 WOW - it's now the 27th YEAR of Brain Damage, your Pink Floyd, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Syd Barrett, Richard Wright and Roger Waters news resource!
Marking the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd's iconic 1975 album, a range of Wish You Were Here 50 celebratory editions: deluxe box set, blu-ray, 3LP set, 2CD set and coloured vinyl single LPs came out at the end of last year. Full details here. The LA 1975 concert, recorded by Mike Millard and remastered by Steven Wilson, came out as a standalone item on 4LP for Record Store Day, and 2CD across most of the world.
The stunningly restored and remixed Pink Floyd At Pompeii MCMLXXII on Blu-ray, 2CD, 2LP, DVD, and digital was also released in 2025 - and is NOT to be missed. As is the 4K UltraHD edition out now!
Also last year, celebrating the concerts to coincide with David Gilmour's album, Luck and Strange, cinema/IMAX screenings, and a book, 2Blu-ray, 3DVD, 4LP, 2CD and deluxe box set options were also released and are getting very high praise.
The Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets 2024 Set The Controls tour revealed a band in even better form than the 2022/23 shows which managed to exceed everyone's hopes and expectations! Our sincerest hopes are that they continue, but in the meantime, there's their RSD release, and the earlier live recording from London's Roundhouse on Blu-ray, DVD/2CD, and 2LP which is really excellent.
Of course, Roger Waters read three extracts from his memoirs in October 2023 at the London Palladium, so it might not be too much longer before that is published...he's also working on his new album based around The Bar - we'll let you know as soon as we get all the info! Before all that though is the release of Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill Live In Prague on 4LP vinyl, Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD and digital which is out now.

David Gilmour - first two album remasters - final date set |

We reported previously that the
promised reissues of David Gilmour's highly regarded first two solo
albums, were finally on their way. Due to hit the stores on the same
day as Pink Floyd's PULSE DVD - July 10th/11th, delays struck these
titles, but David's website have now confirmed the revised date for
these to appear.
They will now be in the stores on
August 14th in Europe (via EMI), and August 15th in the US, Canada,
Australia, and New Zealand (via SonyBMG).

They add that the CDs have been
remastered by Doug Sax of the Mastering Lab and Pink Floyd audio
associate James Guthrie respectively, whose dedication to quality
extends beyond the mastering to the actual CD pressings. They have been
working closely with Sony and EMI to ensure that the actual CD
pressings are the best that mass pressing equipment can produce, and
the approval process has taken up a little time, hence the delay.
From the huge number of emails we
had during David's recent tour, bemoaning the fact that none of the
tracks from these albums were played live, it is obvious that these are
going to popular CDs.
For those of you who haven't
heard one/both of these, you are in for a treat. The first album has a
bluesy feel, a contrast to David's work on the then recently released
Animals album, whilst the second brings a more contemporary feel, a
precursor to later period Floyd albums (A Momentary Lapse Of Reason and
The Division Bell).
We understand that the packaging
is as before, and contrary to very early reports about these titles,
there are NO additional tracks.
