High

This article has been rated as High-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

Articles

Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list.

This article does not yet have a related to do list. If you can think of any ways to improve the article, why not create one?

EP "double album"?!?[edit]

Live at Montreux Casino Pink Floyd Live at Montreux Casino is a currently unreleased live double disk acetate EP by the English rock band Pink Floyd. The double album contains performances from shows which took place on the 21 and 22 November 1970, at the Casino De Montreux in Montreux, Switzerland. The EP was intended as a promotional marketing tool and it entered the collectors market in the late 1980s.

This requires some explanation. An EP is a vinyl record of about 10 - 25 minutes of material. Why would there be a double EP when it could be just one LP? Is anybody sure this description is accurate? By no means am I saying it CAN'T be true, just that it seems unlikely, doesn't make sense. --63.25.235.117 (talk) 14:16, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't make sense to me either, but it has been done. Alcuin (talk) 17:35, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While I don't understand why someone would want to release a double EP, it's not like it hasn't been done before. For example, the English version of Magical Mystery Tour by The Beatles. 68.201.3.131 (talk) 11:56, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it does make a tiny bit of sense to make a double-EP instead of a single LP. It gives you more reason to use a gatefold sleeve, for one, which means nicer artwork. Secondly, the farther spaced grooves (and the 45 RPM speed, if used) give the record a bit better sound quality and less scratch noise (each scratch introduced to the disk cuts across fewer grooves as they're farther apart). I suspect you might also be able to master an EP with higher volume cos of the groove distance, but I'm not sure. (My old Jesus and Mary Chain 12"es are quite a lot louder than their albums.)

Scream Thy Last Scream[edit]

Does someone know who sings the sped-up vocal track? I played the song in low speed, and it obviously not Barrett (compare his voice in the only line he sings to the sped-up voice), but I'm still not 100% sure it's Mason. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.125.3.15 (talk) 20:14, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Live in London 1971"?[edit]

Judging from the track list (and song lengths), this is obviously the July 1970 Paris Cinema concert recorded and broadcast by the BBC. Unless there were plans to release this as an album, it can hardly qualify as an "unreleased live album". (Maybe the BBC recordings could be added to the Pink Floyd live performances page?) -- 87.165.205.245 (talk) 23:12, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Citation[edit]

"An album of Ambient Music recorded during the sessions for The Division Bell. The band seriously considered releasing it[citation needed], but the idea was abandoned." This is mentioned in Nick Mason's book, so it can be cited from there. I don't know how to do it -- someone help!! Thanks... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.226.78.94 (talk) 18:52, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ambient Music Citation[edit]

Post it here and someone will put it up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.68.111.98 (talk) 04:09, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to apologise for the sloppiness in the information that I have added. I am new to this and unsure of protocol, as well as the proper formations to use. The information that I have added can be found in the book A Saucer Full Of Secrets: The Pink Floyd Oddessey. If someone could help me in as far as citing sources as well as better editing I would be much obliged. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mk5384 (talk • contribs) 00:31, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WSWDN <> Empty Spaces[edit]

Empty Spaces and What Shall We Do Now are actually two different songs, not two different versions of the same song. Roger Waters said in interviews that WSWDK is just a list of things to do, and you get the same idea from ES, or something to that effect. source: 2-part run-through of The Wall album on radio interview show Innerview.

Also note that the TWO different song lyrics are included in the original album, because the song was removed just before the album was released, but after the artwork was done. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dankitti (talk • contribs) 15:30, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:List of unreleased ABBA songs which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 19:45, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not unreleased anymore[edit]

Okay, this is just stupid. I deleted the released tracks, and they keep coming back. If something has been released, it is no longer unreleased. Now is it? The clue is kinda imbedded in the actual word. I deleted the released tracks, and provided an explanation, but of course they're reinstated. Ah well, I'll just let someone else do it then. I'll just sit back and wait, I don't know, a couple of years or so? Eventually they'll be deleted. After a lot of edit warring, obviously. --178.75.131.245 (talk) 21:52, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Moonhead"[edit]

This list is missing "Moonhead". Reliable source for its existence [1]. It's on YouTube. Can this piece be added to the list, please? --Viennese Waltz 10:27, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Moonhead was released on the Early Years box set back in 2016 ItsMichaelRay (talk) 16:16, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Spare Bricks" section is badly written[edit]

What is this trying to say? The "When the Tigers Broke Free" single released at this time claim the track comes from the planned album. What are the words "claim the track" doing there? Is this something someone (who?) has claimed?

This is just badly written: From 2004 onwards, Waters decided to incorporated the song [...]. He decided in 2004, not from 2004 onwards. Should it say "Waters decided to incorporate the song [...] from 2004 onwards, [...]"? JonathanWakely (talk) 12:07, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
