PACKAGING FEATURES THE ICONIC PULSING LIGHT
CONCERT FILMED LIVE ON 20 OCTOBER 1994 AT EARLS COURT, LONDON UK
RESTORED & RE-EDITED IN 2019 FROM THE ORIGINAL TAPE MASTERS
This release also sees the reintroduction of the iconic pulsating light as per the original 1995 CD release, this time operated by 2 replaceable AA batteries. The deluxe packages include music videos, concert screen films, documentaries, Pulse Tour rehearsal footage & more, alongside a 60-page booklet.
P.U.L.S.E., originally released as an album in 1995, was recorded on the European leg of the Division Bell tour and the DVD and Blu-Ray packages include the whole live performance of ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon' – the only full live filmed recording of this seminal album. The concert, filmed on 20 October 1994 at Earls Court in London, saw Pink Floyd play some of their classic tracks as well as highlights from the recently released album ‘The Division Bell'. Standout tracks include ‘High Hopes', ‘Keep Talking', ‘Sorrow', ‘Wish You Were Here', ‘Comfortably Numb' and ‘The Great Gig In The Sky'.
Nick Mason reflects on the original CD release and the pulsing LED light: “Essentially, it's a device which we thought was entertaining. It's an idea of Storm Thorgerson's which related to The Dark Side Of The Moon and the pulse, and it's a live album so the box is “alive”. After that, in terms of seriously deep meanings, one might be struggling a bit.”
