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!

Voiceprint is proud to release the US and Canadian version of The Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett Story
Syd Barrett was an influential and sophisticated musician who captured the spirit of an era. His abrupt departure in 1968 brought to an end the first incredible period in the Pink Floyd odyssey.

Bohemian artist, poet and visionary Syd joined Pink Floyd in 1965. He succeeded in creating a wholly original sound and together the band helped to forge the British psychedelic scene.

This unique documentary depicts the band¹s epic rise to fame under Barrett¹s influence, to his premature departure in a drug induced haze and ensuing psychological problems.

Lavishly illustrated with rare early footage of the band performing, along with new interviews with the members of the band - David Gilmour, Rick Wright, Roger Waters and Nick Mason - and their associates, fans and friends including Jerry Shirley (Humble Pie), Graham Coxon (Blur), Robyn Hitchcock and original Pink Floyd member Bob Klose.

Featuring legendary early Pink Floyd songs Shine on you Crazy Diamond, Interstellar Overdrive, Arnold Layne, See Emily Play, Bike and more.

The DVD contains an extra 23 minutes of extra footage not aired on the original VH-1 TV broadcast. In addition this version is different to the other versions of the DVD as it contains and an extra chapter of "memorabilia" and exclusively designed artwork by world renowned fine artist Mark Wilkinson.
