Discussion: Pink Floyd: The Division Bell (20th anniversary collectors edition)

Posts: 2

I received mine today, June 27, 3 days early. A nice surprise from Pink Floyd and UPS! I've been wearing it out. I love the surround mix. It is pretty aggressive, but not too much. Kudos to Andy Jackson on this mix!

I had mentally prepared myself for an "ambient" mix like "Live in Gdansk", but I am pleasantly surprised. It leans more toward a Parsons mix than a Guthrie mix....and for me, that's a good thing. My subwoofer has been getting a good workout and I'm pleased with the bass.

I am so glad I bought this. If they would only learn to release the 5.1 blu ray by itself, these discs would fly off the shelf. The vinyl will probably be nothing more than a keepsake. Please, Pink Floyd, release Meddle/Animals/Wall in 5.1 format.

If interested solely in 5.1 Blu-ray, I immediately thought to firstly find friends who'd contribute for the other items of the 'box set' they'd like :
"The Division Bell 20th Anniversary collector's box set will feature a new 2-LP vinyl edition of the album, remastered by Doug Sax at The Mastering Lab from the original analogue tapes, including all the full length tracks (originally edited to fit on a single LP) in a gatefold sleeve designed by Hipgnosis/StormStudios. Five other discs are included: a red 7" vinyl replica of single Take It Back, clear 7" vinyl replica of High Hopes, 12" blue vinyl replica of High Hopes with reverse laser etched design, the 2011 Discovery remaster of 'The Division Bell' and a Blu-ray disc including 'The Division Bell' album in HD Audio, plus the previously unreleased 5.1 surround sound audio mix of the album by Andy Jackson.

Another addition included on the Blu-ray disc is a new video for Marooned, the track that won a Grammy for 'Best Rock Instrumental' in 1994. Filmed in Ukraine during the first week of April 2014, the video was directed by Aubrey Powell at Hipgnosis. It will appear on the disc with audio tracks in both PCM Stereo and a 5.1 mix by Andy Jackson."

Or, buy and resell...


Division, my ascetic ex-girlfriend likes to quote Karl Lagerfeld's reply to :
And being isolated is not a problem for you ?
"I have no problem. That’s the miracle of my life. There are no problems, only solutions—good ones or bad ones."
