  1. For some reason this never turns up where it should i.e. with all the 67-69 radio shows. Here is the transcription.

InterviewerBM: Now meet Roger Waters of Pink Floyd.
Roger your kind of music doesn’t usually find its way into the
charts these days do you find there is still a demand for it.

RogerWaters:Um, recording wise there’s quite a big demand for albums.

INT: Yes

RW: There isn’t a demand for singles. It’s not that kind of market.

INT:Right but you can’t live by records alone. What about the live scene?

RW:Well, so far as we’re concerned most of our live work now is out of england and the live work that we still do in england is at universities and the odd quotes ‘underground club’ that’s still happening. Most of these/those scenes have packed up now.
It was a big thing last year.

INT: How do you, listening to you just now, rehearsing one or two of the things you’re doing,
how do you begin to create these sort of very complex sounds?
Are they built up gradually or…

RW:Um Yes they are built up gradually or not as the case may be some of them are some of them aren’t. It’s very difficult to say it’s you know what works for one number doesn’t work for another.
Just improvise until we hit on something that’s nice.

INT:Yeah. Good.

RW:Then we can reconstruct…

INT: And you have got a relatively new lp on release.

RW:Yes it’s out next week.

INT:Well let’s I see you listed one or two of the numbers on it, Let There Be More Light is on it isn’t it.

RW: Yep

INT:Good here we go.


Pink Floyd – Abbey Road 3, London, June 1969

The second track of three Embryo’s on “June Laying the Embryo” is presented here.

This is just the file which is supposed to be the outtake. The file on the earlier upload has a Windows noise that I had missed. Too many late nights and this was transferred a while ago at another person’s house on another late night.

I am sorry but I do not have the technology here to fix the earlier upload and so apologize for this extra splicing.

JEMS master recording.
This show from the 3rd leg of The Who’s 75-76 North American Tour was recorded
by the ‘S’ in JEMS. It is Keith Moon’s last U.S. performance, and he was in
great form this night, and high in the mix! This show also features a early
‘Who Are You’ improvisation during My Generation. The master tape was missing
about 55 seconds towards the end of Won’t Get Fooled Again (reel change!) This
version includes a patched version, and the orginal incomplete version of Won’t
Get Fooled Again.

Notes:
JEMS master recording and excellent sounding recording. This is the first time(August 2009) a transfer of this recording has been made available directly from the master cassette. All songs are complete with the only cut at the tape flip during the audience cheering between Magic Bus/Amazing Journey.

After about a seven week layoff The Who returned to the stage for the first night of their ‘Worldwind Tour’ which consisted of 2 shows at the Capital Centre just outside Washington D.C. and 2 shows in Florida. Despite being a little rusty this was a great show, as was the following night. This was my first long road trip to see The Who, and this first night I was in the eighth row, on Pete’s side of the stage. This is one of my best Who recordings. I’ve included a couple of photos I took during Sparks this night.

Quality:

Comments:
Sound quality is remarkably good on tracks 1-12, especially for recordings of that era.
Tracks 1-5 also appear on official releases of the John Peel sessions. The first two
Interstellar Overdrive tracks are short studio takes of the intro; the third is an extended
16:46 version; the fourth is a short 2:40 version. Rat Race, at over 11 minutes, is an
excellent track. The sound quality on tracks 13-20 is not quite as good as the rest of the
CD. This CD is highly recommended for any Syd freak or Floydologist. A must have! -ECM

If you are a Syd-o-phile, then yes, you’ll want to buy it. Otherwise, it would probably be
best to leave it sit on the shelf (or in the bin).

This CD more or less has 3 distinct portions. 1) The Peel Sessions – these are the exact
same takes that have appeared on the RoLO of the same name. On LL & OR the quality is
remarkable for these tracks. It would seem that the legal product was used as the master.

Portion 2) Tonight Let’s All Make Love In London Soundtrack – Although named Rat
Race, the first track of this portion is really Nick’s Boogie. Following this track are 4
different versions of Interstellar Overdrive. The first two appear on the official TLAMLIL
soundtrack CD named “Interstellar Overdrive (reprise 1 & 2)” The 3rd IO is the extended
version that appears on the TLAMLIL soundtrack CD for the first time (the 16 minute
version). The 4th IO is the version of the song that appeared on the original vinyl version
of the TLAMLIL that was released following the movie. It’s about 3 minutes in length. The
quality of these recordings varies somewhat. There is more tape hiss than I’d expect if
they’d used the official CD as a master for these tracks. However, I don’t hear any pops
or crackles to indicate a vinyl source. The short version of IO (3 minute version) is slightly
worse quality than the other 3, but they’re pretty close.

Portion 3) Outtakes – The quality here varies immensely. The versions of Lucy Leave and
King Bee that appear here sound exactly like the versions on A Saucerful Of Outtakes.
I’d go so far as to say that one of the two copied the other. There are several songs that
appear here (ie: Word Song and Birdie Hop, possibly others) which have surfaced on
Opel, but stupidly the copies presented on this disk weren’t lifted from Opel. Instead, they
chose some vinyl source. Also, a few of the songs (Dominoes and Milky Way especially)
seem to be presented at the wrong speed! Anyone with facilities to produce a CD should
have equipment enough to present their recordings at the proper speed. There’s a
wonderful version of Long Gone on this disk, but, stupidly, it is faded out before the
end of the tune! I believe that the whole version appears on the vinyl RoIO “Vegetable
Man”. It really upset me to learn that it was mutilated for this CD. Swan Lee (or Untitled
Instrumental #1 from Vegetable Man) is presented here in its entirety (unlike on A Saucerful
of Outtakes, where they faded it out about half way through..) Damn good song.

If you are able to buy this disk (serial number DIYE 16) and Syd Barrett’s Last Screams
(DIYE 15), you’ll be happy to notice there there is no repeated material. If you buy these
as well as Syd’s official albums, you’ll have a pretty good overview of his career. -SCOTT

Recently, a copy of the RoIO Lucy Leave & Other Rarities was found containing music
thought to be from the Glen Miller Orchestra, rather that the expected Syd Barrett.
Otherwise, it was intact (with correct liner notes & picture of Syd on the disk.) -SCOTT

Notes: From a “millionth generation” cassette bought in Argentina some 17 years ago by our friend Alejandro. For some reason this recording has not been heavily circulated, and is shrouded in mystery. We have no legitimate doubts as to the authenticity of this recording. It appears to be from a working set of demo tapes that were used as the actual blueprint for The Final Cut -the last album that Pink Floyd would release with Roger Waters in the lineup. In some places the difference between this and the actual release are subtle, and in other places, the differences are quite stark, changing the overall tone of some of the meanings inferred from the actual release. We won’t be listing all of the differences here, so you can enjoy your own personal exploration of this work in progress.

Free Range Pigs is releasing this volume for it’s historical significance. While the sound quality is not “disappointing”, the recording does “show it’s age” in some places. We’re not exactly sure, but it sounds as though this was recorded in a professional studio, so it is very likely that somewhere in this big world, a sonically superior copy exists.
