The matchbox that Alan uses to light up the stove to fry the bacon and eggs, would make a nice holy grail...IMO

Alan died of pneumonia yesterday in the US of A. Rest in peace, Alan.
Alan Styles passed away yesterday in a US hospital, aged 75, after suffering with pneumonia. Alan was one of Pink Floyd's main roadies for many years, and is the subject of Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast on the Floyd's album Atom Heart Mother.

She Was a Millionaire, with vocals. (Only an instrumental solo recording remains, which unfortunately contains a crash of instruments.)

Where I can find it?

'She Was a Millionare' is lost, as recorded by Pink Floyd in 1967. Tape wiped, as far as known.
The 1970 Barrett recording (without vocals and with crash of instruments) is unreleased, only described by David Parker in his book 'Random Precision' (2001).

Another holy grail:
'Seabirds' ('More' outtake).
Only sheet music (chords, vocal melody, lyrics) is available,
and a little snippet in the movie (obscured by dialogue).
Tape is said to be lost.

Yes , but Wolfpack wrote that. I wrote many things in a forum about "She was a millionaire".

Other Holy Grial:

Pawn to King five.

This song was only played in 1968. All is a obscure mystery.
