The two are really completely different animals and therefore should be viewed as such. No strings. I totally forgot about this movie, I remember finding a copy of it at a local vid store back in college when I was obsessing over pf.
I'm talking about "The Violent Sequence" which Richard Wright composed specifically for the film but was rejected by Antonioni. I can't help but think that Floyd would have included it in their album even though it wasn't included in the film see "Hey You" from The Wall , and an excellent studio version of it exists on the Dark Side of the Moon Immersion Edition.
With this soundtrack clocking in at only 38 minutes, there is certainly room for it. I look forward to future entries. If you really want the Pink Floyd "grail" challenge, you might try to salvage the soundtrack to The Committee, their almost completely forgotten movie.
I have about twenty minutes, much of it interfered with by voice-overs I don't have the smarts to remove. It's not the greatest thing they ever did, but it deserves its place in their soundtrack projects and it's a mindbending movie, too. Dear god Those guys on Yeeshkul will have a fit when then see this!! I will upload it here Great job, pal! Sounds definitive to me. Both album and cover. Well done! Cool concept, but Oenone just ruins the whole thing for me I'd substitute that for The Violent Sequence.
Maybe an upgrade is in store, since more tracks are available from The Early Years box set? The next best thing was a bootleg, which, unfortunately, was taken straight from the film, and apparently includes dialogue over much of the meager minute recording.
A movie about heroin use, the film didn't make many waves in the United States, but apparently was wildly successful in France, where it has become analogous to "Easy Rider. Sweeping the cutting room floor While the band was commissioned to produce the entire soundtrack to "Zabriskie Point," to hear the Floyd tell the story, director Antonioni was more than a little fussy about the material the band came up with.
In the end, he used only three Floyd numbers in his film — most memorably "Come in Number 51, Your Time Is Up," a variation of "Careful With That Axe, Eugene," during the film's final explosion scene — and filled out the rest of the soundtrack with artists as diverse as The Grateful Dead and Patti Page.
Antonioni's finicky nature would benefit Floyd in at least one way. Oenone The name refers to Greek Mythology, similar to Sisyphus recorded a few weeks before. Oenone was a nymph married to Paris of Troy. He left her for Helen of Sparta. Oenone was an isle as well, connected to the Sisyphus story! This song came to us with the bootleg Omayyad.
It was recorded in Nov. Love Scene was the working title for it, as on the released tracks on the Rhino soundtrack. Pink Floyd tried four different musical styles to please Antonioni for that scene, including a blues. It comes from several psychedelic approaches they tried under the direction of Antonioni. Rain in the Country. Probably another of many approaches to the Love Scene, Pink Floyd tried it for Antonioni coupled with the desert scenes as well, as Don Hall confirmed.
This was recorded the 6th Dec. The final version is the one of the bootleg Omayyad. The perfect song for the final sequence. This song is the reason Pink Floyd were called to score the important scenes of the movie by Antonioni, who was impressed by Ummagumma.
There is no whispered sentence before the shout, the shout itself bursts in together with the guitar solo, long and repeated.
The end comes suddenly without the usual gradual slowing down. The Violent Sequence. It was one of the few ZP songs played live sometime in early Two years later it evolved into Us and Them. A 3rd unknown version was also written. Wrongly believed to be a sort of rock intro for a Crumbling Land take. The other is an acoustic couple guitar and harpsichord.
Pink Floyd clearly preferred the psychedelic angle for this scene like the Love Scene 1 and 3. We have testimony that Antonioni was interested by the effect of vibes and Pink Floyd recorded Love Scene 3 and 4. All written in Nov. Take Off Version II and Crumbling Land film version We decided to include this couple as a document, cleaned and restored, since is what was used to cover a couple of sequences.
This Crumbling Land is the same used in the movie. Misnamed for years as one song called something like Crumbling Land — Rock Intro.
Recorded the 16 Nov. Love Scene 2 full mix — Oenone This « full mix » version generated the final version Oenone. Here we can hear even a sex performance mimed with vocals by Roger and David. Love Scene 4 piano only It comes from the Rhino Record release. Antonioni liked and considered this beautiful piece from Rick asking to add vibes.
Rain in the Country, the final version, came from the full mix.
