I admire Dylan and think Pink Floyd were genius. I also admire literary classics and think zombies are kinda cool. This does NOT mean  "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" was a good idea.

This only gets a 2 because it's a godawful cover of a great song, so I didn't feel like a 1 would tell the whole story.

Then again, covering a great song badly might be even more reason to lose points.

Dang...did I just hear Auto-tune on "Masters of War?" Not sure...just walked into the room at the end of it...if so, OUCH!

Yeah. I've never heard of this band but apparently they do Pink Floyd covers. That shtick doesn't work for this song—it feels pompous and overblown. 

It's pretty hard to top the early Dylan when it comes to a song like this.

Neat to think that this is Nottamun Town—-an olde English tune. (I think on Fairport "What We Did on Our Holidays."

Bob Dylan's angst about war meets Pink Floyd's unique prog-rock sound meets some very talented, tight musicians meets some decent writing meets some great production values.

 

I hear much to like.

 

If I was on the receiving end of PF royalties, I would feel flattered.


Posted 13 years ago by westslope    [ Reply ]

RPWL is to Pink Floyd as Kingdom Come was to Led Zeppelin; they both have enough talent to do first rate imitations with (often) orignal songs that will ocassionally pass as songs by the original artists in their declining years

The song in itself i'd say an easy 8.

The fact that it sounds exactly like Gilmour's Pink Floyd period, an easy 4.

That would make a 6 then.... Oh well...

Yea, but as stated below in this thread there is a HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE difference between classic early Floyd and the stuff they did after Waters departure. I think this songs sounds like the latter Floyd which is not really a compliment.{#No}

Lemmoth and I disagree again.  BFD.

The point is that to me, this is a worthy version of this tune.  I didn't miss anything at all.  I have had it on a playlist in my juke box since I downloaded it and it gets better with repeated listenings.

In fact, the point that Lemmoth consistently appears to miss is that the opinion of someone who doesn't share his isn't any less valid. 

At least he's stopped calling me names.  That's a step towards him becoming an adult.

I disagree.  Dylan's stuff is often better interpreted by other artists than by Dylan himself, and I think that this is one of those cases.

Hendrix's version of Watchtower may be the best example, but there are loads more.

Full disclosure: I uploaded Dave Alvin's version of Highway 61, which has one of the best grooves I've ever heard.  Initially it took a real slagging and then I think people started to realize that it was a more than legitimate take on the tune.

Blimey they formed in Germany and I have never heard of them, tho no real surprise there.

It makes sense.. I wonder if the lead singer is a native speaker or just another perfectionist German trying to speak the language so well that he ends up sounding like a public school boy trying to be bitter and twisted about the raisins in the school cooking.

Would work ok if he was singing about something else (perhaps raisins) but not this song.
This song needs raw passion otherwise it falls flat on its face.
