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!

Pink Floyd Artwork exhibition Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Tuesday, 04 December 2001

The December issue of Record Collector magazine reports that "EMI is staging exhibitions of Floyd artwork, including pieces by Roger Dean and Storm Thorgerson, in Birmingham, Manchester and London [UK]".

We've been in contact with EMI about this - in their words: "...it was an exhibition that was held in Fulham (and is now over and done!) in conjunction with the original sleeve artwork artist..." I've now found out further details - it was at a gallery called "number nine" at Brindleyplace, Birmingham. They held: "Pink Floyd, The Beatles & Psychedelia 2001 - The Art of Rock'n'Roll" - on October 8th - 29th 2001. This was...

"...a unique art & music exhibition presenting the art for music works of the leading college of artists in the music art field: Alan Aldridge, Peter Blake, Roger Dean and Storm Thorgerson Featuring an exclusive presentation of Pink Floyd artwork by Storm Thorgerson, and the exclusive launch of the best of Pink Floyd "echoes" by Storm Thorgesen. The preview at numbernine will be attended by both Storm Thorgerson and Alan Aldridge - Peter Blake will be visiting the gallery the following week. The opening will be broadcast LIVE on Carlton TV at 6.00pm, Monday 8th October 2001. Live relay of art projected on to Battersea Power Station, the 18ft inflatable pig from The Wall in Berlin concert will be flying outside the gallery, the Division Bell sculptures and Alan Aldridge's pinball machine will also be on show. Storm Thorgerson has also released the original Dark Side of the Moon artwork for sale at the gallery, never seen since 1973. Additional artworks by Alan Aldridge, Peter Blake and Roger Dean together with limited edition signed fine art prints and artefacts. Simultaneously showing in Los Angeles, Seattle, Cleveland, Glasgow and London."
