Pink Floyd 1968WOW - 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.

PULSE CD - 2006 reissue details Print E-mail
Written by Matt   
Wednesday, 23 August 2006
Last week saw EMI reissue Pink Floyd's 1995 PULSE double CD in Europe, and we have had a number of emails asking if there is any difference between this and the original version.

pulse06fThe differences on this new edition appear to be purely cosmetic. The 2006 version uses a standard modern double jewel case CD box instead of the lavish booklet/slipcase version we are used to (original copies of which featured a flashing red LED on the spine... until the battery ran out, that is).

The new edition comes with a 20 page booklet in the jewel case, and this booklet features a new layout with a few minor text edits. The tracklisting is now shown on both CDs, and there is a new eye design inside the "O" of Pink Floyd on the spine. For those interested in differing editions, the catalogue number of this new edition is 724349143623.

pulse06bThere are NO reports of any audible differences between the editions, however, the price of the double CD seems to be pegged at a very low level - below the standard price of a new release (at Amazon, anyway). With the track listing different to the recently released DVD (the CD includes Astronomy Domine which - going by our mailbox - was the number one thing that fans wanted to see on the DVD, but which didn't appear), this new edition should prove popular.

It can be ordered through the following special links: Amazon UK/Europe, France, or Germany. For those outside these countries, these branches of Amazon DO ship CDs to anywhere in the world. Also, please remember that any item bought through our links to Amazon (not just Floyd items) helps with the running costs of the site, and we really appreciate it.

Our thanks to Rob Deighton for his thorough help with this story.
