Oracle Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Oh my God, I'm trying to catch my breath! Remastered!? 6 disc versions of DSOTM, WYWH, and THE WALL!? Dear lord...starting to save money now for that box set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 I am looking forward to some of the unreleased material... I would like to hear some of lesser played live stuff from the pre-dark side days... in better than bootleg quality... Â Also I hope the early versions of Dogs and Sheep are on this..

rushgoober Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Alas, I wish they didn't HAVE to start with the ultra-popular 1973-1979 albums, but as long as they release the earlier stuff soon afterwards, I'll be happy.  And unreleased material/alternate takes? Are you shitting me? Pink Floyd is the rare, rare band (at least up through 1973) where pretty much EVERYTHING they ever did, even their unreleased material or outtakes is completely essential. Mostly my reaction is:   I know I'm dreaming, but if they officially released the early BBC recordings and the unreleased 4th Barrett single, I'd be beyond ecstatic.

The Owl Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Okay, I re-read the article.. It seems the box set is JUST the studio albums remastered (A LA the Beatles Box Set)... All the unreleased material will be part of the multi disc "Immersion" releases...   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I might just buy the box AND the immersion editions! I hope Dave, Rog, and Nick really get into this and give us a great product. Hopefully Rog will have time for this since he's still on tour.

They were performed at the 1974 Wembley shows so they should on there, assuming they release the full concert. The bootlegs of these shows sound tremendous so I'll really be looking forward to that.

No, the Shine On box set was only a few select albums which included 'A Saucerful of Secrets', 'Meddle', 'The Dark Side of the Moon', 'Wish You Were Here', 'Animals', 'The Wall', and 'A Momentary Lapse of Reason'. It also came with a special early singles CD that could only be bought with the box. According to Why Pink Floyd...?, the official site of the reissue campaign, there will be more details about vinyl releases soon. Methinks a remastered vinyl box set is in the works here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 How can this be? I have everything by this band. It's going to kill my pocketbook. I bet Japan will reissue everything in SHM cds housed in cardboard sleeves. Endless bliss. Boo Hiss.

rushgoober Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Oy, I finally looked at the official website. Â As far as I can tell, besides their three most popular albums including previously unreleased material, all their OTHER albums will be only remasters of the albums. Bummer, I was really hoping for some pre-Dark Side goodies. Kinda sucks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought they would have at least put 'Vegetable Man' and 'Scream Thy Last Scream' as bonus tracks for 'Piper'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony R Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Basically Pink Floyd are conspiring with EMI to rip off their fans. Not much in the way of genuine "new stuff" and the albums hardly need remastering, do they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much in the way of genuine "new stuff" and the albums hardly need remastering, do they? I'm sure Guthrie has been able to find something worth hearing. Not to mention that the previous remasters were, to be blunt, shitty and half-ass attempts. With a band like Pink Floyd that's widely known to have released a lot of quality work, the remasters really were underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
