Prog 80 is on sale today, featuring Pink Floyd on the cover. With David Gilmour about to release his new Live At Pompeii film, which features his 2016 return to the celebrated ancient site, we thought it was the ideal time to look at Pink Floyd’s own film from 1971. We speak to director Adrian Maben to get the inside story of Pink Floyd at Pompeii, plus we have an exclusive interview with David Gilmour about his return, the new film and his future musical plans. 17 pages of Floyd and Gilmour for your delectation…
