Roger Waters has shared new solo versions of Pink Floyd tracks ‘Speak To Me’ and ‘Breathe’ from his forthcoming re-recorded version of ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’.The album – titled ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon Redux’, is Waters’ full-length reimagining of the band’s iconic 1973 album, released next month to celebrate its 50th anniversary.After sharing a version of ‘Time’ last month, he has now released two new previews of the album.“The original ‘Dark Side Of The Moon’ feels in some ways like the lament of an elder being on the human condition,” Waters said in a statement.“But Dave, Rick, Nick and I were so young when we made it, and when you look at the world around us, clearly the message hasn’t stuck.
