| | STORM THORGERSON WORKING ON TWO PINK FLOYD RELATED NEW BOOKS |
 | | Storm Thorgerson is one of the exceptions in the music business, the exception that make up the rule. | | | Yesterday's Swedish Daily News had a large feature on Storm Thorgerson, who designed most of Pink Floyd's legendary album covers, and it revealed that he is currently hard at work, on two new books, to be released soon. | | | Its time for yet another Pink Floyd release, a lavishly designed book about "Dark Side Of The Moon", and the triangular theme from the album sleeve has to be varied in absurdum. |

| | STORM THORGERSON INTERVIEW - Pink Floyd's graphic designer |
| | In the same way I was saying that music is bigger, so if you play a CD, or vinyl, or if you listen to your iPod, with 4000 songs on it, you close your eyes and [the music is] as big as your head. | | | Storm: Well, the Meddle album was a different case - I think [the Meddle artwork] was their idea. | | | Set The Controls is another seminal song for the band, in my view, because it taught Roger that he could write. |

| | Storm recalls whimsically that he was told some fans cut the side of the album package with a razor blade so they could slide the vinyl out without harming the wrap, and thus to this day have never seen the photo of the burning man in their own package. | | | As Storm recalled the most emotional moment that added to the eeriness of the time was when the band was at ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS laying the backing vocals to SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND (“Syd’s song”). | | | Storm and "Po" got into the music video biz in the early days of MTV. |

| | He admits that his chosen methodology, to visually allude to either a musical mood, album title, theme or a lyric, has always mirrored Floyd's own, open-ended approach. | | | The latest, lavish Floyd conception is Shine On, a boxed set of eight CDs and 100-page book for which Thorgerson has written the text. | | | The design meeting "took about 3 seconds, in so much as the band cast their eyes over everything, looked at each other, said in unison, 'That One,' and left the room." |

| | Interestingly, Storm continues to listen to the albums and notes Meddle as the “most underrated and seminal album and was the turning point” | | | An engaging man still thoroughly occupied in carrying on with his trade, he’s back continuing his passion to create the best in album covers. | | | Whilst these images and more recent ones are so well known, the man behind them remains, like the band he’s worked with so often, somewhat unknown. |

| | Frozentoy - busy boy: Storm Thorgerson (*****) |
| | Storm is the maker of my favourite album cover Catherine Wheel - Chrome. | | | Storm may be old, but his artwork and concepts for the music industry is probably the strongest there is. Pink Floyd, Mars Volta, Muse, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Peter Gabriel, The Cranberries and a bunch of others have all gotten the touch from the wizard. | | | My deepest respect for the man who actually built the humungus scrap metal ball for the Anthrax Stomp cover. |
