Our very best wishes for a happy birthday to best-selling author and lyricist for Pink Floyd and David Gilmour, Polly Samson. Here's Polly in the studio with David, just before Christmas.

An unusual venue for a notable  #PinkFloyd  concert - this boxing club in the English city of Norwich hosted a few bands in 1971, with Yes and Traffic also appearing. However, it also saw the Floyd's first live performance of The Return Of The Son Of Nothing - the precursor to Echoes. 

We remember Storm Thorgerson today; here he is with David Gilmour, Aubrey Powell and Richard Wright. Picture: Jill Furmanovsky. 

An interesting look at the young Pink Floyd in 1967, by Chris Jagger, brother of Mick: 

In 2001, Wouldn't You Miss Me: The Best Of Syd Barrett was released. It included Two Of A Kind from a BBC radio session, and from David Gilmour's own collection, Bob Dylan Blues.
