Notas:
The music of Pink Floyd colourful , imaginative, surrealistic, and highly inventive — lends itself very well to visual representation. Before this film was made the group had already made a reputation as Britain's first psychedelic band, who reflected in their albums and live performances the spirit and freedom of the late 'Sixties when flower power and "mind expansion" reigned supreme.
The group started playing in 1966 and originally consisted of Syd Barrett, vocals and guitar, Roger Waters, bass, Richard Wright, keyboards, and Nick Mason, drums. Barrett subsequently left the group and was replaced by Dave Gilmour. Shot in and around an ancient amphitheatre among the ruins of old Pompeii, Pink Floyd treat the viewer to a stunning audio-visual experience, the like of which has not been seen outside their sell-out concerts.
This session was skilfully recorded in the beautiful sun-splashed arena by day, and amidst the eerily-lit scene of volcanic destruction by night, and is a perfect transition from audio to video media. The set begins and ends with the massive composition "Echoes" from the album "Meddle" and also includes the following titles: Careful with that axe Eugene. A saucerful of secrets. One of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces. Set the controls for the heart of the sun. Mademoiselle Nobs.
The whole film is an audio and visual triumph and when first released was hailed by the press as a "technically perfect production."
