Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd’s ninth studio album, was recorded at London’s Abbey Road Studios, and, when originally released in September 1975, it shot to the top of the charts in the UK, US and Australia. The mood of the album is one of absence, which includes one of the most majestic and poignant songs of all time ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’, a track inspired by former bandmate Syd Barrett. It is without a doubt one of the few albums in recent history that deserve to be called a classic and a game changer.
The ‘Experience’ edition of Wish You Were Here released this month includes the original studio album, digitally remastered by James Guthrie, along with a CD of previously unreleased live and studio recordings (identical to Disc 2 of the Immersion edition) and a new 20 page booklet designed by Storm Thorgerson, housed in a newly designed Digipak.
We’ve got 5 copies set aside for Tone Deaf readers. Will one be yours?
