Mark Blakes history of Pink Floyd
- the first for fifteen years
- has already been acknowledged as the final word on this remarkable bands life. Lucidly written incorporating over a hundred new & exclusive interviews it covers Pink Floyd from their Cambridge beginnings in the early sixties to their triumphant re-formation at Live 8 in 2005 24 years after their last live performance together & the death of their troubled founder-member Syd Barrett a year later. Pink Floyds albums like Dark Side of the Moon remain some of rocks biggest sellers of all every year on CD; Both David Gilmour & Roger Waters continue to do arena & stadium gigs & the market for this book will exist for many years.
