The Later Years 1987-2019 gets digital release, available today!

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by

Wonderful news Pink Floyd fans, a digital version of ‘The Later Years 1987-2019’ has been made available to stream and purchase! The digital version includes the 2019 Remixes of both A Momentary Lapse of Reason and Delicate Sound of Thunder and the 1987-1994 bonus tracks. It looks like Knebworth 1990 is still exclusive to the box set for now.

There hadn’t been any word on individual releases for A Momentary Lapse of Reason and Delicate Sound of Thunder, so this comes as great news to those who only had access to the Highlights so far.
