En Yield Bar (Plaza San Martín – Lima Perú)…

Syd Barrett’s singular vision has influenced countless musicians across the globe. His slightly cracked songwriting, in both in his solo work and his short-lived time as the driving force behind Pink Floyd, gave birth to an entire generation of progressive and cutting edge artists. That generation influenced the next, which in turn influenced the next, and so on. Now, on this album, over four decade’s worth of some of the biggest names in avant-garde metal and rock have come together to pay tribute to this madcap genius. Featuring some of the most influential players in the history of heavy music (including Justin Broadrick, Jarboe and Pentagram, as well as members of Voivod), Like Black Holes in the Sky: The Tribute to Syd Barrett is a hard-rocking, psychedelic trip through the mind of a musician the likes of which will never be heard again….

Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb recorded live. This has got to be one of the greatest guitar solo’s of all time, played by the incredible David Gilmour. Pink Floyd were an English rock band that achieved international success with their progressive and psychedelic rock music marked by the use of philosophical lyrics, sonic experimentation, and elaborate live shows. One of the most commercially successful and influential rock groups in the history of popular music, they have sold over 200 million albums worldwide, including 74.5 million certified units in the United States. In 1996 they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The band originally consisted of university students Roger Waters, Nick Mason, Richard Wright, and Syd Barrett. Founded in 1965, they gained popularity performing in London’s underground music scene during the late 1960s. Under Barrett’s creative leadership they released two charting singles, “Arnold Layne” and “See Emily Play”, and a successful début album, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967). Guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour joined as a fifth member in December 1967, several months prior to Barrett’s April 1968 departure due to deteriorating mental health. With the loss of Syd, the band moved from psychedelic pop to a more progressive sound, with many tracks written collaboratively while on tour. With this line-up they achieved critical and commercial success with the concept albums The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here ……

Seeing as Pink Floyd feature an awful fricking lot on my channel, I thought I should bite the bullet and do a little primer on their album releases. I ramble on in my usual inimitable style before collapsing in a heap at the end (metaphorically speaking)….
