David Gilmour
"CastelloRAHzon"
Royal Albert Hall, London, UK
31st May 2006

The last of three nights at the Royal Albert Hall.
This show is known as 'rec2', and is more complete than 'rec1'.

Taper Comments:
Started recording a little bit late so recordinglevel wasn't set correctly.
Speak To Me and beginning of Breathe have been "fixed" in SoundForge by raising the volume up 20+ dB but this resulted in some background noise. Otherwise, this is the raw recording.
There is also a 10 second dropout at the beginning of Breathe caused by adjusting the recordinglevel in the dark.
Otherwise the recording turned out quite good.

This release isn't remastered in any way, its a raw source. It's a complete recording of Dave's performance of the 3rd night of the Royal Albert Hall gigs, and is essential!. The soundquality is similar to "Last Night In London", but with a little more clarity. This RoIO is dedicated to all of the Floyd community which every day brings us new gems and great releases.
