The collector’s edition will be a limited edition crystal clear 2LP, 180g set of the classic album featuring UV artwork printing on the non-groove side. This set will feature the prism spectrum seen through the playable side of the vinyl while maintaining the best quality sound that fans expect. This new edition is housed in a gatefold sleeve with slipcase and an exclusive poster.
This is the first time that Pink Floyd have used this pioneering UV printing process on vinyl. The images are printed with a high end UV printer, using UV-LED light to dry the permanent ink on the side without audio on which the image is printed. This combination of one-sided audio and the UV print (on the side without audio) combines the best of both worlds: perfect audio and a beautiful image to enjoy.
Earlier this month, Pink Floyd released 18 concert recordings from 1973 on streaming services. The shows cover the period immediately after the release of The Dark Side Of The Moon, spanning March-November of that year. The shows can be found in the “compilations” section of the band’s discography on Spotify.
