The Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd, David Bowie

Dear Reader,

In this section I am going to write about the Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd and David Bowie.

First of all I am going to look at Pink Floyd, at the time Syd Barrett was their original lead singer. I am first going to determine what Pink Floyd had in common at this time with The Beatles and what they had in common with the Velvet Underground.

I think that Pink Floyd could really be compared with the Beatles, since they were two bands of experiments. They developed a 'new' type of music, with trying everything they could possibly do. I think that is the most important similarity that is also explained in the following movie:

A thing that Pink Floyd had in common with Velvet Underground is their interaction with the fans/audience. Both the bands had a really good interaction and so could really work together with. They knew how to treat and enjoy their fans.

The second thing I am going to discuss is about the question on which elements David Bowie took from The Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol in the early part of his career.

Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol had a great impact on David Bowie. Both Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol tried to do something 'different'. David Bowie wanted to do this experimenting too, which is why they were really a good example for his career in the beginning. This is why they had a great impact on David Bowie!

Thanks for reading!
