Pink Floyd 1968WOW - it's now the 27th YEAR of Brain Damage, your Pink Floyd, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Syd Barrett, Richard Wright and Roger Waters news resource!

Marking the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd's iconic 1975 album, a range of Wish You Were Here 50 celebratory editions: deluxe box set, blu-ray, 3LP set, 2CD set and coloured vinyl single LPs came out at the end of last year. Full details here. The LA 1975 concert, recorded by Mike Millard and remastered by Steven Wilson, came out as a standalone item on 4LP for Record Store Day, and 2CD across most of the world.

The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, and digital was also released in 2025 - and is NOT to be missed. As is the 4K UltraHD edition out now!

Also last year, celebrating the concerts to coincide with David Gilmour's album, Luck and Strange, cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options were also released and are getting very high praise.

The Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets 2024 Set The Controls tour revealed a band in even better form than the 2022/23 shows which managed to exceed everyone's hopes and expectations! Our sincerest hopes are that they continue, but in the meantime, there's their RSD release, and the earlier live recording from London's Roundhouse on Blu-ray, DVD/2CD, and 2LP which is really excellent.

Of course, Roger Waters read three extracts from his memoirs in October 2023 at the London Palladium, so it might not be too much longer before that is published...he's also working on his new album based around The Bar - we'll let you know as soon as we get all the info! Before all that though is the release of Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill Live In Prague on 4LP vinyl, Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD and digital which is out now.

'Abbey Road: The Best Studio in the World' new book soon Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Tuesday, 03 July 2012

Abbey Road: The Best Studio in the World'Abbey Road: The Best Studio in the World' by Alistair Lawrence is published by Bloomsbury in the UK on July 19th 2012 (and in North America on September 25th). This first photographic celebration of the most famous recording studio in the world is published to coincide with the studio's 80th anniversary, the 50th anniversary of the first Beatles recording at Abbey Road and the 40th anniversary of the recording of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon.

Abbey Road Studios has been at the heart of the music industry for 80 years and is an iconic symbol of British music. With its unique blend of vintage equipment and cutting-edge technology, it remains one of the most technically advanced recording, mixing and mastering facilities in the world.

Written by freelance music journalist Alistair Lawrence with a foreword by Sir George Martin, Abbey Road celebrates the 80th year of the world's most famous recording studio in style. From the special preview we've seen, this new book looks a must-have for all music lovers, and in particular, Floyd fans. From the original bill of sale for the property and classic landmark recordings to today's sessions, Abbey Road takes the reader through the studio's illustrious history.

Featuring interviews with key figures and a wealth of rare and never-before-seen photos collected from the studios' own private archive, the book should provide a fascinating insight into the creative home of artists such as Kate Bush, The Beatles and Pink Floyd. Our full review of the book will be here shortly.

The rather lavish book is priced at £50, but you can currently get up to 39% discount by ordering the book now through the various Amazon stores through these special links: Amazon UK, Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Amazon France, and Amazon Germany.
