Product Description
Pink Floyd has produced some of the most celebrated rock music of all time: The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall, and, recently, The Division Bell. Pink Floyd through the Eyes of . . . collects the best writing from critics and connoisseurs like David Fricke, Reober Christgau, Nick Kent, Tom Hibbert, John Peel, Charles Shaar Murray, and Julie Burchill, as well as from Pink Floyd itself. With sources ranging from underground fanzines to Rolling Stone, a track-by-track guide to the entire Floydian repertoire (including rare quotes from the band members for many of the songs), and photos new to this first U.S. edition, this collection is the quintessential guide to Pink Floyd.

For the avid Pink Floyd fan who has read everything else. May 18, 2000 Kenneth Stratemeyer (Baltimore, MD United States) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
If you're like me, you're a huge Pink Floyd fan. I've already read the major biographies, so I checked out this book. What a book it is? It offers articles written about the band and their members from the beginning to now. It's fun to read the older articles and agree or disagree with the writers. There's also an interesting section with quotes and reviews on every Pink Floyd or member solo song through 1994. An excellent book.
Before you read this book... April 15, 1998 27 out of 28 found this review helpful
I am a pink floyd lover. However, i did not know much about the band's history. I have read this book and at times it can be confusing. The dates constatnly junp around and this can confuse you. I also have read a "Saucerful of Secrets." Unfortunatly i read this after this book. I recommend reading "Saucerfull" before this book. It gives you more of a chronological history of the band. Bruno's book is everything written about pink floyd gathered into on big scrap book. Interesting but confusing.
