Pink Floyd have announced details of various new releases, starting in September later this year. The ‘Why Pink Floyd?…’ releases form part of the bands’ recent agreement with EMI and will include CDs, DVDs and a brand-new single-album ‘Best Of’ collection.
The first release will be an expanded deluxe and special edition version of Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ on September 26. On November 7, the band will release the new retrospective A Foot In The Door – The Best Of Pink Floyd, along with an expanded edition of “Wish You Were Here”.

The legendary band, who are still one of the most successful and iconic artists of all time, recently signed an agreement with EMI which has allowed the development of a multi-format programme of packages, many containing archive material that has been collated during an extensive process between EMI and Pink Floyd for a range of media formats.
