8-Tracks CD

Consisting of songs from the seventies, 8-Tracks includes the instantly recognizable hits “Money,” “Wish You Were Here,” “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2,” and “Comfortably Numb,” among others. This compilation also includes a full version of “Pigs On The Wing” that had previously only been available on 1977’s Animals 8-Track cartridge. The track sequence has been edited by Steven Wilson using sound effects sourced from the original multitracks to make for a continuous listening experience in classic Floydian style.

8-Tracks documents the full measure of Pink Floyd’s transition into their breakthrough era, propelled into superstardom throughout the 1970s. The eight-year period this special release celebrates encompasses music from some of the band’s most successful and celebrated records ever. 1971’s Meddle, 1972’s Obscured by Clouds, 1973’s The Dark Side of the Moon, 1975’s Wish You Were Here, 1977’s Animals and 1979’s The Wall. Six monumental, classic albums in their own right. Collectively, it’s a body of work that sees Pink Floyd shifting far beyond the early psychedelic pop Syd Barrett era and their post-experimental output, cementing their global status as one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

8-Tracks offers a brilliant insight into this incredible period of creativity. A starting point for new listeners to discover the depth and breadth of Pink Floyd’s peerless album catalogue, as well as a carefully curated collection for longtime fans to appreciate.
