About the Pink Floyd HyperBase

Welcome to a hobby project that grew a little out of proportions several years ago. The site is created and maintained by Jacob Crawfurd, Floyd-fan, mini-librarian, photographer and owner of Crawfurd Media.

The original material for the Pink Floyd HyperBase was researched and compiled from 1988 - 1994. It was first used as an internal demo-project for an interactive CD-ROM. Some of the chapters were later converted into this website when I made my first few steps figuring out how to make web sites in the early days of the World Wide Web. The HyperBase has been online since November 1997. The site consists of more than 250 html-pages and was frequently updated for a period when it was one of the main sources for Pink Floyd information. It had approximately 2500 visitors every day.

In February 2001 the site was moved to its own domain at pinkfloydhyperbase.dk. The HyperBase also got a new look and a major content update. In 2020 it was time for a slight redesign again, a few updates that I had missed, and finally a technical update to mobile-friendly HTML5.

Please inform me if you find something on this site that is wrong, violates copyright laws or should be removed for any other reason. I will look at it, but can't promise that I will have time to reply.

The complete Pink Floyd discography

I have tried to make this a complete collection with references to ALL that has been created and released by Pink Floyd and it's members. The information should be complete with credits of guest musicians and also all the lyrics. There might still be a few extremely rare tracks that I am not aware of ...but not many :-)
