"Why Pink Floyd..." Pink Floyd - Re-mastered CDs, DVDs, SACDs and Downloads

The new “Why Pink Floyd” mammoth collection of new re-mastered albums, new boxsets and digital releases shall be promoted with a new official Pink Floyd website.

The site is due to go live very soon as per the image to the right which currently occupies the home page of the site.

I have been guessing at various URLs to try and reveal a sneak peak at the new site but it appears it is not loaded to the server just yet!

Why Pink Floyd – New Albums and Boxsets

The entire back catalogue of Pink Floyd has been remastered and will be released under the title of “Why Pink Floyd…” and features three groups of releases and even a new best of called A Foot In The Door. The collection will feature rare songs, unreleased songs and unheard pieces, including a song from Household Objects.

Discover - This group features all of the studio albums remastered by James Guthrie. The albums will be available separately or as part of a new box set. Lots of new artwork by long term Pink Floyd artwork designer Storm Thorgerson.

Experience - Takes the Discover album and adds another CD of joy and some other goodies to allow you to experience the album at a greater depth.

Immersion - Three of the albums in Why Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall) will be presented each in its own big box set with lots of DVDs, CDs and other fun memorabilia. These look absolutely brilliant and I cannot wait to get my hands on them!

It will be the 30th Anniversary of the release of Pink Floyd’s The Wall in November 2009 which is only a couple of months away now.  It would therefore be very fitting if a re-release of The Wall was issued to the fans.  But, instead of just rehashing what already existed and adding a new booklet and charging loads of money for it, it would be nice if there was some new material.  Hence an SACD would be nice!

Some of The Wall concerts of 1980-81 were recorded to film according to Roger Waters but he felt that the quality of the filming was not good enough to warrant releasing it on a DVD.  But, perhaps, it would be very suitable to be included on a hybrid SACD for example presented in glorious 5.1 stereo! Such an SACD would also be even more of a treat if it were to include some new video interviews with the band, a sort of catch up with things over the past few years.

Anyway, time will tell.  Make sure you are subscribed to the NPF Newsletter to remain informed on any news that comes our way so you dont miss out on knowing what we can expect in November 2009 if anything at all!!
