For anyone who doesn't understand why this music is amazing, why Gilmour's guitar is some of the most expressive ever committed to vinyl, or why this live performance is better than sex, do like they did when at this show back in '74 - have a sugar cube and shut the * ef * up...

A run consisting of "Speak to Me", "Money" and now "Us and Them". Some PF gluttony? Good like too much cajun food.

Oh really....? Still THE WALL? Hahahahaha - that's exactly what I am saying! Among many other things! |

This is probably the only radio ever that will play 15 minutes of PF straight. Gotta love Paradise.

I really don't understand the 8.8 rating: this version is even better than the album's, and that one is already godlike.

GRAUSAMES GEJAULE! Why is Gilmour considered to be a great guitar player? I was able to play such riffs when I was 14-15. It's just boring, even untalented, if you ask me! Why me? Ask Knopfler or Dominic Miller (Sting) - they can play the guitar! Ask a 1000 other guitarists! |

Not even a shadow of a melody! What has this Sugar-Daddy "Rock" to do with eclectic Rock Music? I will neither ever understand, nor EVEr accept!
This is pityful "over-60" stadion-rock for those who have never
felt and heard real Rock'n'Roll. Slimey, oily bull!

I wore this album out-way back when. No, no Wizard of Oz stuff...Just good music for the time... Then I didn't wish to hear it... *Now* thru the magic of the RP flow...It fits and is welcome... as an old friend in new clothing... It's not the one song...But the human ear and taste that knit such a pleasant experience... Thank You ! Yet-again...

My sunday just got better; one of the 20 min PF live sets and I turn up the volume… wait it continues yes yes yes First time that I heard the full set... How can I have missed it before?!!! This is why we listen to RP; any commercial station would go bancrupt pulling stunts like this  Now I just have to get back to do the stuff that I was supposed to be doing this afternoon |

Thank you Bill and RP. This extended live version is the Cream. Sadly, I do get tired of hearing so much "standard" Floyd (especially The Wall) - but this, this is Heaven.

Would love it if Bill would give us a heads up in advance when he's going to play these extended - AMAZING - versions so I can position myself for optimal listening!

That was cruel :) Clare Torry is the answer. "The Great Gig in the Sky" In 2004, she sued Pink Floyd and EMI for songwriting royalties on the basis that her contribution to "The Great Gig in the Sky" constituted co-authorship with keyboardist Richard Wright. Originally, she was paid the standard flat fee of £30 for Sunday studio work. In 2005, an out-of-court settlement was reached in Torry's favour, although the terms of the settlement were not disclosed. All releases after 2005 credit 'Richard Wright/Clare Torry' for the "Great Gig in the Sky" segment.
Er, TerryS, your cut and paste about CT singing the amazing vocals on GGITS is correct, but I don't believe she sang on any other track on the album, and I don't believe she ever toured with them. So that can't be her singing on this track. |
