A new book about Pink Floyd's classic album, "Dark Side Of The Moon", was announced today (Sunday March 14th) for publication later this year by Ashgate Publishing.

"Speak To Me: The Legacy of Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon" will contain fourteen essays, three interviews and a 50-page annotated bibliography. Literary and music scholars from across the globe will contribute the essays, which all focus on the music, and Floydian Slip's Craig Bailey provides the preface to the book.

The three interviews are with Clare Torry, who sings on the album, Mike Gordon of Phish, who have performed the album in concert, and Michael Goldwasser of Easy Star Records, who produced the excellent "Dub Side Of The Moon" reggae tribute to Dark Side - reviewed elsewhere on this website.

We hope to have more detail on this book soon from the publishers. Our thanks to Heidi at Ashgate Publishing for her help and prompt attention!
