MAROONED
Comment: This song won a Grammy award in 1995 for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. Info Source: The Pink Floyd Encyclopedia by Vernon Fitch Comment:
In the CD booklet "otto" in the little head symbol is Italian, indicating
"page 8". Comment:
The song begins with the sounds of breaking surf and shore birds calling,
a melancholy oceanic theme, that develops into the singing of great whales.
The emotion seems to be inspired by the plight of endangered species of
whales. Comment:
A working title for this song was "The Whale Piece".
