb" have in common? You need to listen to more Floyd.
pink floyd is way more diverse and better than Zeppelin 😁
Incorrect.
@@robovike No, my "correct" cancels your "incorrect".
you dont like cause you dont understand
"We are carefully reviewing each request coming our way" Does this mean you listen to the song first?
Wished you had listened to a live version by Roger Waters on the "In the Flesh" tour. The entire concert is brilliant but hard to find. I will upload the concert on a file sharing platform you can download if you can't find it. 1.22 gigs though. Roger, Snowy White and Doyle Bramhall on guitars, Jon Carin on keyboards, slide guitar, acoustic and vocals, Andy Wallace on keyboards, Katie Kissoon, PP Arnold and Susannah Melvon backing vocals, tambourines, Graham Broad on drums, Andy Fairweather Low, bass guitar and guitars, Norbert Stachell on Sax. Been a Floyd fan all my life, saw The Wall in Atlanta. This is the best concert I have ever SEEN. Seconds out by Genesis is the best I have ever HEARD. You should check out "Fly on a Windshield/Broadway Melody of 1974" from "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway"
RW is so full of h a te.
Turned his dumb a×× off several yrs ago.
Still have the promo Hitchhiker lp...we were so excited when it came out...a dud.
