Pink Floyd to release newly restored version of iconic 1972 show in Pompeii in IMAX after over 40 years
A newly restored version of the 1972 concert film Pink Floyd at Pompeii - MCMLXXII is heading to IMAX and cinemas worldwide this April.
Lana Topham, who led the restoration, said: 'Since 1994, I have searched for the elusive film rushes of Pink Floyd At Pompeii, so the recent discovery of the 1972 original 35mm cut negative was a very special moment. 'The newly restored version presents the first full 90-minute cut, combining the 60-minute source edit of the performance with the additional Abbey Road Studios documentary segments filmed shortly after.' The acclaimed documentary directed by Adrian Maben was filmed when the prog rock legends played the first ever concert at the ancient Roman Amphitheatre in October 1971 (L-R Roger Waters, Nick Mason, David Gilmour,and Rick Wright)
