On Sept. 28, Pink Floyd Records will issue 2011’s “A Foot in the Door — The Best of Pink Floyd” for the first time on vinyl.
The 16-track compilation will become a 2-LP set pressed onto heavyweight 180-gram vinyl.
It’ll include a gate-fold outer sleeve and two printed inner bags. The original sleeve design by the late Storm Thorgerson has been revised by Hipgnosis cohorts Aubrey Powell and Peter Curzon to include alternate versions of the photos used on the original CD.
Originally released as part of the band’s 2011 “Why Pink Floyd?” reissue campaign, “A Foot in the Door” includes tracks from “The Dark Side of the Moon” (1973), “Wish You Were Here” (1975), “The Wall” (1979), “The Final Cut” (1983), “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” (1987), “The Division Bell” (1994), and the early ’67 single “See Emily Play.”
All tracks have been re-mastered for vinyl by long-time Floyd associate James Guthrie working with Joel Plante; with lacquers cut by Bernie Grundman of Grundman Mastering in Los Angeles, Calif.
This vinyl pressing of the album will feature the full version of “Time,” restoring the ringing alarm clocks at the start of the track, which were omitted on the CD release.

Posted July 9, 2018 by Floydian Slip
P-Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band from Dalarna, Sweden, has won our 8th Annual Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest.
The group took the prize with its lounge-styled recording of “Shine on You Crazy Diamond.”
Formed in 1993 by guitarist Jan Stumsner, the group has sold-out concert halls in Sweden and Scandinavia. Its 2016 shows at Dalhalla earned the band “Live Act of the Year” at the Dalecarlia Music Awards.
This past week, P-Floyd had their winning entry played on “Floydian Slip” episode #1160 — a special episode of our weekly Floyd radio show that was devoted entirely to other bands’ recordings of Floyd music.
The group also receives $200 in merchandise from the official webstore of Pink Floyd, shop.pinkfloyd.com.
Thanks to everyone who submitted entries to this year’s contest. We had an impressive and diverse collection of tracks to choose from.
Watch for details on our 9th annual contest, announcing in Spring 2019.
