Pink Floyd

Zen Virtual Piano-তে Pink Floyd-এর পিয়ানো শীট দেখুন। Bob Geldof's prompting led the band to play Live 8 in 2005, twenty years after Live Aid, and to ask Roger Waters to come along. Waters agreed; with the vocals shared between him and Gilmour, the set took in Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb and a pair of songs from Dark Side. A reunion at a charity concert after years of separation suggests how much of the band's story can be read through the tension between its two leading voices, and how long that tension outlasted the breakup itself. The Polar Music Prize traces the band to London in 1963 and 1964, when Roger Waters met the drummer Nick Mason on an architecture course at the Regent Street polytechnic. Pink Floyd was a name Syd Barrett improvised when a second band, also called the Tea Set, turned up on the same bill; he took it from two bluesmen whose records he owned, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. By late 1965 the Countdown Club in London had made them its house band, with three ninety-minute sets a night running into the early hours, an arrangement that taught them how songs could be extended through long solos. A residency of long nights that taught a young band to stretch its songs suggests how the group's long-form sound grew from hard practical work, and perhaps from the need to fill hours of stage time every night. Around the middle of 1967 Barrett began to show alarming signs of mental instability, allegedly from too much LSD, going catatonic on stage and playing music unrelated to the material, or nothing at all. Early in 1968 the band added a fifth member, David Gilmour, a Cambridge friend of theirs. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame traces the band's innovative sound from catchy singles through melodic jams like Echoes to post-Barrett concept albums, which it credits to Waters as primary lyricist working with Gilmour, Richard Wright and Mason. A bandleader's decline, a new guitarist and a shift from singles to concept albums hint at a group that reinvented itself around each loss, rather than ending when a leading figure left. Waters took the verses of Comfortably Numb and Gilmour the chorus; during recording they disagreed, Waters pushing for an orchestral treatment while Gilmour preferred something sparer. Gilmour has said the song represents "the last embers of his ability" to work collaboratively with Waters. Following three years of solo projects by all four members, Waters said he was quitting and breaking up the band; Gilmour and Mason, however, chose to keep Pink Floyd going. The band has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Halls of Fame in both the US and the UK and received Sweden's Polar Music Prize in 2008. A song made in disagreement that its guitarist later linked to the end of a partnership hints at how creative friction and breakup were intertwined.
