Gerald Scarfe in Germany for Tear Down The Wall Exhibition

Once again, something is going on too far away for me to be fussed travelling all the way to!  Gerald Scarfe, who is responsible for all those amazing caracatures featured in Pink Floyd’s The Wall live shows, film and album sleeve, is having an exhibition in Germany of lots of his Pink Floyd things as well as his other political work. Anyway, here is the news feature on Gerald Scarfe Germany Exhibition Tear Down The Wall.

Along with the forum, probably the other best feature of this website is the photo gallery.  The Pink Floyd Photos gallery has over 2500 pictures of the band, live tour photos, posters, artwork and all sorts of other stuff. Pink Floyd Photos – lots of pictures

Pink Floyd The Wall 30th Anniversary Edition DVD or CD

Pink Floyd The Wall 30th Anniversary Edition DVD or CD

It will be the 30th Anniversary of the release of Pink Floyd’s The Wall in November 2009 which is only a couple of months away now.  It would therefore be very fitting if a re-release of The Wall was issued to the fans.  But, instead of just rehashing what already existed and adding a new booklet and charging loads of money for it, it would be nice if there was some new material.  Hence an SACD would be nice! Some of The Wall concerts of 1980-81 were recorded to film according to Roger Waters but he felt that the quality of the filming was not good enough to warrant releasing it on a DVD.  But, perhaps, it would be very suitable to be included on a hybrid SACD for example presented in glorious 5.1 stereo! Such an SACD would also be even more of a treat if it were to...

Almost everyday you fallUpon my waking eyes,Inviting and inciting meTo rise.And through the window in the wallCome streaming in on sunlight wingsA...

Seamus Lyrics – Pink Floyd – Meddle

Home / Pink Floyd Lyrics / Meddle Lyrics / Seamus Lyrics Seamus (Waters, Wright, Mason, Gilmour) 2:15 I was in the kitchen,Seamus, that’s the dog, was outside.Well, I was in the kitchen,Seamus, my old hound, was outside.Well, the sun sinks slowlyBut my old hound just sat right down and cried. 01. One Of These Days02. Pillow Of Winds03. Fearless04. San Tropez05. Seamus06. Echoes About The Song “Seamus” is one of the more unusual tracks in Pink Floyd’s discography, taken from their 1971 album “Meddle.” Named after a dog that actually “performed” on the track, this bluesy number is a departure from the band’s typical progressive and psychedelic sound. “Seamus,” the penultimate track on Pink Floyd’s album “Meddle,” is a distinctive foray into blues, complete with harmonica, laid-back guitar, and the howling of a dog named Seamus. This light-hearted and somewhat impromptu piece is a stark contrast to the band’s usually intricate and conceptual work. David Gilmour leads the song with...
