Description
PINK FLOYD From their early beginnings in the affluent University City of Cambridge, Pink Floyd rose, Phoenix-like, on a number of occasions to create music that was both challenging and unique. While London was swinging in the sixties, Pink Floyd went psychedelic, producing sound and light shows that captured the mood of the time. The story of Pink Floyd is one of the most fascinating in the history of Rock, and On the Rock Trail will leave no stone unturned in the search for the quiet men behind one of the Rock industry's biggest and most distinctive sounds. 55 MIN. • COLOR

 Horrible July 30, 2006

This is the worst piece of Floyd-related garbage I have ever seen. There is some weird Floyd-like music the whole way through in styles that don't even match the style of the Floyd-era that is being talked about. No live footage whatsoever, only a few bad quality stills. Zero Pink Floyd music. Information in the narrative is either widely known or completely wrong (or at least unsubstantiated). Nothing but a money-grab.
Worst documentary I've ever seen, period. August 20, 2006

This is the worst documentary about a band I've ever seen. They have no rights to any music, a handful of still photographs and drawings of band members, and a terrible host. The host runs around the field of Knebworth humming songs in his recollection of the concert he saw there. He barely mentions the names of songs, as if he's afraid to do so. No live footage. No band interviews (or interviews of anybody else for that matter!)
Liam Dale (the host) even has his own little music video at the end where they are playing music that is not Pink Floyd.
Let me be clear, if you value your time, save part of your life by not watching this thing.

I expected to see interviews and concert footage of the band, kinda like the "Making of Dark Side Of The Moon" DVD. Instead, all we get is interviews with critics and people who call themselves "experts" on Pink Floyd.
There's no concert footage, instead all we get is a few lame and bad quality stills. They don't even use the band's real music, they just use versions of songs from cover bands.
If it says UNAUTHORIZED, do NOT buy it.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
 Great Documentary at a wonderful price! July 11, 2006

Fantastic documentary about one of the great bands of all time. It's a nice complement to the other documentaries in the "On The Rock Trail" series. It's worth it to have all 6! It's fun to listen to the narrator as he takes you back in time to when the band first forms to when they hit it big. No, there isn't any music from the band or interviews of any members, which is stated on the packaging...that's ok though. Hard to beat at this price!
