@bigtwin I know what you mean!
I remember going to the DarkSide Of The Moon tour as well.
New Pink Floyd release
Pink Floyd is commemorating the 50th anniversary of the release of Dark Side of the Moon.
The forthcoming The Dark Side Of The Moon box set will be available through Warners on March 24. It includes a CD and gatefold vinyl of the newly remastered studio album and Blu-Ray and DVD audio featuring the original 5.1 mix and remastered stereo versions. The set also includes an additional new Blu-ray disc of a Dolby Atmos mix plus CD and LP of The Dark Side Of The Moon - Live At Wembley Empire Pool, London, 1974.
I hope the "remastered" versions are worthy improvements, but that isn't always the case these days.
The artwork is creating a stir among a small segment of "fans" who don't know what prisms and rainbows are... attacking or dis-owning the band for their "wokism". Can't make this stuff up, sadly.

@styleman If you read the article, you would know that it's the so-called anti-woke idiots who have a problem with the colors of the prism.
I looked on Pink Floyd's website and unfortunately, didn't see any individual LPs or optical disks for the 50th anniversary...just the huge, expensive set of mixed media. I'll skip this version unless they decide to offer single media version after the sales for the sets slow down. |
Money grab?? Really? They are professional musicians who make a living selling their music. They've evidently identified demand for a 50th anniversary collection and are investing in satisfying that demand. More power to them! Most of us work or worked for a living. Guess we're all guilty of this "money grab" some of you whine about. As a person who spends a lot of time listening to music, I'm wondering if it will be something for me, or not... very simple. I have no use for a $200 + collection of LPs and CDs, but.. if they somehow come up with a single, remastered LP or CD that sounds better than my original releases and my 2 mofi LPs and mofi CDs....count me in. If not, I hope they sell a lot of sets to collectors who will appreciate the sets and PF can recoup their investment and make a profit too.

@amitynick Not only can you not read or comprehend, but you even think you can call people "tards" to insult them. Here is your post in all it's glory. "I swear these woke-tards wake up each morning LOOKING for something to be offended by." @au_lait Amen! Enjoy the music! |
@tim_p New ones are listed as" buy it now" for $350-$400 on eBay. Auctions for new and used copies starting in the $250-$300 range. |
