From Loudersound.
Pink Floyd have shared a newly restored video clip of their seminal track Echoes from their equally legendary 1972 Live At Pompeii film.
The video heralds the release of Pink Floyd At Pompeii – MCMLXXII, which is being released to cinemas worldwide on April 24 through Sony Music Vision and Trafalgar Releasing and IMAX® Worldwide. Tickets go on sale from March 5 at 2pm GMT/9amET/6amPT.
“Ever since my dad brainwashed me as a kid by playing The Dark Side of The Moon on repeat, Pink Floyd has been my favourite band,” adds Wilson. “They are my “Beatles“, deeply ingrained in my musical DNA. I first saw Pompeii from a grainy print at a local cinema. It made an incredible impression on me with its untethered and exploratory rock music made by four musicians that seemed to epitomise the notion of intellectual cool. It was an honour to remix the soundtrack to accompany Lana Topham’s incredible restoration of the film, which looks like it could’ve been filmed yesterday.”
The new version has been hand restored, frame-by-frame, from the original 35mm negative, which was discovered in five dubiously labelled cans within Pink Floyd’s archives by Lana Topham, Director of Restoration for Pink Floyd. The film was scanned in 4K using advanced techniques to ensure the finest, sharpest detail.
“Since 1994, I have searched for the elusive film rushes of Pink Floyd At Pompeii, so the recent discovery of the 1972 original 35mm cut negative was a very special moment,” enthuses Topham. “The newly restored version presents the first full 90-minute cut, combining the 60-minute source edit of the performance with the additional Abbey Road Studios documentary segments filmed shortly after.”
