RE: Music Monday (feel free to add your own music)

Monday already! Man they come around quick.
So many times I've been close to posting this utter classic.
One of my favourite records of all time.............

Pink Floyd - Wish you were here.

Put on the headphones, lay back, close you're eyes and listen to this amazing track.....
Never, ever fails to move me my freind.

Sort:  

Words can't really convey the feelings that I have for this song, I have so much of my life wound up in this track and this band! They left a part of their soul on each one of these records and if you listen close enough it sings to you. I'm sure that Syd turned up whilst they were recording this album, thinking he was still the lead singer? A truly monumental masterpiece .. thank you for sharing @tremendospercy

So many times over the years when I was travelling this track came to my rescue.
All in all I don't think there has been or will ever be a more influential, emotive and talented group of musicians.
Their work is etched on my soul dude as I'm sure it is with many of our generation.

One of my favourites, and the album accompanied me on my travels in the mid-1990s. In Nepal, I used to go to a bar where a local duo sang a great version of this song every night. I've never seen this video though!

Haha, I can see it now 😂
I have witnessed some truly dreadful attempts by singers in that part of the world try to recreate classics by PinkFloyd, The Eagles, The Doors etc.
Ahh the memories just come screeching back 😃 We may well have been in the same bar at the same time somewhere holding our hands over our ears! 😂

I can just imagine 😂😂 In fact I stayed in a place called the Prince Hostel and one of the guys who worked there was an amazing Princevestite... the big hair, purple velvet gear, everything but the voice... but no, this duo really were good - great voices and simple good guitar playing!
