Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason: It just immediately takes you back

Pink Floyd drummer, Nick mason, has recently revealed in an interview that the recently-released ‘Experience’ and ‘Immersion’ box sets have brought back a lot of memories.

In a recent interview, the Pink Floyd drummer revealed about the phenomenal shows the band performed for ‘The Wall’.

“It’s sort of nostalgia in a way, because you forget how crude the initial idea might be, but how the initial idea is absolutely carried on through the entire process … It’s a skeleton that turns into a human figure. All you need is one pass to hear it,
and you go, ‘Oh yeah, I remember that.’ It just immediately takes you back … to the occasion you were working on it, a particular moment in the studio or whatever”, Mason stated.

The drummer believes that the demos will certainly shed new insight to the album that has remained one of the most discussed albums since its release in 1979.

“Watching something being constructed, whether you’re passing a building site or whether you’re watching an artist at work, is fascinating, and I think that’s the enjoyment. Sometimes you can hear elements in the original demo that you wouldn’t recognize
unless you’d had them pointed out, so that you do get greater depth because you’ve seen the foundations of the piece”,  Mason concluded.

Pink Floyd (1965 – 1996) were the most successful band that acclaimed worldwide success with their progressive and psychedelic rock music.
