Can you identify this version of Wish You Were Here? Dennis Murphy put a segment of it on his demo tracks. It's track 8.

I have 2 copies of Dark Side (original vinyl rip @ 24/96 and remaster cd 16/44) and 2 versions of Meddle (cd 16/44 and 1971 Japan vinyl rip in wav file that is phenomenal!). I also have Meddle through The Wall on vinyl when I want it to sound even better. Really can't have too much Pink Floyd.  :thumb:

My total of 4 versions of PF WYWH includes 2 I just ordered and I think I will not bother looking for the 'perfect' sounding version anymore...I think 4
 versions is enough.
My wife thinks I am crazy,just having 2 of the same title,yet alone 4,but she doesn't 'get it' when it comes to music.H50

2 maximum, if you include Tidal plus a CD.

For me it's Band on The Run.

Regular CD
25th Anniversary CD
Deluxe Box with the book
DTS surround version
AND the DCC Gold CD

I enjoy all of them too, except for the regular CD edition which I never listen to.  The DCC gets the most plays.

If we're talking about Pink Floyd only, then Dark Side is the only one I have multiple copies of (regular CD and SACD with surround).

I'm a little obsessive and have 13 digital versions of Dark Side Of The Moon:
Plus 1972 Alan Parson previously unreleased tracks and 1974 Wembley live.

I only have 6 versions of Wish You Were Here and 5 of Animals and The Wall.

I real dont understand how yous dont have the PF entire collection...
I own 3 complete collections :
The original releases in CD,  awful harsh sound yet with vinyl Mastering.
Two remastered CD versions and all the SACD released titles that are what worth tô listen.

I only have the original well worn vinyl and 1 digital version of each album but have always been a big fan.

Super fans can fill in their collections with 18 new Pink Floyd albums at HD Tracks (https://www.hdtracks.com/?trk_msg=8IT6GRUKN4AKBCNUBFFJOVAMUG&trk_contact=MTVB4LCFH9NBKJMNFN8MJH1CAC&trk_sid=QVL0SEIT5DNKFNLQERBSSMJDUK&trk_link=BOJ0I22AVN5KT7SME1MIIMF8GK&utm_source=listrak&utm_medium=email&utm_term=https%3a%2f%2fwww.hdtracks.com%2f%23%2fcategory%2f639b780f80f9e0006e8894fc&utm_campaign=New+Pink+Floyd%2c+Zappa%2c+Eddie+Money%2c+More+%7c+Sales+Up+To+30%25+Off#/category/639b780f80f9e0006e8894fc)!
