Oldest bootleg not yet commercially released by Pink Floyd. Some Pink Floyd databases say that it has terrible sound. That it's not worth listening to....But it is! It's actually not a terrible recording just not a perfect recording. To hear what they were doing live with Syd Barrett as their leader makes this even better. I played it for Rosebud and she said that I should go ahead and post it, just not with her name on it. When I play her any Pink Floyd before Dark Side Of The Moon she's not too interested. She did comment that Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd is much different live than on The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.

At this time I am reading a book called Saucerful Of Secrets The Pink Floyd Odyssey by Nicholas Schaffner. In it he describes arguments between Syd, the rest of the band and the bands management that they should be playing their hit singles. Syd wanted nothing to do with it preferring the Psychedelic Experiments that The Floyd had been playing before being signed. Syd Barrett was in charge then, he wrote the songs, he was the star, he got his way (thank God!). I'm actually re-reading the thing. I am right at the part where Syd is starting to break, which is during a tour with Jimi Hendrix. If you like books about bands I recommend it, I'm re-reading it using bootlegs of each period as reading music. I have a lot of Pink Floyd bootlegs.

  1. Wow! I not only don't think it sounds bad, I love the sound - it's got "the feel of the room" and captures the energy, and slight madness, of those early days. Thanks a ton for sharing this one!

    Also, your notes are cool - I will have to check out that book!!

    2. No worries. It was a neat surprise once I'd figured out what had happened.
