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’.

the 65 tracks are pretty interesting, I suppose there is hope then that we'll get actual released versions of Scream Thy Last Scream and Vegetable Man in 2017.

tho i guess that if anything will get Waters diggin' through the archives for new product, it's a multi-million dollar divorce.

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.

Forty-five years after Pink Floyd played a historic show in Pompeii, Italy, that was captured on one of rock’s greatest concert movies, David Gilmour – the band’s guitarist and singer – will return for a pair of shows there this summer.
Pompeii Culture Minister Dario Franceschini (via Consequence of Sound) announced the concerts on Twitter today. The dates (July 7 and 8 at the Pompeii Amphitheatre) are part of Gilmour’s current tour, which started last year.
Pink Floyd famously shot Live at Pompeii in October 1971 without an audience. But they stuck to their touring set list of the time, which included epic versions of concert favorites “Echoes,” “One of These Days” and “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun.” (The movie played in theaters the following year.)
Gilmour released his latest solo album, Rattle That Lock, last year – his first since he announced that Pink Floyd were over. In 2014, the band put out The Endless River, an LP made up of session outtakes from 1994’s The Division Bell. The album was completed as a tribute of sorts to keyboardist Richard Wright, who died in 2008.

I know this is the PINK FLOYD RULES thread and not the Art Linkletter thread, BUT
The kids and I are in the car, talking about planetariums. I bring up Pink Floyd, and how they're good for laser shows because they've got stuff like airport terminal sounds with a steady beat. Talking up their theatrical edge, I mention Pompeii and even The Wall shows. "It was about a man who was feeling bad that he put up a wall where no one could talk to him anymore."
I mention the shows where as they're playing the stagehands build a wall between them and the audience so by the end, you couldn't see the band playing anymore - just this gigantic wall. "But at the end, for the finale, they tear the wall down, the pieces go everywhere and you can see the man singing again."
