Imitation, being the most sincere form of flattery, Pink Floyd should be proud as this "tribute" is nothing if not most impressive form of appreciation imaginable.
There are but a handful of great acts whose musical catalogs deserve the tribute treatment. Pink Floyd's music was always their legacy as not one of the members were "pop stars". This, more or less, when combined with their seemingly endless popularity and lack of interest in continuing on as a band creates a possibility. That possibility is taken to the highest level of professionalism by The Australian Pink Floyd Show. It is truly like hearing actual Pink Floyd live if not seeing them in the flesh. Does it matter that it's not the real members of Pink Floyd? Not one bit, the music speaks for itself and the members of TSPFS do it righteous justice. Now, even the stage and light show is on par with the P.U.L.S.E. era Pink Floyd spectacle. TAPFS has been evolving for onwards of ten years and viewing the Royal Alber Hall Show here reveals it has reached a sophistication that even Pink Floyd could not surpass. If you are a fan it's a must, in fact I'll go further and say for whatever reason it seems even more accessible as presented here. Perhaps, like me, you have read David Gilmour has attended and endorsed it. I can understand why and can only say it is not to be missed.
