love it! Quote: The band played the instrumental track to Torry and asked her to improvise a vocal. At first she struggled to find what was needed, but then she was inspired to sing as if she were an instrument herself. Torry performed two complete takes, the second more emotional than the first, but when David Gilmour asked for a third take she stopped halfway through, feeling that she was becoming repetitive and had already done the best she could. The final album track was assembled from all three takes. The members of the band were deeply impressed by Torry's performance but did not tell her this and she left the studio, with a standard £30 flat fee, under the impression that her vocals would not make the final cut. She only became aware that she had been included in the final mix when she picked up the album at a local record store and saw her name in the credits. In 2005, an undisclosed out-of-court settlement in Torry's favour included giving her vocal composition credit.

When I was younger my reaction was similar to yours. I was caught up in the spectical of it all, and enamored by the sounds. But now as I'm older, and have witnessed loved ones pass, and after reading a bit about what this song was meant to be, I realize that this is actually a very melancholy song, and it destroys me now, it makes me weep. It is about someone on their deathbed. The last few moments of life as your body shuts down, and the struggle against the dying of the light, the fight to stay alive just a few more seconds before you drift off to that great gig in the sky.

Clare Torry. Taking us through the transition from life to death, without a word. ‘There was a bit of direction given: they said, 'Sorry, we've got no words, no melody line, just a chord sequence - just see what you can do with it.' She was only there for a couple of hours. As I remember, she did two or three tracks, from which we assembled the best bits for a master version. But somewhere in the archives are the bits we didn't use, and I'm sure it would make for an interesting remix version one day." - Alan Parsons.’

This is off the album, "Dark Side of the Moon", which came out in 1973 and stayed on the charts for 18 years. The whole album is great and it is meant to be listened to completely in one listen. Anything Pink Floyd is a trip. This album made them superstars. Their previous album in 1972 was recorded at Pompei, Italy outdoors in the former arena, and played to the ghosts of the people who were killed by the volcanic eruption so long ago. Remember when covid 1st started and people were locked down, bands started playing concerts with no one in the audience to be shown later. Well Pink Floyd was ahead of every one else by 47 years! In the Echoes of Pompei album you see them as young 20 somethings. Amazing music from such youngsters. Of course the Beatles broke up before anyone was 30. There was a lot of talent that came out of the 1960's and 1970's.

Clare Torry was mainly a pop singer that Alan Parsons brought in for this song. Her first attempt, she was adding "ooh baby," etc. David Gilmour stopped her and said no - no lyrics. Roger Waters told her that this was a song about dying, "so have a sing on that." The original title of the song was The Mortality Sequence. The story varies a bit here, but she essentially did a full take. They liked the direction and asked her to do it again. That is the take you hear here. She started a 3rd take, but stopped and told them that she could not do it better than the 2nd take.

As everyone will note, this album (Dark Side of the Moon) is actually one long composition -- the ultimate concept album, encapsulating mortality and the stages of grief. In its context on the side, it makes perfect sense -- it's the recognition of mortality, then rejection, then despair, then acceptance. Genius improvised vocals over a genius backing track. Also superlative engineering by Alan Parsons -- for many years, if I was going to buy speakers I took this album to the shop to test everything speakers are supposed to reproduce faithfully.

Maggie, your analytical focus was such that you didn't consciously pick up on the melancholy vibe...but your subconscious did, hence the goosebumps. You're spot on when you used the word "wailing". As others have said, this is about death and expressing grief, and eventual surrender to the inevitable. Did you notice that her final phrase was unfinished? Taken away untimely. Melancholy is threaded thru most of Pink Floyd's work. There is a reason why music of this era was called "album-oriented rock" (AOR). Reaction or not, listen to the whole album in one sitting, get the true experience.

I’ve been listening to DSOTM since the early eighties and this always gives me shivers, even after thousands of listens.

David Gilmour (guitars) is playing a lap steel guitar. Popular in country music, it is a horizontal guitar on a stand with a fretless neck, and played with a heavy ,metal slide.

You HAVE to listen to it in context of the whole album and it’s even more impressive

One of my favorite ones is the live version of On The Turning Away from the Delicate Sound Of Thunder concert ❤

On of the most amazing, moving pieces of music and vocals you'll ever hear! The little voice you couldn't quite hear was actually Linda McCartney. Pre recorded with a few others at Abbey Rd studios at the time 😊

Welcome to your first of a thousand listens to this masterpiece. Goosebumps every time. For 40+ years.

To add: You picked the best version: The original. Never has been duplicated. Just copied. It was done in 2.5 takes on a Sunday evening. All singing was improvised. She got 30 pounds (time & 1/2).

First and foremost. Every album from Pink Floyd is definitely a personal mental/spiritual adventure for sure. Now keeping that in mind. Picture a petite redhead who walks out onto stage and out of her vocal box you hear this for the very first time back in the 70's.

At 6:00, if you're going to analyze the title of the song, the emphasis is not "The Great Gig", the emphasis is on "In the Sky".

Mate this is about death. Rebellion, sadness, grieve and acceptance. That's what Claire is expressing with her voice...

I saw you reacting to this song and I knew I HAD to listen to it… knew you’d be stunned… 50 years old and it still gives me chills And in context with the entire album… wow. There’s a reason it’s considered one of the greatest albums of all time

Death: fear, resistance, anger then acceptance and peace. The song says so much yet without any lyrics.
