Gerald Scarfe - The Making of Pink Floyd: The Wall (paperback)

Gerald Scarfe's excellent "The Making of Pink Floyd: The Wall" has rightly received much praise from the Floyd community. For those who haven't read our review of this book yet, click here to find out more about it, and to see what we thought.

On November 10th, 2011, the book arrives in paperback format from the publisher's Phoenix, with a newly designed cover. We know that some of you have been hoping for a paperback release of this book, so this will come as good news for you. Pricewise it is worth shopping around if you wish to pick up this great, and pretty essential, addition to your Floydian bookshelf.

The cheapest we've found at time of writing is at Play.com who do ship to many countries, although you can also order it from the following, which may well be cheaper once shipping to your home is factored in: Amazon UK, Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Amazon France, Amazon Germany, and Amazon Italy.

January 20th - March 20th, 2012
Dark Side Of The Moon - A Photographic Exhibition

Dark Side Of The Moon - A Photographic Exhibition is a special celebration, marking the 40th anniversary of Pink Floyd's first (and quite troubled) first attempted performance of their best-known album, which took place on January 20th 1972 at the Brighton Dome.

The exhibition runs from January 20th through to March 20th, at the Founders Room at the Dome, and is open between 10am - 5pm on Tuesday through to Sunday, each week. Admission is free. Photographer Jill Furmanovsky, a familiar name to many Floyd fans, spent considerable time on the road with the band including the debut DSOTM gig in Brighton. The exhibition will display a range of these, along with other rare and intimate images by Storm Thorgerson, Colin Prime and Tony Collins. Rock Archive limited edition prints will be available.

On the opening evening, there will be the rare opportunity of a Q&A with Jill Furmanovsky, again being hosted in the Founders Room in the Dome. This (free) event starts at 7pm, and having spoken to the Dome this morning (December 30th), ticketing information should be available in the new year.

The Wall - EXPERIENCE and IMMERSION EDITIONS

Currently, there are three of the Floyd's albums that have been announced for release as an Experience edition. These present the original studio album, digitally remastered by James Guthrie and reissued with a newly designed Digipak and a new multi-page booklet designed by Storm Thorgerson. Each also comes with an additional disc, and in The Wall's case, this features content yet to be formally announced but from what we understand, should be very interesting to fans of this piece of music!

Turning to the Immersion edition, this comes with FIVE additional discs - four CDs, and a DVD, all chock full of extras. Full details can be seen here. The Immersion edition comes with a 44 page, 27cm x 27cm booklet designed by Storm Thorgerson, an exclusive photo book, an exclusive Storm Thorgerson Art Print, 5 x Collectors’ Cards featuring art and comments by Storm Thorgerson, a replica of The Wall tour ticket, a replica of The Wall backstage pass, a scarf, prints/cards of Mark Fisher's stage drawings, 3 x white marbles with design of bricks, 9 x Coasters (unique to this box) featuring early Storm Thorgerson design sketches, and a credits booklet.

Possibly in 2012:

• Roger Waters - The Dark Side Of The Moon tour film
  We have had confirmation from Roger's manager, Mark Fenwick, that Roger is still working on a film of TDSOTM live show, but until it is finished there will be no release scheduled. As soon as we have more details of what this release (will it be a cinema release, or in DVD and hopefully Bluray format?) will involve, we will let you know. It is encouraging though to get official word on this, which we know from the feedback we've had will be incredibly popular!
• Roger Waters - The Wall tour 2012: rest of the world
  We know many of you are desperately hoping that Roger is intending to take his tour of The Wall to other areas of the world. Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Brazil and Argentina have all been announced, as have North American dates. As yet we have no firm information about other regions, although Roger has confirmed he has been asked to return to Europe as well, although he is reluctant to do these due to general fatige. We'll keep you posted on anything credible we hear...
• The Wall 1980/81 DVD release
  One thing that has caused tidal waves of anticipation within the Floyd community is the growing talk that the original Pink Floyd Wall concerts from 1980/81 may well get a DVD release soon. Roger has been alluding to this in various interviews recently so the thought is gathering pace...
• Official film about Pink Floyd
  In an interview with Rhythm Magazine published at the end of August 2010, Nick talks about a film that is in the works about Pink Floyd that he has been working on...
• Roger Waters - The Wall Live tour film
  All three of the Athens, Greece, concerts, in July 2011, were recorded and filmed. On Roger's site, he confirms a theatrical and Blu-ray release, although no timescales are available as yet. More on this, as we get it.
• Roger Waters - vinyl remasters
  Doug Sax, mastering engineer for Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Pink Floyd since 1983, is interviewed at length in the 2011 edition of "The Absolute Sound" Guide to Vinyl Playback, and confirms that "I'm going to be doing the Roger Waters albums on vinyl and they have extraordinary low end, requiring an astonishing amount of vertical modulation. We use up the full depth available on a lacquer master. You can't do anything like that on DMM. It's very thin; you can't go deep. For that kind of thing it could be an absolute joke." As work is yet to start on them, it will be some time before there's any release information, but sounds good that Sax is taking his customary care to ensure these sound as good as they can.

As and when we hear anything else, we will update this page.
