Video: Waters/Gilmour reunion performance

Posted August 14, 2010 by Floydian Slip

Roger Waters has made available a “two-minute taster” of his reunion gig with David Gilmour, which took place at the Hoping Foundation charity event in July.

“The sound quality is crap but it was a great night for me, and for him, and also for ‘US and THEM’,” he writes on his Web site.

The video seems to be a hand-held job, shot from the audience of 200.

The duo have given the entire 29-minute set to the foundation, which plans to post it at 5 p.m. Monday UK time.

Watch the video online.

Posted August 13, 2010 by Floydian Slip

This fall, EMI/Harvest will release “An Introduction to Syd Barrett,” a compilation of remixed and remastered songs Pink Floyd‘s co-founder recorded with the band and during his brief solo career.

The title will include as a bonus track “Rhamadan,” a previously unreleased Barrett recording, to be made available as a download.

Floyd’s David Gilmour is Executive Producer of the album. Working with Damon Iddins and Andy Jackson at his Astoria houseboat studio, he’s remixed six tracks for the project: “Matilda Mother”; “Here I Go”; “Octopus”; “She Took a Long Cold Look,” renamed here “She Took a Long Cool Look”; “Octopus”; and “Here I Go,” which now features a bass guitar track, lacking in the original recording.

Jackson remastered all the other tracks from the analoge originals.

“Rhamadan” is a 20-minute instrumental by Barrett, which has never-before been released. It’ll be available as a download to those who purchase the CD or the entire album online.

Track list is as follows:

  1. Arnold Layne
  2. See Emily Play
  3. Apples and Oranges (Stereo)
  4. Matilda Mother (2010 Mix)
  5. Chapter 24
  6. Bike
  7. Terrapin
  8. Love You
  9. Dark Globe
  10. Here I Go (2010 Mix)
  11. Octopus (2010 Mix)
  12. She Took a Long Cool Look (2010 Mix)
  13. If It’s In You
  14. Baby Lemonade
  15. Dominoes (2010 Mix)
  16. Gigolo Aunt
  17. Effervescing Elephant
  18. Bob Dylan Blues

The CD will be sold in a Digipak sleeve by long-time Floyd designer Storm Thorgerson along with a 20-page booklet containing lyrics.

“An Introduction to Syd Barrett” will be released Oct. 4.
