Pink Floyd : Their Mortal Remains
ISBN: 9781851779161
Publication Date: 1 July 2017

Pink Floyd: Their Mortal Remains celebrates 50 years of one of the greatest bands of all time. Lavishly illustrated throughout with material from the band's archive, including never-before-seen photographs, ephemera, and more, this book examines what makes Pink Floyd unique, from the mythology underpinning their output ; to their musicianship, epic staging, and performance impact.
