Music - The Narrow Way, Pink Floyd





"The Narrow Way" is a section on the studio half of Pink Floyd's fourth album Ummagumma. It was written and performed by David Gilmour and is divided into three parts. The only musician to feature is the composer (in this case, Gilmour), who recorded the song using multiple overdubs to play all the instruments himself.
Part one of the song was called "Baby Blue Shuffle in D minor".
Part two features an electric guitar and percussion which modulate heavily at the end, forming a drone that leads into part three.
Part three of the song features Gilmour's only vocal contribution to the studio part of the album.
