Listen to Roger Waters’ New Version of Dark Side of the Moon 2023 – Video Clip

Roger Waters has re-recorded Dark Side of the Moon from scratch and you can now listen to an additional preview of the new recording below. Nick Mason, who had a listen to the new recording a short while back had very positive things to say about it. “He actually sent me a copy of what he was working on and I wrote to him and said, ‘Annoyingly, it’s absolutely brilliant!‘ It was and is. It’s not anything that would be a spoiler for the original at all, it’s an interesting add-on to the thing.” Take a listen to a short clip, that Roger shared on his twitter just now.

Roger Waters Live in Manchester 2023 Review and Photos

The Roger Waters concert in Manchester last night was the last UK concert date and the band will have a much earned rest until November 2023 where they kick off the This Is Not A Drill Tour again. It was a hot night in many ways. There was a lot of politics in the show with Roger telling people who had a problem with that to F**k off to the bar! The band were on absolute top form and sounded amazing playing to an amazing audience. A fiery Roger gave a fantastic performance especially considering he is only 4 years younger that Bob Dylan at 79, but his brother John Waters was only 2 years younger when he sadly passed away last year.
