I guess they don't watch the Wizard of Oz while they listen to the album...
Somewhere, over the rainbow...
pcprogrammer:
Great album for sure.
Still have the vinyl. Also have "Animals" another good album in my opinion and thought I also had "Wish you were here", but can't find it.
Brings back memories of them "good old days" :-DD

We used to play the 4 ch version of this album all the time - the sound effects bit in Money is really cool as it spins around the room. I don't think the overall audio quality of the 4 channel version is as good as the stereo version, but the effects make up for it.

An original quadraphonic mix. Now this is a version I would like to experience personally.
Non of this modern 5.1 Dolby garbage.

meh. Still pretty good, even if you're listening to the YouTube version on laptop speakers...

For years, no DECADES, the US magazine "Consumer Reports" recommended it for that purpose.
I somewhat prefer WYWH.

My close friend, now passed on since June 2019 - Mr Peter Whitehead - was cameraman, friends and flat mate to PF, back in the sixties. He was also tour cameraman for The Stones, friend of Marianne Faithfull and Michael Caine, et cetera. I worked with him and repaired his Macs and PCs, and any other technology he needed maintaining, from ‘99 until around 2015. Lovely chap and very generous with his time and I have many fond memories.
Look for “Tonite let’s all make love in London” - possibly his most well known film. I have a copy but I can’t share due to respect and copyright; you’ll find it elsewhere I’m sure.
That’s my knowledge for the day. Hehe
