Last week, we (along with Col Turner, from our sister site A Fleeting Glimpse) had a meeting with Pink Floyd's management (PFM). In a long discussion that covered much ground (including the Live 8 reunion), we asked what was the latest on the long-anticipated release on DVD of the live concert video, PULSE, and the status of the Wish You Were Here SACD, both of which are keenly awaited (judging by the amount of emails we receive about them each week!).

There have been a number of reports in the international media, following the recent Live 8 concert in London, which featured a headline making appearance by Pink Floyd reunited with Roger Waters for the event.

The reports note that the band have been offered various amounts for either a US tour, or indeed just a one-off show in the States. Figures of $150million-$200million are being bandied about; this is nothing new though - the band have been getting such approaches for some years now. With Roger Waters and David Gilmour both working on solo albums at present, and Nick Mason working on various versions of his book, "Inside Out", there are absolutely no plans for any more concerts in the foreseeable future.

David and Roger are intending to do concerts in their own right, next year, but no group work is under consideration.

Legendary Pink Floyd cover artist Storm Thorgerson, responsible for most of their classic images, has had a new edition of his book, "Classic Album Covers of the 60s" published by Collins & Brown (which is part of Chrysalis Books).

In the book, Storm picks over two hundred examples of the best, worst, most notable, and also personal favourite covers from the decade, running the gamut of styles from barbershop quartet to the most extravagant psychedelic creations.

The much anticipated DVD release of Raymond Briggs' cartoon, When The Wind Blows, finally gets its release in the UK and Europe on September 26th. The movie, released in 1986, is a chilling tale, given extra momentum with a wonderful, atmospheric soundtrack by Roger Waters.
