Quality:
  • Poor quality, muffled sound and too much noise -TAP (#50)
  • G -HERWIG
  • G mono!! -PIET (ever enjoyed I.O. in mono ????)
Comments: Keep Smiling People is Careful With That Axe, Eugene, and Interstellar Overdrive is close to the original Piper version; in fact, the most interesting thing is to hear Roger instruct one of the crew to "Turn off the spotlight" just before Let There Be More Light! Although historically interesting, this isn't really worth the money you would likely have to spend. EDS' NOTE: The Sept. 1 date is unconfirmed, as the Floyd appear to have played the Fantasio in both the spring and fall of 1968. -TAP (#50)


Back-cover: "Thanks to Marco Tennyson" There is a kinda stamp in Italian and English: "We appologize for the non-exellent quality of the recording, which has been realized with sixties' amateur equipment." -PIET


I really didn't like this RoIO. Very bad sound quality, and some not so interesting songs. Avoid it. -TOR


This is an incomplete and inferior copy of this show. Do not spend money on this cd instead try and get the two complete shows that make up this cd on tape. The shows on tape sound much better albeit slightly more distant. Right now their are no complete shows of this material on cd however. But I feel it would be wise to search out the two complete shows for a better over all enjoyment of this material. - MAD
