Marvin Gaye & Pink Floyd - Requiem For A Dream (Unreleased Album) [1981]

I have posted this a few times over the years. It is a fabulous album that get under the skin quickly.
The back of the album cover explains likes this:

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) for filming, 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 ondon, 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 ideas.
