David Gilmour - 2006.03.20 - AVRO Radio 2
You didn't think there would be any more interviews from the On An Island tour, did you ? How could there be any more ?? Well, Skippy, here's another one... from Dutch radio to you!

Nick Mason - 1967-March SRP3
An interview from super early in their careers.. Interviews this early don't come around often. In fact, I can only think of three. A pity that it's so short...
Nick!

2005.March.11 - Nick Mason France Inter Online Archive
This is an online interview of Nick promoting his book. It does have French overdubbing.. *sigh*

David Gilmour - 1980 - Phone Interview
As a phone interview, never intended for broadcast, not subject to editing, this is a little more informal than a typical interview. But, it's also a little rougher around the edges.

I didn't want to go into the world of video. Believe me, if you think I've got a lot of interviews - and there are *many* remaining - it's nothing compared to the videos. Uploading it all would take literally years. But, I wanted to upload this one for The Real 2.0 & didn't want to just leave the links in a comment.

Roger Waters Interview
Here's a weird interview thing... You get Roger's answers, but no audio for the questions. I guess you're meant to record yourself asking the questions, then play Roger's answer so you can "pretend" to be interviewing him. I didn't keep any records of where I found this thing.. But, the questions are provided in a text file. The audio was originally in RealAudio, but this has been converted to .wav (.flac) for you.
If you happen to know the origin of this interview, please leave a comment! Thanks!

Dark Side Of The Moon - 30th Anniversary EPK
Here is an EPK that I found online for the special 30th anniversary edition of DSotM.
Some Seabirds
I ripped the audio from the official More DVD and normalized all of the song sections between the dialog so we can hear it as well as could be expected considering... At normal volume, some portions are essentially silent. This archive contains three versions of Seabirds - 1) the completely unprocessed version from the DVD 2) My normalized version (much louder) and 3) a cover version that I found. It's a crappy .mp3. But, it's the only copy that I could find. If you've got a better sounding cover, please get in touch!

You no doubt recall that back in 2000, the 20th anniversary of The Wall album, a live version of The Wall was officially released for the first time. This is the radio show that celebrated the release. It includes the usual groovy interviews.

Pink Floyd - Rockline - 1988
1977-May - In Search Of Pink Floyd
This is one of the most peculiar radio documentaries about the Floyd you're likely to hear. The premise is that the station are trying to track down the Floyd for an interview, but they go about it in a most round-about fashion. There's a wind-up right at the end, but they never did get to speak to the band...
They did speak with Alan Parsons, Roy Harper, one of the band's technicians and various others though and the show is somewhat enlightening about the 'Flying Pig' incident over London, when it broke free of it's tethers while shooting the pictures for the 'Animals' album cover. And the presenter speaks at length with a rather bemused night-shift manager at Heathrow Air-Traffic Control...

Zabriskie - What's The Point

The content is for Floydian completists, but as obscure artefacts of Floydian projects go, this is one of my favourites. On the music front, the show opens and closes with "Come In Number 51" but otherwise there's little of a Floydian nature to get excited about.
What is interesting though is the subject of the discussion, and the context to which it puts the Floyd's soundtrack, and the historical / cultural context within which they were composing the music. Zabriskie is a dense, and pretty impenetrable movie, and a lot of people write it of as a 'too much talk not enough action' show... I think the discussion in this show helps reveal some of Antonioni's intentions and make the movie a more enjoyable watch. Both the movie and this radio show, are probably more for the die-hards, even so.

1968.May.25 - BBC Radio 1 RW Interview 'The Story Of Pop'

Pink Floyd'The Story Of Pop No. 26 : A Trip On The London Underground'BBC Radio 1 Broadcast 1994-07-12
Complete Documentary Broadcast. 58'19"
Includes Roger Waters Interview by Brian Matthews recorded 1968-05-25.
The interview was recorded during the band's session for the Top Gear show broadcast by the BBC on 1968-11-08, but it wasn't featured in the broadcast at that time. I believe that the interview was intended for the 'Top Of The Pops' Transcription Services show, which the BBC made for sale to foreign stations around the world.

2007-02-20 - RW Colombia Radio Interview
Some DJs at a radio station in Columbia did a phone interview of Roger before his show there. Very strange stuff, indeed! This is another web capture. It's 45 minutes long & very worthwhile!
Nick Mason - Superstars - Wall Special Dec-04
Nick Mason appeared on the Superstars program on Virgin Radio back in December of 2004 to talk about The Wall. It was the 25th anniversary of the release of The Wall.
Master Tapes - Tape 1
I'll still post the odd radio show or two, as they turn up in the archives. But, I think I'll gradually turn to a series of master reels that I happened to discover. Each reel was transferred to DAT. Each DAT was digitally dumped to a computer as a .wav file. The .wav files were converted to .flac and then to a series of .rar files. I'll provide you with the descriptions, as written on the original reels. These reels are from a very serious collector & are the sources used for virtually every RoIO from these dates since. I asked a bunch of friends to compare with other released versions of these shows. We found that these versions are almost always slightly longer (more audience noice and longer pauses between songs - the kinds of things that are cut for commercial RoIOs) and have better audio spectra than other versions. In other words, even if you already have these shows, you'll want this version. As suggested above, I have done absolutely no editing, sound adjustments, or other manipulation.
DAT recorders can record in different sound quality levels. Again, you get exactly the quality of the original DAT tape. This means better-than-CD for most of them.

1976 - Capitol Radio Series
.jpg)
This installment has a silly story associated with it... It is made of 6 shows. Three were played at the end of 1976 and three were played at the start of 1977. For the 30th anniversary, the host, Nicky Horne, wanted to rebroadcast all 6 parts. But... The masters had gone missing. He turned to The Fans looking for a copy. I sent along this copy. He promised to send an autograph, but never did. *bummer*
.
Listen to Dave & Roger dance around each other. It's strange to hear looking back.

Joe Boyd - She Comes In Colours - 4-9-07

I know that the issue of the date format will probably come up again... Well, I got this show from a different forum & I never did follow-up about the date. So, I really have no idea. The file was created in October 2007, so that's not really helpful. Had it been August, things would've been simple.
Joe was promoting his book, White Bicycles, which is really entertaining if you haven't read it. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Boyd for about a minute or so back in May 2007. Whereas I hate to draw conclusions about a person from so short a meeting, let me just say that he had a big smile and a friendly handshake.

Gilmour - 2006-March-13 In The Studio
This is a great 1 hour long interview. Apparently, I have it from 2 different sources. To be honest, I don't remember how that happened. I included both sources in the archive, though.
This is the last of the "On An Island" radio shows that I have... I've still got about 50 or so other Pink Floyd radio shows to plow through... Most of what is to follow will be lossless from original promo CDs and things...

Gilmour - 2006-April-11 WMMR
This is a nice little interview. It's about 22 min long. The interview was archived by the radio station on their web site in .mp3 format. So, that's what I am passing along here...
Gilmour - On An Island - The Single - World Premier
The very first time that the first song from On An Island was played on the radio was on Steve Wright's show. Tune in, again, to that magic moment here.....
2006-Feb-14 White Label - DJ review of OAI
The radio show's hosts had just gotten their copy of OAI and were playing bits of it on the BBC for the first time, talking about meeting Dave and how great the album sounds, etc. It's only about 9 minutes long, but it is fun to hear how genuinely excited they were to be playing the album.

2006/08/24-25 Gilmour & Mason interview - Italian radio - Paradiso

See the original web page here. There were two parts - each of which was pretty extensive & in good quality. Sadly, neither remains available online. However, you can grab the whole darn thing here -

Pink Floyd - 2006-April-1 French radio
From Brain Damage - "Tomorrow, the French branch of RTL broadcasts a Pink Floyd special on its radio service. Each week, George Lang tells the story of a major artist or band, using interviews with the performers themselves. Tomorrow (April 1st) at 11pm (CET) the two-hour show looks at the Pink Floyd story. You can listen to the live stream of the radio station by going to www.RTL.fr. "
I recorded 3 hours - just in case - and all three hours are full of Floyd and at least one person speaking French. I don't speak French, so am rather hard pressed to describe the content. I do not hear any band interview segments.

Gilmour - 2006-March Album Of The Week (Radio 2)
Each day of the week, a morning radio program on BBC Radio 2 would play a new song from On An Island along with some of Mr. Gilmour's thoughts on the song. At the time, I could capture RealMedia as .wav files, so that's what you're going to get if you download this one - .rar files that package the .shn files made from my .wav files preserving the .rm files from the BBC web site. B-) It's madness, I know. But, you'll get all five installments in just 3 parts!

Gilmour - 2006-March-27 schiffersfm.radio2.nl
Approximately 25 minutes of interview. The .mp3s were available for download shortly after the broadcast. They talk about the origins of art, how Dave picks his setlists, and loads of other weirdness.
Gilmour - 2006-March-06 Q107 (Toronto)
Gilmour - 2006-March-05 KZPS Dallas

This is a 52 min interview . Mostly OAI music with some thoughts sprinkled here & there. It's a web stream capture.
Gilmour - 2006-March-07 - NPR
This is a 4-minute review of On An Island, not an interview. But, it's a nice review! Taken from the NPR web site.
Gilmour - 2006-March-04 DG BBC Radio 2 Jonathan Ross
An interview of about 35 minutes or so on the subject of Mr. Gilmour's birthday and the release of On An Island. Quite a lot of talk about the recording process & aging. We also learn as which animal Mr. Gilmour would care to be reincarnated. I have included both a web stream and an off-air recording.

Gilmour - 2006-March-02 - Front Row
A thirteen minute interview on Astoria. It's obviously mostly on the subject of On An Island, but there are other little tangents here & there. The version shared here is an off-air recording, for maximum listening pleasure.
Gilmour - 2006-April - Ken Bruce - Tracks Of My Years
Gilmour - 2006-Feb - Jeff Woods

Excerpts from David's interview with Legends of Classic Rock host Jeff Woods, recorded aboard the Astoria in February 2006.
Gilmour - 2006-April-15 - Sirius Radio
From the web site at the time, "US RADIO INTERVIEW WITH DAVID GILMOUR - TOMORROW: Sorry for the short notice - but tomorrow (Saturday April 15th), David's interview with Sirius Radio airs on Channel 18/The Spectrum at 3pm Eastern Time. David talks with The Spectrum's Dave Mac about life as a family man and musician, and plays some songs from his new album, On An Island."
It was not easy to hack the web stream... But, it seemed the only option on such short notice. It's a 47 min interview that is very worthwhile. I wish the quality was a little better. But, we can't have everything, can we ?
