Pink Floyd's Obscured by Clouds on Audiophile-Quality Vinyl LP: 1972 Soundtrack to La Vallee Remastered from the Original Analog Tapes by Bernie Grundman, James Guthrie, and Joel Plante
Pink Floyd's seventh album, Obscured by Clouds, was originally recorded as the soundtrack to the French film La Vallee (the band's second Barbet Schroeder soundtrack following 1969's More), but was also released as a standalone album in 1972 and anchored by the single "Free Four." Also featuring the deep-cut favorite "Wots...Uh the Deal" and breathtaking "Childhood's End," the record is here remastered from the original analog master tapes by Bernie Grundman, James Guthrie, and Joel Plante. Long overdue but finally a reality, this audiophile-grade analog pressing of Obscured by Clouds sounds brilliant.
