This is a very special opportunity to experience Pink Floyd’s celebrated and significant early body of work played live including songs from albums ‘The Piper At The Gates of Dawn’ and ‘A Saucerful Of Secrets’, through to ‘Obscured By Clouds’. The band have been very highly praised by fans and the media alike for the quality and uniqueness of each performance – the Saucers clearly have a wonderful time performing together, and that comes across clearly in the music.

Audio Technology and Pink Floyd

Our thanks to BD visitor Brian Phillips who has supplied the following article with his views on Audio Technology and Pink Floyd. We always welcome contributions from our visitors, as this site is run FOR you, and WITH you. Different views give different perspectives – if you have something you’d like to share with us, and the Floyd community as a whole, just let us know! The Beatles get a lot of attention, and rightfully so, for being innovators in the studio, the invention of flanging , artificial double tracking, and sampling, among others are tools still used today. There are other contemporaries that deserve an equal amount of attention for being studio and live sound innovators. Pink Floyd is one of these bands. While sometimes being in Abbey Road studios at the same time as the Beatles, the innovation by Pink Floyd continued for decades after the Beatles planted the first seeds. Things like Pink Floyd’s 1967 invention the Azimuth Coordinator , allowed for live sound to be presented in quadraphonic , a surround sound format 20 to 30 years prior to that format becoming a standard for home theaters. This new idea of surrounding, encapsulating the audience, allowing concert goers to listen inside the music, raised the bar for all future concerts.

Pink Floyd: The Black Strat – revised 4th edition book now available

now available to order exclusively from Amazon UK (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0955663512/braindamage-21). A few copies appeared in the gift shop of the V A museum when the Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains was on there, but this handful of books quickly went. The news that it is available again will be music to many ears, as it really is a great book fully deserving of a space on your Floydian bookshelf! Now expanded to 256 pages, the fourth edition brings the story pretty much up to date, including the brace of incredible Pompeii concerts performed by David, and the V A staging of the Floyd exhibition. The only thing missing is its sale at the recent auction at Christie’s New York, in aid of ClientEarth, the environmental charity, when the guitar passed into new hands, hopefully to create more music in the future. The book contains plenty of new information as well as many more unpublished photographs, recently come to light, that further chart the Black Strat’s illustrious history. Amending and elaborating on the previous editions, it is an incredible labour of love to document every aspect of this instrument, yet never get too technical for the more casual enthusiast, or Floyd fan who doesn’t play guitar. You can order the book now through this direct link to Amazon UK (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0955663512/braindamage-21), where it is exclusively available. They will ship books worldwide so if outside Purchasing things after entering Amazon through our links really helps with site running costs, and we really appreciate it!
