Description:

Roger Waters' reimagining of Pink Floyd's classic "The Dark Side of the Moon," one of the greatest albums in rock history, is now available! Fifty years after its original recording with Pink Floyd, Roger Waters has reinterpreted one of the most celebrated and acclaimed albums in history in the spectacularly ambitious "The Dark Side of the Moon Redux," now available. Waters releases The Dark Side of the Moon Redux, a spectacularly ambitious reinterpretation of one of the most celebrated and acclaimed albums in history, recorded as Pink Floyd when Waters was only 29 years old, an extraordinary multidimensional meditation on the human experience, the passage of time, the descent into madness, and the abyss.As its opening line predicts, "The memories of an old man are the deeds of a man in his prime," Waters transcends this half-century gap with The Dark Side of the Moon Redux, reinterpreting and embellishing his original creation with a new perspective gleaned from his own life experiences, philosophy, and the wisdom of his age. Waters' extraordinary vocal performance adds fresh profundity to his classic lyrics, and a rough wisdom to his philosophical new creations. The production by Waters and Gus Seyffert whittles down Pink Floyd's psychedelic orchestrations to something rawer and more subtle. Each of the ten original tracks on The Dark Side of the Moon has been re-imagined and, like the originals, seamlessly spliced together to form one epic composition, and the LP format of The Dark Side of the Moon Redux includes a final track, a 13-minute original song inspired by the re-recording, will be included as a bonus.The original "The Dark Side of the Moon" feels, in a way, like an elder's lament for the human condition. But when we wrote the song, Dave, Rick, Nick, and I were very young. So we started thinking about what the wisdom of an 80-year-old might bring to our reinterpretation. When I first told Gus and Sean about re-recording "The Dark Side of the Moon," they all thought I was crazy. But the more I thought about it, the more I thought, 'That's not the point. I'm very proud of the fact that we were able to join hands half a century later and create a work that can proudly stand alongside the original," says Roger Waters.
