Harry Joyce's Collection

Pink Floyd   02/25/1971

Großer Saal, Musikhalle, Hamburg, West Germany
Media CDR   2 discs
Notes M-502
Tech Notes If there's any surface noise on this, I can't hear it. May be a little at
the start of disc 2, but this is a non-issue. The original recording does
sound slightly "overdriven"; there is some mild distortion on the loudest
parts of the first set. Also, as i mentioned in the RoIO millionaire
contest, cymbaline fades in around the second verse. There is also a bit
of static in 'green is the color'; this is mic noise caused by the taper,
and is in the original. Overall sound quality is a solid 9 out of 10, with
the only penalty being for the above flaws. ooh... those cymbals!
J-Card Comment M-502 is the matrix number of the original 2-LP vinyl set that was made
in europe sometime in the (late?) 70's. Although there are many different
versions of this show, all of them are sourced from a M-502 vinyl copy.
Some sound better than others, none of them sound anything like this.
(Take Linda Surfin' was a popular one). This 2-CDR set comes from a mint
condition original LP, and has been beautifully remastered by the Digital
Floyd Archives. Not only is this one of the best sounding recordings
(especially of this era), this is one of the best vinyl remastering jobs
I have ever heard.
