PInk Floyd/Animals 2018 mixCD, Vinyl, Box Set, Blu-ray
The deluxe edition of Pink Floyd’sAnimals reissue is out this week. It’s a CD+blu-ray+DVD+LP set. The duplication of blu-ray and DVD feels a little bit ‘2018’ which makes sense because that’s when this was conceived. A reminder that you can still order the blu-ray audio edition directly from SDE.
This follow up to Mark Knopler’sThe Studio Albums 1996-2007 includes the albums Get Lucky (2009), Privateering (2012), Tracker (2015) and Down The Road Wherever (2018). It comes with a pretty generous bonus CD of studio B-sides and bonus tracks, which includes two previously unreleased songs. Here’s the full list, although be aware the 9LP vinyl version only has 8 of the 18 (indicated by *).
1. Back In The Day* – Previously unreleased
2. Precious Voice From Heaven* –Previously unreleased
3. Occupation Blues*
4. River Of Grog*
5. Follow The Ribbon*
6. Your Perfect Song*
7. .38 Special
8. My Heart Has Never Changed
9. Terminal Of Tribute To
10. Heart Of Oak
11. Time Will End All Sorrow
12. Oklahoma Ponies
13. Rear View Mirror*
14. Pale Imitation*
15. Drovers’ Road
16. Every Heart In The Room
17. Don’t Suck Me In
18. Sky And Water
The CDs come in card sleeves and are housed in a clamshell box, with five art cards. Audio has been overseen by original mastering engineer Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering. If you are wondering why it’s six discs it’s because Privateering is spread over two CDs.
The remortgage-your-house 9LP version (four 2LP sets + bonus LP) is pressed on 180g black vinyl and comes with five embossed art prints of each album cover.
