Pink Floyd

On November 5, 1971, Pink Floyd performed a notable concert at Hunter College in New York. At this point in their career, the band had recently released the album "Meddle," which came out in late 1971, just a couple of months prior to the concert. "Meddle" was significant as it marked a transitional phase for Pink Floyd, moving away from their earlier psychedelic sound towards more complex and cohesive compositions. During the Hunter College concert, Pink Floyd showcased songs that would later appear on "Meddle," such as "The Embryo," emphasizing their evolving musical style. The concert is often highlighted for its vibrant atmosphere and the band’s increasing confidence in live performances, which set the groundwork for their future iconic shows. This era was pivotal, reflecting the band's shift towards the ambitious soundscapes that would define their later works.
