Il racconto: “Sfortunatamente non mi trovavo in studio durante la leggendaria visita di Syd Barrett, il 9 giugno del 1975. Syd, grande amico e membro della band fino al 1968, lasciò i Pink Floyd per problemi psichici legati all’abuso di LSD. Syd apparve senza preavviso nel mezzo di una sessione di registrazione e venne riconosciuto a fatica dagli altri. Era molto ingrassato ed aveva la testa e le sopracciglia rasate. Dopo attimi di sconcerto generale, Gilmour lo invitò al suo ricevimento di nozze presso gli uffici della EMI, che si svolgeva proprio quel giorno. Syd accettò di seguire i compagni ma poi scomparve così come era apparso e nessun membro della band lo vide più fino al giorno della sua morte, nel 2006. “Shine on you crazy diamond” è dedicata a lui.” Edizione: Edizione 30.

  • “The Dark Side of the Moon”—Pink Floyd (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay By: Daniel Levitin (Guest Post)*
    “The Dark Side of the Moon”—Pink Floyd (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by: Daniel Levitin (guest post)* Dark Side of the Moon Angst. Greed. Alienation. Questioning one's own sanity. Weird time signatures. Experimental sounds. In 1973, Pink Floyd was a somewhat known progressive rock band, but it was this, their ninth album, that catapulted them into world class rock-star status. “The Dark Side of the Moon” spent an astonishing 14 years on the “Billboard” album charts, and sold an estimated 45 million copies. It is a work of outstanding artistry, skill, and craftsmanship that is popular in its reach and experimental in its grasp. An engineering masterpiece, the album received a Grammy nomination for best engineered non-classical recording, based on beautifully captured instrumental tones and a warm, lush soundscape. Engineer Alan Parsons and Mixing Supervisor Chris Thomas, who had worked extensively with The Beatles (the LP was mastered by engineer Wally Traugott), introduced a level of sonic beauty and clarity to the album that propelled the music off of any sound system to become an all- encompassing, immersive experience. In his 1973 review, Lloyd Grossman wrote in “Rolling Stone” magazine that Pink Floyd’s members comprised “preeminent techno-rockers: four musicians with a command of electronic instruments who wield an arsenal of sound effects with authority and finesse.” The used their command to create a work that introduced several generations of listeners to art-rock and to elements of 1950s cool jazz. Some reharmonization of chords (as on “Breathe”) was inspired by Miles Davis, explained keyboardist Rick Wright.

If you have the slightest interest in Pink Floyd, do not miss this group when they return to larger venues later this year. You won’t even need acid to blow your mind.” ✭✮✮✮✮ Michael Hann, Financial Times “The sound was immense, electrifying, galvanising, mesmerising and still deeply strange, bending the formats of primal rock into all kind of weird and wonderful shapes. From the warped garage rock opening of Interstellar Overdrive, Astronomy Domine and Lucifer Sam to the closing proto-shoe gaze blitz of One of These Days and bent musical hall wackiness of Point Me at the Sky, it was a set of such startling intensity it seemed to mock the very notion of nostalgia. It was enough to make you wonder whether rock has progressed very far at all since the Sixties. ✭✮✮✮ Neil McCormick, The Daily Telegraph T: @nickmasondrums / FB:www.facebook.com/NickMasonDrums T: @pinkfloyd / FB:www.facebook.com/pinkfloyd www.pinkfloyd.com For images please go to http://bit.ly/2JMteyE 25 May, 2018 - Following four intimate and acclaimed live shows at London’s Dingwalls (20 May) and The Half Moon in Putney (21, 23 and 24 May), Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets will be touring their unique live show of early Pink Floyd across Europe, including six shows in the UK.

  • Book Proposal 3
    Rock and Roll has Tender Moments too... ! Photographs by Chalkie Davies 1973-1988 ! For as long as I can remember people have suggested that I write a book, citing both my exploits in Rock and Roll from 1973-1988 and my story telling abilities. After all, with my position as staff photographer on the NME and later The Face and Arena, I collected pop stars like others collected stamps, I was not happy until I had photographed everyone who interested me. However, given that the access I had to my friends and clients was often unlimited and 24/7 I did not feel it was fair to them that I should write it all down. I refused all offers. Then in 2010 I was approached by the National Museum of Wales, they wanted to put on a retrospective of my work, this gave me a special opportunity. In 1988 I gave up Rock and Roll, I no longer enjoyed the music and, quite simply, too many of my friends had died, I feared I might be next. So I put all of my negatives into storage at a friends Studio and decided that maybe 25 years later the images you see here might be of some cultural significance, that they might be seen as more than just pictures of Rock Stars, Pop Bands and Punks. That they even might be worthy of a Museum. So when the Museum approached me three years ago with the idea of a large six month Retrospective in 2015 I agreed, and thought of doing the usual thing and making a Catalogue.
