Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii (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 hilarious interviews with the band (don't miss Waters raving about the great economical collapse, and Nick whining about the crust on the pie).

Can't remember how many times I saw this in the cinema in the 70's. Great nights.

Very cool! I have the full version on CD, but like this version. I have listened to this many times on my computer. I think Pink Floyd is like modern art, you like it or you don't. Most people just don't get it.

These guys are truly legendary. And this is among one of their finest moments. The music is monumental, and is beautifully emphasised by the architecture and the focused and differing personalities of the Band. I can't wait to share this with my Son.
