It appears that these being joint Sony / Warner they couldn't use the Harvest label (still owned by EMI/Universal?). The lack of flipbacks doesn't bother me. Anyway first 3 titles have pretty authentic labels. I tried More and found it beat my 70s pressing for sound. Heard good reports of improved sound for the first 2 albums.

Yeh i shortly came to the realisation as to why the Harvest labels did not get used, However As for example the King Crimson re-issues were on a light pink Label that looks very simular to the original Pink Island, id have thought they would have at least made them look similar to Harvest, at least the light green shade.. The back flaps really bother me. Remember the Hollies 'Butterfly' & 'Evolution' Re-Issues put out by Guerssen A few years back, they did a brilliant job with the covers & Flaps. Printing the flaming outlines on the packed. Sound is only half of it with me you see.. It just gets worse [see below link] So if they are omitting the already released ones a bit back! the new catalog numbers will then make no set logic at all imho.I have serious OCD with sets & catalogue numbers already. www.superdeluxeedition.com/news/more-pink-floyd-vinyl-reissues/ |

Agree they should have done proper flip backs. I think cat numbers is the same issue as Harvest labels. Certainly puzzling why they went for blue. These are now in fact independent Floyd releases so connection to the old EMI catalogue is lost.

Cat numbers arnt the same with these issues
Piper - PFRLP1
Saucerful - PFRLP2
More - PFRLP3
Ummagumma - PFRLP4
This is what im saying the three LP's that were released a few years back carry the old Cat Numbers hence these can never be a matching set.

The problem is that PF was still with EMI in 2011 but have moved to Warner Music. Annoying but just not possible. In consolation I think you will like how these sound. They are going to redo DSOTM WYWH and the Wall which will then have new matching cat numbers.
