Pink Floyd es uno de los más grandes grupos pop de todos los tiempos. Sin embargo, detrás de las escenografías, de los juegos de luces y del inspirado aire psicodélico y de hipnosis que recorre sus álbumes, los miembros de la banda siempre han permanecido en la sombra. La odisea de Pink Floyd es la única biografía exhaustiva de un grupo que siempre ha protegido ferozmente su intimidad. El libro que arroja luz sobre las historias personales que se ocultan tras el espectacular éxito show more del grupo. show less
There are probably better and more complete Beatles biographies by now, but at the time this came out, it was a very enjoyable and well illustrated introduction to the works of the Fab Four, and it should undoubtedly please most readers today, as well. The coverage is evenhanded and gives credit where credit is due.
I really enjoyed this book. It really brings to life the early days of the band, and their interactions with other important figures and events.
Excellent survey of British rock'n'roll and its impact on America in the 60s. Lots of great photos as well.
