That looks amazing on paper, don't think we can complain it isn't a comprehensive overview of the period, but I think my missus would have a word or two if I spent nigh on £530.00 on a box set. I'm sure the ebay aftersellers are rubbing their hands in glee. Not sure who this is aimed at, certainly no one I know can stump up that kind of cash. Still, nice if you can afford it. (better start doing the lottery then hadn't I :)

Does that mean no psychedelic years Immersion set? I was hoping for something based around the 1st or 1st 2 lps so 65-68 or similar.
This is way out of my budget. Wonder if it will be broken down any smaller at a later date or anything.

And if the post-brexit value of the pound against the dollar continues to fall it'll be even less affordable ha ha.

Aye, we wait years for a proper release of Vegetable Man and they sneak it into such a pricey set (and no doubt - just a theory - a 7" Vegetable Man/Scream Thy Last Scream for RSD which will be equally hard to get hold of)

On 11 November 2016, Pink Floyd will release
‘The Early Years 1965-1972’.

Pink Floyd The Early Years 1965 – 1972:
27 disc boxset with bonus content and memorabilia

The Early Years 1965 - 1972 is a comprehensive 27-disc boxset that sees Pink Floyd delve into their vast music archive to produce a deluxe package that includes 7 individual book-style volumes, featuring much previously unreleased material.

The Early Years box set contains unreleased tracks, BBC Radio Sessions, remixes, outtakes and alternative versions over an incredible 11 hours, 45 mins of audio (made up of 130+ tracks) and live and TV performance in over 14 hours of audio-visual material. The content includes over 20 unreleased songs, more than 7 hours of previously unreleased live audio and over 5 hours of rare concert footage are included, along with 5 meticulously produced 7” singles in replica sleeves, collectable memorabilia, feature films and new sound mixes. Previously unreleased tracks include 1967’s Vegetable Man and In The Beechwoods, which have been mixed for the first time, specially for this release.

The Early Years 1965-1972 will give collectors the opportunity to hear the evolution of the band and witness their part in cultural revolutions from their earliest recordings and studio sessions to the years prior to the release of The Dark Side Of The Moon, one of the biggest selling albums of all time. From the single Arnold Layne to the 20-minute epic Echoes, fans will see the invention of psychedelic progressive rock via an insightful collection that explores the Pink Floyd story from the time Roger Waters, Richard Wright, Nick Mason and Syd Barrett met at London’s Regent Street Polytechnic, through to Syd’s departure and David Gilmour joining to form the iconic lineup.

Each individual book-style package will be released separately early in 2017, except ‘BONUS CONTINU/ATION’ which is exclusive to this box set.

Pink Floyd Cre/ation The Early Years 1967 – 1972:
2CD collection

Set across 2 CDs, the Cre/ation The Early Years 1967 – 1972 highlights set will also be available.
