Roger Waters släpper "The Dark Side of the Moon Redux", en episkt ambitiös omtolkning av ett av de mest kända och hyllade albumen någonsin. Omtolkningen markerar att det var 50 år<br/>sedan originalalbumet av Pink Floyd släpptes.<br/><br/>"The Dark Side of the Moon Redux" ger Waters tillfället att omtolka sina originalskapelser med nya perspektiv som bygger på hans personliga upplevelser, filosofi och ålderns visdom som betonar originalets filosofiska, sociala och politiska teman. Hans klassiska texter får nya lager av djup och visdom. Waters och Gus Seyfferts produktion förvandlar Pink Floyds psykedeliska orkestreringar till något råare och mer känsligt, men inte mindre experimentellt uppfinningsrikt, utsökt strukturerat och rikt på musikalisk intertext.

Från en direktsänd FM-sändning inspelad på Hammersmith Odeon, London, England 10 juni 1976. 2 CD.

Eric Sardinas är en excentrisk gitarrvirtuos och var i sin ungdom självaste Steve Vais protegé. Sardinas tog sig fram den hårda vägen, ofta som gatumusikant innan Vai gav honom en chans och ett skivkontrakt. Han har turnerat med både Vai och Joe Satriani så det råder ingen tvivel om att Sardinas kan spela gitarr. Det här är rock som kryddats med slidegitarr och blues. "Midnight Junction" är ett varierat album som kommer att tilltala fler än bara de som är intresserade av gitarrakrobatik. Legendaren Charlie Musselwhite gästar på en låt.

Roger Waters The Lockdown Sessions is a collection of songs that were home-recorded and filmed during the Covid lockdown between 2020 and 2021. Also included with the release is "Comfortably Numb 2022" which was recorded during Waters This Is Not A Drill North American tour.<br/><br/>The Lockdown Sessions were produced by Roger Waters and Gus Seyffert.

In addition, Waters' new version of the classic Pink Floyd song "Comfortably Numb" appears as the final track on The Lockdown Sessions.<br/><br/>Waters commented:<br/><br/>"Our Us and Them Tour lasted three years...At every gig we did an encore after the show ended with Comfortably Numb...the encore was always Mother...I can't remember why I decided to do other songs...Anyway, at some point after the tour ended...I started thinking, 'It could be an interesting album, all those encores'... "The Encores". "Yeah, that sounds good!" Then...I'm in England to do the Ginger Baker tribute gig on a Tuesday night at the Hammersmith Odeon with Eric Clapton and...the next Saturday marching from the Australian Embassy to Parliament Square to give a speech in support of Julian Assange, then damn it, Covid...Schlummmm! For me, it was Friday, March 13, 2020. Lockdown! So much for the "Encores" project. Unless...<br/>We stuck C. Numb at the end of the collection, as a fitting exclamation point to close this circle of love."

Alla låtar inspelade i Sigma Sound Studios, Philadelphia, PA juli-augusti 1974.
