Title: Mike Portnoy slams new Pink Floyd album as 'disrespectful'
Post by ProgMaster on 8th May, 2015 at 10:44pm
Another interesting read - former Dream Theater drummer, Mike Portnoy has lambasted the new release by Pink Floyd, "The Endless River".

"He says: “What's this about a new Pink Floyd album? Last I checked, Waters is no longer in the band and Wright and Barrett are dead. If these are leftovers from The Division Bell sessions, then just put them on a The Division Bell special-edition release.

"It's disrespectful to Roger and everything he built for all those years. Just do a solo album, Dave. In my opinion, the Pink Floyd heyday was Atom Heart Mother through The Wall, and those were mainly driven by Roger – conceptually, musically, everything.
"

Well if he's such a big "Roger" fan he will be glad to hear that his much underated album "Amused To Death" is to be reissued / remastered in July. Read it here
