Another Challenge - Pink Floyd

Post by Bg »

Seeing as Mr Gilmour and his little band won the NZGuitars Rock Poll last year, I thought we'd have a Floyd challenge :) Again, entries should be judged on merit of tone, mojo, stupidity of singing etc...

I'm not entering anything I've done before so its a proper challenge for me too ;)

Lets run this for a fortnight? Backing tracks available at all good branches of Farmers and 'I saw it on telly' stores, or dotted around the internet. I have a few good quality ones if you want to PM me with something specific. The backing track site I posted before is down at present - hopefully its not a biggie :(

Lets try and do these challenges frequently :) I think the next one should be the winner of this years poll, then something like a Metallica challenge
:twisted:

You need to have two tape echos feeding 40 foot of tape across the room into each other

I'll see if I can whip something up.

Is guitars and vocals only, sufficient?


I've never tried learning any pink floyd before. Hopefully it's not toooo hard

OK, then anyone know where I can download some talent?

Just checked out some PF tabs, and they look fairly challenging, despite Gilmours' non-shred approach. Bring on The Sweet challenge...
