comments:
a pretty nice show and maybe not very widely circulated recording.
it does have some problems, including a couple of short silent gaps,
but most of it is quite listenable and just a few seconds were missed
for tape flips and deck shutoff before the encore. no idea of what
deck/mikes tape were used for this master, but mine is a 2nd (maybe
even a 1st) generation copy from the master. I got this from the taper,
D.K. I think it was, several years ago in a snail trade. there are
some great sounding Pink Floyd recordings from even earlier than this,
this isn't one of them but the taper made a good recording with what
he had available. I didn't see Pink Floyd like until the Wish You were
Here tour which was a nice treat too, would have liked to see this tour.
it was a nice one.
do not sell this recording.
it can make pink turn to (crimson) red
trade freely and losslessly.
the echoes won't speak to me through mp3's.
Trades Allowed Yes
