Rock News Story Of The Year No. 1: PINK FLOYD
In October, Pink Floyd continued an extensive vintage video series by streaming a rare clip for “Chapter 24”, a track from the band’s 1967 debut album, “The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.”
The video mixes footage of songwriter Syd Barrett wandering around Gog Magog Hills in Cambridgeshire, UK in 1966 and the band outside EMI Studios, London during sessions for the project in April 1967.
Pink Floyd’s groundbreaking first record introduced the group beyond the UK underground scene while being hailed as one of the greatest psychedelic albums of all time.
