Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason<\/strong> and long-time recording engineer for the band Andy Jackson<\/strong> have told Billboard more reissues might be on the way following this month’s boxset of “The Wall.”<\/p>\n

“The idea was always to see whether people like these things or not. If they do, of course we could do more,” Mason says.<\/p>\n

“There’s quite a bit of very, very early stuff, before they had a deal, with Syd (Barrett) in the band when they were still trying to be an R&B band,” says Jackson, who’s been a major player behind the boards of the entire “Why Pink Floyd?” remaster campaign.<\/p>\n

“It’s not, like, early versions of songs that turned up on their albums or anything. It’s R&B classics, the same as everybody else was playing back them,” he adds. “There’s a lot of recordings that may be brilliant for a future project.”<\/p>\n
