Talk:Time (Pink Floyd song)

message: Seeings as this was released as a single (double A-side with "Us and Them"). Does anyone mind me changing the infobox to reflect that? Or is there a specific reason for the current layout? --WillMak050389 01:07, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not really sure about the official status of "double A-sides", but the "single" infobox instructions state that it should not be used for B-sides.  In general, one side of the single should be regarded as the B-side, even if both sides received airplay and charted as a result.  The Goldmine guide lists "Time" as the A-side, and the article for "Us and Them" seems to confirm this, in which case the "single" template should be added to "Time" and removed from "Us and Them".  The picture should also be removed from the "Us and Them" article, as it's not a proper illustration. --A Knight Who Says Ni (talk) 01:38, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That all seems to make sense, I've updated this page, but as for "Us and Them" because the single was considered a double A-side, I think the infobox should stay on there too (though, the cover image could be removed). --WillMak050389 02:33, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I do not agree with that live image is in the infobox, because it is an image, not the cover of an album or single, should not be there but elsewhere within the page.--Eduardofoxx13 (talk) 23:31, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

message: I don't mean to be subjective, but the Farfisa organ in this song doesn't sound like the Farfisa organ in Arnold Layne, but more like the Hammond organ in Breathe. Nor does it sound like the Farfisa organ that I hear in other songs with this instrument. It sounds more like a Hammond B-3 (which was used in other tracks on The Dark Side of the Moon including Breathe) than it does like a Farfisa. I'm not saying it wasn't a Farfisa which I believe it was, it just doesn't sound like one. It sounds like Rick Wright is playing the Farfisa through the Hammond B-3's Leslie speaker and I don't know of any instances of a Farfisa being played through a Leslie. I'm not going to edit the article so that it mentions any of this (after all, this is technically original reaserch which I know articles must not contain) but I would like for someone else to explain what I'm really hearing.--Kevjgav (talk) 09:04, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: @Kevjgav If it makes you feel any better, I also have never heard any Farfisa on this song. In fact I don't hear any Farfisa anywhere on Dark Side, and my impression is that Rick Wright had basically moved away from Farfisa in favor of B3 by this point in their career. Personally I would be comfortable changing the article to simply say "organ," since we don't have sources to support it in either direction. —Jeferman (talk) 16:18, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the Classic Albums Documentary on DSOTM, which shows the track sheet for the entire album in the first few minutes, the farfisa is indeed present in the track. I agree with the use of the leslie speaker with the farfisa, which did happen live (71-73 versions of careful with that axe and set the controls had clearly been run through the leslie, along with the build up section in echoes during 75).

message: I'm nearly certain that the piano in the intro is a Rhodes, rather than a Wurlitzer. Thought he rest of the song is definitely a Wurlitzer. I can't find any sources that talk about it one way or the other, but there are no sources listed for any of the personnel, so I'm gonna go ahead and add it. Let me know if you've got any additional info on this. —Jeferman (talk) 00:37, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
