We use to surf when i was a teen in and around Santa Monica. At P.O.P. there was a club called The Aragon Ballroom then changed their name to The Cheetah club in their short existence they played host to Pink Floyd in the fall or winter of 1967.That was the first of many PF gigs enjoyed over the following decades culminating in 1994's The Division Bell at the Rose Bowl.While EVERY gig i've seen, i remember the smaller venues they played in as the best from 67- 75. although the Animals tour at the big A was....Thank you Stanly Owsley and The Brotherhood of Eternal Love Laguna Canyon....BTW the Cheetah club played host to QMS, CCR, Traffic, Iron Butterfly etc,etc....Aloha

Yes, 1967 at the Cheetah. Nov 4,5,6 I believe. I've bicycled past that exact spot 500 times 1996-2020. I also saw them at the Rose Bowl in 1994. When they opened with Astronomy Domine, I went berzerk.

There were quite a few of us pre-DS Pink Floyd fans in the States. In fact, Pink Floyd performed "Money" to a "full house" at the Hollywood Bowl in 1972 (in Quadraphonic) several months before the release of Dark Side of the Moon. The Bowl was a fantastic venue for Pink Floyd. One of the best concerts I've had the privilege of attending. Los Angeles in the late 60s and early 70s had some remarkably open-minded "progressive" radio stations. There were a few radio stations that played their early stuff regularly. But the records weren't easy to find. We had to look in the "import" section, but LA had some great record stores as well.

One of if not the best video I have seen of a rendition of 'Interstellar', the visuals were brilliant, sound quality even better. This is PF pre Dark side of the moon and as they were when I used to go see them in concert late sixties early seventies. Of course the live version bears hardly any resemblance to the recorded version on their first album. The sound engineer Norman Smith was given the job of cutting down and arranging a 30 minute live version to a size that would fit neatly on a vinyl record containing all the other tracks. He was heard to say at the start, 'What am I supposed to do with this?' Well he did a very good job. Go Listen.

[@jancornelissen7761]

Being a fan of Pink Floyd as well as Deep Purple, it is a pleasant surprise to hear Pink Floyd playing some music of Deep Purple. From 7'20" till 9'20" we have the galloping rhythm of "Mandrake Root". As most people are not familiar with the first LP of Deep Purple, I refer to Made In Japan, where this theme was incorporated in "Space Trucking". The galloping rhythm was made popular in Europe by the TV-series "Bonanza", which I suppose was also seen by Roger Waters and John Lord.

[@spiritof6663]

Actually, Deep Purple took that galloping rhythm used on "Mandrake Root/Space Truckin'" from The Nice's 1967 cover of Dave Brubeck's "Rondo". It was also used in Love Sculpture's cover of "Sabre Dance" a year later. DP started inserting the rhythmic motif in performances of "Mandrake" around 1970.
