well, they are doing a full catalog remaster by James Guthrie
that's what this thread is about

That's what puzzled me as I could only find the exisiting stuff on the amazon link. Mind you, I didn't check every page.

Not sure if this is the edition you are after, but..
http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=656420&ev=rb
These would seem to be for the Toshiba edition of 10 years back, but probably as well to check with the seller first.
S.
The possible problem here is that these could be fakes of the Toshiba edn. They look correct, but 'tis not the same as holding in your hand. I did buy a genuine Principal Edwards Japanese Ed made by Universal from Finland, but that was 6 years ago, Russian Fed and Italy the home of the bootlegger has my alarm bell ringing. Besides they are too cheep
You could be right. Guess with any of these there has to be a certain amount of "Buyer beware" notices.
Thanks nonetheless though.

page 4 : 2008 Import/EMI Europe Generic. So just an import of the original then. I'll certainly look forward to the full catalogue job then.

No executive shaving kit and faux-leather briefcase combo either. Not buying it. Not that I would have done anyway, but still...

It helps to be an angsty 15 year old.
The Wall is great teenage bumout music.
Boring for adults though!

I'll just keep my vinyls thanks.
(I did buy the 5.1 DSOTM almost a decade ago -- think I listened to it ONCE.)
