Delicate Audio of Thunder is a live anthology past English progressive rock ring Pink Floyd. It was recorded over five nights at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Isle, New York, in August 1988 and mixed at Abbey Route Studios in September 1988. It was released on 22 November 1988, through EMI Records in the United Kingdom and Columbia Records in the The states. The anthology was remixed, restored and reissued in December 2019 for The Later Years 1987–2019 box set. This version included songs that were not present on the original release. In Nov 2020, information technology was given a standalone release.

Release and reissue [edit]

The anthology was released in 1988 every bit a double LP, double cassette, and a double CD, each format containing a slightly different rails list.[vi] The album includes many works from A Momentary Lapse of Reason every bit well as tracks from older Pink Floyd albums.[half dozen] The double LP release did not have "The states and Them" on the track listing. Both the double LP and the double cassette had "Wish You Were Here" between "Another Brick in the Wall (Role 2)" and "Comfortably Numb".[6]

Although David Gilmour stated around the time of its release and on a radio interview in 1992 that the anthology contained no studio overdubbing any, he embellished the tracks during mixing with some extra acoustic guitar on "Comfortably Numb", according to engineer Buford Jones. In addition, some harmonies were replaced by studio re-takes: Richard Wright re-did his vocal on "Time" and Sam Dark-brown replaced Rachel Fury's part in "Comfortably Numb"[7] merely the residual of the album is as performed at the shows.

Forth with A Collection of Great Trip the light fantastic Songs, Fragile Audio of Thunder was reissued on 180g heavyweight vinyl LP in November 2017.[8] Its artwork replicates that of the original 1988 LP release.

An expanded version of the alive anthology was included in The Later Years 1987–2019 box gear up in 2019. Previously unreleased tracks include "Signs of Life," "A New Automobile (Part 1)", "Terminal Frost", "A New Machine (Part 2)", "Welcome to the Car", and "1 Slip". All tracks were remixed for the 2019 reissue.

Commercial performance [edit]

Delicate Sound of Thunder reached #11 on the Billboard 200 and is currently listed as Triple Platinum in U.S. sales — it was certified Gold and Platinum on 23 January 1989 and Triple Platinum in April 1997. In Canada, information technology was #57 in the 1989 year-end chart. [i] In December, 2020, the album re-entered the Billboard album chart at #76 cheers to the sales of the palatial reissue of the album.

Frail Sound of Thunder became the first album to be played in space, when Soviet cosmonauts took information technology aboard Soyuz TM-seven. David Gilmour and Nick Bricklayer attended the mission's launch.[6]
