Pink Floyd

In October 1969, Pink Floyd was riding high on the success of their groundbreaking album "Ummagumma," which was released just weeks prior to the live recording in Belgium. This period marked a transitional phase for the band as they evolved from their early psychedelic roots into a more experimental and ambitious sound. The performance at the Festival Actuel in Amougies showcased their innovative approach, with live renditions of tracks that highlighted their commitment to avant-garde music. Notably, "Green is the Colour" features a haunting atmosphere that perfectly encapsulates the band's early explorations into thematic and sonic experimentation. This live recording also reflects the burgeoning progressive rock movement, which Pink Floyd would soon help to define, cementing their influence in the music world.
