Pink Floyd will make their 1995 live album Pulse available on Blu-ray for the first time as part of the Pulse Restored & Re-Edited deluxe box set.
The Pulse live footage was recorded on Oct. 20, 1994, at Earls Court in London while the band was on its Division Bell tour. The Blu-ray and DVD box sets will feature the original concert — including a live performance of The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety — as well as music videos, concert-screen films, documentaries, tour-rehearsal footage and a 60-page booklet.
Perhaps most importantly, the new collection will also reintroduce the flashing red LED that appeared on early CD versions of Pulse, but this time it will be battery-operated.
Pulse Restored & Re-Edited will be released on Feb. 18 and is available for preorder now. You can see the deluxe track listing below.
Aubrey Powell, graphic designer and co-founder of album-cover design company Hipgnosis, originally re-edited the Pulse concert film for 2019's The Later Years box set. Photographs from Powell and Rupert Truman will be used to update the cover design, originally created by Storm Thorgerson and Peter Curzon for the 2006 DVD release.
“Essentially, it's a device which we thought was entertaining,” Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason said of the blinking LED in a statement. “It's an idea of Storm Thorgerson’s which related to The Dark Side of the Moon and the pulse, and it's a live album, so the box is ‘alive.’ After that, in terms of seriously deep meanings, one might be struggling a bit.”
