“Ever since my dad brainwashed me as a kid by playing The Dark Side of the Moon on repeat, Pink Floyd has been my favourite band. They are my “Beatles", deeply ingrained in my musical DNA. I first saw Pompeii in a grainy print at a local cinema. It made an incredible impression on me with its untethered and exploratory rock music made by four musicians that seemed to epitomise the notion of intellectual cool. It was an honour to remix the soundtrack to accompany Lana Topham's incredible restoration of the film, which looks like it could've been filmed yesterday.”

– Steven Wilson

Pink Floyd at Pompeii is a 1972 concert film directed by Adrian Maben featuring Pink Floyd performing at the ancient Roman amphitheatre in Pompeii, Italy. The band performs a blistering live set to an empty stadium, aside from themselves and the crew. The main footage is filmed in and around the amphitheatre over four days in October 1971. The film was re-released in 1974 with additional studio material of the band working on The Dark Side of the Moon, along with interviews at Abbey Road Studios.

Pink Floyd at Pompeii – MCMLXXII is an incredible document of a band on the cusp of superstardom. The film has been restored from the original 35mm cut negative from 1972 in 4K - meaning the scan is direct from the film that was rolling in the cameras on that hot day in Pompeii.

On the audio side renowned producer/musician Steven Wilson has overseen the audio and film mixes including Dolby Atmos – this is the first time he has worked on the band’s catalog. Steven has made it no secret his favorite band of all time is Pink Floyd (see quote above), and we know fans are going to love this.

This film has never been upgraded to this quality and it’s the first time it’s ever been on vinyl or in Dolby Atmos, with incredible new artwork. The package also includes a previously unreleased longer version of “A Saucerful of Secrets.”
