Pink Floyd-Shine On You Crazy Diamond Part VI-VII
an ARP String Ensemble Synthesizer and after a few measures, several rhythm guitar parts (Gilmour played the power chord rhythm part using his black Fender Stratocaster before switching to lap steel guitar for the solo in live performances in 1974 to 1977. Snowy White did the rhythm guitar parts on this track on the band's 1977 "In the Flesh" tour) and drums come in, a Mini-Moog Synthesizer comes in to play the opening solo.

He never put a finger wrong on any instrument. Dont know him personally but geeez. What a well driven guitar aye?
Wait–you’re listening to an song dedicated to Syd Barrett, and you don’t know who he is?
Syd Barrett was the original singer of Pink Floyd… He had a problem with acid and dropped off the deep end before they ever became a commercial success….. Dave Gilmore replaced him as the singer. Pink Floyd supported him for the rest of his life, most of which was spent in and out of institutions. The damage done was permanent, and he passed away in 2006, check out Rolling Stone Magazine, they did a big article about it when he died.
Let go of the steering wheel and flow with the music.
i am a space cadet!
For gietek
My opinion: if someone is the fastest keyboardist in the world it doesn’t mean this man is the best keyboardist. First you need creativity, You could play slow and be creative as you could play fast and give no emotions to the listener
he was the original guitarist, actually.
and the original singer/songwriter…… look up the biography… but thank you for the correction……
who knew they had this kind of technology back when ahha i mean you think they wouldnt
Thanks thanks i have said it before your slection of song so well organized.this is the best music ever thank god pink floyd came in our generation million stars
This version was taped on a video commercial selling the “MG” autos, around 1976. Showed a plane flying with an MG as cargo. Planes hatch door opened and out went the MG, seconds later a parachute opens, gently sending the car earthward, car touches ground and parachute drapes over it. Someone drove it away. COOOOOL commercial, great tune, excellent vid.
