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 at some point...watch this space!

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!

Gerald Scarfe - more appearances and book signings Print E-mail

We reported on 3rd September of the publication on November 3rd of "Drawing Blood: Forty Five Years of Scarfe Uncensored", an eager-awaited book that sees highlights of Gerald Scarfe's career compiled into a lavish hardback book.

The book is a real feast for all Floyd fans, due to his extensive work with the band, over the years, featuring a few illustrations from The Wall which haven't been seen before - alongside the five decades of incredibly varied work he has done for all sorts of people and publications.

Gerald Scarfe Drawing BloodWe recently interviewed him, and should be bringing you the transcript shortly, along with a review of his new book. In the meantime, a number of new events have been lined up:

 

  • Wednesday 23rd November: book signing and illustrated talk at Warwick Books. 7pm
  • Thursday 24th November: book signing and illustrated talk at Borders, Oxford Street, London. 6.30pm
  • Thursday 24th November: special screening at the National Portrait Gallery, London. 7pm. A chance to see SCARFE ON SCARFE - THE SELF PORTRAIT (BBC, Arena, 1986). A unique opportunity to see Gerald Scarfe and filmmaker Anthony Wall introduce their BAFTA award-winning film. This documentary has been buried in the BBC archives for years so catch this rare outing. Anthony Wall will introduce the film and will answer questions with Gerald Scarfe afterwards. For more details visit: www.artistsonfilm.co.uk and www.npg.org.uk

    We had the pleasure of attending one of Gerald's illustrated talks in London, last year, and another this month in Brighton, and both were fascinating and amusing looks at his career, including his work with Pink Floyd. Definitely worth going to one of these, if you can.

    Orders for this essential title, at time of writing at a good discount, can be placed through the following special links: Amazon.com (US/International), Amazon UK/Elsewhere, Canada, France, or Germany.
