The album was wrapped in black plastic so you couldn&#8217;t see the cover and came with a postcard. &#8220;Shine On You Crazy Diamond&#8221; is a tribute to Syd Barrett the former member who was let go because of mental problems. The 26 minute piece is broken into nine parts, I- V on side one and the remainder on side two.&#8221;Welcome To The Machine&#8221; also on side one has some awesome synthesizer at the end and is about the music industry. &#8220;Have A Cigar&#8221; sung by English Folkie Roy Harper is another song about the music industry while &#8220;Wish You Were Here&#8221; is possbly about Syd Barrett again. An amazing lbum right up there with Dark Side Of The Moon. I saw Pink Floyd at the Spectrum in June of &#8217;75 three months before the album was released. I don&#8217;t remember if the I had heard anything from the album before then but they played &#8220;Shine On You Crazy Diamond&#8221; andone other song from the record. The also played two new songs which were early versions of &#8220;Dogs&#8221; and &#8220;Sheep&#8221; from Animals.  They played the whole Dark Side Of The Moon album and &#8220;Echoes&#8221; for an encore.When they came back on stage after a brief exit and you heard that first ping of &#8220;Echoes&#8221; the crowd went crazy.One of the best shows I have been to with lots of lights,fog and a replica of a jet plane flying across the Spectrum,crashing into the wall and bursting into flames at some point during Dark Side Of The Moon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This album came out in September of 1975.
