Synopsis

Product Description
Back in 1979, way before the flood of tribute albums swamped your local record store's bins, this curiosity featuring disco versions of Pink Floyd songs came out on Warner Bros. Now, usually when you put the words 'disco' and 'tribute' together in the same phrase, the result is not going to be pretty. What does, however, make this album reissue-worthy is that two of the folks behind this, Claude Engel and Jannick Top, were members of the legendary French prog group Magma, and they were no doubt instrumental in the adventurous choice of tunes on this record. Sure, 'Money' and 'Have a Cigar', which was a minor hit, are not such a stretch, but disco versions of 'Interstellar Overdrive', 'Arnold Layne' and 'One of These Days'?! Not even Syd Barrett in his wildest dreams could have imagined such a thing! It's easily the most danceable Pink Floyd album ever!
