| Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner When I go to amazon I see 2 editions of this book. On APFFN, they recommend the version of 1992, but there's also one of 2003. If the newer one is just the same from another editor or is it really updated with TDB, Pulse, etc.? Thanks! Or do you recommend me to buy another book as a Floyd Biography?

| Re: Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner It is probably just re-issued since Shaffner died of Aids in 1992.

| Re: Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner Yeah, and I would also think that if someone else had got the permission of Mr. Schaffner's relatives to update the book, Amazon would be showing a co-author on the new edition, and I don't see that here.

| Re: Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner I am not ENTIRELY sure. I did notice that the page numbers differ, 348 in one and 368 in another. Whether that's a typo or not, or simply due to something like a new format for the old text, or any other explanation, I don't know.

| Re: Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner Perhaps it updated the discography, or chart placements, or something. I can't imagine he actually contacted someone from the beyond just to update a book about a pop group.

| Re: Saucerful of Secrets by Schaffner I'm sure it's been updated by someone. It would be pointless to just reissue the 1991 version without filling in all that has happened since. Silvan, get the 2003 edition and give us a report.

Sorry, but that came too late now....  Just bought the older version at amazon. I'm from Switzerland, so I've got to use amazon.de and there the new version isn't available anymore. Hope I'll enjoy the book anyway. Can't find a review of the 2003 edition.
