  Wish You Were Here 50 gives fans an exciting new perspective into one of Pink Floyds most iconic and best-loved records.

  Featuring “Shine On You Crazy Diamond”, the hypnotic “Welcome To The Machine”, the scathing “Have a Cigar”, and the essential title track, Wish You Were Here is undoubtedly one of the most important album releases in the history of popular music.
