So here’s to all you Pink Floyd fans that never got in to the whole bootleg collecting thing over the years! A pretty definitive box set to say the least. Yes even I was drooling a bit when I first heard about it and was gathering the intel on it. Being one of those obsessed…

Voor al Mijn Vrienden in Nederland bied ik u de Pink Floyd
Since we have been blessed with all of these great bands from the Netherlands I thought I would say thank you to them with this show review by one of my all time favourite bands, The Pink Floyd. So this is for my Dutch Family; Iris (Ier!), Frank, Eric, Peter and the other members of…
The REAL Slow Hand, Mr. David Gilmour & Co. Plays Toronto’s Air Canada Centre March 31st 2016
With a little stroke of luck from one of the sales reps at my mom’s work I was able to score seats at what was probably 20,000 people packing Toronto’s Air Canada Centre tonight. It’s amazing that David Gilmour could even hear himself play let alone sing over the the thousands of voices who sang…
Signal to Noise with Andy Jackson’s First Album
It only seems natural that if you engineer Pink Floyd albums that eventually you will release one of your own. Having worked with the Floyd or the Floyd related via solo projects they have done, Andy Jackson has certainly got a lot of influence under his belt to come up with his own ideas and…
Mauerspechte mit Das Pink Floyd (’71 Live Show Review)

Have a Cigar Whilst Raving and Drooling Cuz You Gotta Be Crazy (Pink Floyd, Vancouver Firsts in ’75)
Probably one of the first ’75 bootlegs I ever bought of the Floyd was Vancouver April 8th 1975, it was the first CD bootleg I bought I should say because I got in a trade the Ivor Wynne Stadium, Hamilton, Ontario show from June 1975 first. Who’d have thought that they would have played there…
Prog Rock Magazine’s Top 100 Artists of All Time, Selected Review
I have always been opposed to “lists” of the Top 100 this or Top 10 that, whatever it may be because every band has a different spin on what their Progginess exudes. It’s like comparing apples to tires and oranges to diamonds in a fish’s stomach. It just doesn’t make sense to me, never has,…
Pink Floyd, Ulster Hall 1969
So I thought we would start off with a lesser known show in the Pink Floyd bootleg canon. Live at Ulster Hall, Belfast, Ireland, UK June 10th 1969. The sound quality is fairly decent but not super if you’re a real audiophile of which I am not, but definitely listenable. only to be cut off…
