Released: October 31, 1971
Songwriter: Richard Wright David Gilmour Nick Mason Roger Waters
Producer: Pink Floyd
"One of These Days" is the opening track from Pink Floyd's 1971 album "Meddle." The song is instrumental (despite its distorted death growl "One of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces") and features double-tracked bass guitars played by David Gilmour and Roger Waters. Waters' bass is panned hard left with Gilmour's fading into the right channel. Gilmour's bass sound is quite muted and dull. According to Gilmour, this is because that particular instrument had old strings on it Read more on Last.fm.
