I don't think the interviewer was particularly snobbish at the beginning. The interviewer is a famous classical music theorist. He could easily have said Pink Floyd is unsophisticated, but he doesn't. He says it is too loud for him. Think about what that means. This is a man whose whole career is built on the idea that he understands music. And he just goes ahead and implies he can't understand Pink Floyd because it's loud. That's incredibly humble.

What I love about Pink Floyd the most is that despite Barrett not being part of Floyd when they really hit it off, he remained a part of Floyd as their unseen 5th member despite not having anything to do with the band. With Syd, he gave Floyd artistry behind music, not just the music itself being art, but having the concept of presenting art with music; even before music videos. I think it says alot about how much Floyd really honored Syd along with their personal friendships, by always having 'him' around by taking his concepts and using them to create some of the best albums and live show performances the world has ever seen.

The incident had actually already happened before this TV appearance. Sometimes he functioned, sometimes he didn't. He wasn't THAT gone by this time but many people, including pink floyd, state that he'd lost the sparkle in his eyes, traded with empty eyes. But his travel down the rabbit hole continued on into early 70's. I can't really think of even one person I'd think deserved the mental fight he probably went through.. Acid and psychedelic's are one hell of a drug, and it doesn't help when people you're constantly surrounded by drug you down every moment they can get to see what their Star/Hero is capable off.

They tried to make it work with him. It was all very sad. On the way to their next concert, they simply just didn't pick him up. Simply is an understatement I'm sure, don't think they had the heart to say it to him. He was soo gone it probably didn't matter, may have been a relief as the last show he performed his back was to the crowd & he played one chord over & over.

It is good to see and hear Syd ... I grew up hearing of the legend, the tragic fall, Pink Floyd will forever be a definition of music for me. My older brother attended allmost all of their concerts, he confirmed a visual experience was also powerful.
@achannel18185 жыл бұрын
I like that he challenged them and their music. It allows the artists to explain the philosophy behind the music and allow people to look at it in a different way.

OMG, How amazing wouldn't that have been!! Rotten would've skinned him :-D Dude would've left in tears, hahaha! These two are so polite!! I've always heard that Syd had this temper and that he could blew up without warning. He didn't have control and were kinda not scary but unstable. Weird thing he didn't go off on this guy then!
@berniehoe99606 жыл бұрын
Carmelita Olsen syd got that temper after he went insane, this was him back when he was normal, around 1970 he started to spiral out of control and pretty much went insane. He took way too much acid and would do LSD every day which really fucked with his mind, unfortunately after 75, syd was never the same and died alone. Pretty sad that such a genius was lost like that.

How wonderful to see Syd - whose name was Roger, too, so you had two Rogers there! - talk intelligently about his art/music (and Roger as well), fully aware of who he was as an artist and who his audience was. This is the foundation of any artist’s work and career, and necessary for conceptually-based work which these gentlemen have been well known for. Unfortunately, drugs and, as someone else mentioned, the Music Business and its pressures took their toll him (and his bandmate as well although it took longer to affect him). Who knows what might have been, but we can revel in Syd’s time and we have his amazing music to inspire us always. ❤️

Younger people may not get who Hans Keller was. He was as crazy as Syd in a lot of ways. An oddball who could be very funny or irritating, but I think very intellectually honest in his oddball way. I don’t think he is being rude or arrogant here. He came from a completely different world than Floyd and he was genuinely interested in what he asked. Classical music can be loud and violent and wild too, but things like volume are on a different scale altogether and he is wondering why it is generally always blasting, or something like fffffff in his world. It is a good question as to why it’s so loud. It seems a weird question to ask us now because the volume of rock is built into our culture. But it wasn’t part of his culture and I’m sure he thinks they are losing a means of expression when they play loud all the time. This kind of expression is not really used in rock music, though it can be. Rock doesn’t require distinctions between mf and f because it is usually irrelevant to the expression of the music. Whoever put this together with Keller and Floyd knew that and a had a little fun, but, you know, why not?

“I don’t like this loud music, I grew up with soft string music so I prefer that.” “We didn’t grow up with soft string music, we like loud music.” “Not every person who grew up without soft string music started a loud rock band so your answer is unconvincing.” This line of reasoning is as unnecessarily aggressive as it is just plain stupid. Waters is just responding via the interviewers tastes and the interviewer acts as though he’s OWED an explanation.

Myrrisa It was 1967. They were manic and psychedelic and this was all before heavy metal and before the Floyd became known for being mellow. If you'd caught a show, not having heard this kind of music before, you would have thought they were loud, too. Put yourself in the mind of someone who grew up in the 30's and 40's.

My first thought, was big band music of the 20s and 30s, but I guess they didn't have that kind of music in England? I guess in those times music didn't travel world wide as quickly as it does today. Maybe England was still in their string cortet and opera kind of setting while America was very loud with big band dance music. It's also very strange the way they were talking. "At the moment," like they knew that they were going to evolve into something much greater from themselves in 1967.
