Pink Floyd: Shine On Review: Revealing oral history

The whole brilliant, sorry saga of Pink Floyd in their own – and a multitude of others’ – words. Read MOJO's review in full.

YouTube video by Cliff Richard - Topic Always (2004 Remaster)

Younger than Ringo, younger than John Lennon, Happy 85th Birthday Cliff Richard.

If this song had been recorded by Scott Walker for Scott 4 it would be hailed as a masterpiece

Just received this email from ebay. Genuinely considering never using it again

Thank you x

Thank you Jude x

One of my mum’s last wishes was that she wasn’t remembered for the way that the cancer had brutalised her. So today, four years gone, I choose to remember:
1) she was accepted into the Royal Ballet
2) she saw The Beatles, twice
3) she loved Higher State of Consciousness by Josh Wink

Love you Mum x

Oh man, get in there H!

I have finished the new Partridge and it is, of course, exemplary. But I think for the first time, the pathos has superseded the big laughs. He just seems really lonely. An aching life long loneliness that is at the very core of everything he is and has ever been

I would be grimly fascinated in knowing how they all feel this evening

I genuinely think about those other band members quite often. I couldn’t hum a single tune and can only name one but, well, fuck. It’s a *lot* to deal with

Say what you want about Will Smith but I just don’t think we’ve ever given him enough credit for calling his late 1999 album ‘Willenium’

“Extremely good. We loved it. You can never have too much Ringo”

“A must for any discerning Fab shelf”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Record Collector

Happy 55th birthday to Atom Heart Mother. The grandfather of my children played trombone with the band at this time. His contribution is not remembered kindly.

Hard agree Stevie

“Righteous and exhaustive account of one of the biggest bands of all time. If oral histories are generally more about sculpting than writing, then PINK FLOYD SHINE ON is the Michelangelo’s David of the genre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
Record Collector

Huge thanks to @jeres.bsky.social

Post a fictional comedian who definitely would accept an invitation to the Riyadh Comedy Festival

Ten years later and tickets secured for their next London gig. Truly one of our all time greatest bands

“I’m now free of the hassle and the deliberate spokes in the wheel that have gone on in the many years since Roger left. It hasn’t been easy to try and keep it on an even keel to be honest. But now I no longer have to give a shit”
David Gilmour

You can always trust @resident-music.com. This Geese album is magnificent

Nope. I had no idea either

Keren Ann has been quietly brilliant for over 25 years now. Her 2011 album ‘101’ is essential. Her new album ‘Paris Amour’ might be even better
