Pink Floyd Discography

[The Hitman]

I know CarterS has been looking forward to this one, but unfortunately he can't listen. The webstream isn't up on the site.

Anyway, 8-10pm EST tonight on SYN 90.7 FM we'll be taking a look at the 40 year history of Pink Floyd. From their very beginnings with Syd Barrett at the helm through to 1994's The Division Bell.


If you're in Melbourne, you can tune in normally, and if you aren't in Melbourne or cannot listen in, just let me know and I'll organise to get a copy of the show to you either in hard copy or via the net.

 

[CarterS]

I want you to play the Atom Heart Mother Suite on air, in its entirety.

 

[The Hitman]

Stiff sh*t. We played If.

 

[CarterS]

House Of The Rising Sun (Live)

Are you sure it was Pink Floyd?

 

[CarterS]

No chance, they have never ever covered House of the rising sun. Great list btw, good to see you didn't stick to the old Breathe, Comfortably Numb, Wish You Were Here list (though they are in there).

You put the full Echoes in there?

I'm proud

was flicking through the official live 8 book. a few floyd pics of the band in arms, quotes from members and a bit of a write up on the bands performance which was one of my highlights, if not the musical and nostalgic highlight of the night, other than the Macca show

 

[CarterS]

Nah it was not only the highlight of Live 8, but the best moment i can remember in the past 15 years of music. Of course i am so biased its not really worth any weight.

 

[The Hitman]

We ran out of time and finished with High Hopes anyway, but you sure they never cover House... live? It bloody well sounds like them.

It's actually a band called Frigid Pink. A very psychedelic cover that does sound like Pink Floyd.

When I downloaded it a couple of years ago I was also convinced it was them. My Dad dismissed it pretty quickly – I guess listening to Pink Floyd for the best part of 30 years makes you a bit of an expert.

 

[CarterS]

Pink Floyd have never once done a cover either live or recorded.

 

[The Hitman]

Hah. Lucky we didn't play it then. Never knew that fact, CarterS. It's a shame, I'd love to have heard a wall of Gilmour guitar to many a song done by others.
