Comments:
A long, strange trip for this gem. It ended up in our intrepid hero’s hands as the surprise diamond in a trade.
In his own words–
“The person who I received this show from was not able to provide me with any useful information. He actually told me it was from a radio show in 1967 with the songs Astronomy Domine and Green is the Colour among others. There was no artwork, just multi-colored stick on labels with the name Pink Floyd, the letters CWRU, and 1967 on them. When I inquired about the source he just said that he was glad I liked it. Further inquiries were given answers unrelated to the question or not answered at all… Either he was just reluctant to reveal anything or was just unaware of what it was he had.”
So for once we have no lineage information for you. However what we do have is an amazing and complete document of the Floyd in their prime giving us an utterly stunning performance. Of special note is the “jam sessions” mid-song that seems to take place during each track. FOS gets a bit of a Beatlee-sque/Abbey Road type of treatment, Set The Controls is a free for all about half way through, and is that a bow solo ala Jimmy Page during the break during One Of These Days? Careful With That Axe is full of angst and just… well, rocks! Echoes is perfect as well! Finally, we get a rare treat with Blues included for good measure.
As a result of our cleanup efforts there’s great definition of the instruments and you can hear some things that I know I’ve never heard before in these live recordings. These surprises make this one a keeper and a welcome addition to the collection.
Technical Notes:
It looks as though some NR was performed in the past as part of the upper end has been completely removed (from 165000 Hz -22050 Hz).

Rating: VG+
Comments: From a very clean clone of the master cassettes. These tapes are the source for every Bradford release that you have heard. This is a direct transfer from the first generation tapes which date from 1971.
The recording includes all tune-ups and band chatter between tracks. The boys are in a playful mood, as you can tell by their interaction with the audience, which is very quiet during the songs. There is no appreciable hiss. The taper also used 60 minute cassettes, 30 minutes to a side, which is obvious by the breaks.

Notes:
Hi,
Talk about The Who in a time when they were untouchable ! WW12 is The Who at the Liverpool University; Liverpool, U.K.
This show here is high energy show from The Who’s “Who’s Next” tour with plenty of the crowd clapping along, funny stage banter,
and very good performance. The recording itself is kind of bass dominate in some ways but, clear for the most part.
There is some slight tape hiss but overall not too much. I simply fell in love with this recording, I think you will too !
Special thanks to “R.P.” for providing the source to this relative uncirculated recording because recordings like these with decent
sound quality are not too common to come by from this time period.
Now, a very special thanks goes to Eric for providing us with two sets of artwork that you can pick and choose from, there’s a first
edition artwork and then there’s a Union Jack version you can also use for your artwork for the show ! ya-WHO !
Enjoy !

Notes:
1)Quality IS About B/B-(Subjective Of Course).Samples Included.Rough Quality For The most Part.
Mostly For Collectors only!!
2)This Show IS Missing “Magic Bus” And “My generation” According To The who Live Setlist Website.
3)There Is Some Wow And Flutter During “Pure And Easy”.Also,There Is Some “Pitter-Patering” Going On
At Times During The recording.I’m Not Sure If The Source Tape Is Like This.But It Also Sounds Like whoever Taped This Might Have been Taping
During A Rainstorm And Might Have been Holding An Umbrella Over The Tape Deck.
4)Slight Cut During “Baby Don’t Do It”
5)I received This Show Years Ago Doing A Cassette Trade.I Also Did A Torrent Search(Including Dead Torrents)
And This Show Did Not Show Up,So I Decided To Upload This One.

Notes:
Approximate Length: 91m
A good audience recording that came to light in more recent years and was a major upgrade from
the fragmented version that previously existed. The cuts are fairly insignificant.
Many thanks to Siege72.
Siege’s Sound Quality Guide: A good, almost complete audience recording with the bass a good
bit louder than the guitar. I fixed the speed problems (horrific by ‘Magic Bus’) as best I
could.
Siege’s Details: The year’s first U.S. tour opened with a memorable show in rainy weather ó
fortunately this recording is many times better than the more common source, which was recorded
under a tarp and very fragmented. The set is still comprised of mostly new material, but a few
newer songs that were still included at the recent Sheffield show were dropped by this stage.
In their place are ‘My Wife’, the new Entwistle showpiece, and both ‘Can’t Explain’ and
‘Substitute’, the latter inadvertently shortened to barely over a minute here. ‘Bargain’ is
becoming a great live number, despite Townshend trying to “sing” the synthesizer parts, and
‘Behind Blue Eyes’ is already a crowd favorite. Although ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’ had been
used as the set-closer earlier in the year, it’s now moved to the seventh number in the act and
won’t return to show-closing status for a few years. After a blistering version of ‘Water’,
the show finishes with ‘My Generation’ moving into ‘Magic Bus’ and what was reportedly a
Townshend smash-up of not one, but two guitars.
