An under-rated gem. Assuming your springing for it, please report back on the magnitude of the improvement, if any, over the existing mastering. Thanks.

Hi scotty,

David's Solo Albums 'Deafinitely' Now August 14th/15th
With many apologies for a further delay, we have now settled on a final date for the reissued, remastered, CDs of David's solo albums David Gilmour (containing Deafinitely) and About Face. The albums are released via EMI in Europe on August 14th and Sony BMG in at least the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand on August 15th.
The CDs have been remastered by Doug Sax of the Mastering Lab and Pink Floyd audio associate James Guthrie respectively, whose dedication to quality extends beyond the mastering to the actual CD pressings. They have been working closely with Sony and EMI to ensure that the actual CD pressings are the best that mass pressing equipment can produce, and the approval process has taken up a little time, hence the delay.
looks like we are getting the same remasters.

Doug Sax works his magic in the USA. As Dave says, a USA sourced disc will almost certainly sound better. I shall order my copy from Tower USA.
