    Default What is the music at the end of Dark Side of the Moon ?

    As Dark Side of the Moon fades out at the end of Eclipse with the bass drum simulating a heart beat
    what is the piece of music beginning at 1 minute & 39 seconds then through till the end ?

    It is a classical piece or at least classical instruments playing.

    My guess is a orchestra that were recording at Abbey Rd, and were happy to contribute,
    or perhaps something that was on radio that day that was mixed in.

    Cheers / Chris

    It's not a classical piece. It's an orchestral version of the Beatles "Ticket to Ride". It is unintentionally on the recording of the heartbeat and the interview with the doorman because it was playing in the background when he was interviewed

    If anyone thinks we're mad and they can't hear it, - it was edited out of most (many, all ?) of the later recordings

    It's there on the 2011 remaster.
    It's there on the 2003 SACD remaster.
    It isn't there on the 1990s remaster.
    I'll have to dig out my copy from the late 1980s (if I can find it) and have a listen.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
