Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here (5-LP Viny + 2-CD + Blu-ray)
Product Details
Released in 1975, Wish You Were Here arrived in the long shadow of The Dark Side of the Moon, and its central meditation on absence, largely inspired by Syd Barrett's tragic departure from the band, gave it an emotional weight that fans have carried for five decades. Mike Millard's legendary bootleg recordings, long traded among collectors, finally get the archival treatment they deserve here, making this the definitive document of where Pink Floyd stood at that precise, complicated moment.
Wish You Were Here 50 gives fans an exciting new perspective into one of Pink Floyd's most iconic and best-loved records. This 50th anniversary edition features rarities and live recordings - at the core of this special collection are six previously unreleased alternate versions and demos presenting Pink Floyd's eighth studio album in a brand-new way that demands repeat listening.
This Blu-ray includes a Dolby Atmos mix of the album for the first time by James Guthrie, plus 25 bonus tracks made up of nine studio rarities, and 16 live recordings captured by the renowned bootlegger Mike Millard at Pink Floyd's Los Angeles Sports Arena concert on April 26th, 1975, now receiving its first official release. The live audio has been meticulously restored and remastered by Steven Wilson. The Blu-ray also gives fans the chance to see three concert screen films from the band's 1975 tour, plus a Storm Thorgerson short film.
