Thanks to the many hundreds of you who took the time to enter our competition to win one of three copies of the superb fifth edition of Storm Thorgerson's 'Mind Over Matter: The Images of Pink Floyd', which was recently published.
This new, fifth edition incorporates an additional 32 pages of material from campaigns, releases and re-issues created since 2007, when the previous edition appeared. Before his sad passing, Storm
revisited the work he created for these later works and albums and offered insights into the work that went into the creation of this legendary album art. Designers who worked with Storm have also contributed to this new
edition of Mind Over Matter. Amongst the new material is artwork from
the Oh By The Way box set, the rather wonderful Atom Heart Mother 40th
Anniversary 'Wire Cow' sculpture, the Why Pink Floyd? Campaign and the
Dark Side Of The Moon 40th Anniversary images and stickers.
For those who haven't seen previous editions, the book features the
images from Pink Floyd's album sleeves and promotional material designed
for the group. It features almost all Pink Floyd's iconic album covers,
posters, singles bags, a selection of band photos, booklet pages and
rough artwork that developed into iconic designs. As you'll see from our
review (which has a focus on the changes and additions from the
previous edition), the book is thoroughly
recommended!
At the foot of the review, we also gave the opportunity to win one of three copies. We've gone through the huge number of entries, most of which correctly answered our three questions, and the following winners were picked out the BD "hat": Kaitlynn Defelice, Los Angeles, California; Mike Greene, Wallingford, UK; Bob Follen, Todmorden, UK. Congratulations to these three, and better luck next time to everyone else who participated...
