Roger Waters, bass, vocals, acoustic guitars and vocals on "Grantchester Meadows", all vocals on "Several Species of Small Furry Animals." Nick Mason, drums, percussion, effects on "The Grand Vizier's Garden Party" parts 1 & 2 Roger Waters' "Grantchester Meadows" was a lyrical folk-like number unlike almost anything else the group ever did." (Bruce Eder, AMG)ĭavid Gilmour, lead guitar, vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, keyboards, drums and vocals on "The Narrow Way" The studio LP was more experimental, each member getting a certain amount of space on the record to make his own music - Richard Wright's "Sysyphus" was a pure keyboard work, featuring various synthesizers, organs, and pianos David Gilmour's "The Narrow Way" was a three-part instrumental for acoustic and electric guitars and electronic keyboards, and Nick Mason's "The Grand Vizier's Garden Party" made use of a vast range of acoustic and electric percussion devices. "Astronomy Domine," "Careful with That Axe Eugene," "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun," and "A Saucerful of Secrets" are all superior here to their studio originals, done longer, louder, and harder, with a real edge to the playing. They also sound like they've got the amplifiers to make their music count, which is more than the early band had. Featuring the band's second lineup (i.e., no Syd Barrett), the set shows off a very potent group, their sound held together on-stage by Nick Mason's assertive drumming and Roger Waters' powerful bass work, which keep the proceedings moving no matter how spaced out the music gets. The live set, recorded in Birmingham and Manchester in June 1969, is limited to four numbers, all drawn from the group's first two LPs or their then-recent singles. "For many years, this double-album was one of the most popular albums in Pink Floyd's pre-Dark Side of the Moon output, containing a live album and a studio album for the price of one. Live tracks include Careful With That Axe, Eugene and Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, while studio tracks include Grantchester Meadows and The Narrow Way. One album features Pink Floyd’s then-current live set, while the second album includes solo compositions and performances by each member of the band. This was the band’s first double album and has one of their most iconic cover images.
