- F i n a l l y ! ! !
I finished listening to your excellent flashback / Deja Vu podcast episode - Thanks Doc. As a 4-time visitor to the Dutch Haven of Amsterdam, I sure appreciate these kinds of musical "nugs" to remind me of my daze in one of the coolest places in the world: (For those who know, you know...)
-> "Barney's" for the best "Dam" Psychedelic Breakfast!
-> "De Dampkring"
-> "Greenhouse Effect" - then over to "Hill Street Blues" to hang out
-> "Home Growers Fantasy" - dude, that pisser is one you'll never forget!
-> "BlueBird" (upstairs!)
-> "Pink Floyd" has a VERY cool mural and worth seeing, but somehow high energy techno music is like fingernails on a blackboard in there (had to leave that place!)
and, of course, "Grey Area" :-)-~ ~ ~
The memories of a man in his old age
-- Are the deeds of a man in his prime. - Another excellent podcast from the master!!!
new listener(since Down-under 2.0),now longtime fan. Again, superd job!! By the way...my fav floyd track is not now john..has that ever been done live or anything else beside the censored ver.?? maybe podcast in progress.... - As you may well know, my standards regarding sound quality is very high. The quality of most if not all early Pink Floyd concert recordings available (and theres not many) from the Barrett era are absolutely abysmal unfortunately and beyond repair. The Barrett era material that is listenable has already been featured several times in other podcasts and I'll will continue to do so from time to time.
- the beginning clip is from the "reality" tv show, "My Fair Brady" Episode 4 Father Knows Best. Right at the end of the episode...
The guy is Chris Knight and the chick (who's completely wasted in that clip) is Adrianne Curry.
Thanks to the guys in
Gilmour's Breakfast for alerting me to that gem.
- Hi doc! Great podcast! Was also wondering where the beginning clip was from though..? Any chance of Roger Waters Hyde park, London show from 2006 in a future show.....? Or how about the Doc's personal top 20 floyd tracks...would love to hear that!!! Take it easy.
- Very nice, Doc! I've always wanted to hear these shows, but I've never had a chance. Hey, I've got two rather rare 1968 shows (one from a Halloween TV show, and the other a 2 song "Interstellar Overdrive"/"A Saucerful of Secrets" complete show from L.A.) If you'd like to get a hold of them, drop me an e-mail.
