A Tree Full of Secrets

 

the definitive Pink Floyd rarities compilation

 

 

 

Introduction

 

On 18 CDs (yes, eighteen!) you'll find all the A and B sides of all the Pink Floyd singles, all the promo, edited, obscured, or remixed versions, and all the soundtracks bits of your favorite Pink Floyd and solo tracks.

Basically, this collection includes (nearly) all songs officially released, but not on regular album (compilations, singles, promos, soundtracks...), as well as rare versions from acetates and studio outtakes. We didn't consider live tracks (concerts, radio or TV appearances), unless they're part of a single or a promo single. We also left out of this scope the Syd Barrett solo rarities, because it mainly consists in slightly different mixes of regular versions (we'd like to let a more hardcore fan than we are, doing the job). Some other things are not included, mainly because they could be treed separately, as a whole entity: "Live At Pompeii" and "The Wall" soundtracks, mono editions of albums ("The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn", "A Saucerful Of Secrets"), quadraphonic editions of albums ("Atom Heart Mother", "The Dark Side Of The Moon", "Wish You Were Here")...

There are in fact 17 audio CDs and one data CD. This latter CD contains all the artworks and booklets (with all you ever dreamt to know about each track of each CD!), and some bonus files (that we hope you'll enjoy) while keeping the secret about their contents.

We tried to make the most definitive Pink Floyd rarities compilation, in both completeness and sound quality. For each track, we tried to find the best sounding version available. As a result, we're proud to say that a lot of tracks sound better than any other version available elsewhere.

 

 

Rules

 

What we mean with the word "rarity":

 

1) Song officially released, but not on regular albums (compilations, singles, soundtracks...) [1]

2) Alternate mix (acetate...)

3) Outtake from unreleased studio session

4) Demo

 

[1] with an exception for the stuff being a part of a whole "entity"

     (most of them are available separately, as other projects).

     For instance, the following stuff is not included:

     - "Live At Pompeii" soundtrack

     - "The Wall" soundtrack

     - mono "Piper At The Gates Of Dawn", "A Saucerful Of Secrets"

     - quadraphonic "Atom Heart Mother", "Dark Side Of The Moon", "Wish You Were Here"

     - "Delicate Sound Of Thunder" video

     - "P*U*L*S*E" video

 

"Chronological" rules for tracklist:

 

1) tracks are sorted by recording date, not release date [2]

2) different versions of the same track with same recording date are sorted by release date [3]

3) singles from the same album are listed in the same order than on the album [4]

[2] with an exception for the demos, placed before the actual release, to save "continuity" and to hear how the song evolved from the demo to the released version.

[3] if the release date is the same or unknown, the versions are sorted from the most "usual" to the most "unusual": single version -> extended version -> promo version

[4] unless the recording dates are known with precision for each track (in this case, see rule nr.1)

Contents

 

There are in fact 17 audio CDs and 1 data CD. This latter CD contains all the artworks and booklets, and some bonus files.

Now, how are all these tracks organized into 17 audio CDs?

The first 8 CDs contain the Pink Floyd rarities (from 1965 to 1994).

The next 6 CDs contain the soundtracks (from Pink Floyd and members).

The last 3 CDs contain the solo members rarities.

The 17 CDs are split into 9 volumes (each volume is a 2 CD set, except volume 9, which is a single CD). So, there are 9 different artworks, and the whole Rarities compilation will take the place of 9 jewel boxes in your CD collection.

1 - Lucy Leave (uncredited)                 02:51

2 - I'm a King Bee (written by Moore recorded by Slim Harpo)                 03:03

       Recorded : London, Thompson Recording Studios, May 15, 1965

       Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

       Source for the tree : "A Fish out of Water" RoIO CD & "Outtakes from Outer Space" RoIO CD

These two (unreleased) songs appear on a two-sided 7" acetate discovered early 1988. Whilst some experts consider this as a fake, Miles reproduces in his book a setlist including "Lucy Leave" for the gig the band played on October 14, 1966.

 

3 - Let's Roll Another One (Barrett)       03:09

       Recorded : London, Thompson Recording Studios, October 31, 1966

       Primary source : ?

       Source for the tree : unkown gen copy from outtake

Instrumental rehearsals for this song that later became "Candy and a Current Bun".

This obscure outtake probably comes from the October 1966 session at Thompson Recording Studios (where the first studio version of "Interstellar Overdrive" was also recorded, and later used in the "San Francisco" movie).

 

4 - Arnold Layne (Barrett) - acetate       02:34

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967

       Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

       Source for the tree : "Anthology II" RoIO CD

Fades in 2 seconds after the actual start, strange edit skipping organ solo.

 

5 - Arnold Layne (Barrett) - mono       02:53

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967

       Primary source : "Arnold Layne" single (1^st single), released March 11, 1967

       Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD

 

6 - Arnold Layne (Barrett) - fake stereo       02:51

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967

       Primary source : "The Best of the Pink Floyd" compilation, released 1970

              & "Masters of Rock" compilation, released 1973

       Source for the tree : "Works" CD

 

7 - Candy and a Current Bun (Barrett) - acetate       01:59

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967

       Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

       Source for the tree : "Anthology II" RoIO CD

Alternate lyrics ("please just walk with me" while on the regular single version it's "please just f*** with me"), different verse structure, no organ and guitar solos.

Some people refer to this version as being "Let's Roll Another One" from October 1966 sessions at Thompson Recording Studios, but since the instrumental tracks are the same as the regular single version, this probably comes from the same January 1967 sessions at Sound Techniques Studios.

 

8 - Candy and a Current Bun (Barrett) - mono       02:43

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967

       Primary source : "Arnold Layne" single (1^st single), released March 11, 1967

       Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD

 

9 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - demo       06:57

       Recorded : ?

       Primary source : ?

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy

This obscure demo is probably a fake. However, it has acquired a certain fame in the trading circle of Pink Floyd fans. We included it here, in order to let you make your own opinion. Some say it was recorded on a cheap cassette recorder, by two guys playing guitar simultaneously, sometime during the 80s. Note that the first riff after the intro is identical to the bass riff that can be heard on the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" version, and that earlier versions of the song (on "San Francisco" soundtrack or "Tonite Let's All Make Love in London" soundtrack) don't contain this particular riff. This leads to the conclusion that this "demo" was probably recorded after the release of "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" album.

 

10 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - Sound Techniques outtake       10:43

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 31 - February 1, 1967

       Primary source : CBC Canadian Radio broadcast, early 1967

       Source for the tree : "Stone Rust" RoIO CD & "Dark Globe" RoIO CD

              & "The Sights And Sounds Of Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd" RoIO CD

Extracts from the 3^rd studio version of "Interstellar Overdrive" can be heard in the background, during an interview broadcast in early 1967 by CBC Canadian Radio.

Pink Floyd recorded 4 different studio versions of "Interstellar Overdrive". The first version was recorded in October 1966 at Thompson Recording Studios, and was later used in the 1968 "San Francisco" movie. The second version was recorded on January 11, 1967, at Sound Techniques Studios, and was used in the "Tonite Let's All Make Love in London" movie. The third version was recorded during the "Arnold Layne" / "Candy and a Current Bun" sessions at Sound Techniques Studios. Only extracts from this version have surfaced, they can be heard in the background during the CBC broadcast from early 1967. The fourth version was recorded at Abbey Road in March 1967, and is the regular version that can be found on "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" album.

 

11 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - Abbey Road outtake       00:40

12 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - mono single version       05:13

       Primary source : "Arnold Layne" French EP, released 1967

       Source for the tree : "Anthology II" RoIO CD

This version is unique, because it only contains the basic track, without overdubs. It fades out before the actual end of the song.

 

13 - Scarecrow (Barrett) - Abbey Road outtake       01:05

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, March 19-20, 1967

       Primary source : BBC broadcast, 1967

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy from BBC broadcast

Outtake from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions, broadcast by the BBC in 1967. All the instruments are heavily undermixed. This is nearly an unplugged version J.

 

14 - Scarecrow (Barrett) - mono       02:07

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, March 19-20, 1967

       Primary source : "See Emily Play" single (2^nd single), released June 16, 1967

       Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD

 

15 - Astronomy Dominé (Barrett) - Abbey Road outtake       03:26

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, April 11-12, 1967

       Primary source : BBC broadcast, 1967

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy from BBC broadcast

Outtake from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions, broadcast by the BBC in 1967, including an interview with Floyd's manager Peter Jenner.

 

16 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - actetate       02:49

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, May 18 & 21, 1967

       Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

       Source for the tree : "Dawn Of The Piper" RoIO CD

This version is very close to the regular one, there are only slight changes in the mix (vocals are undermixed, organ is more in the front...). Note that the very end is uncut.

 

17 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - mono       02:52

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, May 18 & 21, 1967

       Primary source : "See Emily Play" single (2^nd single), released June 16, 1967

       Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD

 

18 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - fake stereo       02:49

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, May 18 & 21, 1967

       Primary source : "The Best of the Pink Floyd" compilation, released 1970

              & "Masters of Rock" compilation, released 1973

       Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD

 

19 - Flaming (Barrett) - mono       02:43

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, June 7 & 27, 1967

       Primary source : "Flaming" US single (3^rd US single), released November 2, 1967.

       Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD

"Flaming" was not on the first US release of "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" album, and was then released as a single. This version is different from the regular (stereo) mix: background noises are mixed much louder.

In fact, this version is identical to the version on the mono edition of "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" album. Curiously, on the 30^th Anniversary Mono Edition CD released in 1997, one chord of the final chords sequence was edited out.

 

20 - Sunshine (uncredited)       01:31

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, June 29, 1967

       Primary source : ?

       Source for the tree : "Dawn Of The Piper" RoIO CD

This track was probably recorded during the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions. Malcom Jones, in his book "The Making of the Madcap Laughs", suggests this is an early version of "Remember a Day". Some think it's in fact a part of "Matilda Mother", that was recorded the same day ...

 

21 - Silas Lane (uncredited)       02:39

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, June 1967

       Primary source : ?

       Source for the tree : "Vegetable Man, Where Are You" RoIO LP

This outtake was probably recorded during the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions. These are the early chords of Barrett's song "Swan Lee (Silas Lang)". Note that the piano and jazz tunes may be due to a technical error while dubbing the original multitrack master tape onto cassette. The definitive version of "Swan Lee" was recorded by Barrett one year later and released on "Opel" in 1988. Some think this outtake comes from a Barrett solo session.

 

22 - Scream Thy Last Scream (Barrett) - mono       04:27

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, August 7-8, 1967

       Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy

This was intended to be the A-side of Pink Floyd's fourth single (after "Apples and Oranges" single). But due to Syd's departure from the band, it remained unreleased.

              & "Masters of Rock" compilation, released 1973

       Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD

Curiously, on "A CD Full of Secrets", the right and left channels were inverted, comparing to the original stereo version on "The Best of the Pink Floyd" and "Masters of Rock".

 

8 - Paint Box (Wright) - mono       03:44

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, October 30 - November 1, 1967

       Source for the tree : 1^st gen copy from "Remember A Day" promo single

There's an edit during the intro, the 2^nd verse ("Now is the time to be aware...") is missing, the beginning of the instrumental part after the last verse was cut, and there's an early fade out.

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, January 31, 1968

       Primary source : Belgian promo video

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy from Belgian promo video

This mono version has an alternate ending: the last chorus (just after "His boots were very clean") and the following instrumental part are alternate takes from the regular version.

 

12 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - mono       03:43

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968

       Primary source : "It Would Be So Nice" single (4^th single), released April 12, 1968

       Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD

Due to the "Evening Standard" mention in the original lyrics, the Floyd was forced to return in the studio to change it into "Daily Standard". The original "Evening Standard" version doesn't seem to have surfaced.

 

13 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - promo edit       03:12

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968

       Primary source : "It Would Be So Nice" UK promo single, released April 12, 1968

       Source for the tree : ?

The central "It would be so nice" chorus is only sung once, and the first lines of the second verse ("Everybody cares about the weather ... what a waste of time") are edited.

 

14 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - fake stereo       03:39

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968

Curiously, on "A CD Full of Secrets", the right and left channels were inverted, comparing to the original fake stereo version on "The Best of the Pink Floyd" and "Masters of Rock".

 

15 - Julia Dream (Waters) - demo       03:14

       Recorded : ?

       Primary source : ?

       Source for the tree : unknown gen copy

This obscure demo is probably a fake. However, it has acquired a certain fame in the trading circle of Pink Floyd fans. We included it here, in order to let you make your own opinion. It has surfaced on the same tape that contains the (fake) demo of "Interstellar Overdrive" (one can hear the beginning of "Interstellar Overdrive" right after the end of "Julia Dream"). So, this was probably recorded by the same guys.

 

16 - Julia Dream (Waters) - mono       02:31

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 23, 1968

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, April - June 1969

       Primary source : "Picnic - A Breath of Fresh Air" Harvest sampler, released June 1970

       Source for the tree : "Works" CD

This version is often considered as a demo. In fact, it was recorded during the "Ummagumma" studio sessions at Abbey Road, but it was not included on the album, because the band later decided to organise the studio disc in four parts (one part for each member). This song first appeared in June 1970 on "Picnic - A Breath of Fresh Air" Harvest sampler, without the band's agreement. In 1983, this version was included on "Works" Canadian compilation, this time with the band's agreement.

 

3 - Biding My Time (Waters)       05:14

       Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, April - June 1969

       Primary source : "Relics" compilation, released May 14, 1971

       Source for the tree : "Relics" CD

This is the other song that was recorded during the "Ummagumma" studio sessions, but was not included on the album. This track was part of "The Man & the Journey" concept suite that the Floyd used to perform in 1969.

4 - "this is pretty avant-garde isn't it"       00:09

During Roger Waters' speech at 04:32, this sentence can be heard on the right channel (you have to play the song at half speed to hear it properly).

5 - "and the wind cried ... "       00:06

There was a strong debate about what Roger says at the very end of the track: "And the wind cried Mary ? Marion ? Back ? ". Make your own opinion before Dave thanks you ;-)

Note : it is also said that at some point Roger says "Bring Back My Guitar", but we haven't been able to find this sentence during the song (or nothing that could be clearly identified as this).

       Source for the tree : "Pink Floyd In Concerto" Italian single

These 4 tracks come from an Italian single entitled "Pink Floyd In Concerto" that was released as a bonus with the "Gong" magazine, sometimes in the 70's. This one plays extracts from a bootleg LP ("Hamburger"). When the powers that be found it was bootlegged music, they tried to stop the magazine selling, but some copies went through. The single was later re-released as a bonus with another bootleg LP ("A Special Treat").

Here's what the front cover of the single says: "Supplemento al No 1 anno 4o di 'GONG' mensile di musica e cultura progressiva. 'PINK FLOYD IN CONCERTO' 16 minuti di musica live da monaco di baviera".

Nick Mason's words "One of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces" are repeated all through the song. The voice in the background all along the track is the one of Jimmy Young, an English DJ who was disliked by the band and is the inspiration for the song. This Jimmy Young speech was also used during live performances in late 1974, when the band played a tape of this speech (in loop mode, with increasing tempo) before the song "Raving and Drooling" (early version of "Sheep").

There's only one verse, which is mainly the first verse of the original version (until "just wait a while for the right day"), where the last lines were replaced by those of the second verse ("and as you rise ... faces in the crowd"). This version also fades out early.

At the very end of "The Dark Side of the Moon", you can hear at very low level (below the tape hiss level) some notes of music. Some think it's a Beatles tune, some don't ;-). Even if it's easier to remove it than keep it, all the remastered editions of the album have this "default".

Impromptu song, probably sung by Nick Mason, with John Peel and Alan Stiles (Floyd roadie to whom the song "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast" on "Atom Heart Mother" album is dedicated). Some say it was recorded during the Zabriskie Point sessions in Rome, December 1969. Other think it's from 1974 or 1975. One thing is almost certain though: it must have been recorded in December... ;-)

This version fades in during Part 3 (last guitar solo before vocals), continues with the first verse of Part 4 ("Remember when you were young ... you legend, you martyr, and shine"), then jumps to Part 7 (third verse: "Nobody knows where you are ... for truth and delusion, and shine"), and fades out during the end of Part 8.

On the promo sampler, this version is called "radio edit", but it's in fact a short version of the song (there is no "edit"): it fades in at the beginning of Part 4 ("Remember when you were young ...") and fades out at the end of Part 5 (sax solo).

This version is also called "radio edit" on the US promo sampler, although it's slightly different from the "radio edit" on the UK promo sampler. Again, there's no "edit" and it's in fact a short version: it fades in during the end of Part 3 (last guitar solo before vocals) and fades out early during Part 5 (sax solo).

Parts 1 to 9 linked together, remixed with storm noises in the background. It is said that this track was remixed by or for the BBC, but it is probably a fake.

Since the original version has lyrics that say "F*** all that", David Gilmour came back in the studio to make a radio-friendly version ("Stuff all that") for the single release. Note that they just recorded "Stuff all that" loud enough to drown the original, which is still there. The intro is slightly different from the album version (no laugh), and this version fades out before the lyrics "Where's the fucking bar John?".

This is Jon Carin's demo. Jon Carin met David Gilmour in 1985, during "Live Aid". He played keyboards with the Floyd (in studio and on tour) from 1986 to 1994. He also played keyboards, guitars and did some vocals on Roger Waters' "In The Flesh" Tour, in 1999 and 2000.

       Source for the tree : "Learning to Fly" UK CD single

The instrumental part before the last verse ("Above the planet on a wing and a prayer ...") is edited (6 bars instead of 10 during the "checklist"). This version also fades out slightly earlier than the regular one.

This version begins with the first drum hit (the "clocks noises" part of the album version is skipped). The rototom intro is edited (4 themes instead of 8) and doesn't have the background keyboards. The central part with bass solo is edited (2 themes instead of 4). The last chorus is repeated and the fade out happens during the second one (on the album version, after the last chorus, there's a reprise of the bass solo and then the song fades out).

       Source for the tree : "The Division Bell" LP

This LP version is different from the CD version, with a slight change in the lyrics: the first lines of the second verse ("I murmured a vow ... when I think aloud") were added to the first verse, and the rest of the second verse ("Extinguished by the light ... with an empty smile") was left out, so that the LP version has a longer first verse, and no second verse between "This bleeding heart's not beating much" and "I'm creeping back to life...".

At the very end of "The Division Bell" album, there's a phone conversation between Steve O'Rourke (Floyd's manager) and Charlie (Polly Samson's son; Polly married David Gilmour in 1994). This conversation was probably incidentally recorded by the answering machine at Gilmour's house.

This is an "answers only" interview, where David Gilmour is supposed to answer 8 different questions. The questions are available on a separate sheet provided with the promo CD:

Question 1: Where was your new album, The Division Bell, recorded ?

Question 2: How was the recording of this album different from the previous Pink Floyd album ?

Question 3: How did you arrive at the title The Division Bell ?

Question 4: Do you enjoy putting on such enormous concert events ?

Question 5: Let's talk about the songs on the album. On "What Do You Want From Me" the music was written by you and Richard and the lyrics were written by you and Polly Samson. Could you tell us how this wame about ?

Question 6: There's an incredible instrumental on the album. Could you explain how you came up with the music and the title to "Marooned" ?

Question 7: How did you come up with "Wearing The Inside Out". I see that Dick Parry plays saxophone on this song ?

Question 8: "Keep Talking" is an amazing song. It's being played on the radio almost constantly. Are you happy with the response that song is getting ?

This track consists of various ambient noises and is probably an extract of the (longer) tape that was played before the Floyd shows during the Division Bell Tour. Somewhere in the middle, an extract from "Cluster One" can be heard. It is not available on "P*U*L*S*E" CD and LP releases.

       Primary source : "Wish You Were Here" French promo single, released 1995

       Source for the tree : "Wish You Were Here" French promo CD

This is an edit of the "P*U*L*S*E" version: it fades in at the beginning of the acoustic guitar solo (at 01:42 on "P*U*L*S*E" CD), and there's a short edit during the last guitar/voice duo, after the last verse (the segment 04:29-04:43 on the "P*U*L*S*E" CD version was cut).

       Primary source : "Coming Back to Life" US promo single, released 1995

       Source for the tree : "Coming Back to Life" US promo CD

This is an edit of the "P*U*L*S*E" version: the instrumental guitar intro is missing (the song begins with the first lines "Where were you ..."), and it ends just after the last verse (skipping the final guitar solo).

 

10 - One of These Days (Waters, Wright, Mason, Gilmour) - live       06:45

The first track of the film was in fact recorded backwards. We inverted this track, so that you can hear the song as it was recorded (track 4). Track 5 is the track as it appears in the film.

Note that part 7 is an early version of "Careful With That Axe, Eugene".

       Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, March 1969

       Primary source : BBC broadcast ("Laying Down Tracks"), June 1969

       Source for the tree : unknown gen from BBC broadcast

This is in fact a documentary about the multi-track recording technique, broadcast by the BBC in June 1969, under the title "Laying Down Tracks". One can hear outtakes from the "More" recording sessions: first, some unreleased instrumental music, then "Cirrus Minor" and at last the keyboards intro to "Main Theme".

On some RoIOs, this BBC docmumentary is wrongly referred as being "The Committee" soundtrack.

Alternate mono mix. Extended intro (before the first organ notes). Sounds and background noises are differently mixed (especially the orchestra snippets). The last part is edited.

       Recorded : Rome, November - December 1969

       Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" soundtrack, released 1970

       Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD

This song was described by David Gilmour as "a kind of country and western number which he [Michelangelo Antonioni, the film's director] could have gotten done better by any number of American bands. But he chose ours... Very strange".

       Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" film, released 1970

Alternate mono mix, organ mixed louder, one guitar track edited out. Note that the "reprise", after the abrupt cut, only appears on the LaserDisc version.

 

9 - Love Scene - Version 4 (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright)       06:43

       Recorded : Rome, November 16, 1969

       Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

       Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD

Pink Floyd made at least 6 attempts to compose music that could fit in the desert sex sequence of the film. Finally, none of the Floyd's versions was chosen (the music accompanying the love scene in the film was composed and played by Grateful Dead's guitarist Jerry Garcia). Version 4 is a quiet instrumental piano piece, played by Rick Wright.

 

10 - Love Scene - Version 6 (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright)       07:24

       Recorded : Rome, November 16, 1969

       Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

       Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD

Version 6 is a totally different approach than version 4. This is a blues jam, played by the whole band, not very far from the blues number they used to play during their live performances in 1970 and 1971.

 

11 - Unknown Song (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright)       06:00

       Recorded : Rome, December 6, 1969

       Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

       Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD

The acoustic guitar duo has some themes from "The Narrow Way Part 1". The bass lines appearing in this outtake were later developed in "Atom Heart Mother" ("Funky Dung").

       Recorded : Rome, December 6, 1969

Alternate take from "Unknown Song" (same basic track, but different lead and overdubs, different edits). The title "Rain In The Country" was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.

 

13 - Country Song (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright)       04:37

       Source for the tree : "Omay Yad" RoIO CD

"Oenone", from Greek mythology, is the name of a nymph deserted by her husband, Paris, for Helen of troy. Some prefer to spell this outtake "Oneone", because it would be pronounced "oh-nee-oh-nee", the same way as the end of Zabriskie Point's director name, Michelangelo AntONIONI. This title was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.

"Fingal's Cave" is the name of a large cavern on Staffa islet in the Hebrides, West Scotland. This title was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.

This is in fact the main theme of the soundtrack, that appears on several other tracks, in different forms. This version is an acoustic song: acoustic guitar, bass and Roger Waters' vocals.

Alternate take, directly from the film. Note that there are sometimes two vocal lines instead of one on the regular version. If you listen carefully, you can hear some birds in the background, in fact this is exactly the same tape that was used at the beginning of "More" (probably an Abbey Road standard tape, since the same birds can be heard on songs from other artists, like the Beatles, the Kinks, Kate Bush...).

From a biography of Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte. Although this documentary was first released in 1978, it is possible that the music has been recorded several years before. For instance, during Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4, the strange keyboards sounds are very similar to those one can hear during "On The Run" sequence of "Live At Pompeii", where Roger Waters is trying to get different sounds from the synthesizer (this could make sense, since both "Magritte" and "Live At Pompeii" were directed by Adrian Maben). Some attribute these low-pitched pulses to Adrian Maben himself, although he's not credited as music composer for this documentary. The song that can be heard during Part 5 and Part 6 seems to be an unreleased song performed by Pink Floyd. Part 8 contains an extract from "Obscured By Clouds".

Note that we didn't include the whole documentary soundtrack here, we just took the snippets containing music by Roger Waters (most probably). So, parts of the documentary are missing, but the music is uncut.

This song was taken from the BBC TV broadcast of the film (it's not on the LaserDisc or video release, although it's listed at the end of the tracklist). Since the music was slightly re-organised on the broadcast version of the film, the talking that can be heard during "Carrera Slow Blues" is in fact a part of the talking that's placed somewhere during "Big Theme" on the LaserDisc version.

              and 2^nd gen copy from "La Carrera Panamericana" TV broadcast

The song "Pan Am Shuffle" appears at different places during the film: first at the beginning of the film, then during the ending credits. Besides that, the length of the credits varies on the different versions of the film (LaserDisc, video or TV broadcast): since the song fades out on both LaserDisc and video releases, only the broadcast version of the film contains the very end of the song. So we combined several parts of the LaserDisc and the TV broadcast, to have the full length version.

       Length :

This film is a documentary about fractals and The Mandelbrot set. For this soundtrack, David Gilmour re-used some pieces from his previous soundtracks. Part 2 and Part 20 contain the same piece of music as Part 9 and Part 10 of "Ruby Takes A Trip" (slide guitar theme, a la "One Of These Days"). Part 6 is basically the same as Part 2 and Part 3 of "Ruby Takes A Trip" (slow theme). Part 9 and Part 10 contain the same piece of music as Part 3 of "The Art Of Tripping" (keyboards with high pitched guitar on the top, a la "Marooned"). Part 15 is the same as Part 11 of "Ruby Takes A Trip" ("On The Run" revisited). Note that the theme that can be heard during Part 12 is very similar to the central part of "High Hopes".

Note that we didn't include the whole documentary soundtrack here, we just took the snippets containing music by David Gilmour. So, parts of the documentary are missing, but the music is uncut.

The Italian film was released worldwide in 1999, with the English title "Legend Of 1900". A new soundtrack album ("Legend Of 1900") was released, and the version of "Lost Boys Calling" is slightly different from the version on the Italian soundtrack. The vocals were re-recorded, and a guitar solo by Edward Van Halen was added. Curiously, there's also a slight change in the lyrics: during the last verse, Roger sings "when I hear those seabirds cry", while on the Italian soundtrack version, it's "when she hears those seabirds cry".

Jokers Wild was a band formed during the mid-60s, featuring David Gilmour. The other musicians were John Gordon (guitar), Clive Welham (drums), Tony Sainty (bass) and David Altham (vocals). In 1965, they recorded a one-sided mini LP with these 5 songs. Note that David Gilmour played in other bands before joining Jokers Wild: The Newcomers (early 60s) and then The Ramblers (in 1962-1963).

This is an extended and remixed version. The new mix is obvious, especially on percussion, vocal lines and guitar effects. There are 8 guitar themes added just before the first verse.

There's an alternate guitar solo in the middle of the song, followed by a sax solo that isn't on the album version. The last part with the repeated female vocal lines "these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking" has 2 added lines (just after "oh babe, I must be dreaming again"): the first one with a saxophone bit, the second one with a guitar bit. The following lines are the same as on the album.

On the album version, right at the beginning of the song, there are two guys that can be heard in the background, asking to turn the Juke Box down. One of the two guys says "hey, turn that f*** Juke Box down". This sentence was edited out on the single version.

Jim Ladd's words at the very beginning were edited out. The intro has 4 more bars. An instrumental part was added between the intro and the first verse (one instrumental chorus, one instrumental verse and one chorus with female vocals, singing "radio"). Another instrumental part was added between the second chorus and the guitar solo (with some voices, including a loud sentence "The Fish Report with a Beat, in stereo!"). The ending is different from the regular version: there's no fade out, it ends abruptly with the words "in stereo".

No studio version has surfaced, although it is said that Roger Waters and the Bleeding Heart Band recorded it for the follow up to "Radio K.A.O.S." (that was never released). However, a short extract from this song can be heard in the background during "Four Minutes", on the "Radio K.A.O.S." album.

Lead vocals by Cyndi Lauper. The 2^nd guitar solo and the following keyboards solos were edited out. The song ends differently: the two lines "All in all it's just another brick in the wall" and "All and all you're just another brick in the wall" were added right after the guitar solo, to end the song abruptly (instead of the music fade-out and teacher's screams on the live album).

This is a completely new version, with new vocals by Roger Waters and a lot of dance and beatbox rhythms. Some samples from the original guitar riffs and the "hunt" part were used. The rest is almost keyboards only.

On this version, all the instrumental tracks were re-recorded (there's no orchestra or piano, and the guitar lines are different from those on the live album). Only the vocals from the guests were kept (Roger re-recorded his own vocals). The chorus after the second verse was edited, and the following instrumental part was edited out. The last chorus (with "oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning" without drums) has 2 lines instead of 8. This version fades out early.

       Recorded : 1992

       Primary source : "What God Wants part 1" single, released August 24, 1992

       Source for the tree : "What God Wants part 1" CD single

The intro is shorter: the first part with female vocals ("What God wants, Got gets, God'll help us all") was edited out, and the lines "What God wants, God gets" (during the first guitar solo) are sung only twice (instead of 3 times on the album version).

       Recorded : 1992

       Primary source : "Amused to Death" album, released 1992

       Source for the tree : "Amused to Death" CD

Roger Waters wanted to use some lines and "breathing effects" from Stanley Kubrick's "2001 : A Space Odyssey", but Kubrick refused. This explains the backward message at the beginning on "Perfect Sense": "Julia, however, in the light and visions of the issues of Stanley, we changed our minds. We have decided to include a backward message. Stanley, for you, and for all the other book partners... (screamed sentence)".

       Primary source : "Vagabond Ways" Marianne Faithfull album, released June 14, 1999

This is the song Roger Waters "offered" to Marianne Faithfull. It was composed during the early Floyd days, in 1968. It begins with the words "Do you remember me, how we used to be...", exactly the same words than those used by Waters in "Your Possible Pasts", on "The Final Cut" album. Note that this song features Roger on bass synth.
