    Fingal's Cave SPECIAL - Andreas Kraska on his book PINK FLOYD - The RECORDS (German with subtitles)

    Hello everybody!

    So that the podcast's summer break doesn't get too long, we have a nice special for you!

    We welcome Andreas Kraska, the author of the book ‘Pink Floyd - The Records’, also known as the ultimate ‘bootleg bible’.

    Even though this episode was recorded in German, it should definitely be watched by all Pink Floyd enthusiasts. Don't hesitate, because hand-created subtitles should give you, the English-speaking fans, also a good understanding.

    In this episode we have a visit from Andreas Kraska, who is not only the author of the famous and banned "Bootleg Bible" called ‘PINK FLOYD - The Records’, but also owned one of the largest Pink Floyd collections in Europe (if not worldwide).

    For the first time, Andreas talks openly about his involvement in various bootlegs, his legal problems with the publication of his book and how he discussed possible legal fees with David Gilmour and Nick Mason in a hotel lobby in germany.

    Finally, Andreas tells us about his other hobby, the collecting of Tefifon equipment, an exciting invention from the 50s that unfortunately never became a success.

    Andreas has been deeply rooted in the Pink Floyd scene for over 40 years, was well connected to all the big names in the Pink Floyd community and it was a pure joy to talk to him.

    Due to the fact that both Andreas Kraska and the host Nils Zehnpfennig are from Germany, we decided to conduct the interview in German with English subtitles.

    Chapters:
    00:00:00 Intro & welcome Andreas
    00:01:20 First contact with Pink Floyd
    00:03:31 Animals Tour 1977 and meeting them at the hotel in 1988

    00:22:11 How the idea for the book came about...
    00:25:01 And how a drug related bust almost killed it
    00:28:24 The famous cover picture (and the unknown bootleg)
    00:30:57 Who helped you on the way?
    00:36:58 Rolf Ossenberg
    00:39:49 The biggest collection!?
    00:44:32 The Tefifon
    00:52:01 Haptic experience vs streaming

        Fixed, but Nils posted the original, so this is kinda unnecessary now.

      The video in original link should contain rendered subtitles!

        Thanks! Looking forward to this. The problem with reading the subtitles with the video is the speed. More convenient, at least for me, to have the transcript as one document or post to read at my own pace.

            Nils, vielen Dank für das Interview! Somit kramte ich wieder mal das Buch hervor und stöberte ein wenig. Auf Seite 46 steht, dass CBS für das 8-track tape ein falsches Band bekam, bei dem POTW 1 von einem 12 seitigen Gitarrenstück von Gilmour unterlegt wurde. Meint er damit das Verbindungsstück zu Teil 2, das wird ja eigentlich immer Snowy White zugeschrieben.
