Hi everybody
Just joined the network

A question: From which albums is the "Echoes" cover made of?

Just for a quiz...
Have some thought, want to hear more

See you on the Dark Side of the Moon

It has references to almost every album, and to several songs as well (the axe relates to "Careful With That Axe, Eugene". I don't have the album in front of me right now, but here's what I can remember:
-The diver:Wish You Were Here
-The soldier:The Final Cut
-The glass flasks:Saucerful of Secrets
-The cow:Atom Heart Mother
-The bike:Bike(song)
-Man on fire:Wish You Were Here
-Metal masques:The Division Bell
-The bed:Momentary Lapse of Reason
There's a few more, but I can't remember from memory. You should be able to figure it out. :smile:

Here's a few more:
-The hammers: The Wall
-Man with light bulbselicate Sound of Thunder
-The pig: Animals
-The airplane: Learning To Fly
-Rubber masques: The Wall
-The moon mobile: Dark Side of the Moon
You can also see the artwork to Shine On, Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Meddle in the pictures on the walls. The whole cover is a surreal photograph somewhat in the flavour of the Ummagumma album cover. There's a few more references I'm not so sure about:
-The mirror:?
-The fishbowl:?
-The maid:?
Any ideas anyone?

the maid is from 'a momentary lapse of reason' and the fishbowl is from the 'wish you were here' single. also the dancers from 'a collection of great dance songs' and the masks from the newest live wall set. much more but too lazy to type it all...

The prisms on the window ledges are a reference to DSOTM also...

Cheers,

Everytime I watch it I discover something new. Just found a coin - Money? And little pigs and the hammers.

The suitcase with DSOTM stickers on it is from the WYWH cover art.

I downloaded Echoes EPK and watched all 17 minutes. Storm Thongerson told some interesting facts about the inflatable pig and Echoes cover.
