Clear Vinyl Vinyl Records Double Vinyl Roger Waters & Igor Stravinsky The 2018 album Igor Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale is the adaptation by Roger Waters cofounder of Pink Floyd on the 1918 sametitled theatrical work. Waters recorded this version with members of the Bridgeh&ton Chamber Music Festival at Bridgeh&ton Presbyterian Church. The original theatre work is one “to be read, played, and danced” by three actors the soldier, the devil, and a narrator and dancers, accompanied by a septet of instruments. The libretto relates the parable of a soldier who trades his fiddle to the devil in return for unlimited economic gain. The music is scored for a septet of violin, double bass, clarinet, bassoon, cornet or trumpet, trombone, and percussion. The libretto is adapted by Roger Waters from the translation by Michael Flanders and Kitty Black, based on the original text by CharlesFerdinand Ramus. The Soldier’s Tale is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl. The vinyl package includes 2 printed innersleeves with lyrics and pictures.

Official Clear Vinyl

See the music. Clear vinyl editions showcase the beauty of the record itself, often used for exclusive or special releases. Collectable, modern, and a striking addition to any turntable.

Official Double Vinyl

Twice the wax, double the depth. Double LPs spread music across two records to preserve sound quality and include bonus tracks, alternate takes, or extended mixes. A premium choice for albums that deserve more space to breathe.

Official Heavyweight LP

Pressed on thicker, higher-grade vinyl — often 180 grams — for improved durability and fidelity. Heavyweight LPs reduce surface noise and deliver a deeper, more stable sound, making them a preferred choice for serious listeners.
