Pink Floyd Vinyl replica CD's Difference in recording??

Posted by: Mickyblueyes on 03 June 2008

As per the title really.

I have various albums of theirs but am looking to buy the Division Bell and this has the option of both normal & Vinyl replica CD's. Could someone give me a clue to the differences please.

TIA

I'm pretty sure that the replicas are not remastered, just repackaged.

The "Oh, by the way" boxset of replicas was slated on PF fora as plain greed, with nothing new at all.

Its just the packaging AFAICT.

So when you say repackaged, is that the sleeve info etc.

I have also read/heard somewhere DG is re releasing Div Bell, Momentry Lapse, remastered. Is there any truth in it?

Its EXACTLY the lp sleeve, but CD sized.
Not heard about TDB / AMLOR reissues, I'll check out the Floyd Nerd sites and get back to you.

Nothing seen about the re-mastering; does not mean it won't happen, but nowt on the Floydnerd sites.
