Following the release of his concert film Roger Waters: The Wall, the former Pink Floyd bassist has now revealed plans for a "super deluxe edition" of the recent project.
Roger Waters The Wall: The Super Deluxe Edition, slated to ship out in early 2016 via Water's personal website, boasts extravagant packaging, detailed with hand-crafted graphics. When opened to its full capacity, the graphics unfold to over five feet. Exclusively available inside the deluxe set, fans can uncover the film's score composed by Waters as well as the soundtrack, which spans a total of four LPs. All four 180-gram colored vinyls are adorned with individual engravings, according to Waters' website.
The box set further includes a a trio of Blu-Ray discs containing the film in its entirety as well as a two-CD set containing the soundtrack. Chock full of bundles of bonus material, the set offers a Q&A with Waters and his former Pink Floyd bandmate and drummer Nick Mason, a new documentary, and footage from Waters' 2011 gig alongside Mason and guitarist David Gilmour, as UltimateClassicRock notes.
Along with a plethora of audio and visual material, the super deluxe edition of The Wall treats fans to a 170-page, hardbound book, including live photos taken during The Wall tour as well as those taken backstage. A download code will also be made available to deluxe box set owners, which boasts multiple digital sountrack files.
Although the box set won't release until next year, Waters made it a point to guarantee prospective holiday gift buyers that they will have something solid to give to their loved ones. Pre-orders feature a "special hardcover save-the-date folio that contains two art prints," ready to ship this November.
Roger Waters The Wall: Super Deluxe Edition is priced at a whopping $500 and is available now on Waters' site for pre-order.
Bonus! Check out the 72-year-old musician teaming up with Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello and The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan for a live rendition of the Pink Floyd classic track "Comfortably Numb."
