I like Syd's era Pink Floyd the most, I made my first songs influenced by his style. And even now , after more than 40 years, and since I first heard Syd, he still sounds so fresh and alive in these recordings!
So your songs must be completely formless and void of any knowledge of music except sliding up the neck or piano sounds higher and sliding down sounds lower.
@@kbmemphistennis127 YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT SYD !!! HE HAS INFLUENCED MANY GUITARISTS !! WHY COMMENT IF YOU KNOW NOTHING OF AND DON,T LIKE SYD ? GO BACK TP YOU JUSTIN BEIBER COLLECT !!!
@@DonJLeBlanc Well said!
@@LudgerBW well said? I only hear a hurt fanatic which got even prooven by using caps-lock; but okay... you are all religious fools and arnt aware off; quite funny though
This is a treasure. To hear these performed live and to get an idea of what Syd was like playing live. That first jam was awesome.
For once you can actually hear his vocal on the Stockholm tracks.
I was 17 in 1974 when I first discovered Syd's psychedelia and still play and love it 50 years later. I didn't like Piper on the first hearing but loved it on the third and still do.Wish RUclips had been around then but anyway at least I now have the opportunity to appreciate these gems. What a treat and thanks for posting! In those days it was all bloody disco.....
A.I. Could be our savior to remix the Syd era live recordings. On most of them the vocals are inaudible
Bloody marvellous Syd.
Thanks.
First few minutes shades of Hendrix.
Midperiod Radiohead, who came later.
Pete Doherty too.
You can hear Syd Barrett playing great lead guitar here I think it was overplayed about Syd not playing you can hear him singing too his guitar sound is unique
Yes the September gig demonstrates that any claim that he had lost it after July is just not accurate. It's not to say that these claims of only playing one note or not playing at all didn't happen, but where are the recordings of that? The recordings that I had heard from the latter half of 1967 demonstrate skilled and creative playing.
If Bill Graham's vault has any 1967 us tour shows in it I guarantee they'd have some Mandrax'd out playing on them.
It's pretty easy to suss out that once the band got established, Roger Waters hijacked it for himself. A few months of so-called "decline" is absolutely not a long enough period of time to be throwing out the guy who started the band! Too many people who have worked with Waters claim he exhibits strong narcissistic, sociopathic/anti social behavioral traits. I mean, they wo
The jam in G is magnificent. Matilda Mother is the best version I ever heard--a jam that you NEVER imagine on the studio version. Set the Controls is unexpected, though it does sound like young Roger (previously he'd only had 'take up thy stethoscope'). Nick's insistent drums and Syd's guitar give it a different sound from the ethereal studio version. See Emily Play, Arnold Layne, Scream thy last Scream, Interstellar Overdrive. What a great concert.
I thought you were saying Matilda mother was in G. (The jam) in G I think you're referring too starts with boom chi chi boom chi chi?? It's definitely in (G) I almost think G min. But it's (G chord) most likely. Rick wright probably added some minor.
Roger also wrote "Walk with me Sydney" you can find on The Cambridge Tapes release.
THANK YOU! I AM HAPPY LISTENING TO THIS! I LOVE SYD BARRET!
7:14 "Well that's something you're never gonna hear again." Classic Waters being a smart ass.
Sound quality here is better than what I'm used to. 👍
I used the best available versions of eacu show so it does work better than it knight have been previously
Oh,
The track "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" had been around before Gilmour joined the band.
Compared to David G ...... Syd Barrett was more creative and when he played he created and participated in the whole band,
Talk about rare relics. Thanks for posting!
:)
that last pic of them is extraordinary even with Rick getting clipped
I think Copenhagen (which I have as Sept 13, 1967) is the only decent sounding Syd era live recording (other than BBC) where you can at least somewhat hear the vocals. My favorite thing here is 00:46:30 One In A Million. Such a cool unreleased song.
Yeah it could have made piper with a bit of sprucing up. I can’t recall if it was pre or post that time. I think it’s Rog singing but difficult to really hear. A lost gem
stockholm 1967 is a great concert to.
@@philgez 'One In A Million' is AFTER Piper and was pilfered for 'Corporal Clegg'
What a great find! Majestic & unique guitar playing by Syd, and nice recording sound for a bootleg. Thanx for posting it❣
Thanks for listening :)
Thanks for sharing this gem
Holy shit there's some goos stuff here. Again, thank you!
This is great! Thanks a lot :)
Que buena calidad de audio. Muchas gracia por subirlo.
Syd’s songwriting is very impressive in terms of chord structure. I’d love to see a musicologist dissect his writing because I can’t work out the key in a lot of his songs, what mode he is writing in and which modes he is borrowing chords from. That’s why the sound is so unique. Waters was much more conventional as a writer, much easier to understand as he used basically the Major Pentatonic for almost all of his music. But Syd was far more unique, and kind of a genius.
I think that he jumped around chord/note wise sometimes in the same way Claude Debussy did. Its random until its captured on tape and/or whatever medium and becomes a "song" or a "composition", etc....
Some of syds playing is unorthodox for the 60s . Astronomy domini from the start open E minor riff goes flat 5. Syds quietly chugging low (E string) When the vocals sing (A fight between the blue you once knew. (E flat!) But the songs are not hard. Matilda mother changes in it. Are you tuned standard? Pink Floyd might not be perfect standard tuning, but you can adjust. Some days I can't hear, find the chords to a song. I hate when that happens, bothers me, so I go back to hours later , or the next day. If I can't find it myself. I can find guitar cover on RUclips.
Personally, I think Syd Barrett kind of "invented" some chords, in a casual way maybe, during loose improvisations playing by himself alone, and then he used them with the band as well as in the recording studio as a solo artist after he found himself out of his own band, left alone without a word. I've always loved Syd's unique way of playing guitar & writing harmonies, melodies and lyrics. His music has pure artistic/"futuristic" qualities even today in 2023, and that's for sure I think.
VIVA SYD BARRETT❣
VIVA "No Man's Land"❣ "No Good Trying"❣ "Opel"❣ "Jugband Blues"❣ and... all the astonishing tracks he wrote and played❣
CIAO 👍🏻😺✌🏿
@@dannyhood8857 it's a similar thing for me: I usually get the harmony and the melody notes of a track by its original recording, listening very carefully while I'm trying to play to it ("with" it), repeating the single chords sequences one by one, eventually insisting on the ones I don't catch easily at first; maybe that's becouse I learned to play as a self-taught adolescent playing to vynil records (in the 80s), it's slower then reading the chords on the web but certainly you train your musical hear (that's a good thing, and it's much more amusing!), and when your ear is good you really don't need any electronic tuner to tune correctly your guitar: you need just one right conventional note to be sure that the whole band's gonna be in tune.
As for the great Syd, it's clear for me that he learned a lot by listening to the blues musicians he liked; that B-flat note in the E chord, in the instrumental intro of "Astronomy Domine", says it all: it's deeply blues, and also intentionally "bad" (in the most positive meaning: when bad means "cool"), a subtle way of evoking some sinister subtext in the track's mood, that is a "very Barrett" thing I think. It's that unique subtle deep blues mood that I find in many Barrett's tracks, with and without the other Floyds: it's fantastic and futurable the Syd's blues, so it's just logic that he and Hendrix familiarized in 1968 when the astonishing Pink Floyd toured with the mighty Jimi Hendrix Experience..!
VIVA SYD BARRETT❣
VIVA JIMI HENDRIX❣
👍🏻 😸 👍🏿
CIAO! 🎸🔭💥🎶
He used a lot of dissonance
pretty good, thanks
Thanks
No problem
Nice work!
Incredible
It's very sad that we have only 10 live recordings / footage from Syd era.
We got :
1 - Some footage of "Interstellar Overdrive" & "Matilda Mother" played live at the UFO in early '67
2 - BBC show "The Look at The Week" apparence from May 1967 when they played "Pow R Toc H" and "Astronomy Domine" + the famous "terribly loud ?" interview with Syd & Roger.
3 - "See Emily Play" TOTP performance from July 1967
4 - The live performance at Stockholm the 10th September 1967 which was released in 2016 on the "Early Years 1967-1972" box set.
5 - The live performance at Copenhagen the 13th September 1967 when the only recording of the unreleased song "One In A Million" was played
6 - A BBC session from the 25th September 1967 with a incomplete recording of "Reaction In G"
7 - The live performance at Rotterdam the 13th November 1967
8 - "Jugband Blues" promotionnal video from early December '67
9 - BBC show "Tomorrow's World" 12th December 1967 , they played any of their released songs, just "Green Onions" and a untitled improvisation
10 - BBC session from the 20th December 1967, last live recording with Syd, only live recordings of "Jugband Blues" and "Vegetable Man"
Thank you!! If willing, and without giving up your secrets ;) how did you come across these recordings? I used to dabble in a couple of old (e.g. Architectural / Screaming Abdabs) vinyl, but I've noticed of late how so much more stuff is coming out (Pink Floyd being known for regretting not recording much, much more off their work back then), and I'm hearing lots of great stuff I haven't heard. Thanks again for sharing this!
Official releases - early years for Stockholm 1967
And then yeeshkul back when it existed for the other 67 live shows
@@MLBFCollection again, thank you!!
I think Syd and Rogers were the creative force, but David added the nice respectable British element to it. David probably pushed it ahead. This recording is better than most so thanx.
I have no idea what the, "...respectable British element" is.
Syd was awesome, DG picked it up and kept the band going. Obviously it ended up being a different direction, highly influenced by Roger, but who says Syd wouldn't have also changed directions?
Rick was a major creative force in the early days too
Take a look at composers of Piper's songs. Syd was creative genius. Listen to songs composed by Waters before Barrett. And in many interviews the all admited that Syd gave them courage and motivation to experiment and stop playing just r'n'b songs for masses.
@@Marcin-lp4qi✅💯 Completely agree! I also love Rick's writing contributions from Saucerful of Secrets & the 1968 singles! 😊
Who was singing Set The Controls? Was that Syd? It didn’t sound like Roger (didn’t sound like Syd either).
Thanks for this! I’ve been paying attention for over 40 years, and I’m pleased to still witness surprises emerge.
Just a tired Roger
Still a very interesting compilation
100% Roger with mic muting.
This is fantastic. I thought I had all available recordings of live original Floyd. Barrett is playing great here, is this before or after their aborted American tour?
This is a compilation of several live recordings:)
Mostly before the American tour but all tracks from Rotterdam are after the American tour
And it is said that Syd was basically strumming one or two chords and blankly staring at the audience at this time! Yeah right!
Yeah right
Yeah well I believe rick Wright not you for starters. Syd actually did break down and strumm one chord it happened. This is a totally different gig so your point is what?? Everyone one who bothers to know the truth knows Syd was an amazing song writer and a performer and that he totally lost it so I do not understand what you are trying to enlighten anyone about???
I totally believe that Syd had bad days live
But I think his decline has been greatly overstated throughout the years
October 1967, November 1967, December 1967 he sounds perfectly fine on all live audio looks perfectly fine on all video
He wasn't unable to function live by then
@@Tarsus790 Maybe MLBF is very new to the whole Syd Barrett story side of Pink Floyd?
@@thenazarite2444 No I've known it for many years
I just don't entirely buy the ending of the story
I'm 100% sure Syd suffered greatly mentally, but I believe the stories of 1967 and 1968 are exaggerated
Set the controls for the noctur noctur.
❤❤❤❤
why is it so impossible to find a live pink floyd video where you can actually hear syd barrett's voice ?
Syd had a soft singing voice
This ^ and the unfortunate location of the recorders from the 3 available audience tapes
The BBC live performances from September and December 1967 are the best options
Roger Waters spitefully sabotaged them all like he spitefully made sure Scream thy & Vegetable Man were stopped from release?
I wonder if they could isolate and boost Syd's voice with that Beatle's thingymebobby?
Most likely, poor mixing from the original sound man. Live rock performances tended to be poorly mixed in the 1960s. The technology was primitive and frankly, nobody cared.
Read the story of the Beatles, what happened on Abbey Road that year, that summer of love.
Absolutely all the office workers and producers on Abbey Road were drunk and on drugs.
The crowd of visiting petitioners is also drunk and under the influence of drugs.
These people were high and saying all sorts of stupid things about Barrett.
It was beneficial for someone
When you get fired, you feel depressed. When I was fired from my job, I was depressed
for 2 years, I just lay there, slept and couldn’t do anything. Loneliness
I fully agree
Someone benefited from wallowing in Barrett's mud, so Nick Mason wrote that Barrett farted a lot and stank
And none of them farted again?
Everyone was also drunk, everyone was also taking drugs, weed, and everyone was farting and in a fog.
Imagine if Syd didn't lose his mind or revived it. Gilmour & Syd would be blasting people's minds with their guitar playing. I believe it would be a perfect combo of the rhythm in Syd & lead by Gilmour. Also, the contrast in singing. Syd's last written song was "Jugband Blues," playing with Gilmour. The mystique is still alive very much today. It was just way too much acid hits for a fragile & analytical soul.
That's why even if they are as bad as people say I'd kill to hear any of the alleged recordings that are said to exist from those 2 weeks in January 1968 where they played live as a 5 piece
Syd made two solo albums after Floyd. "Jugband Blues" was far from his last written song. And Gilmour is not on it. Jugband Blues was recorded in late '67, Gilmour didn't join till early '68.
The band also helped Syd produce his solo albums. Which in my opinion are brilliant
Syd was friends with Dave gillmore I think. The were both arrested in France together 64?
I don't think there was Gilmour while they recorded "Jugband Blues". Wonderful track anyway. For me "A Saucerful Of Secrets" is a fantastic album, and listening to it you don't think it's the work of a band in the crisis difficulties they really were living at the time. It's a great album I think.
That jam in the beginning is sick
Any idea of what Syd’s guitar rig was for this? That guitar tone was nuts!
Great collection, but wish they had included 'Stoned Alone'. Is that Syd on vocals on 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun' ?
Roger
In A Garden Of Eden... way before its time
I taped a Floyd song from the radio many years ago. It had a lively tempo,fairy tale-like lyrics, and a psychedelic solo that sounded like David Gilmore. It was about 5 minutes long and was,from the late 60s It could've been;"It would be so nice" or "Stay". Does anyone else have any other title suggestions based on my description?
Julia Dream?
How cool! What is "Stay"?
No but if you listen to a snippet of the video,PINK FLOYD odds and allsorts,1967-1977,at the 8 minute mark,you will hear an up-beat CHORD JAM of the OUTRO of the song. The tempo then slows down but the chord STRUCTURE is similar to that of the song. The only differences are:1. The organ melody sounds more renissance-like
2. There are some lyrics and the singer sounds like Roger
3. There's also a psychedelic middle 8,David Gilmore guitar solo. Good luck with this song's title. I hope someone can find it!🤔
No but in the video,PINK FLOYD odds and allsorts,1968-1977,you can find a fast and slow JAM of the song's CHORD STYLE at around the 8 minute MARK of the video. The pattern of chords is more EVIDENT to the song's OUTRO. The only differences are: 1. The organ melody is more RENISSANCE-LIKE
2. There are some lyrics sung by I believe Roger
3. There is a David Gilmore middle 8,trippy guitar solo
I hope this song,in its entirely,has a title.that can be found!🤔🤔🤔
I believe that Wright was weak and cowardly, Mason Nick was cunning.
And this only benefited Waters.
Constant quarrels, conflicts, Barrett rebelled, the photo shows that he had not smiled since the summer and posed away from Waters.
And there is irony in the song: if I am zero, I don’t exist, who writes the songs?
Syd était un très bon guitarist❤❤❤e, peut-être pas aussi bon que David,mais son trip était de chercher et créer des sons il réussissait,mais ne lui ne demandait pas le lendemain de rejouer le morceau,car le LSD te bouffe la mémoire Sa guitare à disque miroir.(une fender Esquire) Personnalisée a sa manière , c'est vraiment dommage que sa pathologie ( trouble de la personnalité )a évolué avec le LSD , d'après ce qui est raconté..?? c'était un très grand parolier et compositeur très poétique, il aura laissé une trace très importante au sein du groupe ,"le diamant fou "brille encore même si il n'est plus là, d'ailleurs il est toujours d'actualité,le premier des FLOYD... 46:15 💍
Some heavy psychedelic usage is going on At this show this show sick.I never heard of Floyd show like
Fucking killing it
Why did they turn Syds Mike off or down, no wonder it drove him nuts 😮
Nobody "turned it off." This was an audience recording made on a cheap hand-held tape recorder. The taper was clearly not close enough to the PA system to catch the vocals. Don't be dumb.
FUCK YA MAN!!!! KILLER OPENING JAM!!!
Is that Syd singing "set the controls for the heart of the sun"? It doesn't sound like Roger to me
It's a tired roger
It's Roger
You have in flac dude??
Thanks!!
Oh god
Somewhere but it'll be on an old computer
I'll have a look eventually you may need to remind me tho lol

Flying away. Before WW3.
Agreed!🧡✅💯 I'll go to Mars with you if there's room! 😊
Same old basslines from Waters, Syds playing is excellent, so much for the declaration Syd couldn't play, maybe he was staging occasional silent protests at Rogers demands for communism promotion?
Wouldn't surprise me

He promotes Socialism
They are vastly different lol

Maybe we hear something you don't ?
Because we are Q-PyschoDelic Bumblers & Scumblers!😅
Maybe because you are out of your mind and you don't see it or feel it or simply can't apreciate it that's why ask Roger or Rick or Nick or even David who was not yet in the band they all can tell you
@@martinsechet6297 agreed. i love Syd era PF. I remember a friend asking me what I was listening to in HS. When I said PF he asked if I'd listened to Syd era. At the time, I said yes but found it a little strange. Now, some 37 years later it's about the only PF I still can put on and listen to over and over.
