He was just posting an opinion. There's no need for a hissy fit when people don't think what you do.


I've honestly never listened to this album I'm going to listen to it night. I like weird things like Ex Models so maybe I'll like this.

I saw this interview a while ago with Roger Waters where he said that it actually took a lot of persuading on the bands part to get "Interstellar Overdrive" and "Pow R. Toc H" on the final album because the producer wasnt interested in them, he was more interested in Barrett's pop songs.

I don't know about that. Barrett once complained that because of the venues that they played the band were basically thought of as a dance band and not a band to actively listen to. The fact that people were dancing about to Pink Floyd instead of scratching their chin to my mind suggests that they were indeed accessible and that they werent trying to be so arty as to alienate people.

Producers are usually wrong. They are more concerned with making the album accessible to consumers than fulfilling the artistic aspirations of the musician. Which I think is what a producers job should be.

But sometimes producers have the right idea. Nevermind is one of my favorite albums, and I love Butch Vigs production even though I know that Cobain hated it and wanted to produce a lo-fi, muddy sounding record like all the Indie stuff around that time.

It was the 60s, the summer of love, everyone was high. They would dance to virtually everything.

I guess so. Have you ever heard the story about the show they played at the Filmore where Barrett detuned his guitar untill it sounded absolutely awful and just played that. Barret's horrible noise was their show. Wright didnt know what to make of it but he said the audience loved it.

I suppose thats what pot can do to your brain.

I.m not going to get into a flaming war, but i am not retarded. You don't know who the **** I am. I disagreed with your post. If you have read some of my previous posts, you will know that my favourite band is Pink Floyd. If someone disagrees with your opinion, you dont call them retarded, because perversely; that's what your retort is and no, I don't understand what I said. English is a completely foreign tongue to me. you have an extremely short fuse and it is'nt the first time you have disagreed with me so vehemently.

We can exchange opinions but calling people retarded is out of order.

Its not that simple. When you call somebodies post "F*cking bullsh*t" unprovoked and make the kind of generalisation about the band that you did like its pure fact. You can't expect that person not to get a little irritated by your attitude.

You response was not nice at all and was uncalled for, and now you're talking down to me a like you're a damn mod?
