yes yes.

also, just for shits and giggles, try doing this
basically, echoes is 23 minutes long, so is the last bit of 2001:space odyssey. kubrick asked floyd to contribute some of the score for that movie, they turned him down for whatever reason. roger waters later quoted as saying that this was one of the few career moves he ever made that he "truly regretted". if that was fun, then you've also got the whole dark side/wizard of oz thing too.

anywho. god i love floyd. and my mate wiley has a mint condition dark side lp, with (unverified) signatures from all band members. he went to have the signatures checked out, the collector said floyd were doing so many drugs at thats stage, no two signatures look the same - but still offered him £700 for it. worst bit is his girlfriend found it for him in a charity shop.
