And now for something completely different:

Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets - 'Live at the Roundhouse'

Live at the Roundhouse is unlike any other concert film connected with Pink Floyd. Its the nearest thing you can get to a time machine, transporting you back to the very earliest days of the band. Nick Mason, the only band member to have played on all of Pink Floyds studio albums, returns to the group's earliest records, joined in the line-up by Gary Kemp, Guy Pratt, Lee Harris and Dom Beken.

Nick Masons Saucerful of Secrets took the drummer back to clubs for the first time since 1967, then to theatres, across the UK, North America and Europe, playing only music his old band had recorded before The Dark Side of the Moon.

Captured from the bands celebrated shows at Londons Roundhouse, where Pink Floyd played some of their most revered early shows in the 1960s, the LPs feature a uniquely thrilling setlist including songs hailing from Syd Barretts time with the band. Only four songs from this eclectic roster have ever previously appeared on official live releases by Pink Floyd or its members. Everything else is being experienced for the first time since their original live performances.

I was initially sceptical about this, but I think it's better than some of the original LP versions. Blasphemy? - I don't care!

Now that does sound interesting. I shall investigate.

Interesting - that's going on my Christmas list. Every year it gets harder to think what to get.

Great Album

Came to it quite late, I was holding out for an affordable vinyl copy, in the end I gave up and went for CD. But with all the other albums being vinyl, it puts the CD in my OCD

On to this next, it's been a few years:
