We've got a bunch of old farts lurking about in here, so maybe somebody remembers what was the name of a brilliant PF site that I used to browse a ton sometime 10-15 years ago. 

What I remember is that the design was mostly white and built around a row of CD case spines, and opening each album page they had masses of trivia about the album and its supporting tour. Lots of pictures and interesting stories. 

I miss that page and I'm hoping that if someone remembers the name, or, even better, the address, I could get my hands on it again via Wayback Machine.

This old fart is too senile too remember. At least in your case.

I remember that site but don't remember the name. Maybe one of these: http://www.pinkfloydarchives.com/WebSites.htm ?

I went through that list a couple of times, no names rang a bell at all Ermm Maybe I'll try each dead link in Wayback Machine at some point.

What a wonderful trip into 90s web design, though!

I think that you may be thinking of a site called pfco, Pink Floyd & co. All their material was transfered to Neptune Pink Floyd when the owners, Joe and Sandy, retired.
Try this link:
https://pfco.neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk/

Sorry, I can never remember how to properly post a link. Embarrassed

Can't think of an extant 1st world social media platform where 'old farts' would be considered a positive epithet so why not deal with the potential response of "go take a royal f.u.c.k to yourself" as representative of state of the art informed inquiry. Ignore the invertebrates they clearly enjoy the abuse
