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.
