Question

A bassline on this album opens with (read slowly) B, high B, short F-sharp, low B, (-5[1])low F-sharp. In the introduction to a song on this album, the bass alternates E and F-sharp every two bars, and a roto-tom-heavy drum solo follows fourteen measures of recordings from an antique shop. Clare Torry ad-libbed melismatic (10[3])wordless vocals to a song on (10[1])this album (10[1])over keyboard chords (10[1])and spoken lyrics that discuss the fear of dying. For a song on this album in 7/4 (“seven-four”) time, Alan Parsons engineered a tape loop of (10[1])cash registers (10[1])and (10[3])jingling (-5[1])coins. (10[4])Lyrics like (10[2])“the lunatic (10[1])is on the grass” (10[2])from this album’s song “Brain Damage/Eclipse” pay (10[1])tribute to Syd Barrett. For 10 points, “The Great Gig in the Sky” and “Money” are (10[1])on what 1973 Pink Floyd (-5[1])concept album whose cover depicts (10[1]-5[1])a prismatic (10[1])spectrum? ■END■
