Wow, this is something I've never seen before - and Pink Floyd is my favorite band. And considering that I have thousands of records and cds by lots of different bands, that really is saying something.
This is a different promo version of "Paint Box" - with great mimed Rick Wright vocals, back when Pink Floyd were really good looking and weren't in their super-hippy Ummagumma imagery! Back when both their music and looks were good, before just their music was really good

BTW this is the version that I'd previously seen and known...

Mike,
Many thanks for posting them 
I've: seen Floyd over 25 times; booked them twice; investigated a multi-media project with Dave Gilmour; and my fiancé and I are seeing the Oz tribute band next month - they are nothing like the originals but he's never seen either version so I hope I can get him to appreciate further my psychedelic passion!

Oh wow, that's so cool! When did you first see PF? Did you see the Syd Barrett tribute last year?
This is showing my youth but I first saw them in 1987 and I unfortunately never saw Reg. Maybe I should have seen Reg in '00 but I was feeling skint that year so missed out; I made up for it in '01 by seeing New Order twice, once nearby and the other time in Canada Ooooh boy that was an expensive week.

I'm probably a bit older than you! and I first fell in love with PF when I heard 'See Emily Play' in 1967 when I sneaked out of school to visit a banned coffee-bar
I live in Cambridge, PF's home town and, although I knew Roger (Syd) was ill, I cried my eyes out when he died  - we stood outside his house like a load of numbed zombies and remembered him.
The tribute was very well done and he seems to have been looked after as best as possible considering the damage to his brain
Which are your current fave bands?

ever heard comfortably numb by a band called Charge? can download from Limewire and others, I honestly thought a later pink floyd version. Was also at the party at nurses home in 1968 when the fire alarms set off and the " lunatics were really on the grass" as all patients led out onto the lawns

Ooooh wow, that is just so cool! I've always loved See Emily Play, but to hear it back in 1967, that's just fab. Of all the stuff that I still think sounds great, there are very few songs that I heard the year they were released.
Pink Floyd (followed by New Order) remains my favorite band - I don't think I have any current bands of interest, because I never choose to listen to anything new! Only current band releasing stuff I'm still buying seems to be Saint Etienne but I prefer their mid'90s era the most!
