Pink Floyd 2011 / 2012 release schedule on Amazon.com

Are they doing one for Animals?

 

Doesn't look like it. Go to Amazon...type in Pink Floyd under music, choose release date order...then see all for yourself...pretty interesting.

 

Steven Wilson is waiting a YEAR after releases now, to give us the vinyl versions, so...

 

a press release (similar to the 09/09/09 one) would be greatly appreciated.

 

Did someone mention a press release?

 

Yeah, just did it. Anyways I know what I'm getting for Christmas.

 

I was preordering at 2am !!!!! Really.

 

I just remembered the last time I woke up unexpectedly...Roger Waters on Jimmy Fallon...I have no idea what is happening to me, I'm just saying it's happening.

 

Well now... this is quite a thread to see first thing in the morning.

 

Personally, I'm not interested in live material from the same era as the albums. They should release this stuff seperately, for example in a live box set.

I'd rather prefer a Deluxe set of the studio albums, with bonus material strictly related to the studio sessions, and a Blu-ray with hi-rez multichannel (and stereo of course) sound.

 

in case of Floyd, the live shows were works in progress leading up to

or working out what would be in an album

 

Definitely excited, but I'll hold off on ordering until more info and some listening/engineering reviews start to show up.

That's a good chunk of change...... (got a hunch I'll end up getting them anyway )

 

Play.com has detailed tracklistings.

Look at this travesty best-of they're going to release.

5 songs from Dark Side of the Moon, really? The album art couldn't be more misrepresentative, showing all their album covers. Only pre-Dark Side song is See Emily Play.

In this case, it really should be called "A Toe in the Door".

 

There's a track listed as "Us and Them" Richard Wright demo, so I'm sure that's what it is.

 

There's no need for buying it.
But what I am hoping for is inclusion of 1980 Earl's Court video of The Wall.

 

I'm thrilled to be getting any additional live material from this era and as someone else pointed out, these concerts should shed light on the development of the studio material. I would also love to see more archival live releases from the '68-'72 period, including an official release of the BBC sessions.

I'm also excited about the hi-rez mixes for these. Is this the mystery project that Steve Wilson has been hinting at lately? If so, this music will be in good hands.

 

Of course there isn't, but I hate how new generations of Floyd fans are going to think that's all there is to it. The "Echoes: Best of Pink Floyd" compilation was a good round-up and sold a lot, too, but with this they're just purposely trying to capitalize by using the same tracks from the same overplayed material.

There is good to be had in this, though, with the bonus material they're issuing. I just hope they do "experience" and "immersion" editions of their other albums, too.

 

How on earth did I miss that?! Haha, cheers.

 

I just pre-ordered everything except for The Wall. Here's hoping there will be an "Immersion" version of that one. Hey, that rhymes!

Now I eagerly await these releases to be delayed seven times.

 

Blimey. They have certianly gone to town on these. Do you have to be an investment banker to be a PF fan

 

Maybe they will now start to separate the wheat from the chaff?

 

I also pre-ordered the Discovery box.

So I guess the two-track Wish You Were Here CDs are worth $5 now?

 

They are up on Amazon UK as well, listed as EMI rather than Capitol, same thing I guess. They seem to be, as usual, much more expensive in the UK, roughly the same in pounds as dollars (£93 compared to $101, so like $140 for us).
