Are they only doing Immersion for Dark Side, WYWH & The Wall? where is MEDDLE my friends? I'm going to tear myself to pieces!

btw PINK FLOYD RULES
meddle immersion set would rule. they could do five bonus discs of live "ECHOES" how much would that rule.

They haven't finished figuring out the rest of the program yet, I think they wanna see how these ones go, there are vague plans to do a twofer thing with Piper/Saucerful and some early bits and Barrett material as reported in the press last month.

A: because PINK FLOYD RULES
― Euler, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 21:18 (twelve years ago) link
Saucerful rules, listened to it once when driving through southwestern Colorado, near Cortez & four corners, & it ruled extra hard because the rocks are all spooky & I ended up setting the controls for the heart of the sun & no drugs were NOT (yet) involved

this is pretty funny. would be wild if they got waters to record bass parts. #1 with a bullet!
― tylerw, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 21:21 (twelve years ago) link
is it wrong that I love AMLoR? "On The Turning Away" is such a portentous dinosaur of a song, proto-meaningful core, but it rules anyway.
― Euler, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 21:23 (twelve years ago) link
so wrong that it rules

Has anybody heard the Parsons monitor mix of DSOTM yet? so much reverb, no wonder Waters argued for a drier mix.

So, does "Embryo" remain un-rereleased?

Looks like it so far...unless they redo "Works"

hmph. so there really isn't an extended studio version of that song? are the long ones just live?
― tylerw, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 22:10 (twelve years ago) link

Or Mason to record drum parts. Or Wright to record keyboard parts.

Oh wait, I actually forgot Wright isn't available for those...

Or Mason to record drum parts. Or Wright to record keyboard parts.yeah i think that's the idea? to use tracks those dudes recorded? not sure how it would work, but whatever pink floyd rules.

If Mason and Wright actually recorded stuff that didn't appear on the record, yeah, I'd be into hearing AMLoR.

Last night on Fallon, the Roots played the funk breakdown of "Echoes" to bring on Nick Mason. The interview was idiotic and pointless. Mason could barely get a word in.

here's what the dude remastering the albums said about AMLor (acronyms rule)SDE: Will A Momentary Lapse of Reason be remixed for an Immersion box set? David Gilmour has mentioned before his interest in “mixing the 80s out of it”
AJ: Interesting point. A Momentary Lapse of Reason is an odd one out inasmuch as it’s the only album that was trying to be ‘of the time’, which now means it sounds dated, rather than timeless. We have started this process a while ago, doing new drums with Nick with a much more “Pink Floyd classic” approach. If & when we’ll pick it up I don’t know.
SDE: (reponse to above): Very interesting…. one assumes that if there was to be an Immersion Edition of A Momentary Lapse of Reason then this process would probably be completed. Is it just the drums that have been redone so far?
AJ: Yes and yes. It was our intention to remove some of the 80′s synths and get more Rick hammond on it. Obviously not possible for him to do it now, but we started the process of pulling some of his playing from gigs of those songs. Just a lot of editing/syncing to do on that, but it should work
― tylerw, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 22:56 (twelve years ago) link
The only song on AMLOR that doesn't rule as much as the others is "The Dogs of War". I don't know what 80s synths they're talking about---don't fuck with "Signs of Life"!
― Euler, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 23:09 (twelve years ago) link
if they just dropped dogs of war the album would rule alot more.

the only time i got to see floyd the sky was overcast all day, threatening a storm that would ruin the show at chicago's outdoor soldier field. thankfully no rain fell on the way there or during the first set. after a ten-minute break the wind effects that begin "one of these days" started up . . . and it started to rain. it rained all through "one of these days," not a downpour or anything, but enough to match the storminess of the song. then once the song finished it stopped raining immediately. and that was it for the rest of the night. it was like god was floyd's roadie. that's how much this band rules

Came so close to buying about six of these reissues today. Might still pick 'em up on Friday; Best Buy 3 blocks from my job has the single discs for $9.99 and the doubles for $19.99. Looking at Ummagumma, Meddle, Dark Side, Wish and Animals - considering The Wall but will probably pass.

How do these new remasters compare to the last go round? I don't really feel like re-buying these all over again. Might fill in the few gaps I have though.

was just reading the lyrics to "On The Turning Away" & while that song rules, the lyrics are pretty...Live Aid-ish, I guess.
did not know that Phil Manzanera co-wrote "One Slip"! I guess that album's not a million miles away from Avalon, sonically.

As a huge Slapp Happy and Anthony Moore fan, I've always found it awesome he worked with Pink Floyd on that album. Just wish I liked the results better.
― dan selzer, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 16:03 (twelve years ago) link
I just have awful memories of trying to catch a decent video on MTV at my dad's on the weekend and instead getting that pneumatic intro telling me that yes, here's "Learning to Fly" once again.
Floyd rules, but some more than others.

don't know! i actually have very few floyd albums on CD. vinyl/dubbed cassettes mostly.but here's a review from amazonPink Floyd , is a hard band to EQ. Turn up the highs and lose the lows. It also works the other way around. So having to turn UP your stereo up to massive sound levels of volume just to hear more detail , rarely works [SEE : Steve Hoffman]. JAMES GUTHRIE and Co. , have found a perfect balance between the two. ANIMALS , has always been remastered way too quiet. Even those Japanese versions left you wanting just a bit. Animals , was very well recorded to begin with. It just needed a TAD more volume to put it over the edge. So this 2011 remaster has a little more volume and everything sounds just amazing. If you liked the sound of the remastered BEATLES' volume and sound , you will just love this. Also , if you loved the volume / cleanliness and clearness of , ECHOS : The Best Of Pink Floyd [e.g. SHEEP] you will also love this version. OR , if you loved Peter Gabriel's 2010 remasters you will just love this regular CD. If you are expecting , LED ZEPPELIN : MotherShip , kind of volume you will be disappointed. As I have written before ; this CD has the perfect balance between too quiet and too loud. I can also apply this review too the other regular CDs called , The Dark Side of the Moon , Wish You Were Here and Meddle [all a little louder]. Each at a different volume , the sound volume increase suited for each particular CD. Some more volume , more clarity for each different instrument and all wonderful!!! A Momentary Lapse Of Reason , sounds a little better than the 2005 version which also had some re-mixing done by , Guthrie. SO , this is not just another rip off and is well worth your money.

Thanks! Was genuinely curious, recent remasters seem really hit-or-miss so I wanted some opinions before I shell out anything.
