I suppose this is old news for the Pink Floyd nerds around. But the sync of Echoes and 2001 is the BEST thing I have ever seen in my life : [VIDEO]

I think this one it much more interesting: [VIDEO] Echoes lines up with the ending of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

My favorite Echoes experience will always be listening to it synced to the end of 2001 A Space Odyssey. When I was a teen I used to have to manually sync it up with a DVD and CD player. Fortunately some hero now has now posted it on youtube. [VIDEO]
