Quality:
  • Ex+
Comments: Vol. 2 of the concert, Vol. 1 is Black Wizard.


An excellent audience recording, every instrument is "there" all the time, almost as good Smoking Blues, just a notch below. (still sounds as good as Ummagumma ;-))


ASOS is a very 'grating', AHM is a bit too long and not as good as when they do it by themselves (IMHO). The footsteps in Cymbaline are loud and clear. There are no cuts between the tracks, which I really like. The whole cd is half a step down, but you don't really notice it unless you're playing guitar along with it. I haven't heard Live At Montreaux, but I guess this is the same sound quality, etc... Essential listening for any Floyd fan.
