A Technicolor Dream DVD with Pink Floyd – Review

Links – Screen Capture Photos – Discuss the DVD on the forum The latest DVD release that all Floyd fans should get hold of is Eagle Entertainment’s A Technicolor Dream DVD! It tells the fascinating story of the emergence of the Underground scene and features brand new original interviews with a chirpy Roger Waters, Nick Mason and other people who played a significant role in the development of the whole underground movement. The DVD runs for over two hours and uses a vast array of excellent and rare video footage to tell a comprehensive story of how the underground scene developed, how the Pink Floyd came to be the house band of the underground – even if Roger apparently didn’t even know what the underground was – and how the energy of the underground went on to push Pink Floyd onto the EMI label with their debut album Piper at the Gates of Dawn. The story would not...

Roger Waters In The Flesh DVD Review By Andrew Beale

Roger Waters In The Flesh DVD Review By Andrew Beale

Roger Waters: In The Flesh DVD Front Cover “Returning from a 12-year long hiatus from the road, Roger Waters’ In The Flesh concert tours were a showcase of his best known work from his days with Pink Floyd to his recently released solo album Amused to Death. The In the Flesh tour was a massive, worldwide undertaking by Waters that spanned three individual tours over the course of three years (1999, 2000, and 2002). The title is an allusion to the 1977 Pink Floyd tour for the Animals album, as well as the two songs so titled on the album The Wall.” – Wikipedia Sound: Roger is sounding great. His voice sounds a lot better in my opinion than it did during the Wall shows.

Although he wanted to be a pop star, and would rehearse with an ever increasing amount of people in his parents living room at 183 Hills Road in Cambridgeshire, he should probably have stuck to painting as his mind may not have then disintegrated as severely and as quickly as it did. The Crazy Diamond book, first published in 1991 and...
