Free Music Review: Not a Full Show
Hit: 4 Stars
This 2 CD set is not a full show but a mix of performances and what seems to be some bonus tracks not included on the original collection of Live shows released in 2000 by mail order only.
Blue Floyd was an attempt to bring a new look to Pink Floyd music with the Jam Band treatment, full shows where released on the Blue Floyd website (now defunct and owned by Pink Floyd fans) but were quickly sold out and became highly collectible. After Allen Woody's untimely death they disbanded leaving only the live shows behind for us to enjoy.
These shows were a bit rough with no overdubs, no frills... you heard it like it happened, all had extended solos by each member like the rock shows of old.
This "sampler" will have to do as a record of this bands efforts, and it's really too bad, because the shows were meant to be listened to as a whole, just as a Pink Floyd show is performed, with each song, each idea flowing to the next. The problem remains... finding the original shows, out of print for about eight years as of this review, but well worth the effort, and while you are looking, you might also enjoy the night Blue Floyd showed up and did 2+ hours of The Beatles!
Begins Poster
BLUE FLOYD endeavors to deconstruct the classic compositions of the legendary PINK FLOYD into their primal, elemental form. As much an homage to the influence of Howlin' Wolf, Willie Dixon and Muddy Waters as a rediscovery of both FLOYD classics and rarities, BLUE FLOYD plays iconoclastically familiar songs, heard again as if for the first time.BEGINS features the original BLUE FLOYD line-up of Allen Woody (Gov't Mule / Allman Brothers Band), Matt Abts (Gov't Mule / Dickey Betts Band), Marc Ford (The Black Crowes / Burning Tree), Johnny Neel (The Allman Brothers Band), Berry Oakley Jr. (Robby Krieger / Bloodline).
