[edit] Dirty Woman

My Dad had the original album and it was called Dirty Woman not Young Lust

I have no idea what you are talking about. The real name of the song is "Young Lust". I don't know what copy your dad has, but every copy I have ever seen has the name of the song listed as Young Lust. If I am wrong prove it to me.

My dad told me it was listed as Dirty Women on it not Young Lust.

I don't care if your dad told you. Give me real proof.

I haven't been able to turn up a single source that calls this song "Dirty Woman" except for people who don't know what the song is called, all the copies of it I've ever seen call it "Young Lust", and that's the name it's most widely known as. Unless you can provide some source other than "My dad told me", I think it should be changed back. --74.101.17.204 00:25, 7 February 2007 (U

I am looking at the original LP right now. It says "Young Lust" ChunkyStyle (talk contribs) 17:42, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Genre

The article states, "The song has a distinctive, raw hard rock sound that stands out among Pink Floyd's body of work."

I don't think it sounds like standard hard rock--too slow and ponderous, and not especially loud. I always thought it had more of a bluesy feel to it. Might it be classed as blues rock? marbeh raglaim (talk) 10:57, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

You must be kinda on the young side. Rock music circa 1979 really didn't come much harder, without being Led Zeppelin or full-out heavy metal. Compared to today's standards, of course, it's more funk/blues than anything else. --63.25.117.29 (talk) 12:06, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Depends what you mean by young. I'm 31, and I've always been a big listener of classic rock. By 1979, there were indeed many non-metal, non-Zep songs that were harder than this one: stuff by Bad Company, for example. Pink Floyd is often hard to classify, using elements of hard rock instrumentation to produce mellow, jazzy melodies. In the case of this song, I think blues-rock is more descriptive. marbeh raglaim (talk) 01:50, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
