so was it any good?

Rick always struck me as the least arsey member of the band so i'd be curious to hear what he had to say about their story

Yes, it wasn't too bad I guess. You can probably listen to it on the BBC site somewhere.

No worries.
I have captured the interview and cut out all the songs in between out, so it's around
22 megs now... ideal for a quick download.
I'll get it up on yousendit from my home comp.

HERE's the interview if anyone wants to download it.
I think I'm not breaking any rules by posting this... am I? :?
I managed to remove some pops and clicks but the stream itself was a bit crappy... so it'll have to do I'm affraid.

Listening to the interview, it's a pity that Rick wasn't interviewed more often. He was an interesting man who was less guarded than Gilmour and Mason when it came to being interviewed on all things Pink Floyd.
