PINK FLOYD 1967
Ed Paule follows the unsanitised story of Pink Floyd’s activities during 1967, the pivotal year that sees them transition from amateur to professional musicians.
The story reveals itself through this collection of virtually every known piece of paper written, photo snapped or recording taped while the year unfolds. Accompanying the text are over 500 images, most of which are not-before-published or have not been republished since their original 1967 debut.
Part chronology and part researcher’s journal, this tome is equally a reference guide and a cover-to-cover read. Hear what contemporaries are saying about Pink Floyd as the year progresses, together with perspectives from the band members themselves as quoted in papers across the globe, foreign-language and English-language papers alike. Also inside are the author’s interviews with witnesses to key events and 11 original essays on topics from Syd’s revelations from the I Ching to discovering Vic Singh’s lost photographs. Ian Barrett of the Syd Barrett Estate opens the book with an extensive foreword.
The result is a whopping 3kg (7 lbs) and 496-page tome measuring 22x28cm (8.5x11inch) that is almost 6cm thick (over 2inch). As you would expect from us, the book is printed on 170gms heavyweight silk paper, perfectly finished and clothbound in hardcover.
This makes PINK FLOYD 1967 without doubt The Bee Smart Book Co.'s most prestigious project to date. The book will be printed in a one-off edition of 500 and will be published and shipped mid-September.
PINK FLOYD 1967 is available to order exclusively from FLOYDSTUFF.com from today.
We realise that shipping costs to some areas may be hefty due to the exceptional size of the book, but these are factors beyond our control. However, we always opt for quality and this is the only way to achieve it. Hence, PINK FLOYD 1967 is published in an exceptionally small edition.
The book can be pre-ordered now. In the link you will also find additional images of the book's interior.
On 13 November 2027, exactly sixty years to the day that Pink Floyd played a concert in the Netherlands for the first and last time with Syd Barrett, a book about those sixty years will be published.
After two previous editions in Dutch, this final edition will be published in English.
I will keep you posted on the progress in the Lowlands Paradise tab above.
