To write a review about this masterpiece of music history, is difficult, because you're constantly looking for superlatives that appreciate this wonderful music at least approximately. Since my youth I got goosebumps when no such music, able to enjoy such a good feeling. It is so perfect that I bear no live or cover them because every sound, every nuance, every little vibration is just perfect and may not be changed, so I feel it. "Wish You Were Here" brings a majestic calm and at the same time a picturesque, haunting beauty in itself, a force, an emotional, creative explosion, it is really indescribable. Unfortunately, it is the last album (to "Division Bell"), on the Richard Wright war.Sein adequately involved in the songwriting and the drafting of the title long underestimated contribution can not be appreciated enough. The floating keyboard, the sounds, Gilmour's guitar playing, the effects, the great melodies .... Pink Floyd create something here that's really hard to create in this force and consequence atmosphere! Who has not heard the album, you should take time for themselves "into listening" possible on a good system. Although Alan Parsons was not here as a sound engineer available, the sound quality is stunning. In particular, on vinyl (I have a pressure from the 80s) are audibility, spaciousness extraordinary. The first CD-series was a big disappointment, on vinyl, a much warmer, more comfortable, softer, more rounded sound. The 94er Remaster (Doug Sax) brought significant improvement (in particular the Sony Gold CD that is based on). The 2011 remaster is different, but not necessarily better.The sound differences are probably Geschmackssache..Zu the SACD is now available, I can not say anything. This music is a gift; to float away and even sounded bathe.
