Amused to Death - SACD & Vinyl - November 5, 2013?

nosaj · Post by **nosaj** » Fri Sep 20, 2013 12:31 am

"Analogue Productions’ vinyl and SACD reissues of Roger Waters‘ 1992 album Amused To Death will be released on 5 November, according to new listings on Amazon."

Stereo only SACD?

EDIT: Make of it what you will...the UK amazon sites don't mention a date. Germany looks like Nov. 12 for vinyl. Those krazy Kanucks may have it Nov. 5...who knows. I thought the vinyl was already re-released a while ago.

EDIT 2: And Steve Hoffman forum has the discussion: http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/r ... st-9392684

Hey, why are non-Floyd forums posting this stuff...AND why am I posting this? Frickin search and post stuff to enlighten us!!!!

As a hybrid disc its a bit unclear from the listing if they are referring to the CD stereo layer or the SACD layer when they use the wording stereo.
However, that said, if you go to a high end hi-fi retailer website it appears, and has done for some time now, that new SACD players only reproduce the discs in stereo anyway. Unless I'm getting it completely wrong it seems SACD as 5.1 is finished once my current machine eventually packs up.

My Local record dealer just told me that ATD reissue has been cancelled on all formats. Can anybody verify this.???

Looks like Amazon.de has a June 12 2015 release date. New artwork, too.

I thought the UK, CD/SACD, release was 25 May 2015

It seems it's getting a new 5.1 mix and artwork. Cool.

So... No "Homeland" on the horizon then?

Well you never know, this might spark a bit more interest in Roger's solo career.

Well Roger did mention that his new album is still being made, in this video:

So there's still hope of it being released in his lifetime.

About time, Roger!
If the promo video is anything to go by, this new mix sounds great.
AND HAL 9000 IS IN PERFECT SENSE NOW. GOD DAMN IT TAKE MY MONEY.

Pre - ordered the Vinyl Picture Discs as I have the other original formats. Their seems to be a conflict of dates on different sites, though I hope it is 24/7 for personal reasons.... Still waiting for "The Wall Tour" offical release though, Roger ?? !!!

New video of Roger discussing the songs. And I would guess those clips are from the new 2015 mix. Sounds good.

Two new videos relating to ATD:

I'm still shocked about how different (and great) this new mix sounds.

And Mr Jeff Beck's unplugged guitar and new visual effects that make me want to smash my screen.
