The Australian newspaper, the Sydney Morning Herald of December 30th, had a long interview with the music teacher of Islington Green School, Alun Renshaw, who provided the kids choir for Pink Floyd's Another Brick In The Wall.
The interview, which can be read in full at their website, is an interesting look at the creation of the recording, and the reaction of those within the school, and also in the public eye (such as Prime Minister of the time, Margaret Thatcher)...

Nick Mason's book "Inside Out - A Personal History Of Pink Floyd" is now on sale in the UK, Canada, and a few other countries, is a truly essential purchase - and if you've not been fortunate enough to get your hands on a copy, we've got news of how you can get hold of it for a bargain price.
For a limited time, Amazon UK are offering it for an incredible £12 a copy - believed to be well below the retailers cost price of the book! Be quick as we guess that they won't last long at this price (the normal price of the book is £30!). They will ship the book worldwide...
Alternatively, signed and dedicated books are still being offered to UK fans, using the order form found in our side menu, but be aware that this is a time limited offer. The books are priced at £30 plus shipping, and for those of you who have asked the question, it is DEFINITELY Nick that is signing these!
With Nick currently on holiday, any orders for signed books won't be processed until his return in January - please be aware of this if you are ordering one.

A year or so ago, an official Brazilian release appeared of the film, and this month, a remastered version has appeared in Germany, which is a big improvement to the Brazilian version.

Further to our news posted on November 30th concerning Nick Mason's interview for BBC Radio Scotland, regarding his wonderful new book, "Inside Out, A Personal History Of Pink Floyd", we have an important update for you on broadcast details.
A snippet of the interview was broadcast in November, but the whole thing will be broadcast tomorrow, Wednesday December 29th, on the BBC Radio Scotland Arts Show, which airs between 6:05pm and 7:05pm GMT (five minutes earlier than previous advised). A further important point is that the interview will only be aired via their FM broadcast, or online via the BBC Radio listen live link.
