Brain Damage and A Fleeting Glimpse

Pink Floyd 1968WELCOME TO THE 26th YEAR OF BRAIN DAMAGE, YOUR PINK FLOYD, DAVID GILMOUR, NICK MASON, SYD BARRETT, RICHARD WRIGHT AND ROGER WATERS NEWS RESOURCE!

It's 2025! This year sees the 50th anniversary of Wish You Were Here, which is an incredible thought; where does the time go?!

The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, digital and cinema screenings are now here - with some more cinema screenings in selected places. However you experience it, it is NOT to be missed!

There's also been three Record Store Day releases released on April 12th, from David Gilmour, Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets, and Roger Waters which are also definitely worth tracking down, either in a participating store, or online, now that RSD has finished.

Last year, David Gilmour's superb new album, Luck and Strange, was released in a variety of formats, and a selection of coloured vinyls. A limited number of concert dates thrilled crowds in Brighton and London, England, Rome, Italy, and Los Angeles and New York, USA. Rome shows were filmed for release and cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options have now been announced.

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 the 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 long 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 on August 1st!

Alan Parsons doing talks in Abbey Road Print E-mail

Alan Parsons and David Hepworth, Abbey Road Studios

London's legendary Abbey Road Studios is opening its doors to the public this November to host a series of lectures under the name 'Sleeve Notes: From Mono To Infinity' presented by acclaimed music producer and recording engineer (plus one-time Vice-President of the Studios…) Alan Parsons.

During the talks he will be opening up about the development of his own skills and experience as an engineer, producer and recording artist at Abbey Road, placing these alongside the ongoing developments in music technology at the Studios that allowed him and others to create such ground-breaking records that continue to survive the test of time.

The talks will include audio, footage, photos and the vintage studio equipment used to create some of his and the Studios' classic tracks. They will also include an audience Q&A co-hosted by David Hepworth whose journalistic and TV credits include work for The Guardian, NME, Q, Mojo and The Old Grey Whistle Test.

Alan Parsons' career at Abbey Road began when he was a trainee engineer on The Beatles' final two albums, Let It Be and Abbey Road, and he went on to handle mixing duties on Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother and The Dark Side Of The Moon. As an artist and producer in his own right in the Alan Parsons Project he went on to record a series of works throughout the 70s and 80s at Abbey Road including Tales Of Mystery And Imagination, I Robot, and Eye In The Sky.

Tickets for the events are now available through this direct link at Seetickets. The sessions take place on Friday 13th November 2015, at 3pm and 8pm; Saturday 14th, at 11am and 4pm; and Sunday 15th at 4pm.
