^ Definitely - it's grainy quality, Rick Wills is on bass, - maybe it's not in Japan ?? I haven't watched it for years. I know he does There's No Way Out Of Here. Now I've set myself a project - digging this VHS out......

Yep !! That's the one, I'm sure I recall Japanese subtitles on it ??? Just watching this clip, it's much sharper and colourful than I recall, I guess the video I have is umpteen generations old.......this looks like it's from 1984...?? It runs for about a half hour-45 mins thereabouts.

^ Maybe it's just these few tracks. I used to get heaps of vids from this guy who manages a 2nd hand record shop. I've soooo many 3hr VHS full to the brim of rare Floyd, Genesis, Yes, even some Hatfield & The North. I haven't watched them for years, but they are in a safe place, well looked after.....

^I have found out that the track 'There's No Way Out Of Here' was also played in a show recorded live in 1984 (April 30th) at the Hammersmith Odeon, London - however on bass was Mickey Feat. And I found it interesting that Roy Harper was on vocals too in that gig. Never listened to it to be honest, but I'm wondering if it's another 'must-have' Gilmour's release.

From Mike Portnoy's Facebook page:
"What's this about a new Pink Floyd album? The last I checked, Water's was no longer in the band and Wright and Barrett are dead. If these are leftovers from The Division Bell sessions, then just put them on a The Division Bell special-edition release! It's disrespectful to Roger and everything he built for all those years! Just do a solo album, Dave." (also quoted in issue 49 of Prog Magazine)
Hmmm, is Mike going to work with Waters in the future?

Yeah, I've seen a lot of "No Waters, no Pink Floyd" posts myself. As I said a few pages ago, I'd rather have an instrumental album (Or as much instrumental stuff as possible) than the band bussing in other writers to try and match the work Roger did.
Besides, Roger left in 1985. It's not his band any more. I do feel from the pre-orders a lot of people might be buying it just to complain "Where is Roger?" and then buy Roger's album (Whenever that gets released) to complain "Where is Gilmour?"
I did pick the Roger side in the 90's and I regret it! We're getting a relatively new Pink Floyd album. It'll stand or fall on it's own merits (or lack of) rather than "He should have been in it!".

I'll definitely give it a listen if it gets posted online but the one track I have heard is not all that interesting to me. It seems like most are saying that it's secondary material from the Division Bell sessions... is that true?

According to Gilmour and Mason, The Division Bell was initially to consist of two discs - the first one would be proper songs, and the second disc would be instrumentals. (Bowie/Eno did something like this in the late 70s, with Low and Heroes; I wonder if Floyd had something similar in mind.) At some point during the recording, they gave this up and decided to complete the songs, leaving the instrumentals for another time.
When Gilmour and Mason put it thusly, it's hard to think of the new albums as consisting of "secondary material"....

This MP quote came out a month or so ago....its a dumb post by Portnoy. He needs to realize Waters has had nothing to do with Pink Floyd in what 20+yrs..I think Gilmour stated recently that Waters has not been a factor for that long, something like that, it was a great quote by Gilmour.
