We will be running a number of extracts from the Remember That Night DVD, and can now premiere David's new EPK (Electronic Press Kit).
Produced for media broadcast around the world, it features a brand-new interview with David and, of course, many extracts of performances from the Albert Hall, including On An Island, Then I Close My Eyes, Smile, and Wish You Were Here.
David is viewed in his home studio, talking with candour about his feelings for the 2006 tour from a current perspective. All the usual suspects are included, from lighting genius Marc Brickman to special guests Crosby & Nash, Robert Wyatt, and the enigma that is David Bowie.

The latest in our series of extracts from the concert DVD is the full version of Fat Old Sun.

A longtime favourite of many Floyd fans, Fat Old Sun is one of David's songs from the Atom Heart Mother album, an opus that was Pink Floyd's first UK Number One album. It has since been eclipsed in the critical view by subsequent albums such as Meddle and the twin peaks of The Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here, but it can bear a re-evaluation.
You can choose between the vinyl side-long title track or separate vocal vignettes penned by band individuals, including the charming Summer '68 by Richard Wright, and David's Fat Old Sun, plus of course the adventure in stereo sound effects that is Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast.
David's live version ups the ante from the original with a blistering Telecaster workout to bring the song to a close, but in the vocal sections reveals he has lost nothing of his affecting vocal abilities in the intervening years.
