As we reported back on February 9th, specialist book publishers, Genesis Publications, will be collaborating with Nick Mason, producing a very special limited edition of his fantastic book, "Inside Out: A Personal History Of Pink Floyd".

Genesis are to take 500 of the First Edition of the book, which will be re-bound in leather, signed by Nick and included in a 'box of delights' designed and assembled by Storm Thorgerson, who will also sign this unique limited edition box set. Only 500 sets will be available and these will be offered initially solely to existing Genesis customers.

Yesterday, they provided us with an update on progress...

"Genesis has given the go-ahead to Storm Thorgerson to design the new cover for the leather bound book which will be part of this highly collectible boxed set. The photographic shoot for the cover image will take place at a London location next week". Photographs from this session will appear on the Genesis Publications website soon.

They also report that at the 60th birthday party for legendary guitarist Eric Clapton, Genesis's Brian Roylance bumped into Nick on the way to the toilet, where Nick said, "You're just making sure I write my two thousand words for the limited edition aren't you?"

We are hoping to have more information on this package soon - and indeed, will be placing our order as soon as we can! A review of the contents will naturally follow...

If you are unable to get hold of a copy of this exclusive edition, or your budget won't stretch to the price of it (although we don't know how much it will be yet) the normal edition is currently available to order, of course, through our special Amazon links: USA, Canada, UK/Elsewhere, Germany, or France (the French AND English language versions are available from them).
