*** Résumé en anglais seulement ***Hot on the heels of the CD release, the long-awaited DVD of Pink Floyd - London 1966-67 has now arrived (August 2005).Attempts were made a couple of years ago to release this on DVD, but there were problems that stopped this happening.It's great news that these problems have now been overcome; it is bound to be a popular release.It is a fascinating look at the early days of the band, featuring the classic line-up of Syd Barrett, Nick Mason, Roger Waters and Rick Wright, shown in action in the studio and live in concert, at the UFO club.Additional footage captures swinging sixties London and interviews with Mick Jagger, Michael Caine, David Hockney and Julie Christie.The DVD features full length and extremely rare performances from the band’s recording session at the now defunct Sound Techniques Studio, London, on the 11th and 12th of January 1967 for Peter Whitehead's Tonight Let's Make Love In London film.It also has footage of the now legendary 14 Hour Technicolor Dream Extravaganza gig in April 1967 at Alexandra Palace.The footage from Alexandra Palace includes Yoko Ono's performance art (with a model having her clothes cut off with a pair of scissors!) and a Sgt. Pepper-era John Lennon taking in the festivities. (John and Yoko had not then met.)The Floyd's performance at this show is not included, though.
