Live At Pompeii is ****ing brilliant, why make a live video with thousands of fans when you can just zone out in the ruins of an ancient city and just play music?

the music is good, no doubt, i think in the beginning of "A Saucerful of Secrets" live, they probably pioneered noise-rock
but they come across as pretty vanilla in personalities
