And by logical deduction, my dear Dr Watson, we arrive at the conclusion that Pottel has a strong affinity for, no, is obsessed with Pink Floyd.

yep. they rule. and i am a gilmour man rather then a wates man. still got a few hundred GB of the man though...

Who is that Roger you're talking about ?

it is really perfect, the best possible and coolest Strat sound there is

In fact, the solo is played on a Les paul Goldtop with P90 Pickups

for a long Time I've thought that this solo was played on strat with the neck PU, but it's indeed a Les Paul.
live 80, David played it sometimes, and sometimes on the black strat

Note that P90 PU are between single coils PU (like on most fender guitars) and humbuckers (like on most Gibson guitars), so it's sort of "big" single coils PU. That's why it doesn't sound very much "iconic" Les Paul

LOL!


I knew when I wrote it that I maybe should check it first.  But for me, this is so much the perfect STRAT sound that I thought, naah, never another guitar... But who am I, I have no idea about guitars, better ask all our other gear heads around...

Pottel, you are obviously totally obsessed with DG, so why isn't he God #1?

10 and everthig after

Sorry pottel, but when speaking of Echoes, I don't get it with this part, 10min. and after that
- 2,5 mins of "sounds", what in the world??

Yeah MK could have done that just to make Telegraph Road not 14:15 but 18min long!
Don't get it... Sounds to me as if they had to make an "art rock song", which of course cannot be short, so they recorded 2,5 mins of sounds just to be on the safe side. The solos and other parts are good, but if I wanna listen to "sounds" I can switch on a discovery channel whale documentary...
I like Shine on much much better, now that is a song!

Pottel, your bug looks bigger. What happened?
