“50 years of The Dark Side of the Moon” (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001jztg) will see Walker marking the golden anniversary of this landmark Pink Floyd album, which is released in a deluxe box set in a few days time (on Friday, 24th March) with an accompanying official book within the box and sold separately (including our special and very limited edition book and print set exclusive). In the almost two hour special, Walker will revisit his own archive interviews with the band, and there’s a new chat with Pink Floyd expert and writer Mark Blake. As we’ve mentioned elsewhere on this site, Blake’s fascinating and revelatory new book Us & Them charts the career of the Hipgnosis team, Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey Powell, who created the iconic cover for the album and many other classic album artworks. The show will be live on BBC Radio 2, which is available on a variety of platforms, from 3pm UK time today, and after broadcast, on demand (hopefully worldwide) at this direct link at BBC.co.uk (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001jztg). Our thanks to Rob Sadler for the tip-off about this programme airing today!

Pink Floyd At War feature in new issue of Mojo Magazine
new issue of the UK’s Mojo Magazine (cover date February 2021, issue number 327) (https://www.greatmagazines.co.uk/mojo-327-february-2021) includes a major feature on Pink Floyd, within its pages which also include a major retrospective on John Lennon, marking 40 years since he was senselessly shot dead in New York. The Floyd feature – headlined Burning Bridges: Floyd Wars! and written by Pigs Might Fly author Mark Blake – is a detailed, eight-page look at the conflict between Roger Waters and David Gilmour, and looks at its origins. It is clear that from very early days, there were differences in the pair’s behaviours and ethos which even saw David walk out of one of the very first rehearsals he had with the others on joining Pink Floyd in January 1968. As one has come to expect from Blake, it’s an entertaining and detailed guide to the fraught working relationship of Roger and David, pre- and post- split. Elsewhere in the magazine, amongst a wide range of other things, and subject of the cover photo, there’s the piece on John Lennon which is an absorbing look at the impact and aftershock of the shooting, coupled with a range of artists, musicians and others talking about how Lennon changed their lives. Always a great read, the magazine has arrived in UK stores today (Tuesday, December 15th), and will be available in selected locations worldwide as an import, in due course. Alternatively, you can order (worldwide) online through the GreatMagazines website (https://www.greatmagazines.co.uk/mojo-327-february-2021) which is owned and run by the publishers of Mojo.
