The xylophone you were hearing is a distorted grand piano. If you look to the right of the gong, you can see it being played in front of the speaker stack. There is also a couple of organs, not sure which ones, but he used to play a Hammond a lot. The Bass player is playing one of them before he stands up. As a side note A Saucerful Of Secrets is from the album of the same name and Careful With That Axe Eugene is originally the B side to a single and was later put on Relics. The versions of both songs on Ummagumma are live. It's Pronounced um(like umbrella)-a-gum(like gumball)-a. Like a lot of the albums before Meddle there's some very experimental songs and I can guarantee you won't like them all, but without listening from the beginning, you miss the development of their sound and even if it's a little Avant Garde it's still well performed, well produced and an experience you won't forget in a hurry. Start at the beginning and enjoy sailing down that Endless River.

2025-03-17 23:37:00 +0000 UTCI'm going to be digging a lot more into their stuff. A ton of which, like this, won't make it onto youtube. This was full stop blocked with the dispute rejected. Now whether that is due to them re-releasing the concert into theaters or not, which I guess may be why since they normally release blocks and claim reactions to their music, either way, I'll be doing more reactions to them and their full discography.
