| Recorded at the Gymnasium, State University of New York, Stony Brook, Long Island, NY, USA. Very good audience recording. From the info file: Pink Floyd 1970-04-11 New York, low gen [16-44] Pink Floyd The Gymnasium, State University of New York, Stony Brook, Long Island, New York, USA 11 April 1970 Lineage: Cassette (low) > DAT(1)(44.1kHz) > Tascam DA-20mkII > Coax > Edirol UA-1D > Audacity 2.0.3 > FLAC 44.1kHz xACT used to create MD5 Single FLAC file with cue 01 Audience and tuning up 02 Astronomy Domine 03 Careful With That Axe, Eugene 04 Cymbaline 05 The Amazing Pudding' 06 Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun 07 A Saucerful Of Secrets (cuts) Total running time 84 mins 31 secs A straight transfer from my DAT that I received from Beechwoods. I have included a cue file. This offering is about five seconds longer than it should be as it featured the usual Ummagumma ASOS filler excerpt and I left a small amount intact at the end to demonstrate its presence. The source or somebody in the lineage set their recording levels a bit too high but it doesn't spoil the listening experience. Beechwoods' DAT is hissier and from a different source to the Trademark Moo version of the concert. It is also probably higher gen. If I had a choice of original cassettes to work on I would certainly choose the Trademark Moo copy but the version we all have has been subjected to some processing which can be distracting. This DAT version has the advantage of being quite a lot longer than Trademark Moo but ASOS is still truncated. Listen out for a nice touch from Roger when he introduces Careful With That Axe, Eugene as an 'X certificate instrumental'. Like Crystal Palace 1971-05-15, the taper's comments and those of his main female companion can be amusing. Judging by the intro to ASOS, she helped him with holding the microphone when his arm got tired - nice teamwork. Neonknight, July 2013 |
