ticketmastersComment(0)

The article finds David chatting with acclaimed author Mark Blake (Pigs Might Fly about Pink Floyd, and other books) about the new album. He also hints at more to come before too long: “I’ve got a trove of stuff already”. Alongside what the magazine are calling “The Definitive Interview”, there are articles looking at Joni Mitchell, the Ramones and much more. The cover mounted CD – Point Me At The Sky, with a suitably 60s design on the cover – holds “15 Flashbacks to the Golden Age of British Psych”, with Soft Machine, The Pretty Things and more. Always a great read, the magazine is due to arrive in UK stores in a week’s time, and will be available in selected locations worldwide as an import, in due course. Alternatively, you can order (worldwide) online through the Great Magazines website which is owned and run by the publishers of Mojo (and will secure you the cover-mounted CD as well!)

David joins Romany Gilmour at small local gig

ticketmastersComment(0)

Last night, in the city of Brighton and Hove, the Neptune Inn pub (in Hove) hosted a small gig for Romany Gilmour, David’s daughter, who contributes to his new album Luck and Strange. With rehearsals for the day finished, David presumably felt he had unfinished business and turned up unannounced to run through Wish You Were Here with his daughter! As Jerry Ewing of Louder Sound/Prog (https://www.loudersound.com/news/wish-you-were-here-david-gilmour-stuns-tiny-brighton-pub-with-live-rendition-of-pink-floyd-classic) reports, Romany had been performing at the pub’s regular Monday evening open mic night, running through Leonard Cohen’s If It Be Your Will, Joanna Newsom’s This Side Of Blue, and her own Lily Of The Roses, when her father arrived with a guitar! A glimpse of the event can be seen here: Very much enjoyed crashing @GilmourRomany (https://twitter.com/GilmourRomany?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)’s gig at the Neptune in Hove this evening after finishing tour rehearsals… pic.twitter.com/9FxlX2YMIu (https://t.co/9FxlX2YMIu)— David Gilmour (@davidgilmour) September 9, 2024 (https://twitter.com/davidgilmour/status/1833249956427104539?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)

Obscured By Clouds fan documentary

ticketmastersComment(0)

You might recall that last year, we brought you something a little different – a BD visitor had been in touch with details of a documentary he had put together on Pink Floyd’s 1970 album, Atom Heart Mother. Lee then followed up with another documentary, this time looking at Animals. He’s been busy again, and now takes a detailed look at 1972’s album, Obscured By Clouds. As with the previous documentaries, he treads some slightly different ground, and it is an interesting watch, with some interesting footage and pictures throughout:
