that comes across much better live than the studio version on spotify. Nice song though.

Is Harry there? There's someone playing the piano who I can't make out. Or maybe Harry is only in the touring band?

Also, that's the girls from Lucius doing backing vocals. Curious to know if they're on the album..

Harry his son? I saw the touring line up somewhere the other day and I don't think he was in it

yeah, him. I think Harry lives in England whereas Roger seems to be in the US the whole time. Must look at the touring band. And, I hope to hell he comes here and doesn't play any Floyd stuff.

Anyone going to this?
The Pink Floyd Exhibition

Thinking of heading over after August Bank Holiday

must read some reviews of that to see is it any use. I'd be interested if people were saying it was good. But, it's a bit of a chore getting over there so it'd want to be worth it.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

If I'm in London while it's on I'll try to go, I doubt I'll go over just to see it though

it looks to be the Box set being sold off in bits. Like, the 1965-1967 Cambridge Sta/tion one is the first 2 CDs from the box set. Haven't checked the rest but I'm sure they follow suit.

This one is great. And though a bit pricey, it looks like you could get the whole box set for half the price if you buy these individually.

I listened to a couple of them on streaming. The 1971 one with the early version of "Echoes" and the BBC session is great. The first disc of the 1972 one is a chore though, luckily the Live at Pompeii material makes up disc two but I think I'd rather be watching it than just listening to the soundtrack.

Pink Floyd news :: Brain Damage - Roger Waters: Us + Them Production Rehearsal, Meadowlands, May 21, 2017

Dreadful looking setlist there - nothing from Pros & Cons, Radio KAOS or Amused to Death. I'm still looking forward to the new album but this tour is starting to look pointless (unless he's holding back on the exciting stuff for the real gigs)

I wouldn't hold my breath.

Agreed, the setlist is dreadful.

BBC Radio 6 Music - Radcliffe and Maconie, Nick Mason, “Syd just knew that Pink Floyd wasn’t what he wanted to do” – Nick Mason on the early days of the legendary band

Edit: that's a bbc interview with Nick Mason about his new book

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

Poor Nick, all he wants is to be the drummer in a band

I had a listen to Rog's new album last night, first impressions are good. It's full of reminders of his earlier career but not nearly as retro as I expected from the preview tracks, in fact it sounds very contemporary. Very lush but restrained and sorta minimal at the same time, nice melodies, good singing and best of all there's no big name lead guitarist widdling all over it. I don't think there's any guitar solo actually, unless there's on in Smell The Roses. It's all about the synths, instrumentally.

I'd never thought I'd say this but that actually sounds interesting.

If you thought that track back up the page was dreadful then you can forget it, cornu, you won't like it. Also, bear in mind when I say things like "minimal" that we're talking about a guy who made The Wall and Amused To Death

where'd you hear it? Is some site giving a preview?

 

[rettucs]

there's 3 songs on spotify. Will give them a spin now. I'm really looking forward to hearing this album.
