Pink Floyd: The Wall, Live in London Venue: Performed at Earl's Court Date: Wednesday, August 6th, 1980 at 8:00pm This was the 15th 0f 31 Wall concerts, and the third night of six Earls Court Wall performances that ran from August 4th through August 9th, 1980.

TITLE: The Show Must Go On Label: Distributed by Man of Leisure Music (MoLM) www.manofleisuremusic.com, from 1st generation clones of the Master CDRs, first broadcast live on WRPI 91.5 FM 05Aug04. SQ: A/A+ 1st quality audience recording Source Information: It is with a huge amount of gratitude to the taper, who reached out to MoLM and shared this true gem, in a trade for other rare PF roios. The source audio CDs that were broadcast are 1st gen clones of the master discs. The broadcast was recorded back onto a PC and converted to SHN using mkwACT. The original analog recording was made with a Technics single point stereo microphone covered with a black sock and a Sony stereo cassette recorder onto a TDK 120 tape. Somehow, the taper was able to get his gear into the arena with a knapsack! Comments from the taper: 'I was seated to the left of the stage, half way back, and used a Technics Single Point Stereo Microphone with the Sony TC153SD Cassette deck, which was quite a hefty machine in those days. I used the same equipment to record the last Wall show (17Jun81), where I sat right at the back, so that recording was a bit more distant than the August 1980 show.' |
