You'll notice I haven't really updated that website in 2 years and it's nowhere near complete.


Unabeefer is correct. The actual live music in Pompeii was filmed from 4-7 October 1971 (dates given by Nick himself in his book's chronology). This original version of the film was released in 1972. But the idea to film the band in the studio, according to Maben on the DVD's making-of featurette, was hit upon after the film's first release while Dark Side was still being recorded. Footage for the second version, with interviews and "overdubs" which weren't serious attempts at the master (according to Dave in a recent interview), was filmed in 1973, edited into the existing film, and given a much wider theatrical release in 1974.


Dark Side of The Moon was recorded between,
6/1/72 - 6/3/72: AR Studio 3
6/6/72 - 6/10/72: AR Sutido 2
6/13/72 - 6/17/72: AR Studio 2
6/20/72 - 6/25/72: AR Studio 2
10/10,11,12,17, 25-27/72: AR Studios
1/18/73: AR Studio 2
1/19/73 - 1/21/73: AR Studio 3
1/24/73 - 1/27/73: AR Studio 3
1/29/73 - 1/31/73: AR Studio 3
2/1/73: AR Studio 3

So its possable. I stand corrected.

here is the part you are referring to from Daves interview;
"...There is quite a fair bit of footage in the studio during the making of Dark Side. Its a bit of a con it wasnt the real recording. Its me sitting on a stool re-doing an overdub to Eclipse, with the same guitar, but when the record was actually finished. And those bits of Roger pretending to do On the run where he hadn't done it in the first place!"

I was not arguing this, but nowhere does Dave say 1973.

The Original English premiere at the Edinborugh Festival was 1972, this did not include the additional footage.

The US premiere was in 1974, this did include the additional footage.

SO whatever. lets move on.
I'd like to hear your verson of a "remix" if you decide to do it
