AS THE 40th anniversary of Pink Floyd's debut album, Piper At the Gates Of Dawn rolls around, it's interesting to ruminate on what became of the plucky psych-poppers who made it. For the clearest gauge on the current state of Floyd, look no further than Remember That Night, a new DVD by David Gilmour, the man often billed as "The voice and guitar of Pink Floyd", who, of course, had yet to join the band when Piper appeared.
