I caught the first half of the Pink Floyd documentary, I enjoyed it except for the pontification by Bob Geldof.

I forgot it was on but caught the middle section before falling asleep. Rolling Eyes

I enjoyed what I saw. I remember those days well, particularly "Careful with that axe Eugene" and "Set the controls for the heart of the Sun".
Having a red light bulb in one's bedroom listening to this stuff was compulsory in our neck of the woods! Razz

I also remember waiting impatiently for the feature film to start " Live in Pompeii". It sounded great over the Cinema speakers.
I have some reel to reel tapes of our own band playing long sessions of improvised stuff back then, sounding very similar to their early offerings! Laughing

What might have been.... Rolling Eyes
