    Three concert videos and a half-hour documentary. Pretty poor showing. There's tonnes of Floyd footage / documentaries, from the Syd-era up, that could've been shown.

    Its a pity they don't show more of Syd.I know there is not a huge amount of material of him, but still, it should be as prominent as possible.

    Just finished watching (well fast fwding through...) the Delicate Sound of Thunder concert footage that was on Sky at the weekend.

    I'd seen it before but forgotten just how awful it is...the preceding documentary wasn't great either.

    Ah DSOT isn't that bad... it was what it was, a tour of a giant 80s stadium rock band. That just happened to be Pink Floyd.

    I remember having it on VHS (and cassette) and it was always on in someone's house. Personally I preferred Pompeii but DSOT had the "hits".

    Looks impressive but was there any room for inflatables?

    They had an inflatable kangaroo during "one of these days".
    Inflatables are my least favourite part of an Australian Pink Floyd or Brit Floyd show.
    Lasers on the other hand.....

    My favourite album of all time but would I get strung up if I say the final track doesn't *quite* live up to the magnificence of the rest?

    Terrible title. I'll buy it though.

    Did you hear the album he did with the Orb? I was quite pleasantly surprised by that. I thought it would be endless noodling over soft beats. That was saved for the Endless River! :pac:

    No, never got round to listening. Rattle that lock I imagine will be in the same vein as On an Island. Jools Holland, Nick Mason guesting with Phil Manzanera producing & playing.

    My favorite album by a solo Floyd, but I won't be picking it up as my original gold cd is just as good now as it was 23 years ago.
    I'm not expecting much in the Line of bonus material either as Rogers demos can be very meh!

    Heard a clip of Rattle That Lock - was an upbeat sort of track, nothing amazing.

    After "On an Island", I'll try and limit my expectations for this album, but I can't wait for the Royal Albert Hall on Sept 24th!
