Originally filmed in 1971, and set in an ancient Roman Amphitheater, Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii - MCMLXXII is a fabulous concert film showing the British band in their progressive rock heyday.
Your timing, as last week I listened to my top 50 Floyd songs (though less representing their early days but with a kick from 'Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in Cave and Grooving with a Pict'). 'The Wall' returned to being my favourite though that story is incomplete without the highly underrated 'The Final Cut'.
Absolutely agree with your assessment of The Final Cut, as it represents Roger Waters both at his best and most subtle. I’ve always liked the Floyd without completely loving them. But their best work is magnificent! And the concert film rocks, both sound and vision wise.
