When I was a teenager and obsessed with the Floyd and the elusive and mysterious Syd Barrett, I studies ever page of this very informative book. This was well before the internet, so as for those of my generation, you know well that if you wanted to know absolutely everything about an certain musical group or anything else, you had to go to the library, bookstore or talk to those in the know. A volume such as this, filled with interview excerpts, many photos, show posters and ticket stubs plus an almost day to day chronology of tour and studio time dates, plus a complete discography with bootleg vinyl thrown in as well. Books such as these were our Wikipedia.

My wife bought me this book shortly after we started dating and it just might be the reason I married her.
This book has virtually everything a die-hard Floyd fan could want, all the way through The Division Bell. There are thousands of pictures and stories to accompany them all the way through. I caught a contact high just looking at it.
