Pink Floyd has released another preview of its Nov. 29 box-set “The Later Years.”
Today the group made available on digital and streaming platforms a new mix of “One Slip” from 1987’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason.”
The new version features original Floyd drummer Nick Mason replacing the track’s existing percussion work, which was performed by studio musician Jim Keltner. The new track also has additional keyboard work from the late Rick Wright.
“By returning to some of Richard Wright’s keyboard parts and recording new drum tracks with Nick Mason, producers David Gilmour and Bob Ezrin have restored the creative balance between the three Pink Floyd members,” the group says in a press release.
The new mix of “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” will appear for the first time in 5.1 Surround Sound, remixed by Gilmour and Andy Jackson, on “The Later Years.”
A few days ago the band posted videos of its reunion performance at 2005’s Live 8. Those clips can be found on Floyd’s YouTube channel, but, oddly, will not be part of the upcoming boxset.
