Dave opens with a heartfelt intro about the Total Replay series — replaying all early episodes with Chris O'Connor, Dave's co-creator who died of a fentanyl overdose in July 2018. Dave explains why these replays matter: listeners who came later are getting to know Chris for the first time, and can trace his recovery, his relapse, and his death in real time across 130 episodes. Dave promotes the Dopey Film Festival (June 26, SVA Theatre, NYC), reads Patreon and Spotify comments — including a standout from a listener now 1.5 years sober who used to listen while walking to cop — and recaps the Knicks NBA Finals run. The replayed episode is #30 — a two-hour classic with Dave, Chris, and a special guest called only "Jay," a musician from a prominent 90s band who remains anonymous. Jay gave Dave his first bag of weed in 1994. The episode covers: Jay's origin story (karate → weed → crack senior year of high school → speedballing → 20+ years of heroin); kicking dope in Jerusalem while on tour; copping in Austin at South by Southwest while sick on fake methadone; Dave's multiple arrest stories including being arrested twice in one day on the Lower East Side, getting jumped and pistol-whipped, buying drugs at Barnes & Noble, and getting arrested sober for putting up a sticker and giving his hoodie to a teenager in jail. Closes with Jay's 16 years of sobriety and how getting clean made him a better performer, plus a deep discussion of Syd Barrett, AA traditions, Under Earners Anonymous, Sex and Love Addicts, and a listener email from Scott — a truck driver 7 weeks clean.

If you've ever listened to Robyn Hitchcock's music, you know that it can get pretty surrealistic. Some might say divinely bizarre and eclectic. Others might just say weird. All of that's fine with the London-born, Nashville-based artist, who has been putting out music on his own and with The Soft Boys and The Egyptians for half a century. Robyn says he's very happy to be in touch with a world beyond the view of the average human and enjoys communicating that world to the rest of us. Part of it has to do, he says, with being pretty solidly on the spectrum and seeing that not as a hindrance but an opportunity. He tells us about such matters as feathery Mexican serpent gods, polka dot shirts, the lives of Syd Barrett and Roger Barrett, and his partnership with his wife and record label head Emma Swift, who was on our show a few months ago. Our host John Moe is a big Robyn fan and wrote five introductions to this episode. If you want to skip them (and you'd be really missing out), the interview itself begins around [12:13].

The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
John Leckie is one of British rock’s greatest producers, who started out as a tape operator at Abbey Road in 1970, thrown immediately into sessions for George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass and John Lennon’s Plastic Ono Band. This interview, conducted live at The CAT Club in September 2025, focuses on Sunburst Finish, the Be Bop Deluxe album that gave Leckie his first official production credit, and covers both the making of the album and his creative partnership with Bill Nelson. Additionally, Leckie gives a first-hand account of Syd Barrett’s unannounced appearance during the Wish You Were Here sessions, an encounter he stumbled into while raiding Pink Floyd’s beer fridge, only for Roger Waters to stop the tape and ask who the stranger standing next to him was. The Q&A session draws out further stories about working with The La’s, the Stone Roses’ debut, and how XTC – who idolised Bill Nelson, led Leckie to leave EMI and go independent.

A whole new age of psychedelia kicked off in the mid-‘80s, of dream-weavers and glorious underachievers, a complete rejection of the standard rock approach to stagecraft, sound and self-promotion. Simon Reynolds was at the heart of it, writing for Melody Maker and piping aboard the pioneering noise-mongers aiming to entrance and disorientate, as recalled in his new book ‘Still In A Dream: Shoegaze, Slackers and the Reinvention of Rock 1984-1994'. He looks back with us here from his home in Los Angeles at its key bands, events and spiritual godfathers, these among them … … the return to childhood via Syd Barrett and Jonathan Richman to Sarah Records … is ‘feeble little horse' the most Shoegaze band name ever? ... what it was about Morrissey that made Smiths singles sink after Top Of The Pops … the reason Bowie formed a band … charming/infuriating interviews with the Cocteau Twins: “words only have any meaning when they're sung” … how Britpop brought down the curtain of the wall of sound … Shoegaze, Dreampop, Lovelynoise, Wide-Brimmed Hat Music and the rock press attempt to impose order: “if a band was on the cover they could double their fee” ... the divine arrogance of Lawrence of Felt who “didn't want ordinary people buying my records” … the ever-extending “noise chasms” of My Bloody Valentine … “shattering quartz”: reviewing music that's about sound not words … Shoegaze DNA in the 21st Century ... and the greatest album of that decade, “each track like a session beer”.

Amarok c'est le jeudi et l'Ascension c'est toujours un jeudi alors il fallait bien que je fasse un jour une thématique, même pour le moins… approximative ! Rassurez-vous, pas de playlist "religieuse"; mais juste un clin d'œil avec deux morceaux portant ce titre similaire ainsi qu'une musque globalement "aérienne" (avec pas mal de synthétiseurs) et /ou aux noms quelque peu évocateurs : En ouverture d'émission j'ai choisi un titre tiré d'un livre d'Atrhur C. Clarke qui y décrit un système permettant de faire monter à bord d'un vaisseau spatial (de terriens en exil faisant escale en orbite d'une planète), de l'eau grâce à un câble, opération très sensible ayant pour nom Ascension et dont le titre figure sur l'adaptation musicale de ce roman sous le même titre "Songs Of Distant Eatrh" par MIKE OLDFIELD en 1994. Le second morceau intitulé "Ascension" en fin de programme est effectivement une musique dont le terme se rapporte à la spiritualité, publié en 2021 par le King of the Keybords RICHARD ANTHONY BEAN, tiré de l'album éponyme. Un instrumental épique et chargé d'émotions comme Richard sait si bien le faire ! J'en profite pour vous recommander sa nouvelle production : un album de reprises de de l'un des mentors de Richard, le grand Vangelis, sous le titre Pulstar", dix reprises par le disciple anglais disponible ! Entre ces deux titres, une expérience religieuse. Rassurez--vous, je veux parler de ce titre particulier de KEVIN AYERS ! "Religious Experience", titre de travail de "Singing A Song In The Morning", 1er single de Kevin Ayers en solo sorti quelques mois après son 1er album "Joy Of A Toy" (1969) dont l'extrait "Eleanor's Cake" était placé en face B ("Singing ..." n'étant pas sur l'album original). Le contexte : Avec ses collègues de Soft Machine qu'il vient de quitter, Kevin a donné un coup de main à l'enregistrement de "Madcap Laughs", 1er album solo de SYD BARRETT, leader et co-fondateur de Pink Floyd dont on connait l'état psychique dans il se trouvait alors et qui avait sérieusement besoin de renforts pour aller au terme de cet album… Durant ces séances, Syd va enregistrer une piste de guitare pour Kevin, destiné à son single, piste qui ne sera finalement pas conservée dans le mixage final paru début 1970. Hors en 2003, à l'occasion de la réédition de l'album "Joy Of A Toy", ce fameux single réintitulé "Religious Experience" y est ajouté en bonus avec la piste guitare de Syd ! Un beau témoignage et c'est cette version qui vous était proposée dans ce numéro ! Nous avons quitté provisoirement les Sujets de sa Majesté pour aller faire un tour en Russie y retrouver le duo SUN Q. Bientôt dix ans que ce duo composé d' Ivan Shalimov et Elena Tiron y fait ses gammes et j'avais eu plaisir à diffuser des extrait de leur album "Myth" en 2023. Sun Q propose habituellement une pop-rock à tendance progressive mais sur ce nouvel opus, ils ont imaginé ce qu'aurait pu être "Mythe" s'il avait été écrit dans les années 80, dans la mouvance new wave, synthpop. "Mythwave" n'est pas un réenregistrement de "Myht" mais un aperçu de ce que sa création aurait pu être dans cet univers hybride entre nostalgie analogique et univers cinématique et futuriste. Le visuel de l'album (sorti aujourd'hui même ! ) représente une pochette de vinyle écorné et je lui souhaite une belle… ascension dans les charts ! Autre nouveauté fort intéressante : "Fields And Worms" par LUCIE SHAME. Je n'ai découvert cette artiste que cette semaine et même si je m'éloigne des musiques progressives, ce single n'est pas hors de propos dans cette émission, un morceau plutôt "art rock - folk" s'il fallait vraiment lui coller une étiquette mais surtout d'un grande sensibilité. Sa créatrice et interprète a reçue une éducation musicale classique au piano mais très vite, elle s'est découvert une appétence pour la poésie, l'écriture et la composition. Et puis le grunge à l'adolescence. Forte de ce bagage hybride, elle enregistre un album sur un simple magnéto cassette à 17 ans dans sa chambre. Ajoutez une expérience de vie personnelle assez rude et vous avez alors quelques éléments pour comprendre sa musique, un croisement entre classique, P.J. Harvey et Kate Bush et ce titre que je vous proposais donc dans ce numéro, un texte évoquant à la première personne la plongée dans l'au-delà d'une suicidée, pas le titre le plus gai de l'émission je vous l'accorde, mais d'une magnifique sensibilité ! Ce qui est incroyable avec cette émission c'est qu'en la préparant je fais encore des découvertes d'artistes pourtant reconnus mais dont j'étais passé à côté… Alors sachant que cette émission est aussi (un peu) suivie au Québec, j'entend déjà des railleries (justifiées) outre atlantique ! ! JEAN-PIERRE FERLAND y a été célèbre, et même animateur de télé ! Mais évidemment c'est sa musique qui m'a interpellé (grâce aux bons conseils judicieux d'un ami musicien). A ma décharge, son œuvre n'est pas spécifiquement "rock progressif" mais quand même : l'album "Jaune", quelle originalité ! Si la structure musicale n'est pas forcément prog, la subtilité des arrangements, le son, tout en fait un album qui a légitimement sa place ici ! D'ailleurs, on y trouve un certain Tony Levin, bassiste futur membre de King Crimson, tiens donc… mais aussi (entre autres) le guitariste David Spinoza qui sera appelé à jouer entre autres belles collaborations (la liste est trop longue) , sur des albums de McCartney, Lennon et Star. Jean-Pierre nous a quittés en 2024 mais il laisse une belle discographie à (re)découvrir peu importe les genres et notamment "Jaune" cette pépite de 1970 donc l'extrait "God Is An America", titre forcément lié au thème de ce numéro mais surtout qui n' a jamais sonné aussi juste face aux égos démesurés d'un Donald ou autres dirigeants actuels, laissez moi rire...jaune ! Il y a quelques semaines, une nouvelle pépite est arrivée : "Autumn" , le nouvel album du multi-instrumentiste normand (entre autres compétences de producteur, auteur de musique de films) EMMANUEL QUENNEVILLE. A l'inverse de son dernier album "Dôme" qui nous avaient envoyés dans l'espace, ce nouvel opus sonne plus près de nous pauvres pécheurs mais reste aussi pas certains côtés, un album encore aérien (Si vous êtes aficionados de la musique oldfieldienne, vous noterez les influences dans le jeu de guitare d'Emmanuel qui lui confère aussi cet aspect). Plus lyrique aussi, il invite tant à l'introspection qu'au voyage intérieur (je vous recommande une belle séance d'écoute au casque , imparable ! ). En bonus, la superbe pochette de l'album digne de la célèbre maison Hipgnosis (à qui l'on doit notamment la plupart des pochettes de Pink Floyd),mais c'est à sa fille Clem qui a réalisé ce beau visuel, image garantie sans intelligence artificielle ! Enfin, sans citer tous les collaborateurs de ce bel album, mais au moins quand même : Lambert Wilson et Pedro Almodovar ! Le cinéma dans vos oreilles ! Désolé si j'ai plombé l'ambiance avec le single de Lucie Shame, mais je réitère avec histoire de femme découverte dans son appartement londonien trois ans après sa mort. Le talentueux STEVEN WILSON s'est inspirée de cette tragédie symptomatique de notre société d'isolement derrière l'apparence d'être connectés… Le 4ème album solo du fondateur de Porcupine Tree basé sur ce triste fait ...d'hiver social est juste entré parmi les indispensables de ma discographie. Extrait dans ce numéro de "Hand Cannot Erase" sorti en 2015. Je vous rappelle qu'en 2026, Steven Wilson se produira en concert uniquement pour deux dates uniques : 28 et 29 octobre au prestigieux Royal Albert Hall avec chœur et orchestre, avis aux fans ! Le multi-instrumentiste et producteur anglais BRENDAN PERKINS vient de publier un nouvel album intitulé "Trading River Songs qu'il décrit comme "rock progressif pastoral et symphonique". Je l'en remercie car cela m'évite d'avoir à trop me creuser la tête pour le décrire, oui j'aime bien aussi profiter des jours fériés ! Cela dit, je vous confirme que la description est correcte, j'ajouterai qu'à l'instar d' "Autumn" d'Emmanuel Quenneville, cet album gagne à être écouté en immersion et sous casque. Le titre éponyme proposé ce soir évoque les épreuves d'une famille qui va retrouver son statut de "clan". Vous avez les infos : montez le son ! Pour revenir au thème de notre émission, pas possible de passer à côté de la Genèse, autrement dit GENESIS ! L'occasion de revenir sur cet album (double et pas expresso s'il vous plait ! ) de 1974 : "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway". Un album remarquable et ultime participation de Peter Gabriel qui s'est vu offrir (l'album, pas Peter ! ) à l'occasion de ses 50 ans une cure de remasterisation augmentée d'un live d'époque et de quelques goodies dans un somptueux coffret. Bon encore des sous à dépenser mais c'est vrai que 50 ans ça se fête ! Le problème c'est que cette époque bénie du rock progressif regorge de rééditions sous formes d'onéreux coffrets depuis quelques années. On devrait être plus tranquille et faire des économies à la fin de la décennie ! Avant de refermer cet épisode et reprendre l'Ascension avec Richard Anthony Bean, un petit tour en Australie avec un groupe au nom un peu à rallonge : THE SEA NOT HAVE THEM (du nom d'un film de guerre anglais et devise de l'unité de secours de la Royal Air Force). Mais revenons à ce qui nous intéresse ici, la musique. TSNHT (c'est plus facile ! ) propose un post-rock ambient qui se caractérise par un juste équilibre entre un son puissant, énergique et des sonorités aériennes. Finalement on peut faire une analogie avec la Royal Air Force ! Cette formation m'était inconnue mais je suis tombé dessus (pas de mon Hawker je vous rassure ! ) en suivant l'actu de leurs compatriotes ORPHANED BEE, projet qui propose un mélange de synthwave et de rock psychédélique et que j'ai déjà eu l'occasion de vous présenter ici. Le single "No Breathing In Dreams" vient donc d'être publié par TSNHT mais en collaboration pertinente et réussie avec les Orphaned Bee. Le temps de gagner en altitude pour une Ascension finale, promis je reviens sur Terre jeudi prochain à 20h ! Thierry Joigny AMAROK, chaque jeudi à 20h
Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we dive into Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, a haunting and emotional follow-up to The Dark Side of the Moon. From the sprawling brilliance of “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” to the title track's timeless sense of loss and longing, we explore how the album reflects absence, fame, the music industry, and the shadow of former bandmate Syd Barrett. It's a record that feels both massive and deeply personal — one of Pink Floyd's most powerful statements.

Don and Dude fire up an episode about albums built for a hazy 420 state of mind, from British space rock experiments to prairie bred retro rock perfect for late night clouds and long drives. Pink Floyd's early psychedelia and The Sheepdogs' warm, guitar heavy grooves share the spotlight as the guys explore how trippy textures and laid back riffs fuel the same smoky headspace.The Albums Pink Floyd – The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967) English psych pioneers introduce themselves with a strange, playful, deeply trippy debut where Syd Barrett's surreal lyrics, space rock explorations, and free form jams turn fairy tales and cosmic prayers into a full body experience. Recorded at Abbey Road while The Beatles worked on Sgt Pepper, it slides between whimsical storybook pop and noisy improvisational freak outs, using tape effects and echo drenched organ to make outer space and inner confusion feel like the same room.The Sheepdogs – Learn & Burn (2010) Saskatoon bar band lifers cut a homegrown, 70s soaked guitar rock set aimed at the sweet spot between Led Zeppelin riffs and CSN harmonies, all warm tones, mid tempo grooves, and songs about drifting and digging in when life gets heavy. Cut at their DIY Sweatbox studio and later mixed in Philly, it plays like a lost FM staple, the record you throw on for a road trip, a porch hang, or a slow burning 420 afternoon.Diggin' AlbumsThe Props – Arrow EP (2026) LA upstarts slam sharp guitar rock into nervy new wave and post punk on a debut that feels like a neon lit coming of age flick, all hooks, tight grooves, and restless late night drive energy.Jimi Hendrix – Electric Ladyland (1968) A sprawling, studio stretching double album where Hendrix fuses blues, soul, and psychedelia into long jams and iconic covers, the textbook lights out, headphones on trip.Ashley Monroe – Dear Nashville (2026) A veteran songwriter turns her long, complicated history with Music City into a letter like concept album, blending gratitude and bruised affection over lush Americana.Trashcan Sinatras – Ever the Optimist (2026) Scottish cult favorites return with jangly, reflective guitar pop that feels like catching up with old friends, all gentle melodies and quietly hopeful glow.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing with a fellow music obsessive who still loves hearing whole albums front to back.“Behind every good man is a woman, and that woman was Martha Washington, man.

Mike Fiorito arrives at the Virtual Alexandria to discuss his new book, The Innerspace of Outerspace: Exploring Other Worlds Through Music. Let's explore the liminal realm where music acts as a vital portal to unseen dimensions and a map for the inner space of the human mind. We delve into the "tone science" of Sun Ra, whose cosmic jazz arrived like a signal from another universe, challenging conventional reality and offering a path to a more liberated alter-destiny. The journey continues through the ambient dreamscapes of Brian Eno and the progressive rock visions of Jon Anderson, exploring how these giants were inspired by non-human intelligences and realities beyond the material world. Alongside the insights of musical pioneers like Syd Barrett and Steven Halpern, we discover how sound serves as a universal language and a bridge to a sacred understanding of oneness with all of creation.

In Part 2 of our in-depth conversation with Greg Taylor, we turn to Pink Floyd's concerts in 1968, as Greg recalls a series of extraordinary performances he witnessed during that transitionary year.At the centre of the episode is Greg's vivid recollection of the 19 January 1968 concert at Lewes Town Hall, a rare performance featuring the short-lived five-man Pink Floyd line-up with Syd Barrett and David Gilmour both on stage. Greg remembers the evening in remarkable detail, from the character of the hall itself and the local promoter who organised the event, to the backstage atmosphere and the stories that have survived from that night.Most striking of all is Greg's memory of David Gilmour positioned slightly behind Syd Barrett on stage, ready to step forward if Syd stopped playing. It is a fascinating glimpse of Pink Floyd at a fragile moment, still carrying Syd's creative, painterly vision while beginning to adapt to the possibility of continuing without it.The conversation then moves through recollections of several other memorable performances from 1968, including the Falmer House Courtyard show at the University of Sussex in May, the Midsummer High weekend concert in June at Hyde Park, (where Greg captured remarkable photographs of the band at close range), and Middle Earth at the Roundhouse in October.Greg also talks about taping some of the Floyd's BBC sessions, photographing concerts as a teenager, and the atmosphere of the British underground music scene in the late 1960s.If you are interested in early Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett, psychedelic London, and the live music culture of the late 1960s, Greg's memories offer a rare, intimate, first-hand window into that world.Subscribe for more episodes, and we would love to hear your own recollections or questions in the comments. Part 3 on Greg's journey through 1969 - 1971 premieres next month, so don't miss it!

Emission dédiée à ma famille d'imbibés, les adhérents de l'association Un Pied Dans La Marge qui fête cette année ses 30 ans, tiens, comme votre radio préférée ça tombe bien ! C'est aussi l'âge de la formation actuelle du groupe ANGE (l'originale remonte à1969 ! ) dont l'association sus citée fut crée en soutient de la bande à Christian Décamps et permet encore aujourd'hui aux tôliers du rock progressif français d'être totalement indépendants. Enfin, rare sont les groupes à publier de nos jours un fanzine analogique, autrement dit papier...glacé s'il vous plait (contrairement à mon whisky bien sec mais avec modération bien entendu ☺️). Ce trimestriel intitulé "Plouc Magazine" vient de publier son centième numéro et son contenu a nourri en partie la seconde moitié de cette émission par ce triptyque angélique : D'abord , j'y apprend seulement maintenant, la disparition de JJ CHARDEAU...Quel personnage déjanté et génial...mais peu diffusé... ! ALAN SIMON avait collaboré à son opéra-rock "Magical Mystery Man" dont bon nombre de musiciens talentueux et renommés avaient participés, citons ici par exemple le saxophoniste de Supertramp John Helliwell, le violoniste du Mahavishnu Orchestra Jerry Goodman ou bien sur les trois membres de la famille Décamps ancien et actuels membres de Ange : Christian, Francis et Tristan...Cet opéra mis en scène par Alan qui en avait aussi écrit le livret devait donner lieu à la sotie de quatre albums consécutifs. Jean-Jacques n'aura eu le temps d'en enregistrer "seulement" deux...Extrait ici de son ultime production "Ombres & Lumières : Terra Cognita 2". Ensuite, "Cunégonde", le nouveau bébé unisexe de ANGE dont un nouvel extrait est proposé avec dans ce numéro, l'un des rares titres chantés par Christian sur cet album, le membre fondateur ayant pris une retraite bien méritée de la scène, il s'est également mis en retrait du chant sur cet opus. Mais il n'en demeure pas moins le moteur, le parolier principal et prête parfois comme ici le son de sa voix unique, le tout magnifié par sa bande de musiciens exceptionnels ! Enfin, dans ce numéro 100 du "Plouc", je découvre aussi la chronique d'un album de l'artiste nancéen FRANCK TIRA, qui a sorti l'année dernière l'album "Amara" dans lequel je me suis plongé avec délectation ! Cet album est le pendant d'un récit du même auteur qui a donc plus d'une corde à son arc, "L'Enigme des 3A", dont Amara en est justement le personnage principal. Une belle découverte ! Mais avant cette trilogie angélique, une parution toute fraiche a démarré l'émission, avec les suédois de HÄLLAS qui a pu ravir les cages à miel des aficionados du hard-rock typé 70's. Le groupe dont le 1er EP éponyme est sorti en 2015, est en effet orienté heavy metal, hard-rock progressif, bref du bon son plein d'énergie pour démarrer ce numéro avec leur tout nouvel album "Panorama" sorti en début d'année. La semaine dernière nous avons découvert un premier extrait du tout nouvel album de LAZULI (voir la page de podcast du numéro précédent). Comme à chaque diffusion de la musique des Léonetti et Consorts, je fais cette amère constatation du manque de concerts dans l'hexagone alors que le groupe, qui s'exprime dans la langue de Molière, jouit d'une grande notoriété chez nos voisins d'Europe du Nord ! Merci à Louis de m'a avoir rapporté cette info primordiale : Lazuli assurera la première partie du grand MARILLION lors des dates françaises de la tournée du groupe en novembre 2026 ! Une excellente nouvelle et pour fêter ça, un extrait de l'album "Marillion.com" paru en 1999 ! Comme nos voisins anglais, mais de ce côté-ci de la Manche et plus précisément à Brest, a été fondé un groupe de rock progressif au tout début des années 80 : HALLOWEEN. Il en fallait du courage pour se lancer dans une telle aventure car si le genre n'est pas le plus diffusé sur les ondes "mainstream" aujourd'hui, c'était sans doute pire dans cette décennie balayée par le punk. Mis en pause en 2002, la formation s'est, avec quelques mouvements de personnels, remise en ordre de marche au moment de la pandémie en 2020. Depuis un nouvel album a vu le jour "Psy-Ko", une savante fusion de rock et de jazz avec un chant féminin en français dans le texte s'il vous plait ! Une belle découverte grâce à l'un d'entre vous et un groupe à (re)découvrir absolument ! En 1973, c'est le groupe PROCOL HARUM qui subissait quelques changements, d'ailleurs salutaires pour le regretté Garry Brooker qui reprenait pleinement les commandes de son bébé pour publier "Grand Hotel", que beaucoup considèrent comme le top de leur discographie, en tout cas un incontournable toujours le bienvenu à l'antenne ici ! En 2010, sous le nom de Marco, un musicien français lançais le projet instrumental EDENYA qui sera finalement aussi chanté. Un EP et quelques albums suivants, la formation a su se hisser dans le haut du panier du rock progressif français (d'ailleurs je ne suis pas peu fier de savoir qu'un auditeur de la belle Bourgogne et aux pavillons bien aiguisés s'est procuré toute leur discographie en les entendant ici !! ) Retour dans ce numéro sur le dernier et excellent album "The Secret Destination You Are Looking For" que certain(e)s ont peut-être eu la chance de découvrir en live juste avant sa sortie l'été dernier au fameux festival CRESCENDO ! Faisons un grand saut par dessus la trilogie "spéciale imbibés" (que j'évoque au début de cette petite bafouille) pour une petite virgule pour un grand groupe, l'un des fleurons du rock progressif à l'italienne, j'ai nommé LE ORME ! Un court extrait ce soir de l'un des albums phares transalpin : "Felona E Sorona". En 2025, je n'ai pas boudé mon plaisir en diffusions multiples (intégrale, versions spéciales, live) de l'album de PINK FLOYD, l'iconique "Wish You Were Here" à l'occasion des 50 ans de la sortie de cet album majeur et de l'édition spéciale anniversaire. Pour conclure ce numéro, on revient aux prémices du succès du groupe avec un extrait de leur 2ème opus "A Saucerful Of Secrets". Un album transitoire avec encore quelques fulgurances d'un Syd Barrett qui sera trop perturbé pour continuer l'aventure et l'arrivée de son copain d'enfance David Gilmour qui petit à petit donnera au groupe sa signature guitaristique et caractéristique. Prémices d'un succès planétaire annoncée... Thierry Joigny Chaque jeudi à 20h

In this first installment of our conversation with Greg Taylor, Ian Priston explores what it means to remember a cultural moment from the inside, not as nostalgia, but as lived perception. Greg reconstructs his introduction to Pink Floyd through a series of encounters: a poster on King's Road, the underground press, the first shock of a single, and the genuinely unfamiliar experience of the Floyd's early vision performed amid kinetic sculpture and liquid light. Rather than treating Syd Barrett era Floyd as a set of canonical artefacts, Greg's incredible recollections move between the tangible (equipment, ticketing, sight-lines and the physical layout of venues) as well as the interpretative (Barrett's “painterly” logic in sound, the band's rejection of conventional stage charisma and the early tension between pop, mainstream visibility and avant-garde intent). Part 1 ends with the story still in motion, moving towards Greg's attendance of a five-man Floyd Concert in January 1968 and the next phase of the group's evolution. Part 2 arrives next month, so stay tuned!Subscribe for more, and share your own recollections or questions in the comments.
Pink Floyd recorded several seminal albums during the 1970's. They were on the cutting edge of recording technology and had an advance lighting system for their live performances, which they added other props to enhance their live show presentation. But before they became known as a great live attraction with impressive recordings, there was a period where the band was trying to find their own identity after original singer and songwriter, Syd Barrett left the band. It was a period of sonic experimentation and concept development. Roger Waters stepped up to be the band's lyricist while the others developed the music. It was both a creative time and also and eccentric time for the band musically. These are select tracks from this period before they recorded their great album "Dark Side of The Moon".

SUBSCRIBE TO IMPOSSIBLE WAY OF LIFE ON PATREON TO ACCESS FULL EPISODE https://www.patreon.com/animpossiblewayoflifeFloyd February carries on with our take on a record that sees a great band at a crossroads and, quite possibly, on the verge of collapse. Listening to this album is like hearing the group navigate a future without their spiritual leader, principal songwriter and frontman, Syd Barrett. Spoiler alert: It turned out alright for them in the end.
We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, CONCACAF Champions Cup, and World Cup football chat and interviews. What a week it's been in Whitecapsland. Captain Ryan Gauld has undergone surgery, players have been added, players have departed, and the stadium issues the 'Caps have been having came very much to the fore on Friday, casting concern and doubt over the club's future in Vancouver. We delve into all of that and hear from CEO Axel Schuster. We've two feature interviews for you this episode and first up is Whitecaps gaffer Jesper Sorensen in our first chat with him of 2026.

Lo primero, una advertencia: fans acríticos del Dark side of the moon deberían mantenerse alejados de este capítulo. Con la excusa de hablar de la locura de Syd Barrett, Kiko Amat realiza un panegírico a los primeros Pink Floyd (hasta el The Piper at the gates of dawn, ni un disco más), explica en detalle la psicodelia inglesa (citando de numerosas fuentes), vacía sus intestinos sobre el resto de miembros del grupo (Gilmour and Waters killed Barrett) y, al final sí, explica la fritura cerebral del genio inglés y su desaparición de la vida pública. Benja Villegas, cuando llega su turno, relata la progresiva ida de pinza del actor Ezra Miller, y también del boxeador Jack la Motta. El capítulo concluye con un jocoso Top 10 de transtornos psiquiátricos friquísimos (del Koro al Munchausen, pasando por el Alien Hand Syndrome) y un repaso a dos manos de varios Locos Locales de Ripollet y Sant Boi.
Robyn Hitchcock turned 14 in 1967, the year that blew his musical mind open. This English boarding school student and future singer-songwriter-musician already looked to Bob Dylan for the meaning of life when along came the psychedelic train powered by the Beatles, the Syd Barrett-led Pink Floyd, the Jimi Hendrix Experience, the Kinks, the Incredible String Band and much more. Hitchcock reflects on his awakening with a vivid memoir, 1967: How I Got There and Why I Never Left, and a mostly acoustic, mostly covers album, 1967: Vacations in the Past. Here we bat around perhaps the most creatively explosive year in the rock era, and he applies his whirligig mind to such questions as whether the music of 1967 would have had such an outsized impact on his own music if not for where, how and at what age he experienced it. He also discusses the newly remixed, remastered version of his 1988 album Globe of Frogs.
Steff, Milo, and Ram discuss the fruit of victory at Selhurst Park, ponder the concept of being managed by Syd Barrett, Lemmy, or Burnstein & Mensch, muse over whether we are miserable bastards, discuss the mighty Archie Gray, pontificate on the importance of inches, and find time to compare our current state to literature!

Toronto, ON – Canadian singer and guitarist C.ROSS (Chad Ross) has announced his new solo record Future Site of C.ROSS, out October 22nd, 2025 on Atlanta's Echodelick Records. Ross has long been a fixture in Canada's psych and indie-rock underground. Known as the singer/guitarist for heavy psych rockers Quest for Fire (Tee Pee Records), space rock explorers Comet Control (Tee Pee), and as a member of the legendary garage rock band The Deadly Snakes (In The Red), Ross has also toured internationally with Vancouver's Pink Mountaintops and released acoustic-driven solo work as Nordic Nomadic (Blue Fog, Tee Pee). On Future Site of C.ROSS, Ross leans deeper into his unique blend of fuzzy psych-folk and cosmic rock, pairing raw songwriting with expansive production. The 7-song album was recorded, produced, and mixed by Joshua Wells (Destroyer, Lightning Dust, Black Mountain) at The Mango Pit in Chicago, with Wells also contributing drums and keys. Additional recording and production were handled by Ross in Muskoka, Ontario. Guest musicians include Aaron Goldstein (pedal steel) and Eiyn Sof (backing vocals). “I started working on the songs for this record right after Skull Creator was released in 2022,” says Ross. “The tail end of the pandemic was on the horizon and I was still in hermit mode with my acoustic guitar, living in the woods in Ontario with my family. This is the second record I've done with Josh Wells. I flew down to Chicago with a handful of acoustic songs and we managed to put everything together rather quickly at his studio. We worked at it over a year, sending ideas back and forth from Chicago to my studio in Ontario. What transpired was a really nice extension of the first record.” With echoes of Judee Sill, Duke Garwood, Syd Barrett, and Dead Meadow, Future Site of C.ROSS is both grounded and cosmic – balancing fuzzed-out riffs, pedal steel textures, and delicate acoustics. The lead single “Plant Your Eyes” is described by Ross as: “…about the things your eyes can't see. The constant vibration of the unknown. It's kind of this absurd idea that your eyes can be thought of as seeds, that grow colourful light. I tried to channel some deep Crazy Horse fuzzed-out riffage and some delicate acoustics – all the ingredients for a healthy garden.” D I S C O V E R Bandcamp: https://nxnx.bandcamp.com/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/cxrossx?igsh=MWdoM2Y5bm1oaGxkYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmYibPZPqsM6tp6c5gVTpgSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/artist/2NSh2rOc62ImboBTgowQMg Checkout my YouTube Channel with long form interviews from the Subversives | the History of Lowest of the Low. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuxFWKuRdmn9j8UTW6AHwS_fAlso my Weekly Tour Vlog is up an live on the YouTubeshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuwphwhc4zd0VgY66f1OUQZp Pledge monthly with Patreon https://www.patreon.com/apologueShop Apologue products at http://apologue.ca/shopCheck out new Four Square Here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/brighton-beach-ephttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/seven-oh-sevenhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/industry-at-home–21st-anniversary-remix-remasteredhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/when-weeks-were-weekends

"Wish You Were Here" von Pink Floyd erschien im Jahr 1975. Es ist ein Konzeptalbum, das noch heute mit seinen großartigen Klangwelten, dem aufwändigen Produktionsprozess und einer spannenden Entstehungsgeschichte beeindruckt. Thematisch geht es um Verlust, Entfremdung, Wiederannäherung und um die Kritik am seelenlosen Musikbusiness. Obwohl die Urteile zum Album erstmal nicht so positiv waren, führte es nach seiner Veröffentlichung europaweit die Charts an und wurde in den USA und Großbritannien mit Gold ausgezeichnet. "Wish You Were Here" ist der Nachfolger des Erfolgsalbums "The Dark Side Of The Moon". Kein Wunder, dass sie während der Aufnahmen in den berühmten Abbey Road Studios unter sehr großem Druck standen. Meilensteine Redakteur Stephan Fahrig erklärt dazu, dass Pink Floyd zu Beginn erst mal gar nichts hinbekommen haben. Sie waren noch ziemlich müde, uninspiriert und haben sich oft gestritten. Sänger Roger Waters hatte schließlich die Idee, ein weiteres Konzeptalbum zu erschaffen. Einige Songs wurden dem ehemaligen Mitbegründer Syd Barrett gewidmet, der Pink Floyd 1968 wegen psychischer Probleme verlassen musste. Apropos Syd Barrett: Der erste und letzte Song des Albums, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", ist eine Hommage an den 2006 verstorbenen Sänger und Gitarristen. Während der Aufnahme spielte sich eine ziemlich tragische Begebenheit ab. Barrett erschien eines Tages im Studio, doch die Band erkannte ihn zunächst nicht. Er hatte sich den Kopf und die Augenbrauen abrasiert und wirkte völlig verändert. Der Moment war zutiefst emotional; Roger Waters und David Gilmour brachen sogar in Tränen aus. Zu dieser Zeit kämpfte Barrett bereits stark mit seinen psychischen Problemen, die durch seinen LSD-Konsum noch verschärft wurden. "Wish You Were Here" hat Pink Floyd auf eine ganz neue Entwicklungsebene gebracht. Die Band entfernte sich ein Stück weit von den Synthesizerflächen und näherte sich dem rockigeren Sound an, den wir später auf "The Wall" hören sollten. Gleichzeitig besitzt das Album eine zeitlose Klangästhetik, was es bis heute so faszinierend und beliebt macht. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Wish You Were Here" wird im Podcast gesprochen (19:30) – "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"(46:50) – "Welcome To The Machine"(53:00) – "Have A Cigar"(01:04:33) – "Wish You Were Here" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/pink-floyd-wish-you-were-here __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

In this episode of Fingal's Cave, host Ian Priston talks with Steve Anderson - creator of the iconic Floydboots website, visited over a million times by collectors, and author of the 2024 book Wizardo: Stories of a Bootlegger.Steve reflects on five decades of Pink Floyd: from being a 12-year-old at Wembley Empire Pool in November 1974 and the heartbreak of his prized Stoke bootleg being broken - to the challenge of hunting down and thrill of listening to rare titles. He recalls leaving home at 3am from Knebworth 1975, the ferocity and spectacle of the Animals tour, the monumental experience of The Wall shows, and meeting the band at the premiere of The Wall film.Steve also shares two extraordinary encounters with Syd Barrett in the 1990s - fleeting but unforgettable glimpses of the band's elusive founding genius. Along the way, he discusses Barrett superfan the late Bernard White, the legacy of John Wizardo, his adventures as a record dealer, and the time he was offered Roger Waters' Live at Pompeii bass. It is a fascinating story of how a lifetime can be shaped by music, soundtracked by Pink Floyd. This episode is in stereo - because, well, it just had to be. And if you think you hear a fly buzzing, dogs wanting attention, or even church bells chiming in the distance… you are not imagining things. Consider them accidental Pink Floyd–style sound effects.Subscribe to Fingal's Cave for more journeys to the edges of Pink Floyd music history.
It's hard to imagine being in Pink Floyd in 1975. 1973's Dark Side of the Moon had not only achieved high praise from the critics but had sold better than most any album ever recorded. Nick Mason, Rick Wright, Roger Waters and David Gilmour had soared to extraordinary heights thanks to their balance of technological experimentation, their examination of modern capitalistic life and Waters' biting lyrics. They had plenty of money and adoring fans. The only worry was what to do next. For months they noodled around Abbey Road Studios (EMI Studio at the time) trying to find new inspiration; apparently while they drank each other under the table. Engineers and producers were sacked in an attempt to capture their greatness and harness all the capabilities of the latest available technology. Out of that came Wish You Were Here - an album that may not receive the praise (or sales) of Dark Side or The Wall but is perhaps their most listenable effort of the 1970s and a favorite among Gilmour and Wright. The very progressive and Floydian suite Shine On You Crazy Diamond Parts 1-5 start the album by creating an atmosphere of awe and wonder. Waters lyrics describe their former bandmate Syd Barrett; their former leader who had lost a battle with his own schizophrenia which led to the boys not encountering him for 7 years. However, in an odd twist of fate Syd made it to EMI during the mixing of the album with a shaved head, shaved eyebrows and weighing more than double than when they'd last seen him. It all adds to the mystery and legacy of Syd and Pink Floyd. Before the 6-9 suite of Crazy Diamond, we are treated to some wonderful Pink Floyd classics. Welcome to the Machine offers mechanical noises and dismal lyrics to not only warn of but welcome the new entries into the military industrial complex. The acoustic Wish You Were Here is a sweet yet remorseful song about lost friendship and the unfortunate changes that come with growing up and growing old. Have A Cigar is a very cheeky view of the music business but as neither Waters or Gilmour could quite pull off the right tone, they employed old friend Roy Harper to provide the vocals. All three are classic rock staples and songs the band would perform together and as solo artists throughout their careers. Often overlooked compared to the other Floyd output of the 1970s, we find this has aged well, is still very listenable and is as poignant as ever 50 years later.

In this episode of the Fingal's Cave Podcast, host Nils Zehnpfennig and guests Mike McCartney, Joe Krist and special guest Bjorn Riis from Gilmourish.com celebrate 40 years of David Gilmour's live performances.We begin by exploring Bjorn's musical background and the influence of Gilmour, Pink Floyd, and other bands on his sound. We then trace the evolution of Gilmour's tone, gear and style throughout his solo career and his time with Pink Floyd from 1968 to 1994.We start the discussion with Gilmour's 1978 debut and his decision not to tour. We then take an in-depth look at the About Face tour in 1984 and reflect on the chaotic Ecomundo show in Colombia in 1992.We also revisit the acclaimed On an Island tour of 2006, discussing the stellar band, the wonderful set list, and the unforgettable performance of 'Echoes'.A decade later, Gilmour returned with Rattle That Lock. We explore the differences between that tour and the one in 2006, including the surprise mid-tour line-up changes, and we discuss the somewhat underwhelming Pompeii shows in 2016.Finally, we talk about his latest album, Luck and Strange, and the short tour that followed. We also reflect on his four decades of live music and celebrate a legendary career that continues to inspire many of us.
Pink Floyd's original frontman, Syd Barrett, did so much LSD that he experienced a mental breakdown just as the band began to achieve mainstream success. His drug use began as mind-altering inspiration for his art, but quickly became a coping mechanism for the demands of commercial success. He became paralyzed in front of television cameras. He detuned his guitar until it was literally unplayable and refused to perform alongside his band. Then he stopped showing up at all.

Before the internet, it was reasonably easy to just disappear. Get a fake ID, leave the country with some cash, and you were gone. These kinds of mysteries can also be found in the world of music; artists who disappear without a trace…and I'm not talking about musicians who retired and then become recluses…there are plenty of those. We haven't seen much of Steve Perry since he left Journey…he's very much alive but isn't interested in being famous anymore…Syd Barrett tripped out on too much LSD, got fired from Pink Floyd, and was rarely seen by anyone until he died of cancer in 2006…John Deacon of Queen gave up his music career after Freddie Mercury died…we haven't seen anything of him. Then there are the musicians who disappeared involuntarily…one day they were here and the next day, they were just gone…and this has happened a lot more than you may realize. This is episode 43 of “Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry”…and the next of this program is “Missing and Presumed Dead”. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Lee Harris, the founder and guitarist of the successful band ‘Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secret' was our first interview guest almost two years ago. We had an exciting conversation back then and we knew we wanted to invite him back to our podcast.Now, 25 episodes later, the time has finally come, Lee Harris is back!Together with Phil Salathé, in this episode we talk about Lee's youth, his own career as co-manager and guitarist of the band ‘Ian Dury and the Blockheads' and the musical development of Pink Floyd between the years 1967 and 1972, an era they cover with the 'Saucers'.Lee also gives us a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the band, describing the conditions under which the songs were chosen and why Echoes came so late in the setlist.Look forward to a lively conversation between two full-blooded musicians and some great and nerdy insights...(On a personal note, to our knowledge Pink Floyd performed 'The Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast' four times during the UK leg of their British Winter Tour in 1970.)
Face the Music: An Electric Light Orchestra Song-By-Song Podcast
After releasing one of the most influential albums in history Pink Floyd found itself without its guiding light, Syd Barrett. With new guitarist David Gilmour, the band was tasked with recording a follow-up to The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. In 1968 they released A Saucerful of Secrets which, though it was largely made without Barrett's involvement, so continued in the spirit of what he had started.

Sign Up for the Boston Listener Meet Up Joe Boyd was there when Dylan went electric, when Pink Floyd was born, and when Paul Simon brought Graceland to the world. But far from being just another music industry insider, Boyd has spent decades exploring how the world's musical traditions connect and transform each other. His new book And the Roots of Rhythm Remain, is seventeen years in the making, and is in Tyler's words “the most substantive, complete, thorough, and well-informed book on world music ever written.” From producing Albanian folk recordings to discovering the hidden links between Mississippi Delta blues and Indian classical music, Boyd's journey reveals how musical innovation often emerges when traditions collide. He joins Tyler to discuss why Zulu music became politically charged in South Africa, what makes Albanian choral music distinct from Bulgarian polyphony, what it was like producing Toots and the Maytals, his role in the famous "Dueling Banjos" scene in Deliverance, his work with Stanley Kubrick on A Clockwork Orange, his experiences with Syd Barrett and Pink Floyd, how he shaped R.E.M.'s sound on Fables of the Reconstruction, what really happened when Dylan went electric at Newport, how the Beatles integrated Indian music, what makes the Kinshasa guitar sound impossible to replicate, and how he maintains his collection of 6,000 vinyl LPs and 30,000 CDs, what he'll do next, and more.
