Webradio broadcast from last night: Nice!!

Isn't this the star kit you are looking for? I think he used it for Autumn/Winter 1970 (probably introduced after the theft of the equipment in the...

1. The Overture to the movie (i.e. preceding When the Tigers Broke Free) was recorded in the soundtrack sessions. I am almost sure Alan Parker had...

That's because they were meant to be a replica, painted by Katy Hepburn. According to Nick, after PF's visit to Japan in 1972, he was so moved by...

The waves look like a Katsushika Hokusai illustration called The Great Wave off Kanagawa: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa

I just got home from the show. It was good. I hadn't seen Roger since I think it was called the In the Flesh tour, late 1990s? He didn't play...

Thanks. Use them as you please.

Those are pretty good pictures, thanks for uploading!

Just my 2 cents, but I'd much rather have a Meddle Immersion Edition, AHM Immersion Edition, OBC Immersion Edition, More Immersion Edition and/or...

Yup, he's the only one who earned any money from The Wall tour because all the others had to put in their own money - and I'm guessing the tour...

One more.

I think Mark Jones has a pretty comprehensive photo collection. I can’t recall if it’s online or not.

When/where did Alan write that? The original Wall album session sheets indicate that two versions of an Overture for Comfortably Numb were recorded,...

Maybe a box for that album would benefit from a chronological disposition of the material: -- for starters, I suspect that some of the songs...

I used to listen to the demos a lot because I love the roughness and to me somehow they feel a bit more organic and warm than the finished mix even...

I believe bottom left is, I think, Crystal Palace 1971. Top left of course is Pompeii. Not sure about top right, other than it's 1969.

The song "Not Now John" is much, much better in the demo version. I would buy an Immersion set just to have that track in perfect quality.

The vocals are the most notable difference. IMO a lot of the demo vocals are substantially better than the finalized album's, particularly on the...

I think I listened to the demos once and then forgot about them because the sound quality was so bad. I don't remember anything being compelling...

The star heads were in Hamburg 1971, but by July 1st he had switched to the Pompeii Heads. What would probably be best is if I could identify the...

Not sure if it's helpful, but I *think* the star heads were a first half of 1971 thing? I always think of Hamburg Feb 1971 and Austria July 1st 1971...

I doubt it was easy for him before it happened. I'm sure the tension with the situation was nutty, but I think the ease probably came came after the...

Yep. They had to leave the UK for a year, or face bankruptcy. That's when Gilmour said he decided he had to get involved with their finances going...
