Quality:
  • Ex - with hiss -PATRICK
Comments: These tracks are from the same source as Dark Side Of The Pig. Pigs (3 Different Ones) is on the CD but does not appear on the cover. Brain Damage and Eclipse don't seem to be from these concerts but from one of the 74/75 tour -PATRICK


Has ticks and pops so I assume it was mastered from vinyl. Pigs (3 diff. ones) is not listed on the sleeve. There is quite a lot of hiss throughout the recording. Not the best recording of the 1977 tour, and not recommended. -ANON


The sound quality at the beginning of the CD is extremely poor, a lot of background noise and tape hiss. POTW can be identified, but it is a pain to listen to! SOYCD sounds much better, and is quite enjoyable. Brain Damage is conceptually the best I have heard, a duet by RW and DG (RW singing the main melody, while DG sings the 'alto/tenor'-part).
