Two days ago, Roger Waters released a new version of the song “Money“. He eliminated all the magnificent arrangements made by the other members of Pink Floyd, in a sort of egocentric attitude. This new version (2023) is absolutely senseless for me, making a boring song from a masterpiece recorded in 1972/3. I think that every single sound recorded in 1972/3 is loved and wanted to be heard in every other versions. To eliminate guitar parts from a song full of them is really senseless. There´s no Pink Floyd without DG guitars, Rick Wright´s warm touch and the feeling of Nick Mason. This 2023 version demonstrates that Roger Waters wouldn´t have shone by himself in the 70´s. It was the magical work of the four that made such magnificent albums as The Dark Side Of The Moon and others. I think that what Roger did is a sort of slowest backing track of the song, so I took it and add some guitars; an overdriven one on the riff, the classical one with tremolo, some extra arrangements where the saxo should be , and the solo parts. This was made JUST FOR FUN, Hope you enjoy it, Hughs, J. Zuoza.
