re: Pink Floyd’s Time solo

Back when "Time" was made they actually had a bunch of alarm clocks set up to go off.

I posted this in another Floyd thread just the other day - I think it was Alan Parsons who did that on his own, prior to the band showing up (Alan Parsons engineered DSOM) to record the album. They were working on Time and Parsons said, "Guys - I just did this before we started", played it for them and David said, "That's great. Put it on there."

But, yeah, imagine the precision required to mic up a clock shop and get a bunch of clocks synchronized to the second so the alarms all go off at the same time.
