Question To Guitar Players

a whammy pedal? wow you just made my night. i know what im going to buy next.....

I like playing Young Lust (there's one lick in the guitar solo I only get right about once out of every twenty times I play it...but when I do get it right, it's such a buzz,) Time, Have A Cigar...sometimes when I'm with a group of people and an acoustic pops up, I'll play WYWH...rythym AND lead. Obviously you can't play both completely at the same time, but it's still pretty impressive to the layperson when you pull it off.

WYWH, SOYCD, Time, Money, CN, ABITW (P2), GBS, DLMN, ITAOT, RLH, LTF, WDYWFM, HH, etc.... A lot of Gilmours parts are very hard to play (especially the intro to WYWH). It's not that he's a virtuoso, it's just that you can play the notes he plays but you can't sound like him. Brilliant!

buy all of the stuff on the link below, and you can sould like Dave all day long hheehe. im saving up.....someday damnit......someday.

When I'm playing guitar at parties, "Wish You Were Here" is probably the first Pink Floyd song to get requested. It's a crowd pleaser, as everyone tries to sing along.

I like to play "Comfortably Numb", also, but do it a bit different than the record. As a solo acoustic guitarist, it is more entertaining (for me) to drop the key down a whole step, and speed up the tempo.

who can tell me what dave uses on the 'divebombing bird' sound section in 'Echoes' the song? slide? e-bow? ive got the delay pedal set right, but what in the world does he use to make the squealing last for so long? is that the whammy pedal too?

does anyone manage to play the dogs rythm guitar and sing along with it ?
i simply can't - i'm not a singer but i always try to sing along with difficult guitar rhytms
i believe roger is able to do it because if i remember right he always played the rhytm guitar on dogs during the in the flesh-tour

Yes Alf, It can be done... It's quite a tricky rhythm anyway, but you need to to master it first then (and only then) try adding the vocals. Its all about rubbing your head and patting your tummy at the same time - COORIDINATION!!

Keep workin' on it-you'll get it!!

Cheers,

Jeff

Roger has a rhythm guitarist play/sing it on the "In The Flesh" video/dvd. check it out. his name I cant recall.

Jon Carin

It was just feedback while he had his wah plugged in backwards.


I like Is There Anybody Out There?. It's not too hard to play and a nice tune.

I thought he was the second keyboardist on P.U.L.S.E.

He probably was. I'm pretty sure he's played with both Gilmour and Rog.

i like playing set the controls for the heart of the sun by myself... maybe just becuase it's nice and easy. SOYCD is good when you do it like Dave does on his DVD too...

I like playing Wish You Were Here and Coming Back to life (especially the intro,but the two other solos as well). SOYCD from time to time as well. I mostly play my own blues imitations,which are needless to say, lousy.
