Pink Floyd Live At POMPEII Full Live CONCERT 1972

Live versions of the songs, filmed in an old Pompeii amphitheater. Songs included are Echoes (split into 2 parts), Careful with that axe, Eugene, A saucerful of secrets, One of those days, Set the controls for the heart of the sun, Mademoiselle nobbs (Seamus, but with Rick's dog on vocals). "Careful" and "Set the controls" are shot at night with minimal lighting, setting a beautiful mood. And the live Saucerful just has to be seen, with Waters jumping around in the sunlight banging the huge gong. The 80-minute version features studio footage from the recordings of Dark side of the Moon, with alternate versions of Us and them, On the run and Brain Damage, as well as interviews with the band.
Pink Floyd filmed playing live in an ampitheatre in Pompeii. Several tracks from 'Meddle' as well as earlier LPs are included. Also includes interviews and clips of the band working at Abbey Road studios on what would become their landmark 'Dark Side Of The Moon' release.

All these years, I knew about the Pompeii album but never watched/listened to it. My loss. But we live in amazing times when I can catch up on KZbin.

[@blackxd42]

Echoes is a really poetic and insightful choice at this site. A ghostly intro, an emotive and empathetic message. It's like part epic, part love letter to this ancient tomb. The lyrics can even be interpreted like it were a villager's perspective. The town living in the shadow of the volcano, now an echo of a distant time, the chaos and confusion which suddenly befell upon the people, and a sort of unrequited love, a sorrowful existential impasse. As they say, dust to dust, ashes to ashes... Or: All we are is dust in the wind...

[@weehudyy]

I was in a hippy band in the early 70s , we used to do Echoes as our end of the night tune ... We had a residency at an inner city pub , the singer would announce we were taking a a break and then we would play Echoes ... the place would empty , the manager would scratch his head , then a bunch of red eyed stumblers would flood back in and sit on the dance floor and bliss out for the 20 plus minutes we wrung it out to ... Listening to this again after all this time , I would opine we made a pretty fair fist of it ... All concerned went on to long musical careers , and most of us are still gigging

I used to be dismissive of Floyd but now at the age of 53, I realise I was just a young naive blinkered pr1ck. "Echoes" is a sheer work of art that nobody in the future will ever surpass.

I still have it on VHS. And a bootleg of The Wall in New York in 1980, on DVD. Actually went to 4 of the 7 shows they did in Cali. Sports Arena, February 1980. Cost 100 dollars for 2 tickets to each of the 4 shows, I went to. You had to send a cashiers check, with a letter telling what days you would like and how many tickets. You had to figure out how much money you had to send. I got the first 3 shows and the last one. Main floor, right in the middle for every night. It was great. First night, the screen started on fire almost as soon as they started to use it. They had to stop the show for like 40 minutes, to replace the screen. And started over, seeing how it happen right at the beginning of the show. The last night, I had to walk home down the 405 in the pouring raining, back to the south bay. I didn't have a ride. Got to Torrance Blvd. around 4am. In fact, I never had a ride to any of the shows. Always found a ride to the shows, and found someone there to get a ride back to the south bay. But not that last night. And I could never find anyone to go to any of the shows with. My roommate worked nights. So I wasted the other tickets, for each of the shows. They were big on - no scalping, then. Or might of tried to sell them to someone. But never saw a crowd of people looking for tickets, either. What can you do... I had a blast each night. Even in the rain, walking down the freeway shoulder.

Too bad Pink Floyd didn't stay this way, so innovative, ambitious, grounded and musically growing. After awile the pressures of making record executives more wealthy while not getting any significant portions of what is fairly deserved, challenging.
