Pink Floyd recorded an album in a few days at a castle

Obscured by Clouds is an album by the British rock band Pink Floyd, recorded during two quick stays in 1972. The musicians composed and performed most of their material directly at the Château d'Hérouville, under the surprised eyes of the technicians. The director Barbet Schroeder described to them the atmosphere sought for each scene, and the tracks were conceived without thorough preparation.
