The photographer of that album's iconic cover, Vic Singh, got in contact with us recently with the news of the campaign initiated and coordinated by the VegetableFriends discussion group (Contact: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ) to try and ensure proper recognition of the album, which is much loved by Floyd fans and an absolute key part of the band's history. The original mono mix has been out of print for decades and is in high demand, esp. after Barrett's death last year. To find out more, visit www.ipetitions.com/petition/PiperAtTheGatesOfDawn and feel free to forward the link to other fans if you are interested in it.
Now with this petition on the Downing Street (the UK Prime Minister's residence/office) website, and with the support of David, and other well-known residents such as comedian Jim Davidson, the area hopes their 40 year battle gets more attention - and a resolution to the problem. You can find the petition at petitions.pm.gov.uk/Turnhamgreen/?ref=turnhamgreen. |
