OFF:Darkside of the rainbow

[John A Swartz]

I haven't tried this, but I heard it mentioned on the radio.  2 DJ's at
Boston-area rock station WAAF apparently talked about this a year or so
ago, and recently mentioned that eMpTVy reported it as well.

I don't know if/when I'll get to try this (I've got Dark Side of the
Moon on CD, but don't own a copy of the Wizard of Oz - maybe I'll have
to rent it sometime), but does anyone know of any place (on the web?)
that mentions all the similarities?  The DJ's mentioned several spots
in the movie where the music lines up perfectly with the film (I think
one spot was when Dorothy listens for the Tinman's heart and you hear
a heartbeat on the album (I forget the track).

Sounds really wacky - I think Dark Side of the Moon was sort of Pink
Floyd's attempt at doing the next "Sgt. Pepper" and getting over-indulgent
in the studio with effects (as far as SONG content goes, it seems like
that takes something of a backseat to all the effects used on the album) -
it would be interesting to me to find that there was a deeper plan behind
all of what they did.
