Get
To Know (Australian TV) Pink Floyd's only visit to Australia
in the 70s, consisting of just two shows, was captured on
film ar their second show at Randwick Racecourse in Sydney.
The extract in cirulation was shot in daylight and features
>>Careful With That Axe, Eugene<< with music dubbed from
"Ummagumma". A pre-recorded band-interview was also shown
at the time of broadcast but remains in the vaults.
Comments from Yeeshkul Forum:
I don`t see anyone else commenting on this, but I think
it should be pointed out that the audio on the two live
clips is dubbed on from "Ummagumma" and "A Saucerful Of
Secrets" respectively. - Dallasman
The reason why is that the ABC (Australian Broadcasting
Corporation) was allowed to either record video or audio
material of the Sydney Randwick Racecourse concert. They
chose the visuals, thus added the audio from the live Ummagumma
LP. - mev70
Also, it is the complete broadcast. The GTK (Get To Know)
program was only ever about 10 minutes long, and featured
a different band for every programme. The interview segment
is one of the very few times the 4 members of the band were
interviewed together.
This really is a very nice video -
sound is superb; video slightly less so, but definitely
a real must have. I was so chuffed when I first got a copy
of this. If an upgrade is out there it sure would be great
to see it shared here! - beechwoods
