The Great Gig in the Sky
"The Great Gig in the Sky" is the fifth track on ''The Dark Side of the Moon'', the 1973 album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It features voice instrumental music by Clare Torry. The song is frequently regarded as one of Richard Wright's greatest achievements.
==Composition==
The song began life as a Richard Wright chord progression, known variously as "The Mortality Sequence" or "The Religion Song". During 1972 performances of ''The Dark Side of the Moon'' song cycle (prior to the album being recorded), it was simply an organ instrumental accompanied by spoken word samples from the Bible and snippets of speeches by Malcolm Muggeridge, a British writer known for his conservative religious views. By the time the band came to record the song for ''Dark Side'', the lead instrument had been switched to a piano rather than an organ. Various sound effects were tried for the track, including recordings of NASA astronauts communicating on space missions, but none were satisfactory. Finally, a couple of weeks before the album was due to be finished, the band decided to try having a female singer "wail" over the music.〔; ; . See also 〕
