The Pink Floyd Thread (News, Talk Etc.)

All PINK FLOYD. All the time.

 

So what's new with Pink Floyd?

 

I have a question. I never picked up the 'Shine On' box set. Is the book inside any good?

 

I gave it to my wife for a Christmas present when it first came out. I though the book was quite nice but it's been years since we even touched the box as we listen mostly to the vinyl versions when we want to hear Pink Floyd.

 

A reminder. July 1st will see the release of a new Pink Floyd book:

Pink Floyd: Scandinavia 1967-1972 (Unseen Nordic Archives)

https://www.amazon.com/Pink-Floyd-S...rds=Pink+Floyd&qid=1593366182&s=books&sr=1-10

Pink Floyd : Scandinavia 1967 - 1972

Pink Floyd: New Book with Previously Unseen Concert Photos (1967-1972), coming in September 2019

 

Jerry. Thanks for starting this. I'll tune in.

 

Like this post if you were hit in the head by Steve Distanislao's drumstick at the end of a David Gilmour show in São Paulo in 2015.

 

I wasn't there but I liked your post anyway!

Mostly bickering and lavish box sets.

 

Dave is still too rich to care about music. Nothing changed.

 

Revisit the short film that documented Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett's first acid trip

 

I have a bold prediction:

I don't think that they will get back together.

 

Roger is still Roger, Dave is still not here, man. Since embarrassing myself in person asking a redundant question to Mr. Waters I have yet to return to Floyd fandom.

 

Still my preferred version. Hauntingly beautiful.

 

I still have it, though I haven’t looked at it in ages. At the time, I loved it. I basically dove in head first once I realized I was bound to pick up their whole catalog, so I got that set after I think just having the Wall and AMLoR. The book was great and informative, but it’s long since been surpassed by the various art books and bios over the years. It was also a bit scattershot, since the set didn’t even have certain albums. Certainly not definitive.

 

At least you must admit he has earned it.

 

David has a new song included in Polly Samson's audiobook. It's very sweet. More like a home demo, but nice nevertheless.
I'm not sure this works but you can try downloading it here 31. Yes, I Have Ghosts.wav

 

I am hoping the first announcement on this thread is the releases of Meddle, Obscured and Animals in 5.1... and an announcement the The Final Cut 5.1 is on its way....
Yes I dream

 

Would also love to see a release of a '77 show (Oakland sounds great IMO)
BBC Sessions esp. 70 & 71
Live at Wembley 1974

I know the last two are available on the Early Years box, but they deserve a standalone release!

 

Agreed

 

Caught Roger live twice in 2017. It reawakened my love for Floyd big time. The best sounding live music I’ve ever heard. Visuals were incredible, too.
