Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon"

At the end of Pink Floyd's 1973 album "Dark Side of the Moon", on the track "Eclipse", a section of the orchestral version of "Ticket to Ride" can very faintly be heard beneath the closing heart-beat sound effect. It is believed to be from this album. Before digital recording, recording tapes were wiped and re-used. It is possible that the tape used to record the heart-beat sound effect was not properly wiped and formerly had this track on it, or it was a deliberate inclusion by the band.
