MEDDLE

1 One Of These Days wind, a bass, the other on the other speaker, this keyboard, the drums in the distance, all that very far from everything but anchored in your memory; the guitar yes the one installed on a stand and which came out unbelievable sounds, it was Pink Floyd; ah this reverberation before its time, and we guessed that it was going to get worse, slowly but surely; and then the explosion what could be more natural this title, and one of my favorites still today 2 A Pillow Of Winds for the cheesy song, a piece of which I still do not understand the purpose, the meaning; yes a little tearful, yes a little melancholy, but hey the linear acoustics, I dodge 3 Fearless and here we go again; whispered voice, acoustic guitar, well a guitar pad that changes things a bit and the ending in chorus, ok but quite simple anyway, I don't like football 4 San Tropez ouh la but it's getting worse and worse, where has the prog, the psyche gone? A BEATLES-style song well no I'm dodging, I prefer rugby but it's simplistic as much as possible, jazzy bar at the back of the sidewalk 5 Seamus ah dogs, the beginnings of a future album? The good side is this memory of having seen them on TV in a report on the 1st to make the dogs howl and the journalist's face, yes otherwise bluesy piano as a disappointing end to the side; I would understand better if it was done on purpose, ouhhhhh

6 Echoes ah this sonar, I'm settling in, one side, I hope; well you know it by heart, so I go straight to 7'30 yes when the organ and the bass go into nightclub mode, a nod up there to my cousin who came to listen to this one evening at home, RIP. The guitar yes David's trademark which starts up too. Come on a bit of owl calls, I'm kidding Bruno said, crows, wind and the break sets in, take a wool, I didn't see the time go by by the way; 15 minutes and the sonar comes back, with this latent sound, a benchmark value, the one where we wait, not a verse, not words to take up a bit stupidly in concert and clapping our hands, no there we wait religiously; it builds calmly, Nick's pad rolls, the cymbals start to vibrate, the build-up makes you shiver, yes The PINK FLOYD sound has just been born in front of you in a masterful way; a birth without pain, without these cries, just by natural means; the verse, if one can say so, comes back before the grandiose finale too, the beauty of the air, well there is air like at the beginning of the piece, like at the beginning of the album too; a piece of dino rock art.
