Pink Floyd

Syd Barrett did acid and it basically destroyed him,

Roger Waters denys drug use saying "If you mean Pink Floyd took drugs - you're wrong. There is no way that I could play music and take any kind of drug at the same time." he used LSD a few times and vowed never to use it again after having a near death expiriance when he stepped into traffic and almost getting hit by an oncoming car.

try doing a Google search im not sure about the other members that's all i know about pink floyds drug use.

Richard Wright was a cocaine addict in the seventies, it's one of the reasons he got fired from the band.

In the US it was "Money" which went to number 13 in May 1973

Richard William Wright b.1943 played the keyboards for Pink Floyd for every album except for much of 'The Wall' due do his firing from the band by Roger Waters during the recording of the album. He was also absent for Waters last Pink Floyd album 'The Final Cut'. Wright, along with David Gilmour and Nick Mason reunited as Pink Floyd in 1987. Rick Wright succumbed to cancer on September 15,2008.

Pink Floyd is best known for their bestselling album "The Dark Side of the Moon" which was released in 1973. This album includes the tracks "Time", "Us and Them" and "Money", etc. that remain popular to this day.

The Beatles won Best New Artist in 1964 and Best Performance by a Vocal Group for A Hard Day's Night in the same year.

In 1967 they won Best Contemporary Single (for Sgt Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band - which, ironically, was not released as a single in the UK).

The Beatles also won Album of the Year in 1967; they were the first rock band to even be nominated for that award and remained the only rock band nominated until 1970.

Ironically, the Beatles "best" year for the Grammys was 1996 when they won three: Best Music Video, Long Form - for The Beatles Anthology, Best Music Video, Short Form - for Free as a Bird and Best Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal (again for Free as a Bird).

Answer Music is the best thing in the world and nothing will ever compare to the things that music does to ones soul!!! NEVER!!

I think classical is great for growth, but hard core rock brutally kills them.

Research has shown that if you compare a musician's brain to that of an average person, you will see many physical differences. However, if you compare a mathematician's brain to that of an average person you will see little differences. This is not to suggest that the musician's brain is a "better" brain, it just points out that music causes change in more parts of the brain. Read "Music Ophelia" by Oliver Sacks

Effects of music on individuals can be numerous. Each person understands a song or classical piece differently, if even ever so slightly. You may be thinking that no has ever experienced love as you have, and so no one has been treated badly in a relationship like you have. Music first draws you into listening like you never would have normally. Conversations about love are mundane sometimes. But music may touch you in a way you that you like. Now, when you hear someone sing about the way he was left for someone else, you really hear them! The message may go on to say how this individual is going to deal with this person who was so careless with their trust. Then you realize that is the same thing you wanted to do; move on and never look back. Now you feel whole because you can relate to someone else with the same events in their life. Now you start looking for more songs that bring out more of your personality.

"Did u ever notice that your mood is different when you listen to different music? basically music affects your mood. also classical music has been found to make young toddlers actually smarter.

also kids who participate in some sort of musical class have been found to do better on SATS and PSSAs. music seriously is good for you!!!!!!!! and the great thing is music likes can be changed as u grow to fit ur styles. u can always change wat u like"

Answer

Whenever you watch a movie theres always music in the background.......Now think about the scene your watching and try to think about why the person chose that song.....Its to make you feel it its to give you an emotion and that's what music does in general when some people are hurting they might play a sad song or a happy song to cheer them up. Its all about emotions and connections

Answer - In addition to the psychological effects music can have it can also play a big part in physiological changes. Listening to fast music can speed your heart rate up, therefore, listening to slow/relaxing music can have a calming effect by slowing the heart rate and breathing down. It has been shown to provide pain relief, aid migraines and even boost your immunity. So, music isn't just good for the soul, but also fantastic for the body and your overall health.

The Rolling Stones. They've been around at least 15 years longer than U2, and still are the world's all-time most successful rock band!

The cover art on Meddle is supposed to be a visualization of sound under water, "an ear underwater" according to Nick Mason. A band associate originally wanted a close up photo of a baboon's anus, but the members rejected it.

The members of Pink Floyd include Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, Richard Wright, and Nick Mason. They were the original members. Later on around 1968 - 1969, David Gilmour joined the group as Barretts behaviour had become erratic. Eventually, Gilmour would replace Barrett altogether.

Bruce Johnston, Jon Joyce, Joe Chemay, Toni Tennille,Jim Haas, Stan Farber.

No. Roger Waters is not Jewish. He's an atheist.

He is also very anti-religion.

His father however was a faithful Christian.

I have been looking for these too. Unfortunately, they don't make them anymore and they are extremely hard to find.

Possibly on eBay but they'll be pretty pricey....

Drums

Ummagumma was created on 1969-10-25.

There isn't one.

Goose-stepping hammers, flying pigs and the font used for The Wall are all considered to be Pink Floyd's trademark symbols but not a logo.

the main character was based on Syd, yes. but other parts are about roger waters losing his father in WWII, and about people who isolate themselves from society (although i suppose that applies to syd as well).

*Different Poster* Actually, Roger Waters wrote the album about his own life growing up. How his father died when he was young, and his mother was over-bearing, and his teachers hated him, and eventually he felt like he has lost touch with everyone (including his fans), and thus built a giant wall between him and everyone else. But, there were references to Syd Barrett in it. Such as when he shaves his whole body. Barrett did that after having a mental breakdown.

So, short answer: No, not really.

Their biggest hit was "The Wall"

Pat Fitzpatrick and Bob Floyd. They began Fitz & Floyd in 1960 importing products, as well as creating ceramic work. It wasn't until the 1970's when their technique for beautifully hand painted ceramics emerged along with a dedicated following of clients. They are most recognized for their line of kitchen decor such as canape plates, cookie jars, salt & pepper shakers or tea pots. Their collections are centered around specific themes, such as Christmas and Easter. The collections are continuously growing.

Yes, Pink Floyd was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996, and Metallica was inducted in 2009.

None

To purchase the song Echoes by the band Pink Floyd, there are a few options. One would be seeking to purchase the song as a single, which could be accomplished on Amazon, among other places. The other option is to purchase the full CD " The Best Of Pink Floyd", which could be obtained through the Wal Mart website.

Pink Floyd were a British progressive rock band that was started in the late 60's by 3 architects. Later one of the members, Roger Waters, invited his childhood friend, Sid Barret, to join the band. Sid gave the band it's classic sound but fell victim to drugs later on. After this, they invited one of Sid's Uni friends, David Gilmore to replace Sid. After this they release some of the most iconic albums of all time (Dark Side Of The Moon). Pink Floyd are still considered one of the best ever rock bands of all time.

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell,

Blue skies from pain.

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

Did you exchange

A walk on part in the war,

For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl,

Year after year,

Running over the same old ground.

What have we found?

The same old fears.

Wish you were here.

yes
