Permanent Tag: Celebrities Rating: Good Hits: 245 Comments: 0 Pink Floyd: The Gunner's Dream Pink Floyd: The Gunner's Dream From The Final Cut, 1983. The song tells the story of a gunner in a bomber who has parachuted out of his plane and as he floats down to the ground, memories of his life come up to meet him but then he has dream. His dream is that the world will be at peace where there is no censorship so you can speak out loud about what you are thinking, there will be no military rations so everyone can eat, and men wont have to sleep in the trenches. Most importantly, the youth of the nation won't be sent of to die for their country. The lyrics are based on an IRA terrorist attack that took place in London in July 1982. Two bombings occurred that day, one in Hyde Park, one in Regents Park. In Hyde Park, as the Household Cavalry marched past a parked sedan, a bomb hidden inside exploded. Four Cavalrymen and seven horses died, 22 guards and civilians were injured. Less than two hours later, on a bandstand in Regents park, the band of the Royal Green Jackets was giving a concert when a bomb underneath the stage exploded. Six bandsmen died, 24 other bandsmen and four civilians were injured. User: spam_vigilante Jul 25, 2009 3:51 AM

Permanent Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 346 Comments: 1 Classic Albums: Dark Side of the Moon Classic Albums: Dark Side of the Moon RT: 49:09 The most phenomenal recording in rock & roll history is thoroughly examined in Pink Floyd: The Dark Side of the Moon. The Floyd's 1973 masterpiece remained on bestseller charts for nearly 14 years, and its enduring importance is honored here by all four members of Pink Floyd and key personnel (engineer Alan Parsons, mixing supervisor Chris Thomas, sleeve designer Storm Thorgerson, and others) who played essential roles in the landmark album's creation. Produced for the Classic Albums series that originally aired on VH-1, this thorough and thought-provoking study highlights a track-by-track dissection of the LP's master tapes (including the spoken-word passages that bookend the album), superbly interlaced with archival footage, early demo tapes, concert animations, and latter-day acoustic performances by David Gilmour, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright to demonstrate each track's contribution to the final mix--a sonic exploration that extends to the illuminating bonus features. Informative interviews abound (including Rolling Stone senior editor David Fricke), and much-deserved credit is given to saxophonist Dick Parry, solo vocalist Clare Torry, and former Capitol Records chairman Bhaskar Menon, who fostered the album's U.S. commercial success.

Headline Tag: Celebrities Rating: Good Hits: 1538 Comments: 1 Pink Floyd: Marooned Pink Floyd: Marooned An instrumental track on Pink Floyd's 1994 album, The Division Bell. An excerpt of the music is featured on Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd. The track was given a Grammy Award in the category of Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the Grammy Awards of 1994. The piece was written by David Gilmour and Rick Wright. The song has sounds that describe the setting as an island (such as seagulls and waves crashing on the shore).The song was composed while jamming aboard the Astoria in early 1993. The high-pitch guitar sounds on the track came from a Whammy pedal which makes the guitar sound an octave higher, also known as a pitch shifter. Alike to "Is There Anybody Out There?" this song also used the shrill siren-like sound effect of the song "Echoes". This song has only been played live 3 times. On the two dates in Oslo (one of which is featured on the Pulse DVD), Norway on the 1994 "The Division Bell" tour and at the "Strat Pack" charity concert, for the 50th anniversary of the Fender Stratocaster guitar, where Gilmour played his "#0001" Stratocaster. This song was featured on Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd but was severely shortened in length to 2:02. User: spam_vigilante Dec 31, 2008 12:23 PM
