Since then, the band has released 15 studio albums and sold over 250 million records. Their eighth album, \u003ci\u003e Dark Side of the Moon\u003c\/i\u003e, is the highest-selling British album in the world (and fourth overall), at over 40 million copies. Their last album, \u003ci\u003eThe Endless River \u003c\/i\u003e(2014), has sold over ten million copies, and founder members Roger Waters and Nick Mason still (separately) tour the world. Indeed, they hardly need an introduction: their profile remains very high, with millions of fans around the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eEverything Under the Sun\u003c\/i\u003e will be a high-level, fully sourced and footnoted analysis of the music of Pink Floyd (akin to \u003ci\u003eRevolution in the Head\u003c\/i\u003e by Ian Macdonald about The Beatles), and the first serious survey of the group's work and achievements. As such, it will also be a cultural history of the UK, seen through the prism of the band. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e While there is a plethora of books about Pink Floyd and by Pink Floyd former members, none are truly comprehensive or do what this book seeks to do. Some give bald introductions to the songs with analysis, others give stories and anecdotes, and potted histories. But \u003ci\u003eEverything Under the Sun\u003c\/i\u003e will be the definitive book. In addition to a song-by-song analysis, it will include exclusive band interviews, a full chronology and gig guide, and a full bootleg guide. It will be the go-to book for any Pink Floyd fan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803995359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416","brand":"Mike Cormack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44700372861109,"sku":"9781803995359","price":39.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_04ed5650-422e-46a0-ad57-e0140d5cd90b.jpg?v=1728396877","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/everything-under-the-sun-the-complete-guide-to-pink-floyd-9781803995359","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
