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!

Has Dark Side Of The Moon changed your life? Print E-mail

Pink Floyd's 1973 classic album has been included in a special shortlist of "Music To Change Your Life" - and is in the running to be the number one choice...and you can help make it happen!

Music To Change Your Life
Music To Change Your Life
BBC Radio 2 presenter Jeremy Vine has been searching for the song that has the power to change lives. His listenership has been making suggestions, and the top ten tracks that have been nominated are now being put to a vote to find the music most likely to change one's life.

Most of you will have realised that Pink Floyd's entry is actually an album, rather than just a track; we're not sure how it qualified amongst other single songs but there you go!

Here's the selection of ultimate life changing tracks, for you to choose between:

  • God Only Knows - Beach Boys
  • Chorus Of The Hebrew Slaves - Giuseppe Verdi
  • Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
  • Say a Little Prayer - Aretha Franklin
  • Over The Rainbow - Judy Garland
  • Imagine - John Lennon
  • Something Inside So Strong - Labi Siffre
  • Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
  • Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd
  • Everybody Hurts - REM

You need to visit www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/musicclub/vine_change.shtml to place your vote. Make sure you get your vote in quickly, though - the result will be revealed during Jeremy's show on June 9th.

Our thanks to Nick Leake for the info...
