Pink Floyd
"On Your Mark - Re-Mastered"
Copenhagen, Denmark 23rd Sept 1971

This is a very nice show, with very clear sound. Fantastic 1st generation reel! This beauty comes from the 1st generation Reel-to-Reel Scotch 207, recorded at 7 1/2 ips. The result is truly a beautiful recording, clean and crisp with no sign of bad ageing. The recording itself is 101m and has the "birdy" intro. The sound quality is a solid Ex-, good performance. Note that STC still cuts early, AHM is still incomplete. Other than that, this is the definitive edition so far. (Notes from Luis).

Atom Heart Mother is quite short on this recording because it fades into the piece half way through, and it suffers a little on sound quality in places, despite this it is still quite an interesting version. On Disc 2 there is a tight performance of A Saucerful Of Secrets, concluding with a typical slow Blues instrumental.
