Pink Floyd’s concert film Delicate Sound Of Thunder is all set for a home reissue in November – a month after the restored, re-edited and remixed version hits cinemas around the world.

It was recently confirmed that the show – filmed at Long Island’s Nassau Coliseum in 1988 during the band’s tour in support of A Momentary Lapse Of Reason – would hit the silver screen for one night only on October 15.

Now, Warner Music/Sony Music have confirmed that fans will be able to get their hands on it on Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD, 3LP vinyl and a deluxe 4-disc edition with bonus tracks, on November 20.

The new release of Delicate Sound Of Thunder has been taken from the original 35mm negatives and transferred into 4K. It’s been completely re-edited by Benny Trickett under the creative direction of Aubrey Powell from Hipgnosis, while the 5.1 surround sound audio has been remixed by David Gilmour, Andy Jackson and Damon Iddins. 

The home editions will include a 24-page photo booklet, with the 4-disc box set including a 40-page photo book, tour poster and postcards. The 3LP vinyl, which has been pressed on 180g vinyl, will includes eight tracks that weren’t included on the 1988 release. The 2CD edition, meanwhile, also includes the previously missing songs.
