Just published: “Reinventing Pink Floyd: From Syd Barrett to The Dark Side of the Moon”

Posted February 15, 2018 by Floydian Slip


Rowman & Littlefield has published “Reinventing Pink Floyd: From Syd Barrett to The Dark Side of the Moon” by Bill Kopp.

The title focuses on the transitional period of the band during the late-1960s and early-’70s following the departure of co-founder Syd Barrett and the group’s hugely successful album “The Dark Side of the Moon.”

Craig Bailey, producer/host of the syndicated Pink Floyd radio show “Floydian Slip,” is one of several sources interviewed by the author. Others include early Floyd manager Peter Jenner and a variety of notable musicians: Steve Howe, Yes; Davy O’List, The Nice; Robyn Hitchcock; and Floyd collaborators Ron Geesin and Willie Wilson.

Jerry Shirley, Humble Pie’s drummer who also appeared on Barrett’s post-Floyd recordings, wrote the book’s foreword.

Publishers Weekly wrote, “Kopp’s smart and well-researched history is a welcome addition to the Pink Floyd library.”

Kopp is a music journalist whose work has appeared in Record Collector, Prog, Shindig!, Billboard, Electronic Musician, Goldmine and others. He’s written liner note essays for 20 albums, including titles by Edgar Winter, Rick Wakeman, The Ventures, Dave Mason, and Iron Butterfly.

The hardcover edition goes for $35. Rowman & Littlefield will offer an ebook version soon for $33.
