My mother always reads the last chapter of a book first because she can't stand not knowing how it ends! :lol:

She doesn't watch the end of films first though...I suppose it's different. ](*,)

n00b question: in a documentary about DSOTM, Rick noted Miles Davis influence when he was creating chords for "Breathe (In the Air)". In MPF_PinkFloydFAQ.pdf it says that Davis was a big influence on "Us and Them". Probably nothing special, but was just thinking if it is a factual error or not...

Yes.

I dont know if he was influenced by Miles for Us and them, but the tune existed for awhile.
He didnt say anything about that in that documentary.
