About this episode
This week, I am joined by LARRY CRANE (producer, engineer, owner of Jackpot! Recording Studio & founder/editor of Tape Op Magazine & Pink Floyd superfan ), who chose the classic music film PINK FLOYD: LIVE AT POMPEII to discuss!!! We discuss the genesis of the film and all the different versions of this film (including the super frustrating screensaver version of Live At Pompeii ), Chris's recent accidental hallucinatory viewing of the film and its many jump scares, Larry building Jackpot! Recording Studios & his early studio Laundry Rules, why artists often can't stop reworking their older bodies of work, Larry's gateway into Pink Floyd, The Benson Echorec piece of equipment used throughout this performance, Joe Boyd and the UFO Club, Larry building fuzz boxes without a switch on it, why the film is both wonderful and frustrating for Larry, the secret weapon of band member Richard Wright in this film, bands that spend over a year making an album, the accidental two-bass recording of 'One Of These Days', Syd Barrett's body of work, democracies within rock bands, monster drummer Nick Mason, is the film made for future scholars of the band or stoners, artists who don't suffer foolish questions, rock bands with zero body fat, Jonathan Richman doing an opening set before movies, and Larry getting an email for our episode from Alan Parson (the engineer of Dark Side Of The Moon) that solves a lingering question we've always had about the film! Overhead the albatross, hangs motionless upon the air (right?!?) on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie! AND OF COURSE THEY RELEASED YET ANOTHER VERSION OF PINK FLOYD LIVE AT POMPEII AFTER WE RECORDED THIS...HA!
