4-disc deluxe box • 4LP vinyl set • CD, DVD and blu-ray options

In July 2016 David Gilmour performed two shows in the amphitheatre in Pompeii making him the only performer to play to an audience in the arena since the time of the gladiators, almost 2,000 years ago. As you might expect, a concert film Live At Pompeii was shot (in 4K, by Gavin Elder) and this is being released theatrically in September (“for one night only”) and more pertinently for SDE readers, the whole thing is being issued across five different formats – including as a 2CD+2x blu-ray deluxe box set – later the same month…

The 21-song performance is captured on audio and video and includes songs from throughout David’s career including the title tracks of Rattle That Lock and On An Island and other solo and Pink Floyd classics such as Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb and One Of These Days, the only song that was also performed by Pink Floyd in 1971 for Adrian Maben’s audience-free concert film.


Live at Pompeii deluxe box offers a bonus blu-ray

With the new Live At Pompeii, of the five formats being issued only one combines separate audio CDs with video, and that is the four disc (2CD, 2 x blu-ray) deluxe box set. This also offers an exclusive bonus blu-ray which delivers 65 extra minutes of performance from the same tour (from South America and Poland) and over two hours of documentaries (including the BBC’s 72-minute film David Gilmour: Wider Horizons). As you’d expect the blu-rays offer stereo and surround sound (96/24 PCM Stereo & 96/24 DTS Master Audio).


Live at Pompeii – 4LP vinyl box

Standalone DVD (two discs) and blu-rays (one-disc) are available if you’re not bothered about separate audio, but remember, you don’t get the bonus content on either set. If the opposite is true and you just want the audio, then 2CD and 4LP vinyl sets are available.

The physical editions of Live at Pompeii will be released on 29 September 2017. Below is a selection of pre-order links (only 2CD on Amazon UK right now!).
