30 years of PinkFloyd in 17 Minute Video

Pink Floyd

30 years of the band in 17 Minutes

SEPTEMBER 29, 2011 | By ROLLING STONE

This trailer for Pink Floyd's new complete albums box set tells the band's entire story in 17 minutes. That may sound like a long time, but Pink Floyd have songs that are longer than that – and the band's story is pretty epic. This video starts with the 1960s psychedelic Syd Barrett era and runs through their stadium-packing days in the 1970s, the crack-up in the 1980s and the final album and tour in the 1990s. It's interspliced with new interviews and familiar archival video of live performances and footage from The Wall movie and other videos.

PINK FLOYD’S NICK MASON SAYS UPCOMING REISSUES ARE THEIR ‘LAST OPPORTUNITY TO RELEASE PHYSICAL RECORDS’

Pink Floyd drummer and resident band archivist Nick Mason has said Floyd previously had no interest in ever unleashing their outtakes, demos and other rarities on the world, but now they are gearing up for a massive reissue campaign of their entire back catalog with such goodies titled ‘Why Pink Floyd?’ What changed?

“We’ve perhaps got an appreciation now that people really are interested in this stuff,” explains Mason in a new ‘Why Pink Floyd’ promotional interview with InTheStudio.net. “I think originally there was sort of a feeling that only really, really mad people, people who lived on the moon, were really interested in all this sort of outtakes stuff.”

Mason continues, “More relevant is the fact that this is sort of the last opportunity to release physical records, that within two or three years, virtually everything will be downloaded. The thing about releasing the physical product is there’s all the artwork that goes with it, and I’d like that to be available for people who want it.”

We hope Mason is wrong about that last point — we a pretty big vinyl junkies ourselves and would hate to see everything go digital — but we will agree music is definitely going in a more digital direction. But whether or not this is the last time Floyd material is issued in a physical format, it certainly is the most expansive collections of reissues — including single-disc editions of every Pink Floyd album, as well as two-disc and box set versions of ‘Dark Side,’ ‘Wish You Were Here’ and ‘The Wall’ — that will ever be made available from the band.

Welcome to the machine - Pink floyd video

Welcome to the Machine (Waters) 7:30 Welcome my son, welcome to the machine. Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been. You've been in the pipeline, filling in time, Provided with toys and 'Scouting for Boys'. You brought a guitar to punish your ma, And you didn't like school, and you know you're nobody's fool, So welcome to the machine. Welcome my son, welcome to the machine. What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dream. You dreamed of a big star, He played a mean gituar, He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar. So welcome to the Machine.
