Comments from ROIO Database:

Comments: Just another DSoTM RoIO? No, this one - containing one of the very first DSoTM preformances -
is in fact, a historical recording! For example, the instrumentals that form On The Run, The Great Gig
In The Sky and Any Colour You Like are completely different and very interesting. Some tracks are badly
cut: Us And Them is reduced to under three minutes, Time has ben chopped too, and the end of Eclipse is
faded out! However - thanks to the digital nois reduction system NoNOISE - the sound quality is very good;
so listening to this CD is a real pleasure. In my opinion, any collection of Pink Floyd CDs is incomplete
without this. -TAP (#50)

On The Run jam & Great Gig w/preachers. Time abridged at 3.33. Us & Them abridged at 2.18. Mastering -
vinyl. -OSO

A great recording, absolutely no tape hiss evident. Only drawback with this one, is that Time and Us And
Them is cut a bit, and that Eclipse is faded out a little early. -TOR


Excellent sound quality, possibly from the soundboard. This CD presents the pre-release version of Dark Side
of the Moon, which contains the original versions of On the Run and The Great Gig in the Sky. Other compositions
are also slightly different from their Dark Side counterparts. -ECM
