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

Good piece. Hard to believe but Roger has seemed to mellow with age – and in a good way.

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.

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.

Those 1965 tracks are pretty good! They sound more like Syd's solo stuff than Pink Floyd
― Mark G, Friday, 4 December 2015 11:28 (eight years ago) link
Listening to this right now and, yes, it's almost like the Floyd were an aberration in his career - esp. the track, "Butterfly", not that great a song (nothing is here), but it is pure Syd Barrett.

Roger Waters' multi-million divorce proceedings were almost scuttled when his estranged wife Laurie Durning demanded her watch back in court.According to PageSix.com, Laurie, 52, and the Pink Floyd legend, 72, got into a row over a $35,000 (£23,478) gold Daytona Rolex.Speaking in Manhattan's Supreme Court on Thursday, Laurie said: ‘I just want my watch, that’s all’, minutes before the divorce was finalised. And as the judge took the bench, she is reported to have told the British singer: ‘What an ****hole you are’.

Just got this PR email:
We feel privileged to be working with the family and estate managers of Syd Barrett to mark what would have been his 70th birthday tomorrow.
The family of the iconic musician who died ten years ago will be unveiling a new official website at 12 noon on Wednesday 6th January, offering a wealth of previously unseen family photographs documenting Syd from early childhood until the early 1980s. There are plans to reveal more unseen material at regular intervals throughout the year, as well as publishing a range of articles about Syd and his music from celebrity guest writers.
The original site is still live. The new site will occupy the same web address from noon tomorrow.

ha -- "Unprecedented Demand for New Syd Barrett Photos Crashes Website"Just a quick note to say thank you on behalf of Syd Barrett's family. They're absolutely delighted with the coverage they've received for the website launched to celebrate what would have been Syd's 70th birthday.
The response from fans all over the world has been so huge that the server hasn't been able to cope with demand. The tech team are currently transferring the site onto an alternate server and we're hoping that normal service will be resumed this afternoon.
