It's a waltz, no?

is that 5/4?

I thought it was 1, 2, 3 - 1, 2, 3 etc...

A waltz is indeed 3/4 time. yes

It's nearly over.

It is over.

Its over!

Well, I honesty think I'd only ever want to listen to the last two tracks ever again.

And then, not that often. Side 1 was freakin' terrible.

I felt that was an album made by musicians, rather than songwriters and that it was the sort of album people make when they've not yet found themselves.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

That last bit was indeed very like 67-69 live Pink Floyd.

Unfortunately we weren't all at a gig in 1968 on brown acid digging the liquid light shows and Azimuth Co-ordinator sound system. sad yes

There's a Who live album from about 68 where they're totally 'inspired' by the early Pink Floyd sound.

Apparently Keith Moon slagged off G,G&F single in the Melody Maker. Good for him.
