Suzanne Schmidt from Pittsburgh asks: "During the Pompei video when the band are talking in a restaurant, Roger says, 'If you can hear {word} on the second string of pressings, you've got an extremely overactive imagination because there isn't any'. What is the {word} he is saying?"
The word is "sibilant" (a hissing sound) as in a sibilant consonant when "s" or "z" are used. He meant, and was referring to, the first string of pressings of Obscured By Clouds having a bit of a sound problem caused by mechanical gremlins resulting in some of the high sounds on the record becoming distorted. This problem was corrected on the second string of pressings.
