Note1 - "More" outtakes 05:42

Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, March 1969

Primary source : BBC broadcast ("Laying Down Tracks"), June 1969

Source for the tree : unknown gen from BBC broadcast

This is in fact a documentary about the multi-track recording technique, broadcast by the BBC in June 1969, under the title "Laying Down Tracks". One can hear outtakes from the "More" recording sessions: first, some unreleased instrumental music, then "Cirrus Minor" and at last the keyboards intro to "Main Theme".

On some RoIOs, this BBC docmumentary is wrongly referred as being "The Committee" soundtrack.





"Zabriskie Point"

Alternate mono mix. Extended intro (before the first organ notes). Sounds and background noises are differently mixed (especially the orchestra snippets). The last part is edited.

Recorded : Rome, November - December 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" soundtrack, released 1970

This song was described by David Gilmour as "a kind of country and western number which he [Michelangelo Antonioni, the film's director] could have gotten done better by any number of American bands. But he chose ours... Very strange".



5 - Crumbling Land (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) - extended 05:44

Recorded : Rome, November - December 1969

This version is basically the same as the regular version from the soundtrack album, but the ending with cars and street noises is uncut.

Recorded : Rome, November - December 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" film, released 1970

Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point" LaserDisc

Alternate mono mix, with different vocal tracks.



7 - Come in Number 51, Your Time is Up (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 04:59

Recorded : Rome, November - December 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" soundtrack, released 1970

"Careful With That Axe, Eugene" revisited.



8 - Come in Number 51, Your Time is Up (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) - film version 05:10

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point" film, released 1970

Alternate mono mix, organ mixed louder, one guitar track edited out. Note that the "reprise", after the abrupt cut, only appears on the LaserDisc version.



9 - Love Scene - Version 4 (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 06:43

Recorded : Rome, November 16, 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

Pink Floyd made at least 6 attempts to compose music that could fit in the desert sex sequence of the film. Finally, none of the Floyd's versions was chosen (the music accompanying the love scene in the film was composed and played by Grateful Dead's guitarist Jerry Garcia). Version 4 is a quiet instrumental piano piece, played by Rick Wright.



10 - Love Scene - Version 6 (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 07:24

Recorded : Rome, November 16, 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

Source for the tree : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD

Version 6 is a totally different approach than version 4. This is a blues jam, played by the whole band, not very far from the blues number they used to play during their live performances in 1970 and 1971.



11 - Unknown Song (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 06:00

Recorded : Rome, December 6, 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

The acoustic guitar duo has some themes from "The Narrow Way Part 1". The bass lines appearing in this outtake were later developed in "Atom Heart Mother" ("Funky Dung").



12 - Rain in the Country (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 06:45

Recorded : Rome, December 6, 1969

Primary source : ?

Source for the tree : "Omay Yad" RoIO CD

Alternate take from "Unknown Song" (same basic track, but different lead and overdubs, different edits). The title "Rain In The Country" was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.



13 - Country Song (Waters, Gilmour, Mason, Wright) 04:37

Recorded : Rome, December 12, 1969

Primary source : "Zabriskie Point - Extended Soundtrack" CD, released 1997

14 - Oenone (uncredited) 06:21

Recorded : Rome, November - December, 1969

Primary source : ?

Source for the tree : "Omay Yad" RoIO CD

"Oenone", from Greek mythology, is the name of a nymph deserted by her husband, Paris, for Helen of troy. Some prefer to spell this outtake "Oneone", because it would be pronounced "oh-nee-oh-nee", the same way as the end of Zabriskie Point's director name, Michelangelo AntONIONI. This title was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.



15 - Fingal's Cave (uncredited) 01:49

Recorded : Rome, November - December, 1969

Primary source : ?

Source for the tree : "Omay Yad" RoIO CD

"Fingal's Cave" is the name of a large cavern on Staffa islet in the Hebrides, West Scotland. This title was probably given by the "Omay Yad" RoIO LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.
