Not a problem! \:D/
Amazing clip isn't it? Went through a period of watching it over and over when I came across it.
Bet you it's the best bit of the film and we've saved ourselves £'s by not buying it on DVD? :lol:

is this the album version of Absolutely Curtains? it sure is sped-up but other than that, it sounds like another take...

I am one of the few Floyd fans to like their shorter 1965-72 songs the best. That means after Piper and SOS, this is my favorite Floyd LP.

I think there are good songs on that album, but with a often lacklustre performance.

I gave it a 9. Very very good, underrated album. Been playing it a lot lately. Not a bad track on it. Loses a point for the chanting outro at the end.

I gave it an 8.


Great album! I listen to It quite often. Childhood's End, Wot's Uh The Deal, Stay and Mudmen are my favorites.
