Pink Floyd
The Space Rock Era
Limited Edition import LP on Gold Vinyl w/ free Rock Icons magazine & interactive e-book; Pink Floyd - Reflections & Echoes
The early radio and TV broadcasts by Pink Floyd featured tracks such as Astronomy Domine, Interstellar Overdrive and Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun. Album tracks such as Cirrus Minor and the wonderful image on Ummagumma featuring the band's equipment laid out to form the image of a spaceship helped underline what was considered to be a spade rock theme. Although Roger Waters denied that Pink Floyd were ever a space rock band, the first three Pink Floyd albums are popularly known as the Space Rock Era. This anthology features the live to air broadcasts featuring Pink Floyd from 1967-1968. The TV technicians clearly struggled to get the best results with rock groups and David Gilmours's soft vocals were ferquently too low in the mix, but this in nonetheless the authentic record of the vintage sound of Pink Floyd as transmitted to the world across the airwaves.
