Description

Mark Blake draws on his own interviews with band members in addition to the crowd’s friends, road crew, musical contemporaries, former housemates, and university colleagues to supply a riveting history of one of the crucial biggest rock bands of all time. We apply Pink Floyd from the early psychedelic nights at UFO, to the stadium-rock and concept-album zenith of the ’70s, to the acrimonious schisms of the past due ’80s and ’90s. Along the best way there are fascinating revelations about Syd Barrett’s chaotic life on the time of Piper on the Gates of Dawn, the band’s painstaking and Byzantine recording sessions at Abbey Road, and the fractious negotiations to bring about their fragile, tantalizing reunion in Hyde Park.

Meticulous, exacting, and bold as any Pink Floyd album, Comfortably Numb is the definitive account of this so much adventurous – and so much English – rock band.
