Pink Floyd releases a 20th Anniversary Edition of The Division Bell, the band's 1994 multi-million selling album. 'The Division Bell' was the last studio album to be released by the band: David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright.

The Deluxe Collector's Edition box includes a Blu-ray disc which features 5.1 audio mix of the album plus a new video for Marooned, the track that won a Grammy for "Best Rock Instrumental" in 1994.

"The Division Bell wasn't just a return to Pink Floyd's earlier, more free-flowing psych-rock songcraft. Released 20 years ago on March 28, 1994, the project also marked Floyd's last truly collaborative moment, as remaining members David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Rick Wright rekindled something that appeared lost with Roger Waters' departure.

"Populated by long keyboard moments, these echoing, sustained guitar chords and segmented song-cycles effortlessly flowing into one another, "The Division Bell" plays like a long, slow exhale after the Waters-era novelization of Floyd on albums like "The Wall" and "The Final Cut". If the songs often weren't as narratively strong, the music itself portrayed a renewed sense of musical camaraderie...

"Named for the bell that rings in the houses of Parliament to summon members for a vote, ‘The Division Bell’ started in an appropriate enough manner: With Gilmour, Mason and Wright sorting through ideas in loose jam sessions. Eventually, they had as many as 65 total pieces of music, before winnowing it down first to 25 or so, and then down to a final running order. “I think that was the best idea,” Wright told MTV at the time. “In the beginning, we went and played for two weeks. So, it really was music straight from Dave, myself and Nick.”

"Lyrics were added through a collaborative effort with Gilmour’s new wife Polly Samson, a published author, while the production team included long-time Floyd collaborators like producer Bob Ezrin and saxophonist Dick Perry. The multi-platinum ‘The Division Bell’ topped the charts in both the U.S. and U.K.. A huge world-wide tour followed, as did a Grammy award for the instrumental “Marooned.”"
