(Need better scans and box art info)


Web Description:


Critically and commercially, 1979's double LP The Wall represents Pink Floyd's last esteemed effort. Largely the brainchild of Floyd demigod Roger Waters, this ambitious rock opera concerns itself with the emotional walls that individuals build around themselves to guard against vulnerability, a theme illustrated by the sad life of the opera's central character, a musician called Pink. The effort went multi-platinum, scored a huge transatlantic single for the band ("Another Brick in the Wall,") and led to a notorious stage show and an Alan Parker-directed feature, Pink Floyd: The Wall, in 1982. The documentary Rock Milestones: Pink Floyd - The Wall provides a detailed critical examination of the now-legendary original album, from the inside out. It features interviews and reminiscences with former band members and rock critics, and performances of Wall songs by the band Mostly Autumn, including the numbers "Comfortably Numb," "In the Flesh," "Don't Leave Me Now," "Mother," and "Another Brick in the Wall." ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Rock Milestones Pink Floyd - Ummagumma (DVD)




Title: Rock Milestones - Ummagumma
Content Type: Documentary
Release Date: 2007
Age Rating: Exempt
Runtime: 52mins
Media Type: DVD All Region 0 PAL
Media Type: DVD All Region 0 NTSC
UPC: 823880021633
ASIN:  B000IJ7ML8

DISC ID: 042409A8-F0DBB56C

(c) 2005 Edge Hill Publishing






Back Of Box Description:

Ummagumma is a transitional album marking the end of the space rock/pastoral phase of Pink Floyd before the band moved on to the epic soundscapes of Atom Heart Mother and Meddle.  The title of the album is pronounced by the band "ooma-gooma" by the band, and it is not just pronunciation which presents difficulties in approaching this curious album.  Ummagumma still today splits the world of Floyd supporters into those who love the work and those who feel that much of it is frankly unlistenable?

In this penetrating independent review narrated by Bob Harris, we hear the views of the band in retrospect contrasted with the views of the album's Executive Producer, Norman Smith.  The film draws on extensive rare footage of Pink Floyd in performance of material from Ummagumma to produce the most frank, comprehensive and forthright review of a landmark in rock history.

Features Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, Cymbeline, Careful With That Axe, Grantchester Meadows and more

Back Of Box Description:

Wish You Were Here was released in September 1975 as the follow up to Dark Side Of The Moon. a pretty hard act to follow, but in many respects this amazing new album outshone its illustrious predecessor. Shine On You Crazy Diamond with its majestic introduction is arguably the finest recording in the entire Pink Floyd career. On this flawless album every track pulls its weight and the title track Wish You Were Here, which was revived for live 8, has gone on to achieve classic status.
This is the long awaited critical review of the album featuring rare live performances by Pink Floyd alongside rare archive interviews with the band. Also featured are the views of a leading team of critics, working musicians and musicologists. The DVD features highlights from Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Wish You Were Here, A Saucerful Of Secrets, Great Gig in The Sky, Money and more.

Back Of Box Description:

The Interview Sessions have been carefully compiled from rare and private footage of many collectors world wide. The vast majority is of a high quality including many unseen and historically important decisions that affected a bands career and direction, both musically and of a personal nature.

So as a collector please allow for this. We do however assure you that every modern day technique has been used in ensuring high quality viewing on the latest equipment, whilst maintaining the natural atmosphere and warmth of the original tapes.

 

My Notes:

This is one of the best "cheap" documentary's that's been made, It features a lot of footage and pictures along with interviews with the actual band as well as the critics (unlike many of the dvd's today that just interview people who write for magazines or work in studios) It talks about syd and the final break up, gilmour also kinda shows a little sadness that rogers gone. All in all for its time & its price this was a great video.
It was on sale in "Music Zone" in the uk and was bought on the 22nd of February 2000
for £5.99.  If anyone recognizes the screen shots and can pinpoint if theirs been an official dvd release of this.. please post a link in the comments below ;)
