- Pink Floyd FAQ - by Stuart Shea      [5877]
Aus dem Neptunefloyd-Newsletter:

Hola,

The nice people at Backbeat Books sent me over a copy of the new book "Pink Floyd FAQ" by Stuart Shea. I have read a couple of chapters and must say I like the writing style of it. It is focused around essays about Pink Floyd organised into a sort of FAQ - hence the title!

It has 35 chapters of short essays on such questions ranging from their formation, influences, greatest moments for each band member and more. Features a contribution from David Gilmour's e-wife Ginger Gilmour in the form of an afterword.

Buy from Amazon.co.uk for £8.39. Buy from Amazon.com for USD $13.59.

Kurzbeschreibung
More than four decades since their first album, and 35 years after the release of the iconic "Dark Side of the Moon", Pink Floyd continue to inspire and mystify rock fans around the world. "Pink Floyd FAQ", by pop culture author Stuart Shea, lays out the band's strange, winding history through a new series of prisms. What were the band's most memorable gigs? What are their greatest moments on record, as a group and individually? What contemporary records influenced them, and which performers follow in their wake? What was it like to be at a Pink Floyd show in 1967, in 1973, in 1980? "Pink Floyd FAQ" tells the band's story, dissects their most popular work, and provides little-known facts, all adding up to a provocative must-read for fans. With 400 pages of stories, history, observation, opinion, photos, and reminiscences from those who were there, "Pink Floyd FAQ" will discuss frankly what made the band great - as well as note their not-so-great moments - and their place in modern pop culture, giving credit where credit is due - and maybe puncturing some inflatable pigs along the way.
