Learn to Play Pink Floyd Volume 2: The Exploration of a Sonic Odyssey

With a fresh new collection of iconic tracks to unlock with tutor Jamie Humphries, LickLibrary's "Learn to Play Pink Floyd Volume 2" is a journey through five of the band's most evocative pieces: "Time," "Mother," "Learning to Fly," "On The Turning Away," and "Have a Cigar." Harnessing the quintessential Pink Floyd sound, this course captures the essence of the psychedelic landscapes sculpted by David Gilmour, the band's virtuoso guitarist. It offers an intricate look at the layering of guitar scales, the creative soloing, and the richness of Pink Floyd's emotive musical narratives.

Time

"Time" is a profound exploration of existential angst, brought to life with David Gilmour's sublime guitar artistry. The song unfolds from a chorus-driven dreamy arpeggiation, evolving into a minor pentatonic scale-fueled solo. Its emotive vibrato bends and intricate slides highlight Gilmour's ability to articulate the deepest human feelings through his guitar. The analysis of this track focuses on the dynamic construction of its solos and the manipulation of the D minor scale, providing learners an in-depth look into Gilmour's melodic style.

Mother

"Mother" is a testament to the band's acoustic sensibilities. Here, Gilmour utilizes the G Major scale to weave a tender narrative of maternal influence. The song offers a study in chord progressions, transitioning between open chord strumming and arpeggiated sequences. This track's exploration focuses on mastering the dynamics of finger picking, understanding the subtleties of Travis picking, and the skillful application of slides in the context of an acoustic setting.

Learning to Fly

"Learning to Fly" captures the spiritual euphoria of freedom and the fear of the unknown. The solo, built around the G Major pentatonic scale, reveals Gilmour's adeptness at evoking ethereal moods. The use of syncopated rhythms and sustained notes demonstrates his skill in crafting atmospheric melodies. The study of this track dives into the implementation of two-handed tapping and power chords, capturing the essence of Gilmour's minimalist approach to melody construction.

On The Turning Away

"On The Turning Away" is a poignant commentary on societal issues. The song is rooted in the B Minor scale, offering an emotive melodic trajectory. The solo serves as an epitome of Gilmour's controlled legato technique and his soulful use of vibrato. The dissection of this piece delves into the utilization of double stops and the application of chromaticism in solos, offering learners a comprehensive understanding of Gilmour's textural approach.

Have a Cigar

"Have a Cigar" is a satirical dig at the music industry, underscored by a blend of bluesy bends and galloping rhythms. The song's dominant use of the E Mixolydian mode, combined with a syncopated rhythm section, forms its distinctive character. The examination of this track concentrates on the implementation of palm-muting and the role of chord progressions in shaping the track's rhythmic diversity.

David Gilmour: The Psychedelic Virtuoso

David Gilmour's guitar work is an integral part of Pink Floyd's sound. His keen sense of melody, coupled with his inventive soundscapes, makes him a pivotal figure in the world of rock guitar. His playing style, often underscored by a liberal use of vibrato and a careful selection of scales, brings out the emotional resonance of each piece. This course, while breaking down each song, pays homage to Gilmour's legacy and offers learners a chance to grasp his unique approach to guitar playing.
