Pink Floyd's extraordinary career has now spanned four decades, from their early days pushing the cutting edge of British psychedelic pop to their massive successes with moody, conceptual masterpieces like Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall, to their acrimonious split with Roger Waters and finally, the immense stadium tours that followed. Throughout, Pink Floyd has influenced everyone from David Bowie to Nine Inch Nails to Radiohead, and their albums continue to have timeless appeal. Now, premier interview journalist Alan di Perna and the editors of Guitar World have collected penetrating interviews and insights into Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, and Rick Wright to create a vivid portrait of a notoriously reclusive band.

NOT TOO MUCH NEW HERE,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Guitar World Presents Pink Floyd (Paperback)
Anyone who is familiar with Pink Floyd knows their story. It's been printed often enough, so there is nothing new here in that regard.Having said that, I would recommend this for anyone who hasn't seen any of this info and for the interviews contained within, especially the ones from David Gilmour as you get areal sense of who he is as a person.
