Watch the newly restored high-resolution version of the iconic ‘Echoes’ sequence, the final chapter from the cult-classic 1973 surf film Crystal Voyager here: pinkfloyd.lnk.to/EchoesFilm The pioneering footage which became the film ‘Echoes’ was shot by futuristic surfer, photographer and filmmaker George Greenough. By developing and building a seventeen pound 'water proof' camera rig he was able to take the audience on a POV trip inside a tubing wave for the first time ever.

From 1971...

In the Rolling Stone review of this gig in 1971, they said that "the music of Pink Floyd evokes images of cold, clear, far interstellar regions, of black moving water, of the exhilarating bleakness of the moon..."

Another Tuesday Teaser for you: what holy building is in the background of the cover of Pink Floyd's The Division Bell?

An unusual piece of footage, filmed in October 1968 for ORTF2 TV in Paris, and broadcast in November that year. Sadly, despite the multi-camera setup, you only briefly see the back of Richard Wright's head during this performance of Let There Be More Light... youtube.com/watch?v=LfNVP1Iu…

A 1971 concert with an eye-catching poster by Randy Tuten: "This design was done with part collage & part drawing. I worked in the Martian machines from H.G.Wells' War of the Worlds 1953 movie. The guys waiting for a bus on the corner of any street USA, that's why there's no lettering on the signs, and low and behold what comes along are Martians. Think they're going to pick him up? A Pink Floyd moment I think".

Out today: the special Orange Vinyl Edition of Pink Floyd’s 1971 album 'Meddle' for National Album Day 2026. "The great thing with Meddle is that it's the band playing for the enjoyment of it. It probably is one of the freest albums of all in terms of how we played it. It was one of those things that we really looked forward to playing.” Nick Mason Order Meddle here: pinkfloyd.lnk.to/MeddleSTOMV

The first of two shows at the Pepperland Auditorium in 1970 didn't go smoothly for Pink Floyd. They experienced power failures during the opener Astronomy Domine, and the encore A Saucerful Of Secrets...

Watch the newly restored high-resolution version of the iconic ‘Echoes’ sequence, the final chapter from the cult-classic 1973 surf film Crystal Voyager here: youtube.com/watch?v=rqKgGwqL… “We watched it for the first time when we were on tour in Australia and we were all blown away by it. It was absolutely sensational. Nowadays everyone's got a GoPro fixed to their wetsuit, but at the time it was mind blowing to see the guy with the camera strapped to his chest, going through the water tunnel.” Nick Mason The pioneering footage which became the film ‘Echoes’ was shot by futuristic surfer, photographer and filmmaker George Greenough. By developing and building a seventeen pound 'water proof' camera rig he was able to take the audience on a POV trip inside a tubing wave for the first time ever. "I'm just so stoked that this whole thing is coming about; it’s amazing to work with Pink Floyd again. The big sound and the big picture; you can't beat it!" George Greenough The newly restored film arrives ahead of a new San Tropez Orange Marble vinyl edition of their landmark 1971 album Meddle, for this year’s National Album Day @AlbumDayUK out on October 17th.

The International Times described the Floyd's element of this show thus: "The Pink Floyd, psychedelic pop group, did weird things to the feel of the event with their scary feedback sounds, slide projectors playing on their skin - drops of paint run riot on the slides to produce outer space, prehistoric textures - spotlights flashing on them in time with a drum beat…”

1966...

One of a few gigs in 1967 where Pink Floyd played Reaction In G, an instrumental that was recorded but never released.

Filmed today in 1969, and broadcast by German ARD1 TV on December 27th that year, here's the band playing A Saucerful Of Secrets: youtube.com/watch?v=RR6WoKCC…

Pink Floyd's High Hopes was released in the UK on October 10th, 1994, as the second single from The Division Bell. It was pressed across several collectible formats, including 7" clear vinyl, a 12" etched blue vinyl, and CD singles.

On this day in 2003, Pink Floyd's first exhibition, Interstellar, opened in Paris, France. Running until January 2004, it was - like Their Mortal Remains, which followed much later - a fascinating journey through their story and included items which weren't in the later staging. Here's the free, fold-out poster from the exhibition:

It's 30 years today since Richard Wright released Broken China, his second and final solo studio album. It is a much loved conceptual work co-written and produced with Anthony Moore and features a guest performance on vocals by Sinéad O'Connor. David Gilmour provided a guitar part for the track Breakthrough, but this was not used on the final release.
