Our hearty congratulations to Jon Carin, who today celebrates his birthday (Sunday, October 21st).

The talented multi-instrumentalist has been a key part of the Pink Floyd operation since 1985, and more recently toured with David Gilmour (on his On An Island tour), and Roger Waters (on his Dark Side Of The Moon tour). He was recently a key member of Roger's band for the mammoth Wall tour, which saw the show thrill audiences in North and South America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, with Jon playing keyboards and more during the show. Rumour has it that the tour will resume next year in Europe, so Jon might well be busy again playing this material.

For those who might have missed it, or want another chance to read it, check out our extensive and exclusive interview with Jon from August 2007. It's full of fascinating insights into his life and work with various top musicians, including (of course) David, Roger, and Pink Floyd!

Have a great day, Jon - and many happy returns!
