PINK FLOYD

Many thanks! It's one I've been wanting to do for a while. It is called 'Time'

rad

can you paint this on the wall in my bedroom

available for commissions! I knew this was the right group to share it with.

so cool

i want it on my living room floor

New desktop pattern!

haha that is awesome please send a screenshot

Thanks one and all. I have spent quite a bit of time over the years trying to imagine how I might make a painting based around Floyd. I ruled out portraiture or even creating a composite image of the band onstage. Nothing seemed right. Anyway I finally found the right image and it made sense in light of the kind of things I've been doing in painting of late. And I loved the idea of alot of different kinds of time (the ancient location, the filmed documentation, the performance of the band, and my memories of being there) collapsing on one another. And then the structure of the painting just kind of came together and I started to pursue it from that direction.

xxpost Elvis that podcast, and the Echoes episode in particular, is making my life (and saving my sanity) right now, thank you!!!

New album in October. All we know so far:

• It's called The Endless River
• Rick Wright plays on it
• Youth (Killing Joke) is involved in some way (he posted as much on Facebook)

No idea if Roger Waters is on it, but I certainly hope so...

No Rog, I'm afraid

Yeah, I was just reading on the Steve Hoffman forums. There's a quote there from Durga McBroom, one of their background singers since the 90s:

"The recording did start during The Division Bell sessions (and yes, it was the side project originally titled "The Big Spliff" that Nick Mason spoke about). Which is why there are Richard Wright tracks on it. But David and Nick have gone in and done a lot more since then. It was originally to be a completely instrumental recording, but I came in last December and sang on a few tracks. David then expanded on my backing vocals and has done a lead on at least one of them."

Wait this new record is coming out as a PF album? Weird.

Actually seems like it'll be more of a PF record than Momentary Lapse -- Wright and Mason actually play on it, and it (apparently) has Waters' blessing.

On one hand it's intriguing and I can't help but think they'd like to go out on something better than the Division Bell. On the other hand it reeks of gimmicky grave robbing. But knowing dave it will be tasteful to a fault- better than DB but not good enough for more than a handful of listens.

I'd rather have an official release of Scream Thy Last Scream and Vegetable Man than this, but whatever.

yes it is coming out as a PF album. DG is also releasing a solo album. We'll see. I like On an Island just fine, it seems like a better PF album than anything else since Final Cut.

Youth was also involved that Gilmour / The Orb team-up: The Orb and David Gilmour -- Metallic Spheres

HA! I think I predicted this one.....

3D60 version utterly worth the extra $$$ (and significantly better than the original mix). Comparison points are the Global Communication/Chapterhouse remix album.

Would loved to have heard this as a Pink Floyd album, especially with Wright's input.

We hiked up to Echo Mountain last night to watch all the fireworks shows in Los Angeles from one location. It's become a July 4th tradition - there's a big group of people that make the hike and the views are tremendous. Plus all the fireworks shows from the Rose Bowl, Dodger Stadium, Long Beach, Disneyland, assorted anarchists in Altadena, etc.

Anyway, as we left to make the hike down we heard some amplified music coming out of the bushes on the hillside. One lone guy sitting on a rock: contemplating the void of the city as all the fireworks go off, with "Comfortably Numb" cranked way way up.

There's no way Charles Barkley would've ever said that.

Gilmour on the other hand...

A new, Gaelic language doc about PF on BBC Alba right now.

Single-serving website all about the time PF played Kent St. in 1973. Choice quote:

"You wanna know what the mood of that place was? Roger scorned me. Roger Waters personally scorned me from being able to be up on stage when every other major act I'd worked with had no problem with this.

I stopped following this thread for various reasons so forgive me if this has ever been posted but I've never seen it. The Soft Boys on their 2001 reunion tour do Astronomy Domine as encore and are joined on guitar by Gilmour:

I had another listen to the BBC 'Record Producers' documentary that came out around the first Immersion releases.

Any non brits that might have missed it can find it here: https://vimeo.com/71353120

It's a 'classic albums' format, but across the first half of their career, lotsa multitrack snooping!

Instrumentals rule.

phil manzanera?

He and Dave are buds. Manzanera produced and played on (and toured behind?) the last Gilmour album.

Co-wrote a song on Momentary Lapse of Reason.

Gilmour plays on that Manzanera album that was basically Roxy - Ferry + Eno. Gilmour worked with Ferry a bunch.

What a shame about the cover.

Phil played with Gilmour on jools holland when they did that great Richard wright tribute.
