Pink Floyd Appreciation

A lot of harsh mastering areas on this one. Particularly side 2 with the transition at end of Brain Damage.

I'll play the JP 73 copy again. But I know it sounded much more natural and floaty.
 
I must really appreciate PF. Grabbed a '73 US 2nd wally pressing off cogs for $20 today.
VG+ so I am not expecting much but the curiosity for an early US release is killing me.

And yes I am an addict 😀
Thanks for coming to my circle.
 
on the spendy side, but what isn't these days. signed and deluxe box set versions available, too.

if there is one tour/show i could go back in time to see, it would absolutely be pink floyd in 1977.
 
Animals
Meddle
Wish You Were Here
Dark Side
The Division Bell (hot take I know, I bonded early with David's guitar playing and sound on this record)

Speaking of, best readily available pressing of Animals? And to a lesser extent WYWH?

I really feel like Division Bell is quite underrated and overlooked. I never gave it a listen until a couple years ago and I was quite surprised how much I liked it
 
i've got a soft spot for division bell. i do think people appreciate it more now than when it came out. high hopes is probably the gilmour-era high point, and i feel the best songs are the lesser mentioned ones- cluster one, poles apart, wearing the inside out, lost for words. listening to the carnival section in poles apart in the surround mix is a trip.
 
For some reason, Animals seems to be the worst recording off the discography.
The music is great just seems subpar compared to the rest of their recordings.

Wasn’t there news/rumors of a new remix coming soon? Did that get delayed or cancelled or something?
 
a 5.1 mix is ready and has been for awhile but apparently roger and david squabbled over the liner notes or some shit and that was/is holding everything up.

if those really are the liner notes, they're terrible and david is right to not want them on there.

there's a cover sticker:
