Wish You Were Here

~ Release group by Pink Floyd

Annotation

A DiscID observation: 7_0c1HUOtL94MTSdKJWc_OENTWo-

This is the EMI Europe DiscID. First appeared in EMI SWINDON in 1984 and then lasted 20 years all round EMI Europe...

Pink Floyd Archives points out that it is not the Doug Sax 1992 remastered edition on the the 1990s European CDs. I own this 1994 UDEN "remaster" and this much older 1984 Harvest CD which has the exact same 7_0c1HUOtL94MTSdKJWc_OENTWo- DiscID. So holds exact same music. Not actually a "remaster" at all! (Unless they remastered to exact same times and only made one small difference in the AcoustID of Welcome to the Machine)

That same discID is still popping up in Dutch MediaMotion CDs in the 2000s and likely survived the same until the 2011 "remasters". A good example how EMI Swindon and UDEN share masters. (And how it is almost certain that most of the 33 disc IDs attached to many of these releases are bogus)

A scroll through and you can find unique Japanese, German and South African pressings. Apart from those there is a lot of junk... If you are reading this, and own a Wish You Were Here CD, then please add a note about it in the Annotation of your release. Thanks.
