Classic Rock to publish Floyd 3D cover

Posted November 4, 2009 by Floydian Slip

U.K. magazine Classic Rock will mark the 30th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” when it features the album on a special 3D cover later this month.

“The 30th anniversary of ‘The Wall’ is a major milestone in the history of Pink Floyd and the lives of our readers, so it was only right to celebrate with a cover as mind expanding as their music,” says publisher Chris Ingham.

The cover will features a number of Floydian images such as a flying pig, marching hammers and pyramid. Classic Rock says the cover will be the first high-definition 3D magazine cover published in the U.K.

The issue will include an eight-page article about the album, including previously unpublished behind-the-scenes photos from the making of the 1982 film, “Pink Floyd The Wall.”

The issue will be available Nov. 11 in the U.K., and Dec. 9 in the United States, at stores such as Barnes and Nobles and Borders.

    The cover is indeed amazing,as it states a first for a british magazine..The main article is great too,but as im a Floyd fanatic i may be biased about all this…!

    I really appreciate the ongoing artistic endeavors to preserve classic rock. Pink Floyd have established themselves as a true cultural icon for many years. Well done…..I’ll have to search for the magazine here in Canada.
