1,105 views

'The Man And The Journey' was an early PINK FLOYD concept album that never made it on to a sound carrier, but now it has via RPWL the band that made a career out of being an amazing FLOYD tribute band as well as a fantastic band in their own right that creates their own original brand of FLOYD-influenced art-rock!
'The Man And The Journey' show filmed and recorded during a performance in the Netherlands, at "De Cacaofabriek" in Helmond.
The 1st part of the show sees the band lay out the regular course of a person's day.
The 2nd part consists of the dreamlike spiritual contemplation of all the things that happened in part 1.
In the process the musical implementation proves extremely imaginative; during 'Work' all kinds of utensils create sounds - even a toolbox is made to come to life musically. On songs like: 'Nightmare' - the song that later became famous as 'Cymbaline' - the band amazes with fascinating ensemble playing. The improvised solos do not only show the individual virtuosity of the respective band member in breathtaking manner, but they also demonstrate the degree of ease with which the band manages to master the atmospheric, dynamic and sound-related hurdles hidden in this extraordinary example of early psychedelic music. The magnificent and perfectly embedded visuals further enhance the artistic experience; they beautifully accompany the band as well as the audience on this journey through the early works of PINK FLOYD.
