| Recorded at the Paramount Studios, Los Angeles, CA, USA. Very good recording of the band rehearsing for The Wall shows. From the info file: Pink Floyd The Wall Rehearsals Paramount Studios February 1, 1980 This is a new transfer from cassette of the tape we have all come to love. The sloppiness, the arguing ('Dave, why did you stop?' 'I didn't stop, Nick did' 'Well why did he stop' 'I don't know why he stopped, ask him' 'We must never stop'), the technical SNAFUs ('I can't hear any piano in my cans' 'James there's no click track in the cans'). How can you not love this tape? The reason for the new transfer is that the version available on Roio CD is a single CD that clocks in at 78 minutes. This is from a cassette that was full up. After speed correction this version runs 90:17. I think all that qas cut is some of the 2 spots where the TV goe on for a few minutes, but I though I'd offer a complete version for whomever might want it. I know everyone out there is a completest freak, so here you go. There was a hell of a lot of noise on this tape, some stemming from the original master being a normal bias cassette, most from however many generations of tape this went through before getting to me. I used noise reduction on this, but tried to be careful. Didn't take it all off, because it really hurt the music. There are a few artifacts from the NR, but I personally can deal with them better than that wall of hiss (no pun intended). There is an unusual squeak in the background of side 1 of the tape, kind of a tone running through the thing, that I couldn't remove, because it is not consistent. Starts off at the beginning as one note, and by the end its several notes lower. If it were consistently one note I could use a notch filter to get rid of it, but its not, so it stayed. Also, sector boundaries on this set are NOT fixed, because this runs too long for a CD. If you want to burn it it will have to be made into 2 CDs and SBE's fixed for each. You're on your own. Thanks to Quentin1840 yet again for the source tape. Perhaps you can put some towels in that closet pretty soon. 01 The Thin Ice 02 Another Brick In The Wall Part 1 03 The Happiest Days Of Our Lives 04 Another Brick In The Wall Part 2 05 Mother 06 Goodbye Blue Sky 07 A Few More Bricks 08 What Shall We Do Now 09 Young Lust 10 One Of My Turns 11 Stop Building The Wall 12 The Last Few Bricks 13 Goodbye Cruel World 14 Hey You 15 Don't Start The Tape 16 Is There Anybody Out There 17 Nobody Home 18 What's On TV? 19 Vera 20 Bring The Boys Back Home 21 Comfortably Numb 22 The Show Must Go On As with nearly everything I post/share, do not sell, but feel welcome to convert anything I post/share to any format you like, lossy or otherwise, and feel free to share/trade it that way. Spread the music as much as possible, in any format possible. Music should be free and for everyone to enjoy as they see fit. If a person is completely satisfied with an Mp3, then they should be allowed to get it that way. All music should exist in all available formats, be it lossless, lossy, phone files (well maybe not phone files), or whatever. The more formats the more people will be exposed to the variety of music out there, and that's a good thing no matter how you slice it. Just make sure everyone knows what they're getting. |
