Pink Floyd Scrub Post-Waters LPs From Services in Russia, Belarus.

OK, I am seriously confused here. Am I reading it right? Pink Flyod is taking a stand by removing SOME of their music, but not all of it? If true, how very brave and daring of them to NOT remove their catalog Russia and Belarus. I guess SOME of the Russian invasion is OK and some of it is not.

You mean that Waters has taken a few moments away from his long-standing hate-boner for t3h j0000z to briefly care about something else? :P

I hope they can still play, “The Dogs of War” from their, “Delicate Sound of Thunder” album.

> OK, I am seriously confused here.

The Pink Floyd catalogue has two parts, chronologically and legally: The earlier albums produced with Roger Waters, and the later albums without him.

As I understand it, the band does not have control over the former albums, due to the legal battle(s) that occurred post-Waters leaving the band. So they pull the ones that they can (the later ones).

They’re just frittering and wasting time in an offhand way.

Ah, roger that. I'm tracking now. Still not a big fan of most of PF's music. I'll refrain from mocking them over this; there's so much more out there that this ammo is not needed. Thanks

To be fair, another FReeper pointed out that there is an issue with ownership of the catalogue, and that Pink Floyd doesn’t own the whole thing.

Pink Floyd doesn’t own the whole thing.

But still gets part of the take.

I guess that makes it easy for them to show how much they care, while still having money to live their lifestyles.

Are they somebody? Does anyone care what they think or do?
