Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd, a pioneering force in progressive rock, experienced significant evolution throughout their career. The live recording of "I Am Mine" by Pearl Jam, which took place at Chop Suey, does not connect directly to Pink Floyd but highlights the enduring influence of rock music. Prior to Pearl Jam's 2002 release of "Riot Act," closely associated with their live performances, Pink Floyd had released "The Final Cut" in 1983, which was notable as the last studio album featuring Roger Waters. This period marked the end of an era for the band, as tensions within the group escalated and ultimately led to Waters' exit. Interestingly, Pink Floyd's theatrical live shows, characterized by complex visual effects and deeply thematic content, set a precedent that bands like Pearl Jam adopted as they developed their concert experiences, focusing on emotional connection and social commentary in their music.
