Pink Floyd Yet Another Doc Interviews (2008) 

Love 'Wish you were here' but love the fact that Sid said it sounds old😂

All that you touch all that you see is all your life will ever be

pink Floyd is my fav band

This doc is obviously biased and full of bs (as well as factually incorrect in several parts). Roger most definitely did not spit on a fan because he requested a song. It was because the idiot kept setting of fireworks and climbing on the fence separating the stage, which Roger had requested several times for people to stop doing, Still not very diplomatic, but no where near the same thing.

Finally, an unbiased Floyd doc that shares the credit for their success, instead of simply catering, like Rolling Stone mag, to Waters' ridiculous claims to full credit for himself.

Great Documentary. One thing, lol, after Live 8 the band was offered a quarter of a billion dollars to tour, not a quarter of a million. lol. They were offered something like $350 million.

Besides the Beatles.. Pink Floyd is my favourite band. Absolutely brilliant. Better than Zeppelin, better than any 70s band.👍🏻 Rest easy Syd and Rick 🙏🏻🎸🎹

David didn’t meet Roger til 1967 even though they grew up in Cambridge

"With Meddle, Pink Floyd were just hitting their stride. Their next album would change rock history forever." Obscured by Clouds?

This documentary has forget the first album from Pink Floyd after Syd Barrett, A Saucerful og Secrets, where Syd has a song and plays guitar on the album’s two other songs. The second album contains music from the film More, the second album after Syd, and the first album without him. Ummagumma is the third album. Trond Larsen, Norway

A very nicely done documentary. All aspects included. No hold backs. I very much enjoyed and learned an incredible volume of information. The stream practically flawless. Keep on. Keep on.

No dude. I see why you all don't like Arnold Layne and the like but 'interstellar overdrive and Astronomy Domine' are way ahead! Waters is a hell of a writer and visionary no doubt-- but Syd started that whole landscape

apparently these guys are mind readers

Thank you to all the Pink Floyd fans who suggested titles for this RARE,STUDIO BOOTLEG from '69. This song; 1. Was around 6 minutes long and was sung by,I believe Roger 2. It featured an upbeat renissance-like organ melody which sounded like a psychedelic WALTZ and a trippy middle 8 guitar solo with wah-wah and distorted sounds 3. The lyrics were of one's reminiscing of a young love with movements captured in time and still flowing in his mind This song wasn't "summer of '68". It was UP-TEMPO which Floyd did from time to time in the early days. If anyone recognizes the description of the above song,please feel free to offer more title suggestions Thanks!❤

They say DSOTM follows Meddle... What about Obscured By Clouds? That was important as well.

Wasn't it Waters who used to play with his back to the audience, not Gilmour? You can even see it in the pic when they're talking about it!

They got rid of Syd because they wanted to go mainstream rather than Syd losing it on acid.a convenient excuse and that's why they really feel so bad

I wonder where Pink Floyd would have gotten if Syd had stayed with them. It's certainly a very sad story.

5:53-5:54 fantastic stuff. Really gets you inspired

Much more details on Syd ... it was very sad ... I think Roger is a better person than he is thought to be . Sometimes he rubbed people in the wrong way even if his intentions weren't bad . He regretted some of things he did such suing his bandmates later ...

Besides Alice In Chains I have never been more fascinated with a band than P.F. After 35+ yrs as a fan I am still obsessed with there music and the actual history of the band. I was watching a 2014 interview with David and he was lookin old- Roge still looks good but I really think they should re-unite and I am completely against rock bands re-uniting but P.F. would def be worth seeing, come on Dave it's Roger's band anyway.

I like this DOC, but they go from 1984 to 2005 in less than a minute. and it was a quarter of a BILLION not million to tour in 06'

The style of the band at this point was heavily indebted to the first Pink Floyd album, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, but filtered through their own color spectrum. The Pink Floyd connection went beyond mere sonic hat tipping, since Alice Cooper played host to Pink Floyd on the British band's first U.S. tour. “We were the house band at the Cheetah for a period of time in ’67,” Smith recalls. “One of the perks was we could go see any of the bands playing there. Pink Floyd were there one week. I remember the first or second song they played, Syd went up to sing and boom! A spark came from the microphone and hit his lip. He just put his arms down to his sides, backed about a foot away from the stand and just stood there like a statue for the rest of the night. After the show, they came back to our house and partied with us all night long. Syd walked in like a zombie. He didn’t talk to anybody, he just stood there. He seemed a bit psychotic, and the mass quantities of LSD certainly didn’t help.” Read More: Alice Cooper Drummer Neal Smith Recalls the Early Days | ultimateclassicrock.com/alice-cooper-neal-smith-interview-2018/?

Syd Barrett was such a gorgeous looking young man as was David Gilmore

There are many errors in this documentary - I would not recommend it.

The whole story told by Excellence,their story needs to be the creation of a kind of music style called Simply :Pink Floyd Sad the end Syd and later on with Dave the talent took place and the way to the world top Band is something natural. Great music 🎶

Come on, the band buried the hatchet in 2005. Gilmour and Waters have reconciled and Gilmour has appeared on Waters' shows a few times. Lets not keep the feud alive when it clearly isn't.

41:30 "they were offered 1/4 of a million dollars to tour again" surely that must be 250 million $

When David re employed Rick, he was paid $11,000 a week, quite a good wage in those days! and Roger firing Rick, back fired, as the other members lost money with the 'The Wall' tour, Rick was being paid salary, so he was the only member to gain financially.

I like Syd!

The photo of Syd at 03:45 is so haunting...

sid a friend of mine before my life time beginning of infinity chapter 8 tod

Flashing lights? NOOOO!!!!

I suspect Syd dabbled with heroin too. It was present even back then. When I learned John Lennon entered rehab in 74 for heroin. I was like damn. Who else was on it? Apparently A LOT were. Even James Taylor. He introduced Lennon to heroin.

I am a die hard fan of the floyd for years but recently ive had a change of heart regarding syd. Barret could write very catchy very English pop songs but he was primarily a visual artist. Roger sapped every bit of talent he could from syd before "forgetting" to pick him up for a gig. After cutting him out of the band guilt overwhelmed them so they put together a couple of compilation albums syd could get royalties from to stay financially sound. They (Roger and David )are still not welcome by the Barret family. Not hard to imagine when a bunch of non medical doctors (many who never met syd) are diagnosing syd as schizophrenic. This video really makes me sad for the Barret family. I know at least one commenter wasn't even born when Syd was at the height of popularity.

meddle darkside..what about obscured by clouds in between?

The members of Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin were brought to Earth from a far far greater galaxy than our own.

Hi everyone. I've been trying to get hold of the haunting guitar instrumental starting at time 27:18. Can anyone help with artist and name or where I can access this recording?

"After Live 8 they were offered a quarter of a MILLION dollars to tour." LOL could you imagine somebody approaching these guys and with a straight face offering them two hundred and fifty thousand dollars total to do a world tonsidering how rich these guys are?

I thought Gilmour's Parents went to Madison, Wi. To teach not New York when David and his Brother went to boarding school.

Had syd not got ill, they would have been bigger than the Beatles. .✌

At a certain point in a persons spiritual growth he starts to see how insane humanity is but he can't see that this insanity and shallowness is a reflection of himself ( himself being "the self" the essence of everything) and so he projects all the rage and anger onto 'others' which is reality is only his own unresolved issues. This is what was happening to Roger in the late 70's. These days he's much calmer and saner.

Pieter thats me

More than half this is involving Syd, even though his involvement in the band amounted to 2 years and 1 full album. I've always felt he was overated and the band went on to record what 13? more albums over 3 decades. Seems every doc I see about Floyd focuses so much on Syds minimal time as opposed to the vastness of the bands career.

what was the last floyd album sid wrote ?

R.I.P. London. Does anyone know how Cambridge is doing?

note that when journalists talk bout the 67' floyd they often forget to mention that the band were called freaks and hued everywhere they played but the UFO club. Many people who first heard them at the time said they thought some drunk has got up on stage doing rubbish random stuff and later realised it being a pink floyd gig. Nothing to lower their amazing artistic character though.

probably a bit unbalanced in relation to Roger, -but nothing overides his objecting to them using the name Pink Floyd after he left, as if Syd Barrett being so erratic justified keeping the name after its founder member left

What Roger should have let Rick Wright just hang around on the Greek island and not get back to work? Is that the message here?

after the break up ,David Gilmore showed the world who pink floyd really was ,with two solo albums. two awesome albums that were not promoted nearly enough.

No! Rodger gave up on Syd Barrett not pink Floyd, back then when they were young and naive, they didn't stand up to him. Rodger always has his knickers in a twist about something!!

lmfao

This is the worst Pink Floyd documentary that I've ever seen. There are a lot of factual errors. What a shame.

Video unbearably partisan... is It's ridiculous how they portray Waters in this documentary, something like a bully who just happened to have some good ideas, lucky enough to have Gilmour on his side to transform them on wonderful songs. I don't have time to stress all the inaccuracies, but I just notice one little thing: why every time they report about the problems and disagreements, voice is given ONLY to Gilmour and Wright and NEVER to Waters??

Sadly the only good pink floyd documentary I've seen is the story of wish you were here

David Gilmour a great songwriter?! lmao

Pieter Jenner

Roger Waters, an intelligent but over ambitious artist, wrote interesting lyrics, but as a musician, was very much aware of his limitations when compared to David GILMOUR’s musical genius. The latter, despite being shy and modest, was the MAIN drive behind the band’s enormous success in the 1970s. David’s very handsome looks, coupled with being a brilliant lead guitarist, a great vocalist and the main author of their music was simply TOO MUCH for Waters’ self-centered & aggressive alpha-male personality. Waters’ huge ego & controlling behavior made it impossible for him to co-exist on stage beside a man of such great talent. His unhealthy rivalry and jealousy ultimately destroyed the group.

Roger Waters's father didn't die before he was born, just when he was a baby

Nothing we already knew, told by heads who had nothing really to do with them

I took literally 100,s possibly 1000's of hits. How was this possible?iq. 138 last tested 8 yrs ago

Nothing wrong with syd barrett,he wanted to leave so he put on a different show,and he was a good actor,,i also would say these are not all the facts,roger waters knows the answer ,money say keeps you talking but in this case ,stopped you talking ,,what you see on documentarys and what oyu not see behind,waters was the one who was in control day one ,he did not give two hoots about barrett,at all.

The Pig Man could not have sold his word salad to the public if it were not organized into listenable tunes. How Dave was able to produce a song from all that incoherent jibberish is simply astonishing. Astonishing.

Worse...Floyd...Doc...Ever.

darkness and light to me - from one extreme to the next - if you ask me

More like "Pink Floyd : Yet another mediocre doc"! That was biased, incomplete & erroneous. I mean, they didn't even get all the DATES right. And on top of that they indulged into the most despicable shallow, stereotyped analysis of events. much thumbies downe.

Ok. Taking acid is not good for your health in general and for your mind in particular. No question... But why on earth only very few PF documentaries tells the truth about Syd Barrett? He developped schyzophrenia and yes, taking acid does not do any good, but he would have developped it anyway! Maybe a bit later but in the end it would have been the same. Two friends of mine were diagnosed with schyzophrenia. One was smoking pot and the other was absolutely straight and never even drank a beer but none of them were doing LSD. So this kind of poetic narration telling that "he has lost his mind in a flow of acid" or "they watched their good friend fade away in lysergic dreams" type of thing is completely biased (like most of this documentary by the way...) and is far from the reality of this terrible disease which has nothing romantic or poetic. Ask any psychiatrist. I'm not saying that LSD has nothing to do with that. I'm saying it's an accelerator that, in itself, does not contains the "germs of mental illness" so to speak...

It's kinda amazing the difference between their first album (Piper) and the rest...It seems when David GIlmore came into the picture their talent just skyrocketed. I do like Piper At The Gates Of Dawn...kinda....but it almost feels like an album that is trying it's hardest just to be psychedelic. The lyrics make no sense for the most part. A couple of the songs have a decent sound to them. I'm sure many will disagree with me, but that's the way it is with music.

26:33

funny how they screwed rick wright ,but he came out on top. lol. that's what ya get. karma's a bitch.

David was WAY more beautiful than Syd.

Roger Waters IS Pink Floyd, he knows he is 😊

Let me just say one more unrelated comment to all who read this. Stop with the hatred and demise. Terrible comments and attitude Try to be more constructive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No one is perfect..

because it was meant to be done challenge of the world and understanding of what is the sun temptation around and around the earth understanding of what is every sound vision infinity chapter 8 tod . . . . . . 8 happy or something like what ever it is what you want to do with everything everyone else who cares about it anymore and understanding the truth of what is non - sequenceual what ever never mind . . . yeah you see t o d infinity chapter 8

So biased...

MONEY RUINS MUSIC.............................

Wauw this is one *biased* "documentary" David, Nick, and Wright, couldn't write a song if their life depended on it. sure they can play their instruments (except for Nick, he weren't able to play the drums on Mother, Jeff Porcaro played the drums on Mother, due to the changing time signatures) Waters made *his* albums (Dark side, Wish you were here, Animals, The wall. He used the band members as 'hired musicians' ..After he left the band, there were no more Pink Floyd.

To me Roger Waters looks better than syd barret.
