To celebrate Record Store Day 2025 (Saturday, April 12th), there are three, very tempting, limited edition releases coming that will be of interest to Pink Floyd fans. Firstly, Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets share an incredible live version of their interpretation of Echoes. Propelled by Nick Mason’s drumming, this recording captures the band with Gary Kemp, Guy Pratt, Dom Beken and Lee Harris at the peak of their powers. The performance was recorded on August 1st, 2024 at the Centennial Hall in Frankfurt, Germany by Steve Carr. Echoes Live was mixed by Steven Wilson with consultation and assistance from Dom Beken. This 12″ was half-speed mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road and uniquely plays from the inside-out for the ultimate sound quality. The B-side includes an exclusive etched design. Secondly, there’s a special clear vinyl 12″ of Between Two Points by David Gilmour with Romany Gilmour, from the album Luck and Strange. The four-track, vinyl-only release will feature an exclusive live version (coupled with Vita Brevis) from the Royal Albert Hall plus a new remix by Rob Gentry. Finally, in advance of his super deluxe box set, Roger Waters releases a special version of The Dark Side Of The Moon Redux Live. Pressed on limited-edition neon pink vinyl and recorded during two sold-out shows at the London Palladium in October 2023, this album captures the only live performance of Roger’s reimagined version of Pink Floyd’s seminal album. As with the other RSD 2025 releases, these are all limited editions: often the RSD releases are pressed up as just a few thousand or so worldwide, available to snap up on the day. And, as we’ve mentioned in previous years, these limited edition items are ONLY released via RSD participating stores, this year on 12th April 2025 – go to RecordStoreDay.com (https://www.recordstoreday.com/) or RecordStoreDay.co.uk (https://www.recordstoreday.co.uk) for more details of who those will be, and to get the full list of all releases in this event. A reminder that it will ONLY be these stores participating; the stores themselves can’t sell it online prior – the record will become available for customers coming through the door of the store from the morning of the 12th (and not before), in limited quantities – first come, first served, and only one copy per customer. After RSD, if copies remain, they may put them for sale online (and of course, there’ll also be copies on eBay inevitably…).
