With the release of the 2020 version (Restored. Re-Edited. Remixed.) of Delicate Sound of Thunder just under two weeks away, on November 20th, the band’s YouTube and social media channels have posted an unboxing video showing off the various editions. Those of you fortunate enough to have the Floyd’s Later Years box set will already know just how good the 2020 version is. This was a result of going directly to the more than 100 cans of original 35mm negatives, painstakingly restoring and transferring the footage to 4K. It was then completely re-edited by Benny Trickett under the creative direction of Aubrey Powell/Hipgnosis. Similarly, the sound was completely remixed from the original multitrack tapes by longtime Floyd engineer Andy Jackson with David Gilmour, assisted by Damon Iddins. Suffice it to say that in the home setting, the quality is quite incredible and the new edit is great! The visual softness of the original VHS release is long gone, thank goodness, and this is as sharp and detailed as you could ever want, with vibrant colours, really showing off the visual aspect of the presentation. The video below initially has some comparison of the old and the new to show some of the differences, although the Blu-ray version is even starker in the difference in quality. You’ll be able to get hold of this release on Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD, 3-disc 180-gram heavyweight vinyl and as a deluxe 4-disc edition with bonus tracks. All editions feature 24-page photo booklets, with the 4-disc box edition including a 40-page photo booklet, tour poster and postcards. The 3LP 180-gram vinyl set includes 9 songs not included on the 1988 release of the album, while the 2CD includes 8 tracks more than its original release. It is bound to be a popular release for many, and pre-orders are now open for the various editions.

Richard Wright ‘Wet Dream’ reissue with Steven Wilson remix release details (updated)
Some great news has been announced this afternoon, following some online rumours and speculation – Richard Wrightâs debut solo album, Wet Dream, is to be reissued on vinyl for the first time since its original release in 1978 – this time in deep blue transparent marbled vinyl. It will also be available on streaming platforms for the first time ever including a new Dolby Atmos mix, on CD and on blu-ray which includes a 5.1 mix and never before released personal images and videos from around this period of his life. To be released on July 28th – the date that would have been his 80th birthday – it will initially be made available on CD and all streaming platforms, with the vinyl and blu-ray editions of the record being released on September 29th. Remixed by Steven Wilson, this reissue comes with brand new artwork that was commissioned and art-directed by Gala and Jamie Wright, Richard’s children and managers of his estate. As per the original release, the bi-fold sleeve folds out to extend the image and features the same vibrant colour palette. This time, the unidentified person in bright red shorts is swimming within deep blue waters of the sea rather than a pool and the image expands out to reveal a boat slightly out of their reach, referencing the nautical theme of the record. The image was taken by Costas Spathis, a photographer living and working in Greece, which is where the album was written and the graphic design is by Carl Glover. The original artwork was designed by Storm Thorgerson and photographed by Audrey Powell for Hipgnosis and features in the vinyl booklet. Upon rediscovering this record, it becomes hugely apparent how much of Richard’s DNA runs through Pink Floyd. His distinct rhythm patterns, song structure and style of play exudes throughout, shining a light on his unique talent and influence on modern music. When originally released, post Pink Floyd’s Animals (1977) and shortly before 1979’s The Wall, Wet Dream was largely under-appreciated. Steven Wilson’s mix is designed to give new life to the record demonstrating Wright’s brilliance. Richard wrote and produced the whole album himself and it was one of only three albums he released outside of Pink Floyd, the others being Broken China, from 1996, and Identity, released in 1983 under the guise of Zee, a duet with Dave Harris from Fashion. The Blu-ray edition of Wet Dream includes the Dolby Atmos mIx, a 5.1 surround mix (DTS-HD Master Audio 96/24), the new stereo mix in Hi-Res Audio (96/24), and exclusive personal videos along with a photo gallery. It’s housed in a book format with four collectable postcards and an 8-page booklet. UPDATE: due to feedback on the contents of the Blu-ray, it has been expanded to also include a flat transfer of the original pre-master of the 1978 stereo mix, taken from the analogue reels, as well as Steven Wilson’s 2023 instrumental stereo mixes of the four vocal tracks on the album being added. Here’s a first taste of the album: ORDERING INFORMATION:

Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets 2022 US/Canada tour postponed
In an unsurprising, and arguably sensible move – bearing in mind the current global situation with Covid-19 and the Omicron variant, which is spreading extremely fast – the January/February 2022 Saucerful Of Secrets tour of the US and Canada has now been postponed until later in the year. The band’s social media channels note the move “with great regret” and point at the “uncertainty surrounding the Covid pandemic”. We think this is totally understandable and an eminently sensible move, despite any disappointment. Everyone’s health has got to be the priority at the current time. Venues involved are suggesting that the rescheduled dates will be taking place in the Fall (Autumn) of 2022, which we all hope will see things on a much better footing than at the moment. As most of you will have had experience of Covid-related postponements of various events, you will know that as a ticket holder, you are advised to hold onto your original tickets and await further information from the venue and/or ticket company where you purchased your tickets. Once we have the revised dates, we will let you all know. Rescheduling dates is a difficult thing, to ensure a logical and achievable route, so we’d expect it to take a little while, particularly with the Christmas and New Year seeing businesses and venues either closed for the festive period or on reduced staffing.
