Nice they are making the blu-ray available by itself. Can't wait to hear the surround mix of this one!

I was conviced that they would only made it available though the super deluxe.

So I am positivley surprised and will happily buy it.

I preordered one from the demon Bezos (Amazon). Free shipping & price guarantee. I can't wait for this one! I love Pink Floyd up to "The Final Cut" (I know, that's really a Roger solo record but it still is considered PF) & "Animals" is my favorite record by them. The songwriting & playing on that record is outstanding.

Where there`s a market, there`s a re-release. -Just makes me think if those re-releases had been brand new releases...

The big attraction for me is the surround sound mix. Pink Floyd really lends itself well to that treatment. I love those mixes but you have to have worthy source material.

I can't even listen to post Waters PF.
I would consider all albums up to 'The Wall" essential PF.
I would rather sit through "The Grand Vizier's Garden Party" haha... than anything from the Gilmour fronted PF.

summary: a new mix without bonus tracks and 4 year delay due to linner note conflict. Do I get it right ? Isn't It a Pity ?

Yes it is! I was also hoping for some demo’s or live tracks of the 77 tour at least. I really don’t know if I will buy it although it’s a very good album

The renewed cover is still epic, the rest is just a pity.
There might be some live Animals though on wednesday, when Roger debuts his THIS IS NOT A DRILL Tour in Pittsburgh.

too bad, they did not include a complete show from that tour ...

The Animals material on the last Waters tour was amazing.

Yes! The starting 25 minutes of the second half of the show was probably the best thing I ever saw at a concert. Unreal!

sign me up

Animals!
Did they do "Dogs?"

~"Love is Strong"~

Not only was the music amazing but the way they recreated the power station in the arena was also spectactular.

The dynamics of post-Waters Pink Floyd tells the same tale about the balance in a great band.
Beatles, Stones, Floyd, Van Halen, Roxy Music, U2, Clash - it may be torture for the actual artists on the inside, but every ying needs the yang. You might have the two dominating forces, who are driving each other crazy; yet they produce great art.
Then maybe because their head gets too big, or they just can't take it anymore, they do the split. Each side left to their own devices, unchallenged, and the magic is gone.

I am in Pittsburgh. ANy well behaved fans here want to see the show hit me up, I don't need anything, not even a beer

Excellent observation.

You are a really good person !!!!!!!!!!!

There are Pink Floyd "fans" who don`t know the name of neither Roger Waters nor David Gilmour. They bought "The Wall" and a "Best of" (to play in the car) and that`s it. Huh?

The Japanese exclusive clear vinyl of Hey Hey Rise Up is absolutely exquisite looking!!! Unfortunately, I just learned of it this am, and it seems to be all sold out everywhere, and INSANELY overpriced in the secondary markets!!!

Interesting. It's also sold out at the [www.SonyMusicShop.jp] . Maybe they'll re-press it due to the high demand? Amazon says: 'out of stock' - but not 'sold out'.
