PINK FLOYD’S PULSE DVD UPDATE

SOME BAD NEWS REGARDING THIS RELEASE.....

In older news, we were advised that the band were also said to be considering doing yet a further mix of the PULSE CD with ADDITIONAL songs. We tend to think it's doubtful that these are new songs. It's possible (but not confirmed) that One Of These Days and the preshow ambient soundtrack that were on the cassette version, may be the additional material.

It also appears that there are moves to remaster the FULL back catalogue into the SACD 5.1 format!

High hopes was good tho. the rest were pants. The band played with no energy and aaargh its such a shame to see the best prog band go so poor.

Oh yeah, because it's a little known fact that having Roger Waters in a band prevents age from showing.

It is not true that half time the guitarist is not Gilmour, that guy is good anyways. Him and Gilmour go way back and he plays on 2 albums!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, so he's palying his own parts. 

I have seen this tape many times and adore it, this the best news I have ever heard since i heard that a band called Pink Floyd existed. I have so many people to spread the news to, thank you for the most wonderful news of my life.

I love Pulse... I attended quite a few of those shows.. and after the ELP concerts... these were the best concerts I ever saw... Coolest stage setup and light show ever... altho I tended to like the DSOT shows a little better...performance wise...

Live at Pompeii is brilliant, but not enough music and too many fake lava scenes... wasting what could of been excellent performance footage. 

PINK FLOYD'S PULSE DVD UPDATE -
AND VIDEO ANTHOLOGY TOO?

Brain Damage reports:

We spoke with Pink Floyd's management today to get an update on the
long-anticipated release on DVD of the live concert video, PULSE. Whilst it
now seems to be developing into a bit of a long-running saga, getting it
released on DVD, they are now hoping for a 1st December release
worldwide, with the exception of the US, where the aim is for Thanksgiving
- 25th November. This is by no means confirmed though - but just what
the band and management are currently aiming at.

One of the reasons for the delay, is to make some technical adjustments
and improvements. This particular DVD has a lot of complex features, and
some adjustments to things like the menus has had to be done. The band
want to make sure that this release represents the pinnacle of live concert
DVDs, and so are happy to delay it if it means that the quality is just right.

Whilst talking to them, we touched on the rumoured Pink Floyd video
anthology - and they confirmed that this was something that IS actually
being looked into! Work is being undertaken on this new project by the
same person responsible for putting together the PULSE DVD. At the
moment, it is at VERY early stages, with them looking into the possibility of
putting one together.

Naturally, it will be a long process, identifying, sourcing and getting legal
clearance on footage, so don't expect this one soon! Much of the material
will belong to, and reside in, various foreign TV stations, along with the
band's own collection. It is possible, too, that they will do as other bands
have done, and seek material from fans as well.
