Just a small bit of news here, but might be significant as time rolls on... there is now an official website for the Malta EU entry celebrations - malta-celebrates-eu.com - which has no Roger Waters content as yet but we're sure will cover the events of April 30th in detail, so keep checking back there!

We reported back on December 1st that the 1968 film The Committee, which is reviewed elsewhere on this site, is finally getting an official release on DVD.

The film has long had mythical status, with a heavily edited audio recording being all that most people have experienced. This recording showcases all of Pink Floyd's soundtrack for the film, specially composed and recorded - a lot of it is incidental or "filler", but with this is some interesting longer segments.

We have learnt today that it is getting a Region 2 (Europe) DVD release on July 26th 2004. We're working on finding out information on its release in other regions...

News has come our way of a new DVD to grace the Floyd fans shelves soon... a DVD follow up to the successful CD, "Pigs And Pyramids: An All Star Line Up Performing the Songs Of Pink Floyd", which goes under the same title (albeit ditching the "Pigs And Pyramids" bit).

To be released in the US on March 30th, and Europe around the same date, the DVD on the Cleopatra label features all the Floyd's best known songs, performed by the likes of Billy Sherwood, Dweezil Zappa, Glenn Hughes, Steve Lukather, Mike Porcano, Fee Waybill, Vinnie Colaiuta, Tony Levin, Ainsley Dunbar and Alan White. The DVD will be available from the normal sources, including Amazon and Floydstuff.com.

As part of the BBC's latest innovation (and a good one at that) to open up their archives of material, the local radio station BBC Radio London have made available a huge selection of interviews undertaken by their morning DJ Danny Baker. Baker is a very humourous chap and his interviews are always interesting.

Of particular interest though, is the interview with Gerald Scarfe from August 23rd 2002, that you can listen to through this link. It's a great listen and includes discussion of his work with Pink Floyd, including the sale of The Wall animation cels, with Baker trying to wind him up over the cost (and suggesting that they are "buy one, get one free"!). Currently, the interview will be available to hear indefinitely, but as plans may change on this, catch it while you can.
