The Story Of 

Marvin Gaye & Pink Floyd's 

Unreleased Album: 

The Wall concert was only performed

 a handful of times each in four cities: 

Los Angeles, Uniondale (Long Island), 

Dortmund, and London (at Earl's Court).

 The primary 'tour' occurred in 1980, 

but the band performed

 eight shows at Dortmund 

(14–20 February 1981)

 and five more shows at 
Earl's Court (13–17 June) 

with the intention of integrating 

the shows into 
the upcoming movie. 

The resulting footage was

 deemed substandard and scrapped;

 years later, 
Roger Waters has
 given conflicted answers

 on the status of the
 concert films stating from

 "trying to locate this 
footage for historical purposes

 but was unsuccessful 
and considers it to be

 lost forever" to "I have all of the film

 but am reluctant to release". 

There are several unofficial videos of 

the entire live show in circulation 

and some footage is shown on 

the Behind the Wall documentary. 

During Marvin Gaye’s
 stay in Belgium,

 he would frequent across
 the pond to the UK, 

specifically as he was on
 the road himself for

 “The Heavy Love Affair Tour”.

 As Gaye found himself
 an off day in London, 

he allegedly visited the 
Pink Floyd concert at Earl’s Court, 

and was invited to join them 
on stage for a rendition of

 “Let’s Get it On” 

over Pink Floyd’s 

“Shine On You Crazy Diamond”.

 A recent piece of audio footage 

of this performance has been located. 

After the chemistry of this 
impromptu performance, 

Waters and Gaye
 discussed the possibility of 

recording these collaborations 
for a possible release 

in what would be considered an 

early version of what people now

 would call a mash-up record. 

In late 1981,
 before returning back to the States,

 Marvin Gaye recorded eight
 renditions of his songs 

alongside Waters and Pink Floyd’s 
released material. 

Coming off a recent departure 
from Motown, Gaye,

 upset with the rush-job
 of the Motown-released

 “In Our Lifetime”,

 felt the need to move onto 
other label prospects,

 feeling the creative urge to 

push into new musical directions. 

As Gaye was now a free agent, 

Harvest Heritage was interested in

 putting out this collaborative effort with

 Marvin and Pink Floyd, 
following their release of Pink Floyd’s 

“A Collection of Great Dance Songs” 

but could not clear rights
 from Motown to use

 Marvin’s likeness or vocals from 
his Motown recordings. 

Reworking an unused 
Roger Waters album title,

 the record was named

 “Requiem For a Dream”.

 A limited amount of records 
were pressed up in late 1981,

 using previously 
existing pictures in

 hopes that it would see a 
release date to no avail.
