Pink Floyd - 'Astronomy Domine' 1967 (plus funny interview)

submitted by bamdrew

1 decade 6 years ago

Intro'ed by one of the squarest assholes who has ever lived, the original Pink Floyd (w/Syd Barrett) do their progressive rock-psychedelic thing on some show called 'Look of the Week'.

I shouldn't be so mean; I really enjoyed the interviewer by the end of it. He's like a bizarro MTV interviewer.

"Why has it all got to be so terribly loud? For me frankly its too loud, I just can't bare it."

Man, what a flamin' a**hole host. The Floyd showed great restraint.

One of my favorite among their earlier songs

"I don't want to prejudice you [but they're repetitive and boring]"

But you don't want to prejudice anyone, right.

"Perhaps I'm a little bit too much of a musician to fully appreciate them"

What a passive-aggressive pillock. Well, here we are decades later, still listening to them. I don't think anyone remembers this guy's string quartet ensemble with much fondness.

Moving this video to bamdrew's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 3 days.
