My band uses Pink Floyd's unused Dark Side of the Moon art

Post by mutton k »

Newbie here and life time Pink Floyd fan, indoctrinated by my older brothers in the mid 70s. I'm in a band and wanted to share the news that we got permission to use artwork that was originally done for Dark Side of the Moon when it still had the working title 'Eclipse'. The art by scifi artist David A Hardy was rejected because the 'Floyd were trying to distance themselves from the whole 'spacey trippy' thing. I love the Hipgnosis art but Im totally blown away that I could use Pink Floyd's 'reject art'!

That's OK, just a pity the video is not more about the story and not just an advert for "All India Radio"

For what it's worth, here's a link to 8 x 30-seconds of music -
