Pink Floyd is a band that was formed in 1964 and frequently switched names: Sigma 6, The Meggadeaths, The Screaming Abdabs and The Abdabs. After the band split up, some of the members - Bob Klose on lead guitar, Roger Waters on bass guitar, Nick Mason on drums, and the member who would later play keyboards, Rick Wright, who at the time played wind insturments - formed a new band named Tea Set. Shortly after, Syd Barrett joined the group and soon became the lead guitar player for the band. At a musical event, there was another band using the same name, so Barrett desided to use the name The Pink Floyd Sound (named after two blues artists, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council). At first they used both names, but in the end, the new name took over. Soon they stopped using the Sound, but the The stuck all the way until 1969, through the release of their soundtrack from the movie More. |
