[edit] Notes On The Tracks

  • What shall we do now was intended to appear on the original record but for some reason it wasn't. (anyone knows why?)
  • Another brick in the wall pt.3 also includes a song called "The last few bricks". This was included in the stage performances of "The wall" so that the wall should be completed in time for the pause between the sets.
  • On Hey you, the intro and first verse are missing.
  • In the end of Vera, the song "Bring the boys back home" are included.
  • Sysyphus includes the whole suite (Parts 1-4) from the album Ummagumma
  • Violence sequence is a long composition consisting of shorter, non-connected, parts, including:
  1. Pink blues
  2. Us and them (From Dark Side Of The Moon)


  • Sysyphus has been performed live only 4 times.
  • Main Theme From 'More' has been performed live 11 times.
  • Violence Sequence has been performed live 6 times.
- Note that these numbers have been counted from the book Pink Floyd: In The Flesh and that the performance list isn't complete so 

there may be a few more performances of each song. -
