New Pink Floyd Box Set to Be Released

It's with pleasure that we are finally able to bring you some proper news on the much-speculated on, upcoming "Pink Floyd Mini-Vinyl Studio Box Set"!

The set has been rumoured for some time, and various sites have posted information on it with varying degrees of accuracy, but we've just been given the official "nod" to reveal certain details to you of what will surely be on many peoples' Christmas present lists, including the confirmed release date and ordering details.

With not just the studio albums inside Storm Thorgerson's specially designed box, even those who have the entire back catalogue with find something of interest.

The main meat of the box set is the entire Pink Floyd studio album catalogue packaged as mini-vinyl reproductions all in one CD box set - much like the highly limited Japanese album replicas from a few years ago which now command high amounts on eBay!

You'll get:

• The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
• A Saucerful Of Secrets
• More
• Ummagumma (2 CD)
• Atom Heart Mother
• Meddle
• Obscured By Clouds
• The Dark Side Of The Moon
• Wish You Were Here
• Animals
• The Wall (2 CD)
• The Final Cut
• A Momentary Lapse Of Reason
• The Division Bell
  

Each CD is a faithful reproduction of the original vinyl using original artwork, all the original inserts (posters, stickers, and the like) and LP-style dust jackets. We also understand that there will be an 20" x 30" high quality poster included.

In addition, there will be a DVD in the box, which looks to feature the individual members of the band discussing the 40th anniversary and landmarks in their career. There may be some musical content also in the DVD, but like the box set as a whole, some details of the DVD are still to be decided on and an official announcement should be made soon once every element of the box set is cast in stone.

Finally, that all important release date. The band's manager told us last night that this is currently looking to be December 3rd with the normal variations around the world - for example, the USA is December 4th.

The perfect way to fill all those gaps in your collection, or for those who are yet to get the majority of the studio albums. With the DVD, and the very special presentation of the set, this collection (which we hear is limited to 10,000 worldwide) should sell quickly.

WOO-HOO!! This is what I've been waiting for! I am still missing Obscured By Clouds and everything before Meddle... just within the past couple years I've really started appreciating that stuff more (thanks to The Machine, gotta add that), but I've been holding off on buying anything, hoping this would happen. Well I know what I'M getting for Christmas this year... woo-hoo!

By the way, PFO, you're missing Wish You Were Here on your list above... it's on the photo and it's included on Brain Damage's news blurb.

[/color]Hi all! This is great news!

I was wondering how much the Pink Floyd Box Set costs. Can you help me with this and let me know how can I buy it online?

Thank you!

I have several of the albums on cd and a great bootleg (Best Ballads) so I dont think I will be buying this.I might check ebay for a promo cd of songs,but I do have several pf cds.How bout a bbc cd set with rare syd material and maybe a career dvd set with live,promos &interviews like led zeppelin did.

bit of a rip off i think. They could of released a box set of unreleased songs demos outtakes rarites footage from live shows from over the decades. Or just release The Wall live DVD they have lots of unreleased gems hidding in their vaults BBC sessions other unreleased shows and concert footage release that plz

wtf is a mini vinyl?
