Some of you will recall that back in November 2010, Harry Waters took advantage of a free night on the Roger Waters Wall tour that year, to make a special appearance at a local Miami venue called "7th Circuit Studios". Some good news for our friends who will be in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Sunday, March 11th - another special one-off show has been lined up, in the midst of the record-breaking run of his father's shows.

Follow this link for more information on the show and the venue. Scroll down the target page, and you'll find Harry's show. The picture to the right [click the thumbnail] is the concert poster that is currently plastered all over Buenos Aires announcing the show!

Harry's solo album was licensed to an Argentine label called DBN Discos, and as a bonus for the Latin American edition, Harry joined forces with an up and coming Tango music oriented act in Argentina called Timotteo. They recorded two bonus songs, covers of songs by the legendary Argentinean bandoneon player Astor Piazolla. Violentango and Libertango are the two bonus cuts. The new version of the CD is now available to purchase via Amazon USA.

The album enlists, amongst others, Ian Ritchie on tenor sax, Chester Kamen on acoustic guitar, and the excellent Yaron Stavi on double bass (part of Phil Manzanera's band for the Firebird V11 project). We really enjoyed Harry's first album; its style and infectious jazz-centred tunes certainly made us sit up and listen, and might take you by surprise!

The standard edition (without the extra tracks noted above) can be ordered through the following links: Amazon UK, Amazon.com, Amazon Canada, Amazon Germany, or Amazon France. Harry's own website, www.HarryWaters.co.uk, includes some audio samples to give you a taster.

The well-respected UK radio station Planet Rock are broadcasting a one-hour special - "Building The Wall" at 7pm on Saturday, February 25th. Based on exclusive interviews conducted by this Floyd-friendly station, they take a close look at Pink Floyd's The Wall from conception, to recording the original album and staging the shows, right up to Roger Waters' current tour. It includes interviews with Roger Waters, Nick Mason, Snowy White and Gerald Scarfe.

Those in the UK can tune in on DAB radio, via Sky satellite TV (channel 0110), Virgin Media digital cable (channel 924), or Freesat (channel 730). Alternatively, fans worldwide can listen in via their website: PlanetRock.com. They also have a "Listen Again" facility online but we cannot guarantee that this interview will be available through that route.

Next month, "Flashback" opens at Artisan, in London. It showcases Adam Ritchie's incredible photos of Pink Floyd live in 1966/67, and the Velvet Underground in New York a year or so earlier.

In London, 1966, Adam's old friend John "Hoppy" Hopkins had started the UFO Club and new bands got an opportunity to play. It was here Adam met Pink Floyd. He photographed them several times at the UFO and at the Roundhouse and got them on the cover of "Town" magazine. Many years later all but a few of the images remain. Some of these will be shown at Artisan for the very first time.

Adam told us: "Some have been shown before but many are unseen until now. You may have seen some in Nick Mason's big book. The pictures were the only ones left after all the rest of my professional photo work was lost, so they are particularly important to me. I'm showing nine giant Pink Floyd prints and about twenty five in other sizes at the Artisan. There will also be a display of my 1965/66 Velvet Underground photos from New York."

"Flashback" runs from March 9th - 24th, 2012, Wednesday to Saturday from 11am to 5pm, and more information can be found at www.artisan80.com. The exhibition poster to the right, and following photos [click the thumbnails], give a flavour of the wonderful images to be on display at the Artisan.

The Tyrant King has now been released on DVD. The show, a rare, and little known nationally syndicated children's drama aired on British TV for just six episodes, featured many contemporary artists including The Nice, Cream, Moody Blues, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Pink Floyd, on the soundtrack.

The Tyrant King was a mystery thriller, and follows three teenagers as they traverse London searching for an answer to a hidden secret. A quest fraught with drama and danger takes them to some of the capital's most iconic landmarks and beyond (a reflection of the drama's origin as an adventure story published by London Transport). The show looks pretty dated now, and is a fairly quaint look at the "swinging sixties" albeit with a youth slant to the show.

The first episode aired on October 3rd, 1968, and was only ever seen in black and white. The new DVD, released for a limited period, has the show in full colour, and orders can now be placed for this (which is in PAL format), through Amazon UK. Here's the trailer for the series release:
