Pink Floyd – The Syd Barrett Years 1965-1971

This set was compiled from the best available sources and remastered with care. There was no hiss reduction or fake stereo processing done to this set. Mono recordings appear here in true mono. I was often able to reduce hiss with EQ rather than harsh processing. These tracks were remastered in a similiar fashion to the official Pink Floyd remasters, so excellent quality tracks such as the legendary unreleased “Vegetable Man” and “Scream Thy Last Scream” will blend in nicely on your own Floyd mix CD or playlist. The BBC Sessions appear here with the original DJ intros and have been edited to flow straight through with each broadcast. I am not a member of the Pink Floyd bootleg community, but I am a huge Syd Barrett fan. I was given the raw material for this set by a knowledgeable Floyd collector. I have no idea if all these sources are widely circulating, but the I’ve been told that this set beats all the other common ones, so if you’re a fan, you definitely need this set

notes on the remaster

Hello again! Here is a very special treat courtesy of one of my best friends of the last, oh, 25 years, my pal Irin, a professional soundman in Brooklyn, NY. He was kind enough to send this to me, it was taped directly off the radio (WLIR-FM, Garden City, NY) by him in 1984, and it’s a b-e-a-s-t!

All the bootlegs I have ever run across of this performance are all from multi-gen tapes and sound horrifyingly compressed… the one on the Scorpio label (“Wild Weekend”) suffers from a ridiculous amount of compression and contains practically zero high end, whilst the other one I have (remastered by NoSpEx in 2007, I believe, from another source) is also from a mulit-generated tape and suffers from a pervasive clipping & distortion in the low end due to what he described in the notes I saved from that torrent as a faulty original digital transfer over which he had no control.

So, given that the performance contained herein is such an indisputably ripping scorcher, it seems appropriate to finally get this puppy circulating from a bona fide first-generation source, thanks to Irin. In this remaster I stayed away from EQ and noise reduction and whatnot, especially because of the other versions I mentioned where such things are prevalent to the point of intrusiveness. Bottom line is that this tape has survived the last quarter century in terrific shape and I really felt it didn’t need any artificial enhancements, especially since Irin’s transfer was so well-done & tasty to begin with.

All I changed was a few repairs of the isolated static (not too many, maybe twice in the whole show) and some channel dropouts and whatnot. The tape flip (first few seconds of “Both Ends Burning”) was patched using the aforementioned NoSpEx remaster, which I EQ’d paragraphically to get a closer sonic match with the main source (not easy because they were very different-sounding indeed). Hopefully it isn’t too intrusive, but at any rate it’s just a few seconds so no worries.

Someday, a pre-FM master of this will surface… a while back when whoever it was was torrenting all those WLIR masters I was seriously hoping for this one but I guess he didn’t have it, oh well. Until it surfaces this will probably be the best version out there, so give it a spin and see what you think… it’s a massive upgrade over the other versions, at least, IMO.

OK, enjoy, seed away when you are done, and remember we’re here to groove like we mean it and to share like we’ll die if we don’t.

PS–Irin runs a website-with-accompanying-podcast-of-excellence called Ambient Chaser, check him out at http://www.ambientchaser.com early and often, OK?

Thanks of course go to him for taking the time to record & transfer the tape, to Le Musique Roxy for burning down the Calderone like they did and thanks to you for downloading this most stompin’ show.

Reseed Note:

I like my music tagged so i tagged all the files and therefore had to make a new md5 file.
I also added an ffp file.
Other than that the files are untouched and as they came with the original torrent.

Tagged & re-seeded on DAD by surfling april 2010.

All thanks go to Irin for providing and transfering this incredible tape in the first place
and to emperor nobody for cleaning it up and sharing it here originally!
