Fingal's Cave Podcast

A Podcast for all dedicated Pink Floyd fans
Follow Fingal's Cave for a fresh perspective on the music of Pink Floyd. Our contributors include Rosemary Breen (Syd Barrett's sister), leading researchers, musicians who have worked with the band, road crew, collectors, tapers and traders.

If you were to make a list of the musicians who made some of the most beloved recordings in rock music, the name Jerry Shirley will come up over and over again. In addition to his role as drummer in Humble Pie, he has worked closely with luminaries like B.B. King, John Entwistle, and of course, Syd Barrett. In this episode, he sits down with Phil Salathé to discuss his long and storied career, and to share stories from his work with Syd in the studio and live. We also investigate a few mysteries in the process, including an enigmatic Syd outtake that's stymied researchers for decades. You won't want to miss it!
