Digital Booklet

Released to mark the 40th anniversary of Pink Floyd's legendary Wish You Were Here, this album features the London Orion Orchestra performing a symphonic interpretation of the album, recorded at Abbey Road Studios where Pink Floyd did the original. From the world of rock, keyboardist Rick Wakeman and singer Alice Cooper kick things off with the vocal version of Wish You Were Here, while guitarists Stephen McElroy (Steve Mac) and Dave Fowler from tribute band the Australian Pink Floyd Show bring their best Floydian fretwork to the instrumental version. For good measure, the album programme concludes with Eclipse taken from another iconic Floyd album, Dark Side of the Moon.
