Overview

Although multi-million selling albums such as Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall are justifiably at the forefront of the Pink Floyd canon, the solo work of all five members - Syd Barrett, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Roger Waters and Rick Wright - is a largely undocumented and fascinating aspect of the band's ongoing history. It is certainly diverse, from Barrett's mercurial early-70s album, The Madcap Laughs, through Waters' ever-acerbic solo concepts, to Gilmour's mainstream post-Millennium releases such as Rattle That Lock. And lest we forget the often under-appreciated contribution Mason and Wright made to Pink Floyd, their solo works are also represented, along with the session and production duties each Floyd member has undertaken over the years - some of which may raise an eyebrow or two! The ground-breaking nature of Pink Floyd's music has been kept alive and well in the releases of all solo members and has long been screaming out for analysis - something this book provides with compelling enthusiasm and insight. Listing every studio track they have released - placing them in chronological order - this is the perfect book for those who wish to delve deeper into Pink Floyd.
