PINK FLOYD Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Syd Barrett recorded a special set just for the legendary John Peel Sessions for the cult Top Gear show which was presented by Peel himself on February 24, 1970. This is a record that captures exactly what he played and the selection also includes three extra unreleased songs recorded for a Bob Harris Sounds of the Seventies show almost exactly one year later. The tunes are paired with an equally historic Pink Floyd performance and the whole lot comes on a nice coloured slab of vinyl. It's a great way to relive a great time in prog.

Notes: English rock band Pink Floyd perform live at Earls Court in London on 20th October 1994.

The tracks performed include 'High Hopes', 'Money', 'Us and Them' and 'Wish You Were Here'.

Notes: HAVE YOU GOT IT YET? is the story of Syd Barrett & Pink Floyd, directed by Roddy Bogawa, produced by Orian Williams, and features legendary artist & designer the late Storm Thorgerson as interviewer. Thorgerson, who grew up in Cambridge with Barrett and many of the people who appear in the film, provides an intimate examination of the mysteries and myths surrounding Barrett's puzzling disappearance with rare unseen material, new interviews of the surviving Pink Floyd members, childhood friends, ex-girlfriends, and contemporary musicians. The film is at once a chronicle and a mosaic, an investigation of fame and its personal cost while also exploring the larger social context of the 60s, its hopes and failures, and a compelling story that involves us all in discovery and how one chooses a path in life, measured by the outside. Have You Got It Yet? is narrated by Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter, The Patriot)
