Pink Floyd
A band named off a single sleeve note, from a 1962 Blind Boy Fuller record where Paul Oliver listed Pink Anderson and Floyd Council among Piedmont players who had never met each other. They began as the house band of the London underground with Syd Barrett writing, and lost him in the least dramatic way imaginable: David Gilmour joined as a fifth member, and one morning in January 1968 the others simply did not collect Barrett for a gig. What followed was a decade of building rooms out of sound, quadraphonic rigs and a co-ordinator that moved noise around a hall, films projected behind the stage, an inflatable pig that got loose over Battersea, and a wall built across the front of an arena and knocked down again. Then the fights: Wright pushed out during the record he was playing on, Waters in the High Court in 1986 trying to dissolve the thing, a settlement rather than a verdict, and two decades of the members giving irreconcilable accounts of the same events. This archive is built from what can actually be watched, which since 2020 has included the band posting their own concert films for free, and it covers the losses from the documented record rather than the legend.
A chronological documentary of 1,034 moments spanning 1900–2026 on Loreline.

Eras
- Stagecraft, The apparatus, which is genuinely distinctive and badly under-collected. Quadraphonic sound and the Azimuth Co-ordinator, the joystick that moved sound around a hall, now in a museum case. Mr. Screen, the circular projection screen. Lasers, the mirrorball that opened like a flower, the crashing aeroplane, the inflatables, and the wall itself, built across the front of the stage during the show and demolished at the end of it.
- Live, Performance, the largest part of this archive and the reason it exists in the form it does. Since April 2020 the band has been posting complete concert films free on its own channel, so what is here runs from a 1967 Granada broadcast and Belgian and French television in 1968, through Pompeii in 1971 with no audience at all, Earls Court, the Wall shows of 1980 and 1981 of which only thirty one performances were ever staged, Venice in 1989, the Pulse tour, and Live 8 in 2005, the last time all four were on a stage together.
- Songs, Individual tracks as objects rather than as a soundtrack: promo films, official videos, single releases, chart appearances and the occasional oddity. Note what is deliberately absent. Static-image audio uploads were excluded even where official, because a still photograph over a recording is not documentary footage, and unofficial re-uploads of songs were excluded because they are the class of thing that disappears.
- Interviews, Sixty years of the members and their collaborators talking, and the only place where the contradictions can be handled honestly. Waters and Gilmour give irreconcilable accounts of Wright's removal, of the 1986 High Court filing, and of every reunion question since, so both accounts are carried and attributed and neither is arbitrated here. Also the people usually left out of the story: engineers, producers, the sleeve designers, and Barrett's sister Rosemary Breen, whose account of his later life differs sharply from the one the documentaries tell.
- Studio, Where the records were actually made. Abbey Road, Britannia Row, the Astoria houseboat, Chateau d'Herouville. Sessions, control rooms, isolated tracks, and the engineers and producers who are usually a footnote: Alan Parsons, Chris Thomas, Bob Ezrin, James Guthrie. The making-of material for Dark Side and The Wall is unusually well documented, including the tape loops, the cash registers and the string of coins Nick Mason made by hand in 1972.
- Films, The band on screen. Live at Pompeii, filmed in October 1971 in an empty Roman amphitheatre, which is the film's defining condition. The Wall in 1982 with Gerald Scarfe's animation. The concert films, Delicate Sound of Thunder and Pulse. The soundtrack work for More, La Vallee and Zabriskie Point. Plus the documentaries, including Have You Got It Yet?, begun by Storm Thorgerson and finished after his death.
- Barrett, Roger Keith Barrett as a subject in his own right, handled from the documented record only. There is no publicly available diagnosis, and every one in circulation traces back to a bandmate or a biographer rather than to a medical record, so this archive presents the competing accounts and attributes them: Waters has said schizophrenia, Wright blamed acid, Gilmour has said it would have happened anyway, and his sister Rosemary Breen has said he neither suffered from mental illness nor received treatment in the decades she knew him. He went home to Cambridge, painted, gardened, used his given name Roger, and died on 7 July 2006.
- Places, The physical locations, and the facet that rescues the thin decades because buildings can be photographed when the band could not. Battersea Power Station and its preserved control room, Abbey Road, the Roundhouse, Alexandra Palace, the Cambridge streets Barrett came from and returned to, Ely, Saunton Sands, the Roman amphitheatre at Pompeii, and Earls Court.
- Artwork, Hipgnosis, Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey Powell, and Gerald Scarfe's drawings for The Wall. Note how this segment is built. The 2024 sale of the band's catalogue included name and likeness, so the sleeves themselves are not reproduced here, including where a freely licensed photograph happens to show one on a gallery wall. What is here instead is the material that is genuinely photographable: the locations the images were made at, the physical objects and props, and the designers themselves talking about the work.
- Apart, The members working outside the band, where it bears on the band. Waters performing The Wall live and the Us and Them tours, Gilmour's solo records and his return to the Pompeii amphitheatre in 2016 with an audience this time, Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets playing the pre-Dark Side material that the band itself stopped playing, Wright's Broken China and Zee, and Barrett's two solo albums.
- - Cambridgeshire High School for Boys, Hills Road. The Hills Road school, photographed around 1900, where Barrett, Roger Waters and David Gilmour were all pupils. All three grew up in Cambridge and knew each other well before London, which is why Gilmour's arrival in 1967 was not the recruitment of a stranger.
- - Building the Astoria, 1911. Workmen building the superstructure of the houseboat Astoria on Tagg's Island in 1911. Seventy-five years later it became David Gilmour's recording studio.
- - The Empire Pool, Wembley, 1938. The hall on the opening day of the 1938 European Aquatics Championships, still a swimming pool. Pink Floyd played it as a concert hall thirty-six years later.
