Hollywood

Hollywood  0:38
Studio recording late March 1969 
* Unreleased
     (written by David Gilmour)

Produced by the Pink Floyd
Recorded in France or London, over eight days in late March
Supervised by Barbet Schroeder

Instrumental

One of three pieces recorded for the More soundtrack, and used in the film but never released on record, Hollywood is a guitar solo piece, an improvisation around a chord progression from the song Cymbaline. It is a good tune, reminiscent of A Spanish Piece in its feel.

Hollywood appears in the film at the bar on Ibiza where Stefan asks for directions to Dr. Wolf's house. The 38-second segment which appears is probably just a part of a longer recording, which is likely to be one or two minutes in length.
