Zabriskie Point, Love scene v.4 – Richard Wright

Puno su toga napravili, puno para zaradili i onda su ih pare posvadile pa godinama umjesto da snimaju oni se dure. Eto kako je život sjeban, 15 godina su izgubiš na durenje i onda te jednog dana više nema. I što si napravio da ostane iza tebe? Milijuni? Ne, to nikog ne zanima, ono što ostane je muzika, a muzike fali… jedno 15 godina…
Izgleda da sve umjetnike treba držati na granici egzistencije jer čim zarade neku lovu… ode sve u mp3… bolje da mi sve prebacimo u mp3… :-D
Šteta ali i ovo je puno što su ipak napravili…
The Pink Floyd made millions in the ’70s, with which they bought suites in the islands of Greek and developed expensive hobbies, such collecting cars (Mason), guitars (Gilmour), impressionist paintings (Waters) and antiques (Wright). But, like many other stars who didn’t learn in the `London School of Economics,’ their financial matters were handled by the wrong people, and in the late ’70s their accountancy company collapsed together with most of their investments, as well as the relationship between Roger Waters and Rick Wright, until Waters left the band.
After four years of solo records and a legal struggle between Waters and the other three concerning the use of the name `Pink Floyd’ (Waters lost), three- quarters of the band became active again, recording and performing. Some of the fans thought that, without Waters, it’s not it anymore. But the four albums released since then, including two double live ones, the videos, and the tours which always included the hits from Waters’ days – all these had tremendous success and proved that this band, even without Roger Waters and even when the term `progressive rock’ is considered outdated, still has millions of fans.
Q: Barrett is undoubtedly the dark side of the Pink Floyd, but your quarrel with Waters is just as dark. How, actually, do two people who know each other from childhood, fight about music?
Rick: It’s a story that I’m not really happy to get into. We fought during `The Wall,’ which was an album Waters wrote, based on his family story, we clashed long before that, during the period of the Dark Side and `Wish You Were Here.’ Actually, we never got along. But it was in `The Wall’ that Roger really lost his mind. He was convinced that he is Pink Floyd and that he doesn’t need me nor Nick Mason. I wasn’t in a state to argue about that, because we were financially ruined. I made a decision and left, and then he left, and I came back. Since then, he’s mad at all of us.
Q: And you haven’t spoken since then?
Rick: We’re not speaking for 14 years. Since `The Wall.’ David Gilmour doesn’t speak to him either. We had a legal quarrel with him concerning the name Pink Floyd, and in the end we were left with the name, and he was left with the Wall. But if I see him tomorrow in the street, I think I’ll make contact with him and invite him to a drink. I’m interested in knowing how he feels and what he thinks about the band.
Q: Is there any chance that Waters might ever return to the band?

“The chorus came from a school in Islington, England, and was chosen because it was close to the studio. It was made up of 23 kids between the ages of 13 and 15. They were overdubbed 12 times, making it sound like there were many more kids.
Their producer, Bob Ezrin, had the idea for the chorus. He used a choir of kids when he produced Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out” in 1972. Ezrin liked to use children’s voices on songs about school.
There was some controversy when it was revealed that the chorus was not paid. It also didn’t sit well with teachers that kids were singing an anti-school song. The chorus was given recording time in the studio in exchange for their contribution; the school received 1000 pounds and a platinum record.”
Umjesto da je svako dijete dobilo po 1000 funti ovi su bili toliko škrti da su cijeloj školi dali 1000 funti….. ma mogli su oni zaposliti male kineze, bolje bi prošli ;))

Da, to je kad ti lova udari u glavu. Zato umjetnike treba sve pokrasti da jedva preživljavaju… Nekako u toj situaciji imaju kakav-takav osjećaj za ostatak svijeta. Sve ostalo hje čista komercijala… kuruza… hehe… kukuruz… Monsanto… :-)
