@Loïc... Thanks. The PayPal link does work. I just tested it. Not sure what other link you are referring to.

Hi Doc from Philly!

Thank you very much for this pre'mmersion! Great job as usual. I tried to make a donation but the Paypal link doesn't work. Nor does the URL you provided on another comment... Any idea?

Speaking of immersion, do you (and everyone else here) think we could set up some kind of petition with Pink Floyd management or EMI to request Immersion sets (or at least Experience sets) of other albums? Especially the early albums such as Piper or Atom Heart Mother or the bits and pieces that became Echoes... Or even that "satellite" album that was sorta kinda announced as a companion to The Division Bell? At the Dark Side reception in NYC a few weeks ago Nick Mason mentioned that there might be a chance that some more sets see the light of day... Maybe we could make our voice heard to make that happen?

Thanks again!

Thank-you Doctor, Dark Side of the Moon has always been my favorite Pink Floyd. After listening to this podcast I have a strange urge to twist one up and see if I can find my old copy of "Dark Side of Oz".

@Masermn1284... The Official 74 Wembley gig is sourced from Floyd's own archives and compiled from the all the Wembley gigs (14th thru the 17th Nov). The same method was/is used on all of Floyd's officially released live albums.

There has been discussion on some Floyd sites about the Wembley concert in the recent immersion set. No where is it mentioned a specific date or if this is the soundboard or BBC broadcast. It seems to me under scrutiny that it is a compilation of several of the dates. Could you enlighten us please Doctor?

Hey Doc,
in honor of the Occupy Wall Street protests, how about a show featuring Floyd's/Waters' most socially conscious works?

And thanks for the cool podcast!

Hi Doc, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all the work that did on the Wall shows. I have put on 2000 miles on my bike this summer and spent much of the time listening to the various shows. I saw two and with my memories and your music I was able to vicariously enjoy so many great shows. Thanks for all your work in bringing all that great music to us. Now on to the DARK SIDE OF THE MOON...

I have always enjoyed your work and certainly anything DSOTM is right up there to be listened to. The Immersion Set is an amazing set as well!

Great show as always. Have you done a podcast with the whole '72 Rainbow show? If not do you have plans to. The quality of the "travel Seqeunce is greaton this past show.. Love to hear the whole show. Keep up the good work. Ive been waiting 20 years for somebody to clean up all these shows Ive had for years.

Another great pod Doc , have you ever thought about a satelite radio channel, I just rented a car w/one and was bummed because there was no Floyd ,you would make a great addition to sirrus ( or whatever it's called). Thanks again for your usual magic.

Excellent podcast.
With the increasingly brilliant boots and earlier podcast of the wembley gig I'm amazed that they can better it. Can't wait. cheers for everything. ps I'm in.

Doctor I'm from Mexico City, I love your podcast, actually you inpired me to do my very own podcast to pay tribute to the other band I love, Queen.
Please continue with this great job
the best reason to continue is that it's a labor of love (sorry from my english, this is not my mother language)

In the early 70's I argued with my mates as to whether to see the floyd or led zep - being in school we could not afford both. Many said no point in seeing PF as it will be just like the album. Now at last I can win the argument !

Nice work Doc! Love the things you give all your time for so we can all enjoy.... keep up the awesome work, Cheers

To quote Roger Waters, "Thank you. ... Well, thank you! ... WELL, THANK YOU!!!!"

But seriously Doc, thank you. Your podcasts are always a bright spot in my month. That Floyd Management is, ipso facto, supporting you is fantastic validation for what I've already known for over four years now, listening to the podcasts.

@AL... thanks! nothing was sourced from the tree set.

This podcast is one of the sites that I check on a daily basis, just to see if there's any "surprises" for me to listen to.

It really gives me something to consistently look forward to in a crazy world.

Thanks for everything that you do.

Comment #2: got to the end now, and extended Breathe is terrific, in a nice mix, thanks Matt: a very good companion. Is some of this from the 'Tree' too, the quality is nice - AL
posted by: AL on 2011-09-23 11:35:23
Thank you Doc. I am once more most grateful to you and your endlessly renewed inspiration. We probably all feel the same, but I have the impression that each single track was especially written for me.

PS. To the attention of your French speaking fans (and to the others): from 9 to 12 (CET) on next Sunday, there will be a PF dedicated radio programme on Classic21 (http://www.rtbf.be/classic21/)

I agree with David's opening, the quality of the bootlegs - in the day, when we were growing up, swapping them at school - was disappointing. However the more recent efforts, by you Matt and the Beasts etc, mean the quality is great - and even if not tip-top adds a welcome variety in the catalogue. Let's not forget the Floyd were a live performance band first and foremost, and I appreciate the live stuff now to complement the slick studio productions. OK, so I'm in - Liked the FB page - and now waiting expectantly, like a child at Christmas, for my present. If it's from Santa Matt so much the better, but I'll have my hands on it one way or another before too long - AL

Great stuff Doc! I'l always comment on the ones I download and listen too and like. Keep up the good work and remember a lot of us can help if you get tired out with it for a while. I would imagine the next year will be very busy for you! Love you and your passion!
posted by: Barry BURBs on 2011-09-23 06:17:22
Awesome stuff, buddy! Just what the doctor ordered - quite literally in fact! Gonna be playing this one a bunch. Thanks for this show, the ones before and for keeping the whole thing going. Cheers!!

Just wrapping up my first listen of this podcast. I don't think there's ever been one I didn't thoroughly enjoy..and this is no exception. DSOTM is hard to beat. Great cast, Doc.

No. Thank you! Cant wait to get my hands on this set !!
