Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Pts. 1-9, New Stereo Mix) (2025) [Hi-Res]

As part of the upcoming 50th anniversary reissue of Wish You Were Here, all nine parts of Pink Floyd’s “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” have been released as one continuous 25-minute piece for the first time ever.

Wish You Were Here 50 will arrive on December 12th, and include a number of rarities and bonus material across various formats. Among the highlights is this complete version of “Shine On You Crazy Diamond,” which originally appeared as two halves bookending the classic 1975 album, with Parts I-V as the first track, and Parts VI-IX as the closing track.

“Shine On You Crazy Diamond” was written as a tribute to the band’s original lead singer Syd Barrett, and the recording of the tune took on even more lore when the reclusive Barrett actually visited the band at Abbey Road Studios as the final mixes of the track were taking place.
