Re-Building The Wall - all star album out now Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Wednesday, 18 April 2007

UK record company Redline Records (part of Cherry Red) have just released "Re-Building The Wall", a superb 2CD set of some of the biggest progressive and rock musicians interpreting and reconstructing Roger Waters' conceptual masterpiece, Pink Floyd's epic 1979 album.

Featuring almost a complete "who's who" of musicians on the various tracks (from bands such as Yes, ELP, Jethro Tull, The Doors, and many more), it is a blistering, yet faithful, tribute to the original classic album - a very enjoyable experience.

AirplaneSome of you will recall our story from November 9th last year, concerning Nick Mason helping out the Children In Need charity. Ian Doyle and Mike Ridley, who do a lot of freelance work publicising the Royal International Air Tattoo, RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, have sent us an update on this story.

Nick, along with Bruce Dickinson (vocalist with Iron Maiden and part time commercial B757 pilot), are due to make a short appearance at the world's largest airshow this summer. They have agreed to transport the winners of the BBC Children in Need Royal International Air Tattoo competition to RAF Fairford Gloucestershire in July 2007, and we have more details of what this will entail...

Pink Floyd rarity on Harvest Records CD reissue Print E-mail

Thursday, 12 April 2007

harvest logoLong sought after, and afforded almost legendary status amongst Floyd collectors, is the compilation album Picnic: A Breath Of Fresh Air. This was released in June 1970 and was particularly notable for the inclusion of the otherwise unreleased classic Pink Floyd track, Embryo.

On the release of the album, the band were reportedly aghast, as it was an unfinished demo of the track which Harvest used without checking first.

Let's hope that the band are now happier that fans hear the track, as EMI/Harvest reissue the album, expanded to a 3CD set, this coming Monday, April 16th, in the UK!
