hello everybody 
I m sorry for my bad English I hope you understand what I a m telling about.
i m beginning a collaboration as back vocal singer with a band who makes cover of Pink Floyd :full album of Dark side of the moon and also the song : Shine on you crazy diamonds.
I have to sing the melody of the backs vocals (we should be two o three woman to sing the chords but for the moment I sing alone) and il need help because it s not always easy to understand the melody only by listening complete song with all the instruments and lead vocals mixed together. I m looking for tunes with isolated vocals and didn't find one on youtube (for example) which was useful. And I m not sure to find a partition where backs vocals are written. Have anybody an idea how to do ? I try to listen many times the tunes and il will try to reproduce notes with a keyboard first, but the chords sing often in harmony so it s no easy and may be it exist a better way. Thank s a lot for your help.

Another option is "Australian Pink Floyd". Their sound is mixed differently, and you can probably hear the backing vocals a lot better. They did a show in Hammersmith I do believe that was recorded. Look that up
Peace, Tony
I purchase my backing tracks also from www.karaoke-version.com. Some are really cool.

thanks a lot for your posts,
it help in a way but in the other way the problem for me come from that the choirs (three singers) sing not the same melody but in harmony. It's not easy to understand which note sing each singer. I have to found a music sheet all score to know exactly which notes are sang by the choirs because this song book don't help (except for the lead vocal) :

I have got also backing tracks on "smule" but it's not enough...even if it help.
So I don't know how to do....
Peace, Tony
