| Recorded at the Cow Palace, Daly City, CA, USA. Very good audience recording. From the info files: Roughcut's notes: PINK FLOYD Cow Palace Daly City, CA 13 April 1975 Recorded from the audience incomplete recorder 2 1st generation cassettes > Sony TC- WE475 > Magix Audio Cleaning Lab > SB X-Fi PLATINUM > TLH > FLAC Probably recorder 2. A very nice recording, may need work.Raw transfer,released as two long tracks.Sorry, no azimuth adjustment available on the Sony TC- WE475.Feel free to remaster. This recording has the same lineage as the 10 May 1977 tape. Since I had no information about the recording I had it miss labled on my trading lists during the 80's and early 90's. On the database I believe this recording is listed as April 13th so I'm using that date as well. The taper, who gave me both recordings as a gift, chose to use only two 90 minute cassettes. On the first tape was the 55 minute Animals set, then the first part of this 1975 show. Cassette 2 picks up where that one ends and contains a full 90 minutes of music. The 2 files in the torrent are set up that way. There is a strange deffect on cassette 2. It is a dropout which appears early in the DSOTM set, then again later, but seems to be in the same place within the tape itself. Pretty sure the cassette came to me that way, I don't think it's damaged, not sure how it could happen like that. Known cuts are the very end of the DSOTM set, the beginning of Echoes and a big chunk of the ending. All the fades, ect., are on my copy.There may have been reasons why the taper chose to present his gift this way, with 2 partial shows, we will never know. I would like to take this time to thank Dave B. again for mentioning that I was a collector, making the arrangements with the taper and then bringing the recordings back to Southern California. I would also like to sincerely thank the taper for this unsolicited gift. I have had this recording for 24 years and I have always been impressed that this person saw and taped Pink Floyd at least twice and was extremely generous in passing the recordings along to me. I can not say loudly enough, THANK YOU !!! buffalofloyd's notes: Pink Floyd '1st gen' 1975.04.13 The Cow Palace, Daly City, California original source/lineage: Recorder 3 / cass[1] > Sony TC- WE475 > SB X-Fi Platinum > TLH > flac new source/lineage: Recorder 3 / cass[1] > Sony TC- WE475 > SB X-Fi Platinum > TLH > flac > wav > Adobe Audition 3.0 (minor editing, speed/pitch correction) > cd wav (tracking) > dBpoweramp > flac VG+ Tracks: 101 - Raving and Drooling [13:20] 102 - You've Gotta Be Crazy [14:02] 103 - Shine On You Crazy Diamond [I-V] [12:56] 104 - Have A Cigar [5:33] 105 - Shine On You Crazy Diamond [VI-IX] [12:26] 201 - Speak to Me [4:04] 202 - Breathe [2:45] 203 - On the Run [4:46] 204 - Time [5:18] 205 - Breathe [Reprise] [1:04] 206 - The Great Gig in the Sky [7:24] 207 - Money [9:22] 208 - Us and Them [7:16] 209 - Any Colour You Like [8:48] 210 - Brain Damage [3:46] 211 - Eclipse [cut] [1:13] 212 - Echoes [14:43] total time: 128:45 notes: First off a big thanks to Roughcut for giving us this 3rd recorder from his 1st gen tapes. I took the liberty after listening to this to fix it up for myself and figured I'd share my little bit of work. For those of you that don't know, this tape ran a little slow and had tape flips and a few other anomolies. All I did to this was a minor speed/pitch correction which I think turned out very good and I re-indexed it. There were also a couple of tape flips that I was able to repair in a way where the music is seemless even though the sound quality changes a little bit due to the flip. Overall I am very happy with the outcome and it's much more fluent to listen to and hopefully you will think so as well. Absolutely no music is lost here. The fades between some tracks was a result of the taper doing this when he made Roughcut's 1st gens. I did not want to get into a discussion about the validity of Echoes being from this date, the 12th, or from some completely other date. I will say that all of this recorder ran slow at the same amount but Echoes seemed to be perfect speed and pitch the way it was, I did nothing to it. Take that bit of info and do with it what you will. -buffalofloyd 2011-09-26 |
