Saucerful of Secrets is the first in-depth biography of this
very private group. At the heart of the saga is Syd Barrett, the
group’s brilliant founder, whose public decline into shattered
incoherence–attributable in part to his marathon use of LSD–is
one of the tragedies of rock history. The making of Dark Side of
the Moon and Floyd’s other great albums is recounted in detail, as
are the mounting of “The Wall”? ? and the creation of the flying
pigs, crashing? ? planes, “Mr. Screen” and the other elements of
their spectacular stage shows. The book also explores the many
battles between bass player/song writer Roger Waters and the rest
of the group, leading up to Water’s acrimonious departure for a
solo? ? career in 1984 and his unsuccessful attempt to disolve the
group he had left behind.
Saucerful of Secrets is an electrifying account of this
ground-breaking, mind-bending group, covering every period of their
career from? ? earliest days to latest recordings. It is full of? ?
revealing information that will be treasured by all who love Pink
Floyd’s music.
