In 1988 this was the last Pink Floyd album release made with vinyl as its primary medium. A live double vinyl album
recorded in New York over a 5 day performance. The CD version of Pink Floyds Delicate Sound of Thunder comes as a
double CD and the album was released as a double vinyl album.
Other interesting
facts about Delicate Sound of Thunder are that it was the only official Pink Floyd album to be released in Russia
and that the cosmonauts took it onSoyuz TM-7. They left the cassette case behind to save weight and when they played
Delicate Sound of Thunder it was the first rock album to be played in space.

“When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.”
“Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, dont help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight.”
“Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me.
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand
The best I can”
"And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun"
"Long you live and high you fly
Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
All you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.
