Clare Torry's Rare Live Performances of 'Great Gig in the Sky' with Pink Floyd

Clare Torry, the vocalist behind Pink Floyd's iconic 'Great Gig in the Sky' from 1973's 'Dark Side of the Moon', had a fraught initial studio session with the band. Neither party was impressed: David Gilmour recalled Torry looked 'like a nice English housewife,' while Torry admitted she would have preferred working with The Kinks. Despite this, Torry performed live with Pink Floyd on several occasions. She appeared at the Rainbow Theatre in London shortly after the album's release, with Roger Waters at Wembley Stadium in 1987 during his 'K.A.O.S. on the Road Tour', and with the David Gilmour-led Pink Floyd at Knebworth in 1990. In 2004, a legal dispute over songwriting credit was resolved in Torry's favor, entitling her to royalties. The article includes rare concert footage of these performances.
