Product Description
“Wish You Were Here”, released in September 1975, was the follow up album to the globally successful “The Dark Side Of The Moon” and is cited by many fans, as well as band members Richard Wright and David Gilmour, as their favourite Pink Floyd album. On release it went straight to Number One in both the UK and the US and topped the charts in many other countries around the world. This programme tells the story of the making of this landmark release through new interviews with Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason and archive interviews with the late Richard Wright. Also featured are sleeve designer Storm Thorgerson, guest vocalist Roy Harper, front cover “burning man” Ronnie Rondell and others involved in the creation of the album. In addition, original recording engineer Brian Humphries revisits the master tapes at Abbey Road Studios to illustrate aspects of the songs’ construction.

Bonus Features:
The DVD and Blu-ray contain additional bonus material not featured in the TV broadcast version, including further interviews with Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason plus Roger Waters and David Gilmour performing excerpts from the “Wish You Were Here” album.

It's like the 5.1 version of The Wall that's coming out later. I think they hold this stuff back on purpose knowing the completists will have to have it.

Really enjoyed the disc. For the first time, I see the very sad photograph of Syd at the studio which now truly explains why Roger and David had a very tearful experience.

But in retrospect I was glad to know that Syd did get better (at least physically) when he moved back in with his family for the proper care and a family's love.
