Pink Floyd featuring Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, Rick Wright and Nick Mason first broke onto the music scene in 1967, with the hit single ‘Arnold Layne’. Despite the departure of Syd Barrett, the group, which now included David Gilmour, recorded some of the most innovative and ground breaking records of the time, culminating in 1973 with one of the biggest selling albums of all time, ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’. There followed numerous global number 1 albums, including, ‘The Wall’, ‘Animals’, ‘Wish You Were Here’, ‘The Final Cut’ and 2014’s finale, ‘The Endless River’.
Pink Floyd Records releases will be manufactured and distributed by Warner Music for the UK and Europe and by Sony Music for North America and the rest of the world.
1972 again saw the band collaborate with "More" filmmaker Barbet Schroeder to create the soundtrack to the film La Vallee, becoming the band's seventh studio album Obscured By Clouds. Recorded at Strawberry Studios in Hérouville, just outside Paris, in a mere two weeks, it shows the group performing as a tight integrated unit.
Pink Floyd's seventh album, Obscured by Clouds, was originally recorded as the soundtrack to the French film La Vallee (the band's second Barbet Schroeder soundtrack following 1969's More), but was also released as a standalone album in 1972 and anchored by the single "Free Four." Also featuring the deep-cut favorite "Wots...Uh the Deal" and breathtaking "Childhood's End," the record is here remastered from the original analog master tapes by Bernie Grundman, James Guthrie, and Joel Plante. Long overdue but finally a reality, this audiophile-grade analog pressing of Obscured by Clouds sounds brilliant.
