Wish
You Were Here 50
gives fans an exciting new perspective into one of Pink Floyd’s
most iconic and best-loved records. The 50th anniversary edition
features multiple discs of rarities - 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
set includes
- a Blu-ray with a Dolby Atmos mix 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.
- The
2CDs and 4LPs (on exclusive clear vinyl) include the original album
plus nine studio bonus tracks. Exclusive to this set is a fourth
vinyl LP,
Live At Wembley 1974,
- a replica Japanese 7” Single of 'Have A Cigar' b/w 'Welcome To
The Machine',
- a hardcover book including unseen photographs,
- a comic
book tour programme
- a Knebworth poster.
Featuring
'Shine On You Crazy Diamond', the hypnotic 'Welcome To The Machine',
the scathing 'Have a Cigar', and the essential title track, Wish
You Were Here
is undoubtedly one of the most important album releases in the
history of popular music.
The
record’s themes of absence, isolation, transience, and comment on
the insincerity of the music business are embodied in the iconic
album artwork. 50
years since its release, Wish
You Were Here
sounds as resonant and vital as ever. This special anniversary
edition allows fans, for the first time, to delve deeper into a
pivotal moment in Pink Floyd’s history.
