We had official confirmation from the band's management today, that the title for the Pink Floyd mini-vinyl album CD box set is "Oh, By The Way...".
To remind you, the specially designed box - which is limited to just 10,000 copies worldwide - contains the entire set of Pink Floyd studio albums on CD, in faithful reproductions of the original vinyl versions of the albums, complete with gatefold sleeves, posters and suchlike.
There's also a special, high-quality poster, a new Storm Thorgerson 40th anniversary collage of images from the band's history, and a bonus DVD. (UPDATE: DVD has been cancelled)
Full details can be found here, but in the meantime, if you are interested in the set we urge you to place your orders now to avoid disappointment - it seems to be selling fast!
Preorders for the box can be made through the following special links: Amazon UK, Amazon US/International, Amazon Canada, Amazon Germany, or Amazon France. Don't forget - ordering from Amazon using our links directly helps support Brain Damage, doesn't cost you any extra, and is greatly appreciated!

All of the Brain Damage team would like to extend their heartiest congratulations to Jon Carin, who celebrates his 43rd birthday tomorrow (Sunday, October 21st).
The talented multi-instrumentalist has been a key part of the Pink Floyd operation since 1985, and most recently toured with David Gilmour (on his On An Island tour), and Roger Waters (on his Dark Side Of The Moon tour). For those who have yet to read our fascinating interview with Jon, we urge you to do so - click here to see it.
Have a great day, Jon - and many happy returns!

To tie in with the launch of his new book "Taken By
Storm", along with the 4th edition/40th anniversary edition of "Mind Over Matter: The Images Of Pink Floyd" which is available in store soon, Storm Thorgerson undertook a fascinating discussion session and book signing, at the Borders in Westwood, Los Angeles, on Monday, October 15.
Naturally, we knew you'd want to hear about the event, so BD reporter Elizabeth San Agustin made the long journey to what turned out to be a memorable evening.
