The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is the début album by the English rock group Pink Floyd, and the only one made under founding member Syd Barrett's leadership. The album contains whimsical lyrics about space, scarecrows, gnomes, bicycles and fairy tales, along with psychedelic instrumental songs. The album was initially released in 1967 by Columbia/EMI in the United Kingdom and Tower/Capitol in the United States. Special limited editions were issued to mark its thirtieth and fortieth anniversaries in 1997 and 2007, respectively.Architecture students Roger Waters, Nick Mason and Richard Wright, and art student Syd Barrett, had performed in various guises since 1962, and began touring as "The Pink Floyd" in 1965. They turned professional on 1 February 1967, when they signed with EMI, with an advance fee of £5,000. Their first single, a song about a kleptomaniac transvestite titled "Arnold Layne", was released on 11 March to mild controversy - Radio London refused to air it. About three weeks later the band were introduced to the mainstream media. EMI's press release claimed that the band were "musical spokesmen for a new movement which involves experimentation in all the arts", but EMI attempted to put some distance between them and the underground scene from which the band originated by stating that "the Pink Floyd does not know what people mean by psychedelic pop and are not trying to create hallucinatory effects on their audiences". The band returned to Sound Techniques Studio to record their next single, "See Emily Play", on 18 May. The single was released almost a month later, on 16 June, and reached number six in the charts.

The Piper at the Gates of Dawn was released in August 1967. Pink Floyd continued to perform at the UFO Club drawing huge crowds, but Barrett's deterioration caused them serious concern. The band initially hoped that his erratic behaviour was a phase that would pass, but others, including manager Peter Jenner and his secretary June Child, were more realistic:
... I found him in the dressing room and he was so ... gone. Roger Waters and I got him on his feet, we got him out to the stage ... and of course the audience went spare because they loved him. The band started to play and Syd just stood there. He had his guitar around his neck and his arms just hanging down.
—June Child
To the band's consternation, they were forced to cancel their appearance at the prestigious National Jazz and Blues Festival, informing the music press that Barrett was suffering from nervous exhaustion. Jenner and Waters arranged for Barrett to see a psychiatrist—a meeting he did not attend. He was sent to Formentera with Sam Hutt (a doctor well-established in the underground music scene) but this led to no visible improvement.
The original UK LP (with a monaural mix) was released on 5 August 1967, and one month later it was released in stereophonic mix. It reached number six on the UK charts.
The original U.S. album appeared on the Tower Records division of Capitol Records in October 1967. This version (ST-5093, stereo; T-5093, mono) was officially titled simply Pink Floyd though the original album title did appear on the back cover as on the UK issue. The US album featured an abbreviated track listing and reached number 131 on the Billboard charts. A UK single, "See Emily Play", was substituted for "Astronomy Domine", "Flaming", and "Bike". The Tower Records vinyl issue also faded out "Interstellar Overdrive" and broke up the segue into "The Gnome" because the songs were re-sequenced. Later US issues on compact disc had the same title and track list as the UK version.
The Canadian LP (Capitol/EMI ST-6242) had the same title and track listing as the UK version.
The album was certified Gold in the US on 11 March 1994.

Robo (España): Esta tierra es de los dos (2011)

Woody Guthrie
Robo es el nombre de un excelente colectivo de música en España. Ya les traeremos más cosas de ellos.

Ahora, no se pierdan esta hermosa versión en castellano del tema emblemático de Woody Guthrie, This land is your land.

Nos encantaría escucharla versionada (y adaptada) en castellano rioplatense, jujeño, y de otros lugares de Sudamérica.

Esta es tu tierra, esta es mi tierra
Desde Calahorra hasta Formentera

De los Bufones a la Albufera
Esta tierra es de los dos

Mientras andaba por la M-30
que ya era peatonal
me saludó una zarigüeya
Me dijo: "esta tierra es de los dos"

He vagado y he paseado
y he seguido mis propios pasos
hasta el desierto de los Monegros
Esta tierra es de los dos

El sol caía sobre mis hombros
cuando el polvo me cegó
y una voz cantó muy cerca:
"esta tierra es de los dos"

Y al avanzar vi una señal
que decía "propiedad privada"
pero al otro lado no ponía nada
Y ese lado es de los dos

En las plazas de las ciudades
veo a la gente ponerse en pie
Unos protestan y otros celebran
que esta tierra de todos es

Esta es tu tierra, esta es mi tierra
Desde Calahorra hasta Formentera
De los Bufones a la Albufera
Esta tierra de todos es

Esta es tu tierra, esta es mi tierra
Desde Calahorra hasta Formentera
De los Bufones a la Albufera
Esta tierra de todos es

Playing for Change: Stand by me / Quedate al lado mío




Stand by me

Ben E. King, Jerry Leiber y Mike Stoller

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darling, darling stand by me
Stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
