100 flat, square with the sharpest 4 corners This is a FANTASTIC artifact from the 70 s ...
Original 40 years ago original pressing only 100 copies first pressed on COLOR VINYL.
24 of 100 copies from 40 years ago Pretty interesting pre- Dark Side Of The Moon - different exclusive versions of the songs from the famous classic album.
LP 1 : In 1972, England s Rainbow Theatre was booked
for three shows for press introduction to Dark Side of the Moon but soon
a fourth show was set due to the big response.
This extra show was to be played on Sunday 20th February 1972 at 8:00 p.m.
For the first time the title Dark Side of the Moon was used.
In The Free Program of Rainbow Theatre, n.13 we can read: The Dark Side of the Moon - A Piece for Assorted Lunatics
A month before FLOYD were in this theater to rehearse for three days,
to try the new suite together with the new mixer, the new quadraphonic
system and the new light show.
The suite was performed ten times around England before the Rainbow nights.
It already changed a little from first couple of nights in Brighton and Portsmouth.
Eclipsed was added.
More changes would occur before the end of the year.
Given
the publicity and importance of this set of shows, and especially of
the opening night, Pink Floyd sound understandably tense and nervous.
They play the Dark Sidesuite very cautiously, emphasizing each note and
trying to be careful not to make any mistake.
On The Run is a nice jam
between Gilmour and Wright, and The Mortality Sequence contains the
Muggeridge speech.
Money is restrained,
as is Any Color You Like.
Overall the performance is highly
effective, but would grow much better in the ensuing days.

LP 2 : On
the 16th of July, 1970, Pink Floyd made a landmark appearance on the
Peel Sunday Concert from the Paris Cinema in London.
Performing well
developed versions of The Embryo and Green is the Color seamlessly
segueing into Careful with that Axe, Eugene three lives staples from
that era , they also premiered two new pieces, If and the grandiose
Atom Heart Mother suite.
The latter, which was the title track of
their new album taking up an entire side of the vinyl , saw the band
accompanied by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble performing before a live
audience, and was 1st broadcast on the 19th of July and repeated
throughout the 1970 s .On the 30th of September, 1971, Pink
Floyd returned to London s Paris Cinema to promote their soon to be
released new album, Meddle.
The songs featured were Fat Old Sun,
One of These Days I m Going to Cut You into Little Pieces, and finally Echoes.
This show was also performed before a live audience and was later
broadcast on Peel s In Concert program on the 12th of October.This
was the first time that two key songs from their new album were
performed on the BBC.
Echoes had been through a number of iterations,
originally starting out as a collection of unrelated segments stitched
together and originally titled The Return of the Son of Nothing.
Peel s
dry sense of humor can be heard as he introduces this song, casually
mentioning that the group s roadies Pete and Scott find it to be a
rather good number.
Likewise, he sarcastically puts down Roger Waters
equally sarcastic contention that Echoes was about modern
contemporary society.
Peel makes this comment for One of These Days
actually - ed One of These Days was introduced as Nick Mason s Vocal
debut, which I am assured, announces Peel, he will do without moving
his lips.
While Echoes and One of These Days would soon
appear on Meddle, Fat Old Sun had been previously released on Atom
Heart Mother, and was expanded into a fourteen minute epic, showcasing
the instrumental talents of Gilmour and Wright.This is classic
Pink Floyd, well on the way to becoming the mature band that would soon
reach world-wide fame with it s 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon.
What we have on this performance is a tight, professional band, who
unlike in later years, found room for improvisation and a looseness that
would slowly disappear from their repertoire.Fans of the
latter day Pink Floyd might be disappointed with this show, considering
that the songs are slower and do not feature any of Gilmour s blistering
guitar solos or Roger s biting and dark lyrics.
But long-time fans of
the band will delight in this golden era recording.
This was a Pink
Floyd performance without the aid of a sophisticated light show, lasers,
back-up performers or inflatable pigs.
This was purely the talents of
Roger Waters on bass, David Gilmour on lead guitar and vocals, Richard
Wright on keyboards and vocals and Nick Mason on drums and pre-recorded
vocals .
