England: Shine On You Crazy Diamonds ! – To All Animal Activists Everywhere.

Video Description: “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” is a nine-part Pink Floyd composition written by Roger Waters, Richard Wright and David Gilmour. It is a tribute to former band member Syd Barrett. The song was first performed on their 1974 French tour, and recorded for their 1975 concept album Wish You Were Here. The song was intended to be a side-long composition (like “Atom Heart Mother” and “Echoes”), but was ultimately split into two parts and used to bookend the album, with new material composed that was more relevant to this song, and to the situation in which the band found themselves.

Enjoy the video and superb music from one of the best.

See you tomorrow with some fresh posts;

Regards Mark
