Guitars from old New York

[JF]

Dude, look forthe multitrack bbc radio thing about echoes and shine on and stuff on YouTube, it is friggin awesome!

Yes it's unbelievable !

Thanks Pottel for the links you posted on Guy's forum

I've listened to it and woooooow ! Tons of infos I wasn't aware of (e.g. backward sounds on Shine on, or David's lead vocals on same song, it's strange because it's always reported that Roger sings the lead on this one, but here you can clearly hear that's David)

I mailed to Bjorn (Webmaster of gilmourish) and even him didn't know all infos given in this radio show !


The only thing connected to MK in the same way that came to mind is the mixer for the STP song that was availbale on MKnews some years ago. You could hear separate tracks : guitar / keyboard-guitar / voice etc....

[Pottel]

the whole radio show gave me the shivers.
brilliant radio making indeed.

[Justme]

So much brilliant music to discover and so little time!

Can you believe it, so far I do only know Pink Floyd Echoes and Mr. Gilmour's "On An Island". What's the best way/album to dig deeper into Pink Floyd?

[Fletch]

Dark Side, Wish you Were Here & The Wall.

All must have, masterpieces.

[Justme]

Okay, thanks for the tip. I'm gonna have a look at those.

I would add Animals and Meddle, and then you got the full 70 era 

ok, Atom heart mother is 70, but musically it is more in the late 60 era

[Justme]

Ah good - thank you, too.

[vgonis]

May I include the wonderful Piper at the gates of dawn and The division bell?

May I include the wonderful Piper at the gates of dawn and The division bell?

of course we could include all albums  

but I guess that Justme wanted to know only where to start

So, Fletch's answer is indeed the best : these albums are the 3 most wellknown, and most emblematic of Floyd's music

[Justme]

Ah, I see: there are a lot. Thanks guys!

[Pottel]

do obscured by clouds too.
and people, pls let us not forget the brilliant Animals!

[Justme]

Oh, there's a lot to do. And JJ Cale is also on my list 

[vgonis]

J.J. Cale's 10 first albums are immaculate. And the rest are fabulous. So you can chose between them.  My personal favourites are Naturally, Troubadour, Grasshopper, and most of all 8. But the rest are equally good. Okie and really are almost low-fi blues, 5 and shades explore new idioms and have some of his best songs, Trave log... You get the picture. It is trial and win!

I absolutely love JJ Cale, I can really here how he influenced MK, much more so than Dylan. I've never understood why people alwys compare MK and BD they are poles apart in just about everyway they approach music. 

[Fletch]

I have Naturally and Okie by JJ. Both very relaxed and cool albums, I'm sure most MK listeners would enjoy.
