Pink Floyd A Total Zabriskie Point of View - The 2nd CD NOTES This is The 2nd CD of The Complete Collection of all the known material recorded by Pink Floyd during the Sessions for the Zabriskie Point Soundtrack now released by MQR. What we at MQR present here is a modular opera set in three stages. The core of all this are clearly the eight songs of The Lost Album - 370 Roman Yards, the great find of all the research, which is the closest thing possible to the album that would have been released by MGM-Pink Floyd in 1970 if they had been sole musicians on the soundtrack of the film. The Lost Album was extended with the eight Main Outtakes, a-la Rhino Rekords release, forming the CD One of the Collection. The CD Two is mainly made by all the Other Outtakes and the Film Versions. The mixes on this Collection are either the mixes made by Pink Floyd for release, or as close as we could make using the material available. We have restored and enhanced everything using the best technology and skills available to us. The quality of these tracks varies due to the sources used, but we have done our best to make it all sound as good as possible.

Come In Number 51, Your Time Is Up (movie Trailer version) THE SOURCES Some songs used here were released officially, originally by MGM in 1970 and then in the extended edition by Rhino Records in 1997. Mostly of the outtakes come from A Journey Though Time and Space. The Film versions are based on the DVD releases of the movie. The Christmas Song was aired by John Peel in 1975. The edited Violent Sequence is from the Dark Side Immersion Set. TITLES & SONGS The name of the Collection is self-explanatory; A Total view on the Zabriskie Point Sessions. All the songs’ titles are real, although “Country Song” and “Alan’s Blues” were only working titles. We knew all the working titles with the find of The Document where all are listed. The new titles, “Oenone” and “Rain in the Country”, are taken from Omayyad, and for so many years were considered the fantasy titles of bootleggers. Last year Don Hall confirmed that he aired those songs on KPPC FM Pasadena and announced them with just those names, as they were written on the tape' boxes sent to him by Pink Floyd as their final versions. Omayyad was made from a recording of that broadcasting. CD TWO The Other Outtakes 1. Country Song (full mix) A full mix with some tries and a longer guitar solo. 2. Take Off (Version II) and Crumbling Land (film version) We decided to include this couple as a document, cleaned and restored, since is what was used to cover a couple of sequences. This Crumbling Land is the same used in the movie. Misnamed for years as one song called something like Crumbling Land - Rock Intro. 3. Crumbling Land (full mix) The "full mix" version comes from AJTT&S and is from the same take as the soundtrack version with all the tracks in the mix. 4 & 5. Love Scene 6 (The Blues and full mix) They source from Rhino Release and AJTT&S boot. Once rejected as Love Scene, it was recycled as a desert scene song and called temporarly Alan's Blues. Recorded the 16 Nov. '69. 6. Love Scene 2 (full mix - Oenone) This "full mix" version generated the final version Oenone. Here we can hear even a sex performance mimed with vocals by Roger and David. It comes from AJTT&S. 7. Love Scene 4 (piano only) It comes from the Rhino Record release. Antonioni liked and considered this beautiful piece from Rick asking to add vibes. 8 & 9. Unknown Song (Rain in the Country - alternate version and full mix) The alternate comes from the Rhino Release and the full mix from AJTT&S. Rain in the Country, the final version, came from the full mix. A Special Outtake 10. The Christmas Song We have evidence this was recorded in Roma during a pause. Probably they recorded this after a request by John Peel. Once again Alan Stiles is involved. Nick Mason is singing for the first and unique time of his Pink Foyd career. Nick is calling the song with this title in an interview of 1971. Official Soundtrack Version 11. Crumbling Land (soundtrack Edited version) This became only a document once was discovered that MGM edited in this way the real final version by Pink Floyd. Film Versions 12. Heart Beat, Pig Meat (film version) It's the only song of the whole Collection coming from the DVD release of the movie since some different mix are present in this version. 13. Crumbling Land (film version) Different from the final version of the song, it's an acoustic mix of the third track of this CD. To restore this piece the AJTT&S source was used. 14. Come In Number 51, Your Time Is Up (film version) The source for this was actually our restored version from the official Soundtrack, but only the right channel was used. This was exactly the same mix as used in the film. The edit just before the scream was recreated, and the sounds from the film inserted into the break. The song then resumes until the end. 15. Come In Number 51, Your Time Is Up (movie Trailer version) We liked to restore this short version invented by the filmakers to make the Trailer. We used the official version since the rips of VHS and DVD had a bad quality. We offer it like a bonus here without the dialogue it has on the trailer.
