One of Brain Damage’s friends of many years is José Abellán, who runs the Animals PF Magazine (http://www.animalspinkfloydmagazine.com). Jose is also contributor to the Spanish music magazine This Is Rock. To coincide with the release of Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets: Live At The Roundhouse (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/nick-masons-saucerful-of-secrets-live-at-the-roundhouse-2lp-2cd-dvd-blu-ray-ci-2.html), Jose chatted with Nick back in February, pre-lockdown, and he has kindly shared a translation of his full article and interview that appeared in the April issue of This Is Rock: Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets: Live At The Roundhouse is on sale from Friday, September 18, worldwide in several formats: double vinyl, 2 CD and DVD, and Blu-ray. Its release was originally scheduled for Friday, April 17, but due to the pandemic, it was postponed, a delay of five months. In February and April of this year, two interview sessions with Nick Mason were held in London and New York. The appointment in London was on February 11th and 12th (my birthday) and I was able to choose the 12th⦠you can decide if there was good or bad intention in my choice. As a contributor to This Is Rock magazine, I was able to interview Nick in my role as journalist that morning at One Alfred Place in London. Live at the Roundhouse is different to any other concert of “classic” Pink Floyd. It’s the closest you can get to a time machine, transporting you back to the band’s early days. Nick Mason, the only member of the band to have played on all of Pink Floyd’s studio albums, returns to the group’s early albums, alongside Gary Kemp, Guy Pratt, Lee Harris and Dom Beken. Saucerful of Secrets, Nick Mason’s band, brought drumming back to clubs for the first time since 1967, then to theatres and halls across the UK, North America and Europe, playing only music from his old band, recorded previous to The Dark Side of the Moon. The result is the release of this double album, 2CD / DVD and Blu-ray. Seated for an hour face to face in a spacious office, only Nick Mason and I, we talked about this release, the future tour, his time in Spain, Pink Floyd and the future of this band and Pink Floyd…
