| Dark Side of the Moon - Immersion Edition |
'The Mortality Sequence' was the instrumental piece between 'Time/Breathe (reprise)' and 'Money' in the early performances of the song which later were recorded for 'Dark Side Of The Moon'. It has also been known as 'Variation'. It was mainly keyboard chords and dubbed speeches and bible readings. This was (thank God) replaced by Clare Torry's vocals and made into 'The Great Gig In The Sky'
