Recorded at the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Good audience recording. From the info file: Pink Floyd 1970-11-06 Amsterdam, unknown gen (24bit/96kHz) Pink Floyd Concertgebouw, Amsterdam, Holland 6 November 1970 Lineage: Unknown gen cassettes (TDK SA90) > *Technics RS-B965-M > Focusrite Saffire Pro 14 > Audacity 1.3 > FLAC (24bit/96kHz) xACT used to create FFP *The Technics RS-B965-M is a modified deck - for details see the Tapeheads.net forum 01 Astronomy Domine 02 Fat Old Sun 03 Cymbaline 04 Atom Heart Mother 05 The Embryo 06 Green Is The Colour 07 Careful With That Axe, Eugene 08 Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun 09 A Saucerful Of Secrets Total running time 118 mins 38 secs A mono transfer of Beechwoods' unknown gen cassettes. I recorded in stereo then dropped the weaker left channel on each side to create a mono file. I then slowed down the recording by 10.5% using a speed corrected release by Bert13 as a reference point. These cassettes don't sound as good as my 1st gen to DAT that Littlepieces torrented and are evidently several gens higher, so some of the musical content is more buried. Not a good start as the 1st gen is not particularly strong. They are, however, a good example of the weaker second source. This source has in the past sometimes been joined with the 1st gen to make a more complete recording and been mistakenly identified as being from a different recorder. The second source has more content, most notably before AD but with the exception of the gap between STC and ASOS, where a small section is missing. As with the first source, the tape runs out before the end of ASOS but here it cuts rather than fades. This concert stands out for its interesting opening to AHM and scream-free CWTAE.
