Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by

On the 22nd of March, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the critically acclaimed 1973 Pink Floyd album The Dark Side of the Moon, collaborators of the Pink Floyd creative side gathered at the Odeon Luxe in London for an exclusive playback of the 2023 Dolby Atmos Immersive Audio mix of The Dark Side of the Moon as part of the recently released box set celebrating 50 years of the classic album.

In attendance was Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, who talked about the cultural impact of the album and addressed his feelings on Roger Waters re-recording a new version of the album with a release planned for the not-so-distant future.

Speaking at a playback of ‘The Dark Side of the Moon‘ in Dolby Atmos Immersive Audio at the Odeon Luxe in London, Nick said: “I heard the rumour that Roger was working on his own version of it. There was this suggestion that this was going to be a spoiler, and Roger was going to go head-to-head with the original version, and so on.

“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.”

Nick doesn’t think music should be untouchable and thinks it is great when songs are reinterpreted or changed because it means they are still evolving and new things are being found in them.

The 79-year-old musician, who performs early Pink Floyd tracks with his band Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets, which features Spandau Ballet’s Gary Kemp, said: “One of the things I like about any sort of existing piece of music is to develop it or find some extra quality in it.

“I just like this idea of developing music rather than trying to retain it exactly as it was.“
