Release Notes: An interesting set of circumstances led up to the release of this recording. To my knowledge, no other audio sources of this show have surfaced before today, however, according to some trading lists we’ve seen, there are two(!) audience-shot video tapes of this show.
Many thanks are owed to David Dyte (Get It On Productions) who made this tape available to Free Range Pigs for remastering and release. David’s story follows:
“I was visiting a friend who is more or less of an ex-Floyd fan. He still likes the music, but much prefers the Indie stuff nowadays. But in years gone by, it turns out he was quite a taper. He handed me a drawer full of assorted tapes to look through, mostly traded for, but a few of his own making. Lo and behold, here’s a tape of Pink Floyd at Madison Square Garden in 1987.”
“He said, ‘Did I do that? Wow! I forgot all about this. I’ll look for the master tape. It should be in another drawer with the rest.’ Well, he could not locate the box full of masters from his arena gig taping days, but this tape was made from the master immediately – the first and only time the master was played.”
