Pink Floyd jsou nepochybně jednou z nejzásadnějších skupin hudební historie. Jejich experimentální rocková muzika ovlivnila miliony posluchačů a inspirovala několik generací hudebníků. Vždy je zdobil pro-gresivní přístup při hledání novych možností, kladli důraz na koncepční propojení zvuku s obrazem. Měli jedinečné nápady a pořádali originální vypravné koncerty. Od roku 1964, kdy vznikli, natočili čtrnáct studio-vych alb. Těžko hledat slavnější art-rockovou skupinu!
Skupina připravila vypravny komplet The Early Years 1965-1972, obsáhly soubor nahrávek zahrnující nevydané demosnímky, televizní vystoupení, živé záznamy i další archiválie z uvedeného období. Sběratel-ská lahůdka nabízí na deseti CD, devíti Blu-ray discích, jedenácti DVD a pěti sedmipalcovych vinylovych sin-glech především přes dvacet nevydanych písní včetně Vegetable Man a In The Beechwoods z roku 1967, přemíchané a předělané verze skladeb z filmu Zabriskie Point z roku 1970, sedm hodin dříve nezveřejně-nych živych audio nahrávek, více než patnáct hodin video záznamů raritních koncertních vystoupení a roz-hovorů, tři celovečerní filmy... Jde o jedinečny pohled na ranou tvorbu jedné z nejdůležitějších hudebních skupin všech dob, o příležitost slyšet, jak se měnila tvář kapely od singlu Arnold Layne k dvacetiminutové-mu epickému kusu Echoes. The Early Years 1965-1972 detailním způsobem mapuje, jak se vyvíjela cesta Pink Floyd od setkání Rogera Waterse, Richarda Wrighta, Nicka Masona a Syda Barretta v londynské Regent Street Polytechnic přes odchod Syda Barretta a okamžik, kdy se ke skupině připojil David Gilmour, až do období před vznikem zásadní desky The Dark Side Of The Moon. Zároveň s boxem vychází také 2CD The Early Years – CRE/ATION obsahující sedmadvacet vybranych nahrávek.
