Pigs Might Fly is the first
full-length biography of Pink Floyd for over 15 years.
Author Mark Blake has previously interviewed David Gilmour,

friends, foes and more...
Bringing together these eyewitness accounts and memories,
this 418-page book traces Pink Floyd's story from their
roots in Cambridge to global stardom with The Dark Side Of
The Moon and their bitter break-up in the 1980s; from their
historic reunion at Live 8 to the untimely death of founder
member Syd Barrett in 2006, and beyond.
As
meticulous, exacting and ambitious as any Pink Floyd album,
Pigs Might
Fly
is the definitive account of this most adventurous and, at
the same time, most English of rock bands. |
