Why was the original version of "Money" (from Dark Side of the Moon) not included on A Collection Of Great Dance Songs? Instead they used a new version with David Gilmour playing ALL the instruments (except sax).
Pink Floyd oddity?

For some reason I wondered if this thread was gonna be about the Publius Enigma.
I think it was probably just because they were upset the band had switched labels--especially right after one of the top selling albums of all time.
I'm actually surprised Columbia got Dave to do it. Though it's clearly obvious he phoned it in. The bass is just looped over and over as if he just did one quick take and was done.
Surprising because he's actually a very good bass player (arguably better than Waters even).

I have never heard the original. Is it that different?
And is there some reason that Dave had to play all the instruments himself? Was the rest of the band not willing (or not allowed) to do it?

The band was not in a very good place, relationship wise, at the time of that recording.
