Pink Floyd podcast series coming Nov. 25

Posted November 22, 2019 by Floydian Slip

BBC Radio 6 Music’s Matt Everitt will speak with David Gilmour during a four-part podcast series to promote “The Later Years” box-set coming in December.

“The Lost Art of Conversation” will premiere Monday, Nov. 25, on all podcast platforms. Remaining episodes will appear the three following Mondays.

Each episode will focus on a particular theme:

The studio
The band’s return to jamming in the recording studio and embracing new technology when faced with new advances in synthesizers and other instruments.

Artwork
Gilmour explains his ideas for the band’s artwork including how his sketch of a single, empty bed was transformed by Storm Thorgerson into the image of 500 beds for the cover of 1987’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason.”

Live performances
How the band prepared for the prospect of an upcoming tour, and the enormous pressure facing them while rehearsing in a massive aircraft hangar in Toronto.

Unreleased new material from the box-set
Gilmour talks about the loads of new and rare material included in “The Later Years.” His memories are jogged by watching footage of the band flying over Miami Beach, watching swimmers surrounded by sharks.

The band is billing this podcast as Gilmour’s only interview surrounding the launch of the 16-disc box that focuses on post-Roger Waters era Floyd.

Read more about “The Later Years,” which is coming Dec. 13.

“Peter was my greatest mentor and it gives me such joy to pay tribute to his incredible talent. I am honored to be sharing the stage with some of the many artists Peter has inspired over the years and who share my great respect for this remarkable musician.”

The show takes place Tuesday, Feb. 25. Ticket pre-sale started Nov. 13 with general sale starting two days later. The show has sold-out.
