Pink Floyd To Overhaul Back Catalogue

Pink Floyd’s back catalogue is to get a total overhaul, with their albums to be made available in various deluxe editions.

This will begin in the late September, with Dark Side Of The Moon being released as a six-disc Immersion box set and also in a two-disc Experience version, plus a collector’s edition vinyl LP and digital formats. On the same day, 14 other Floyd albums, all digitally remastered, are to be re-released in various formats.

This is to be followed in early November by Wish You Were Here, which will be put out as both a five-disc Immersion set and also in a two-disc Experience format. Both will include material from the band’s 1974 Wembley Arena shows. At the same time, a Floyd compilation titled A Foot In The Door – The Best Of Pink Floyd will come out.

Next February, The Wall will get a similar deluxe treatment, with a seven-disc Immersion and a three-disc Experience versions, plus collector’s vinyl and digital formats.

Knowing Floyd prices, deluxe editions will be expensive.
Not looking forward to it.

I would consider the DSOTM edition, but like Nolo said they won't be cheap...:nw:

Right now I believe I have 4 different versions of DSOTM,,,so another one isn't essential but it would be nice to have another vinyl LP.

^^They might be at that Cornish...:D

Although I love Pink Floyd and always will, this falls into the "Remaster of a Remaster of yet another Remaster" catagory, which equals "Let's make more money without really doing too much other than dressing up the old catalog of one of our legendary bands". Then have a cigar and toast their genius no doubt.:)
