Customer Reviews of Wish You Were Here
No one Can Come Close to This Masterpiece This is the best album the Floyd has ever made. One of their most best produced and the one that really shines on their musicianship. Wish You Were Here I read was one of their most difficult albums to make the band was burnt out on tour,no one was interested in doing anything and production on the album took forever. But what came out was lush music with no one can top. Shine on You Crazy Diamond 1 and 2 are probably the best songs. The opening droning synth and blues guitar duet is nice nice and comforting then Glimour pulls out this rift called Syd's Theme and the band build-up around that playing faster till the drums start up and there is this great hypnotic jam with Glimour giving more gritty solos. Then Waters dilivers the vocals with back-up singers and the end product is a arpagiatted version of Syd's Theme with Dick Perry soloing. The membrable Weolcome to the Machine is next with a dark opening that turns into a synth filled song. The song deals with the recording industry (the machine) as an evil that just ruins bands buissness like what happen to Badfinger. The next song features something the band has never done have a guest vocalist come and sing. Roy Harper does that job and does a fine job too. The song has got a funky guitar to it that make you what to scream. Their best known song is next Wish You Were Here with Glimours best vocal performance and Wrights most beautiful piano work in a while. Suprisingly the lyric were written before Dark Side. The wind comes howlin to Shine on You Crazy Diamond 2 with is the best jam the Floyd has done since Ummagamma the live section. The thick bass and drums are the perfect background for the screaming cersendoing slide guitar. When that dies down we go back to a short lyric part to for there last farewell Syd, and the song turns into this funky jazz tingled jam with Waters holding a good slap bass groove and some terrfic rhymic guitar. Then Wright gives a good ending with a soaring finale featuring keyboard galore. If you don't have this album you are missing out on historical musicianship.
a brilliant follow up to Dark Side....
Probably the most melodic Floyd album. The band members collaborated on the music, and it shows. The lush keyboards of Rick Wright and the bluesy guitar of David Gilmour, while seemingly at odds, mesh quite well . The lyrics are at times incredibly cynical ( especially on "Have A Cigar" a diatribe against the music business and "Welcome to the Machine" which makes the listener for once feel a bit of pity for the mega rich rock star, no small feat in itself) and at times quite sentimental ( the title track, split into two different sections, is an affectionate ode to Syd Barrett, their leader in the very early days of the Floyd.) Another great Floyd album.Essential. I think it's my favourite.
Sleepytime music for wankers
