Vintage BBC recording, video released

Posted September 1, 2016 by Floydian Slip

Pink Floyd has released a new video featuring an early performance of “Grantchester Meadows.”

The video includes film of the band’s Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Rick Wright in a 1970 KQED (San Francisco) performance and new nature footage shot by Aubrey “Po” Powell of Hipgnosis, set to audio from a BBC performance recorded May 12, 1969.

The song comes from the band’s 1969 album “Ummagumma.”

The video is the first taste of the rarities coming our way when the group releases ‘The Early Years 1965-1972″ boxset Nov. 11.

Pink Floyd exhibit to open in 2017

Posted August 31, 2016 by Floydian Slip

Nick Mason announcing Their Mortal Remains outside the Victoria & Albert Museum, London

“Their Mortal Remains,” a long-delayed exhibition devoted to Pink Floyd, will finally open in London next year.

Containing more than 350 items, promoters describe the show as an “immersive, multi-sensory and theatrical journey” through the 50-year history of the band.

Running May 13 to Oct. 1, 2017, at the Victoria & Albert Museum, the show coincides with the 50th anniversary of Floyd’s debut 45 “Arnold Layne,” released in March 1967.

Drummer Nick Mason joined a flying pig outside the venue to announce the event today.

Admission ranges from £11 to £57. Tickets can be purchased online.

The exhibition was originally to open in Milan in September 2014. But Evolve Devolve, the Italian promoter of the event, issued a statement a month before launch saying the complexity of the installation made it impossible for the company to meet the timeline.

The London event, promoted by Michael Cohl and Iconic Entertainment Studios, has the involvement of all surviving members of the Floyd.

Learn more about the event at the V&A site.

Thanks to Facebook’s TwentyThree DrumHead for the heads-up.
