AFG Announces : Albert Magoolie : Remembers More – The 2021 Publication !!!

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on 16/12/2021 by Col T17/12/2021

Throughout the year the team here at A Fleeting Glimpse have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to modernize the structure and content of the site to make it more interactive for all you loyal visitors from across the globe.

To celebrate the launch of our recently revamped Fun & Fantasy section we managed to track down the world-famous Albert Magoolie.

Those of you who visited us back in the start of the millennium will re-call the fantastic *memories that Albert shared with us in a publication entitled Albert Magoolie Remembers.

Originally published in 2004 Albert Magoolie Remembers took the internet by storm with his shocking tales and behind the scene’s experiences with Pink Floyd and all five of its classic members.

After 17 years and only appearing briefly to tell us about his new music room, We managed to track him down and he agreed to fill us in on what has happening in his world for what is nearing the last 2 decades…

In a brand new publication for 2021 we can proudly announce that Albert Magoolie : Remembers More is now available for your viewing pleasure.

Showcased in the same form as his original tales this brand new publication spans over 25 chapters, taking off from where the last tale ended all those years ago, Just as hilarious and crazy as his original tales Albert Magoolie Remembers More goes deeper into areas that Albert had not shared before.

Happy Birthday Phil Taylor !!

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on 14/12/2021 by Col T16/12/2021

Phil Taylor joined the Floyd arsenal in 1974 as a guitar and back line technician, and has since become a key component in helping create the world’s most “definitive” guitar tone, as well as managing the legendary “Black Strat,” about which he has written a book, in addition to maintaining the Floyd warehouse, running the Astoria houseboat on a daily basis, and being the creator of 5 out of 6 separate studios.

From all of us at A Fleeting Glimpse, we wish to send our best wishes to Phil Taylor on his birthday.

Phil has since been in touch since this publication with a note of thanks.
“Thank you very much…. big one this time – my 70th….” – Phil Taylor

AFG : A Celebration Of Radio K.A.O.S : Part 4 : More Unseen Photos From Arie Crown Theatre Chicago 1987

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on 21/11/2021 by Col T21/11/2021

Radio K.A.O.S. is the second solo studio album by English rock musician and former Pink Floyd member Roger Waters. Released on 15 June 1987 in the United Kingdom and June 16 in the United States, it was Waters’ first solo album after his formal split from Pink Floyd in 1985. Like his previous and future studio albums and many works of his during his time with Pink Floyd, the album is a concept album based on many key topical subjects of the late 1980s, including monetarism and its effect on citizens, popular culture of the time, and the events and consequences of the Cold War. It also makes criticisms of Margaret Thatcher’s government, much like Pink Floyd’s The Final Cut, another album conceived by Waters.

The album follows Billy, a mentally and physically disabled man from Wales, forced to live with his uncle David in Los Angeles after his brother Benny was sent to prison after an act intended to support striking coal miners results in the death of a taxi driver, following his dismissal from his mining job due to “market forces.” The album explores Billy’s mind and view on the world through an on-air conversation between him and Jim, a disc jockey at a local fictitious radio station named Radio KAOS.

Earlier this year we launched a celebration series in which we spoke to band members of the recording and touring band, including showcasing never before seen photography from the supporting tour, along with a few surprises thrown in.

We did not intend to add this installment but have been clearing the vaults and have found some content that wasnt included in our previous postings back in August.

In this this instalment we are showcasing a further collection of never before seen photographs from Roger Waters Radio KAOS tour live on November 14th 1987 at Arie Crown Theatre Chicago, Illinois, USA.
