Thomas: And Higgins, you could be my wife.

Juliet: Why would you take your wife with you to meet a drug dealer ?

Thomas: ‘Cause we’re partners in everything we do.

Rick: Aww.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Rowan Atkinson, David Bowie’s 1978 “Beauty & The Beast” single, Paul Brindley (The Sundays), Max Bruch, Capucine, Sandy Denny, Kahlil Gibran, the groovy HAPPENING ’68 TV show, Mickey Hargitay, Michael Houser (Widespread Panic), Van McCoy, Tom Mix, Nek, Sandra Oh, Laudir de Oliveira, the 1963 New York theatrical opening of the musical OLIVER! w/Davy Jones, singer Chris Pilcher (good to sing with you), Giuseppe Sammartini, Carl Sandburg, Franz Xaver Scharwenka, Alexander Scriabin, Earl Scruggs, bassist Andy Seal (good to play with you), John Singleton, Kathy Sledge, John Smith, Charles Sumner, Ebo Taylor, Nino Tempo, Danny Thomas, Doris Troy, Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys), Kim Wilson, Paul Wilson (The Flamingos), Loretta Young, Malcolm Young, Yukana, and Syd Barrett, the famously troubled musician, guitar pioneer, singer-songwriter, and co-founder of Pink Floyd. Syd was a poster boy for 60s psychedelia—an influential and fascinating madcap who wrote most of PF’s early touchstones (“See Emily Play). Meanwhile, in Syd’s short and stormy career, he set the tone for experimental and edgy pop music, inspiring David Bowie, Flaming Lips, Robyn Hitchcock, Paul McCartney, XTC, and many more. Here’s my take of “Remember a Day” from Floyd’s SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS album and one of the last songs Syd did with the band. HB Syd—Shine on you crazy diamond…

[The Division Bell] [Pink Floyd] [1994] [CD] Pink Floyd have never had it easy, both with the "simple" listener and with the "professional" critics. An accusation that is always put in the room, that Pink Floyd copy themselves. An accusation that goes exactly in the other direction, that you move away too much from their roots. . This shows that all criticism is actually nonsense! Why should musicians not be allowed to copy themselves? And why should musicians not be allowed to deviate from their known line? . Another accusation is the band's perfectionism. Pink Floyd were already perfect in the 1970s, but here and there inconsistencies crept in, which gave the works a certain charm. On "The Division Bell" Pink Floyd play better and more perfect than ever. . It is a great disc on which the three remaining Pink Floyd members that they have not forgotten anything but have even become better. . The result is not a new prog rock album, nor a post psychadelic trip. The Division Bell is in contrast to the Work of the 1970s "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", "A Saucerful Of Secrets", "More", "Ummagumma", "Atom Heart Mother", "Relics", "Meddle", "Obscured By Clouds", "The Dark Side of the Moon", "Wish You Were Here" or even "Animals" or “the Wal”l no masterpiece, The just listed extra ordinary masterpieces can neither be surpassed by Pink Floyd themselves let alone by anyone. "The Division Bell" is simply perfectly made and damn good rock music of the highest quality to be appreciated. If a completely unknown band had created "the Division Bell", then surely all extreme storms of enthusiasm would have broken out among the self proclaimed music experts - whoa, they sound as grandiose as Pink Floyd... . . . . .

PINK FLOYD The Dark Side Of The Moon. Ultra rare 1973 UK first pressing 10-track LP with SOLID BLUE PRISM labels with silver lettering, Gramophone Co. perimeter text. This has A2/B2 matrices and has the well known pressing fault, where it skips a couple of times during the song Money. This example is within the hype stickered classic gatefold picture sleeve, which differs from later issues in that it has a single right-side pocket opening only and displays a distinct green colour tinge unlike the jet black print of later issues, also includes the black poly lined inner, two stickers & two matt posters.
