PINK FLOYD: DISCOVERY EDITIONS

Since 1967 Pink Floyd have produced one of the most outstanding and enduring catalogues in the history of recorded music. All 14 original Studio albums have now been painstakingly digitally remastered by James Guthrie (co-producer of The Wall), and will be reissued as Discovery Editions with newly crafted packaging and booklets, created by Storm Thorgerson. All releases will include full album lyrics.

As well as these Discovery Editions, we will also have limited stock of the 2CD
Experience Edition of Dark Side Of The Moon.


Originally released in 1973 it remained on the chart for 741 weeks between 1973 and 1988. The new experience version presents the original studio album, digitally remastered  with bonus CD featuring a previously unreleased recording of The Dark Side Of The Moon performed live at Wembley in 1974. It also features a newly designed Digipak and a new 16 page booklet designed by Storm Thorgerson, including all lyrics.


CD1. The Dark Side Of The Moon digitally remastered by James Guthrie

CD2. The Dark Side Of The Moon performed live at Wembley 1974 (previously unreleased)

Floyd are one of those bands who do their own thing in their own world, and in their own time. These reissues provide an opportunity to re-discover what's so great about their music. The band has always been known for their quality control and attention to detail.

They're fussy buggers so these promise to be fine releases!
