    Oh, such innocence… soon to be altering the world of music by way of altering minds, but they certainly did start out innocently enough.

    Our first show covering the history of Pink Floyd focuses on their early lives, most of it before they became recording stars and psychedelic heroes of the London underground.

    At first, Pink Floyd were a somewhat mediocre British blues band – like just about every other band in the UK at that point in time – but they started to diverge when they discovered how they could combine live music with psychedelic influences. Most beginnings are fairly modest, but hold on world, because things are gonna change quickly.
