2007, Capitol

Seems like a phishing scheme: packaging the same mastering of an album twice in the same package?

Granted, the first disc is in mono, the second in stereo, but it still seems phishy.

The mastering isn’t even that good; I’d rather stick with the vinyl rip from an original 1967 pressing that I have. The third disc is the same as the disc I reviewed last week: very little new material. It’s always nice for Pink Floyd fans to see an excellent album like this reissued, but this packaging is a damn bloated.
