Pink Floyd – Another Wall – Empress Valley


The Empress Valley label have recently released a deeply curated and researched compilation of early takes and studio demos that will complement the official ‘The Wall’ album.

A two disk set packed with umpteen variations and oddities that were cut from the album before it’s eventual release. From the look of the liner notes online (Running in excess of 3 pages long), there has been no stone unturned in ensuring this comp should be the last word in putting this material together.

    Anybody know about the new Derek & The Dominos release called “My Heart is No Longer with You” by Empress Valley & Mid Valley? Apparently there’s at least 2 different versions…a 6CD version & a 1CD version.

    • Thanks Careful Axeman, I’ve seen the D&D release but haven’t seen any set lists just yet. Will do some digging for it however.

    • A copy of this release has also been sent to one of our bases in the US. Look out for the review when the set lands.

  2. Thanks for this very interesting info./news, but I can’t imagine there being anything truly new here that hasn’t already been released before, and I’ve been collecting just about each & every Wall rarity commercially available over all these years. I could turn out to be incorrect, but esp. considering Empress Valley’s rather expensive prices, I seriously doubt that any serious Floyd collectors will actually need this. Maybe I’m just getting tired of spending my $$$ on “The Wall” boots (& official releases as well). If there does turn out to be anything truly new, hopefully a low-budget label such as Eelgrass or Moonchild will promptly release their own inexpensive “versions”…even if they’re just identical copycats.
