Comments: If like me the 70/71 tours are your favorites because the band still jam, you won't be diassappointed with this baby. Sound overall is a VG+ pushing Ex audience recording. No bad edits. A nice "Careful ..", to start with is followed by an excellent extended "Fat Old Sun". "Cymbaline" has a long footstep sequence where the only bad stuff occurs with the German audience yelling a fair bit. On balance the crowd is well behaved though. Highlights are the title track (an early version of "Echoes") and a scorching "Saucerful .." where Dave has great fun with his Binsen Echorec. Topped off with "Astronomy Domine" and the imaginatively titled "Blues" (tedious waffle in my opinion), and you have a set that both neophytes and hardcores can enjoy.


The only negative? Spelling the bands name "Pink Foloyd" on the spines!


Highly recommended. -TUZZSTER
