I always read Young Lust a parody of the ball-out blues rocker.TS: "Young Lust" vs. "Crew Slut" (which I know is a parody blues rocker because Zappa said so in the Joe's Garage liner notes, which he did because Zappa.)

Say what you want about The Division Bell but it's a really iconic cover image. Not sure I need it tattooed on my back, though.

Def one of the bands that knew how to create great iconography

Heard the new Gilmour tour on the Brain Damage podcast. It sounds.... stately. I really only have budget for one Old Guy tour and I think Fogerty in Vegas is going to win out.

I feel a bit regretful having not made the effort to see him at the Royal Albert Hall, although I had a look at the set list and it's not much different to the On An Island tour and that was kinda cool with Robert Wyatt, Crosby & Nash & Bowie doing Arnold Layne.

pretty nice overview of the floyd's late 60s soundtrack work: http://www.aquariumdrunkard.com/2015/11/11/pink-floyd-childhoods-end-the-soundtracks#pinkfloydrules

eh, a little sloppy for my tastes. claims for instance that nick mason was responsible for the melody of "us & them" (?!?) and complains that the music to "la vallee" (which i haven't seen) is all diegetic when in fact "more" is exactly the same way. and this material is so obscure i'm not sure an overview is even appropriate- why not delve into the arcana of the "committee" soundtrack, of "san francisco", of the (great) film-only track "seabirds"?

My friend Jonathan interviewed Roger for Noisey. He's talked to both David and Roger this year and I'm jealous as hell:

I really don't get the advantage of releasing this copyright extension stuff in limited edition 1,000-copies. Wouldn't it make better business sense to just have a regular non-limited release? Now that they're out there, these recordings will be so heavily bootlegged that whatever standard release they do years from now will be redundant.
― Mr. Snrub, Monday, 30 November 2015 07:14 (eight years ago) link
idk I guess they don't need to spend as much time on a limited release, they can just whack it out w/the minimum of fuss. the same goes for the Dylan sets, which were very minimal as regards packaging etc.
― schlep and back trio (anagram), Monday, 30 November 2015 11:31 (eight years ago) link
Bootleggers make very little thesedays, it's not worth the hassle getting sued by copyright holders.
If the tracks fall into public domain, there is no hassle so the 'bootleggers' can operate legally.
― Mark G, Monday, 30 November 2015 11:50 (eight years ago) link
The old farts here are faced with a fairly unpleasant choice. Either they can make their old unreleased stuff "officially" available, or run the risk that anybody who gets their hands on the tapes can profit off their old junk. It's questionable whether or not it would work like that in practice, as it's never been tested in the courts, but nobody particularly wants to run the risk.
My impression is that with Floyd, the question is not so much profit, as all of them have more money than they seem to have use for, but brand control. They really don't want to see what they consider to be substandard crap released under the Pink Floyd name (and by any reasonable standard, "Walk With Me Sydney" is substandard crap). So probably the best choice here is to release it as a limited run and live with the uncontrollable noncommercial bootlegging, while still preserving the legal right of control over their work.

wish they'd been thinking along these lines before they released The Endless River
