Pink Floyd – The Syd Barrett Years 1965-1971

PINK FLOYD
The Syd Barrett Years

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

Tommy rehearsals! I was drooling all the way home when I bought this in Houstin in 1998. The artwork is digipack style – so feel free to edit them as you wish.

Venue:
Tracks 1-2: BBC Television Centre, London “Lulu” TV Show, Wednesday,
December 30, 1970
Tracks 3-13: BBC 1 Top Of The Pops Into 71, broadcast on December 31, 1970.
Recording: BBC Television & Sound board
Comments: The Lulu Show songs are a bit weak in performance and the rest of the
CD is comprised of Tommy demos and rehearsals. Apart from the Lulu tracks, this
is an interesting CD. Tracks 3-6 appear to be identical to other Tommy Demos
tracks. However, Tracks 7-13 appear to be WHO rehearsals featuring Roger Daltrey
on vocals. Track 7 cuts in immediately before the verse. The track venues listed
above were referenced from The Who Concert File book, (p.71).

  1. I Don’t Even Know Myself
  2. Naked Eye
  3. I’m Free
  4. Tommy’s Holiday Camp
  5. Welcome
  6. We’re Not Gonna Take It

10,000 Maniacs – London, England (09/01/87)

10,000 Maniacs
BBC Maida Vale Studios

Andy Kershaw Session

Source: FM > ? > cassette received in trade > Nero ROM > Cool Edit > CDR > FLAC
Sound quality: A

Tracks:

  1. What’s the Matter Here?
  2. Poison in the Well
  3. Don’t Talk
  4. Gun Shy

This is an in-studio session recorded for the BBC’s Andy Kershaw in September 1987. The performances are fairly standard,
although it’s interesting that “Poison in the Well” was still being performed both live and at this in-studio session,
given that it would not be released until the “Blind Man’s Zoo” album in 1989.

10,000 Maniacs’ “The Wishing Chair” L.P. will celebrate its 30th anniversary this year
(original release date – September 23, 1985). Since it seems apparent that the Maniacs
are not being given the remaster / bonus tracks / box set treatment that they so richly
deserve, I’ve decided to upload all of my 70+ live and rare 10,000 Maniacs recordings
during the coming weeks. Although many of these recordings will be re-seeds of previous
Dime torrents, a substantial number have never appeared on the Dime (and many others
haven’t been shared since the Dime’s previous incarnation as “easytree.org” circa 2005).
