Delicate
Sound Of Thunder encapsulates a band at their best. Alongside the
classic live album and full concert film (restored and re-edited from
the original 35mm film and enhanced with 5.1 surround sound), included
in The Later Years box set, all stand-alone editions feature 24-page
photo booklets, with the 4-disc box edition including a 40-page photo
booklet, tour poster and postcards. The 3-LP 180-gram vinyl set includes
9 songs not included on the 1988 release of the album, while the 2-CD
includes 8 tracks more than its original release.
In
1987, Pink Floyd made a triumphant resurgence. The legendary British
band, formed in 1967, had suffered the loss of two co-founders:
keyboardist / vocalist Richard Wright, who left after sessions for The
Wall in 1979, and bass player and lyricist Roger Waters, who had left to
go solo in 1985, soon after the 1983 album The Final Cut. The gauntlet
was thus laid down for guitarist/singer David Gilmour and drummer Nick
Mason, who proceeded to create the multi-platinum A Momentary Lapse Of
Reason album, a global chart smash, which also saw the return of Richard
Wright to the fold.
Originally
released in September 1987, A Momentary Lapse Of Reason was quickly
embraced by fans worldwide, who flocked to attend the live tour dates,
which started within days of the album’s release. The tour played to
more than 4.25 million fans over more than two years, and, as a
celebration of the enduring talent and global appeal of David, Nick and
Richard was unsurpassed at the time.
Filmed
at Long Island’s Nassau Coliseum in August 1988 and directed by Wayne
Isham, the 2020 release of the Grammy Award nominated Delicate Sound Of
Thunder is sourced directly from over 100 cans of original 35mm
negatives, painstakingly restored and transferred to 4K, and completely
re-edited by Benny Trickett from the restored and upgraded footage,
under the creative direction of Aubrey Powell/Hipgnosis. Similarly, the
sound was completely remixed from the original multitrack tapes by
longtime Pink Floyd engineer Andy Jackson with David Gilmour, assisted
by Damon Iddins.
Pink
Floyd’s stellar supporting cast for the live dates included: Jon Carin
(Keyboards, Vocals), Tim Renwick (Guitars, Vocals), Guy Pratt (Bass,
Vocals), Gary Wallis (Percussion), Scott Page (Saxophones, Guitar),
Margret Taylor (Backing Vocals), Rachel Fury (Backing Vocals) and Durga
McBroom (Backing Vocals).
Technical
credits include: Film Producers: Curt Marvis and Carl Wyant; Director
of Photography: Marc Reshovsky; Lighting Designer: Marc Brickman, with
conceptual footage directed by Storm Thorgerson, except ‘Money’ directed
by Storm Thorgerson, Barry Chattington and Peter Medak. Animation on
'Time' was by Ian Emes.
The
setlist carefully balances the then-new material from A Momentary Lapse
Of Reason and Pink Floyd classics, including songs from The Dark Side
Of The Moon (Time, On The Run, The Great Gig In The Sky and Us And
Them), the anthemic title track of Wish You Were Here, The Wall's
Comfortably Numb and a cathartic Run Like Hell. Pink Floyd’s Delicate
Sound of Thunder still stands as a record of the creative power of David
Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright at their incendiary best.
