Oooh, got this book in the post this morning and it's a heavy bugger.

Here's the (shortened) link to it: http://tinyurl.com/2twsmh

Interestingly, here's the "about the author" stuff from Amazon, which I didn't know:

Glenn Povey was the founder of the highly regarded Pink Floyd
fan-magazine Brain Damage which he edited between 1985 and 1993. He was
responsible for launching the career of the Australian Pink Floyd Show, a
band he subsequently managed for two years following their debut UK show at
the first International Pink Floyd Fan-Convention, an event he organised at
Wembley Stadium Conference Centre in 1993.


Definitely worth a read I think.

Yes, Rick playing guitar in an early incarnation is an interesting one.

Glad this book has come up.  It's a treasure and Glenn's a great guy.  Two of my friends, Linda and Jon Rosenberg helped out with pictures and other bits and Glenn makes a dedication to them.

Jon and Glenn are old friends and previously collaboratied in bringing Pink Floyd history to the masses.  Jon wrote a book called A  Journey Through Space and Time with Pink Floyd.  Sadly out of print now, but well worth the read if you can find a copy.

Linda is a fantastic photographer and on her visits to the UK, we've spent many happy hours together snapping away at shows.
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes ...
