Pink Floyd: Album by Album

I enjoyed reading about all the pink Floyd studio albums. I liked the whole entire book. If your a pink Floyd fan you should read it.

Great book for the Pink Floyd fan!

'Pink Floyd: Album by Album' by Martin Popoff is an ebook telling the story of the bank Pink Floyd by going through their albums. Starting with 'The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and going to 'The Endless River,' each chapter tells the story of how the album was made and offers a moderated discussion among different people in the music business. The tragedy of Syd Barrett stayed with the band for quite a while. The eventual split of the band from vocalist/bassist Roger Waters is here. Along with stats for each album, there are lots of archival pictures of the band, album cover, tickets and other things. I As a fan of the band, I really liked this book. I was aware of most of the history, but not all the stories behind the albums. The photos and history were great as were the conversations. I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing - Voyageur Press, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

Appears to be companion to the Led Zeppelin book, by the same author.

Great price

Basic book, but a good gift.

Great book with nice photos!

Rock journalist Martin Popoff, known for his erudite studies on heavy-metal groups such as Metallica and others, delivers an essential book for every Pink Floyd fan around the world. Popoff follows the story from its beginnings and the Syd Barrett era, the more ''psychedelic'' in its nature and tone, all the way till the latest album 0f the legendary band, titled ''Endless River''. The book is divided by the number of albums which the band released through the many years of its existence and offers detailed conversations, anecdotes and personal opinions by the artist themselves or other music journalists and devoted fans. There is a lot of interesting information about the band which I believe that the majority of people simply ignore, accompanied by a great number of photographs and cover pictures, making this books an absorbing reading experience. It is sure that after finishing this book you will feel a lot more self-conscious concerning the information around the fabled progressive/psychedelic rock mega-band.

Great book

Martin Popoff's epic guide to Pink Floyd's albums is a brilliant read and well worth a purchase, not just for fans of Pink Floyd, but for music fans in general. From one of rock music's most legendary bands, prepare to be transported through half a century of so many diverse eras of Pink Floyd with 15 studio albums, from the early days led by Syd Barrett's songwriting, then a transition from psychedelic to progressive rock in the late 60s and early 70s - followed by Roger Waters' lyrical concepts in albums such as The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall, leading up to David Gilmour leading the band from 1985 to 1995 both in the studio and in concert, finally concluding with their final studio release the Endless River in 2014. Add to extraordinary interviews with both musicians and journalists about each of Pink Floyd's records, along with some brilliant photos of the band from the respective timeframe to go with the album review and discussion, and that adds to the quality of an incredible book. Well worth a purchase!

This book arrived in terrible condition. The back appears to have a crease in it and there is a gash on the cover. It is for a gift and too late to return it. Super disappointing.
