*Original Notes*

I got this one in a trade, so I'm simply reporting back the comments that are in the original text file:

Comments:
Complete show, and the second date of the Floyd's 1977 North American Tour.
The 'Intro' has all of the opening sound effects, a relative rarity for 1977 audience recordings -- church bells, sheep, etc; quite interesting. The tape also captures most of the interlude between the second set and the encore.
There is a cut 0:27 into 'Pigs On the Wing Pigs (Pt. 1)' which is in the original recording. Perhaps the taper didn't particulary care for the tune and thought he'd save some tape? 'Part 2' is very sweet, especially Snowy's solo. Roger clearly yells "31" at 4:33 into 'Pigs 3DO'.
'Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Pts. 1-5)' starts with what sounds like a gong, while Rick's opening bit is as eerie as ever. There's a dropout at 12:04 into the track, which sounds as if the taper was having a problem with his tape deck. Gilmour, as usual, performs yeoman's work during 'Shine On (Pts. 6-9)'. Gilmour's guitar during 'Money' is as spacey as I've ever heard him play this song.
Quality is VG+ to EX-, with some clipping that could be removed at the highest volumes.
Overall, a nice show . . . no thanks to the guy next to the taper who couldn't help himself from yelling "wooo" at various times throughout the show.

PRE-13 SOURCE INFO
====================
====================
Here it is, the infamous Meddled ROIO, feverishly sought after by
Floyd fans wanting to hear what Meddler was supposed to sound like
before being mistakenly editted to mono.
It came from an FM broadcast over the BBC in England.  The stereo
dimension adds so much to the recording, you can actually hear very
distinctly what each band member is doing. 
This ROIO is just an incredible listen from start to finish.  The
sound is amazing as is the performance of the Floyd.  Fat Old Sun
never sounded better.  It is important to note, Embryo and Blues
came from a different original source I believe.  You can read all
about this title (and Meddler) at the following URL:
http://www.pf-roio.de/roio/roio-cd/meddler.cd.html
One of the best Floyd ROIO's ever made, bar none.  Sit back with a
nice big fat one and enjoy the music.

Pink Floyd At The End Of The Rainbow Live 1972



At The End Of The Raimbow (sic) (Godfather Records GR 176/177)

Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, CA - September 22nd, 1972

Disc 1:
Speak To Me / Breathe (2:49),
On The Run (4:44),
Time (5:59),
Breathe (Reprise) (1:03),
The Great Gig In The Sky (4:39),
Money (6:26),
Us And Them (7:52),
Any Colour You Like (4:45),
Brain Damage (3:55),
Eclipse (1:52),
One Of These Days (11:23),
Careful With That Axe Eugene (14:01)

Disc 2:  Echoes (29:04),
A Saucerful Of Secrets (16:57),
Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun (13:25)

Godfather Records' At The End Of The Raimbow (sic) is a rather excellent
version of what many Floyd fans consider to be one of their all-time
greatest live performances.  It's a show that's also quite historically
notable since it's believed to be the very last time they ever played
"A Saucerful Of Secrets", and the version of it on this recording will
probably make any fan of this psychedelic classic regret that sadly they
would never play it again.

This release must be either a copy of the circulated non-commercial CDR
title Platinum Crackers or a derivative from it, which makes use of both
of the audience-recorded sources known to exist from this night, one of
them being from the master.  Strong evidence to such is the fact that the
playing times of each track on the first disc match up exactly with those
of Platinum Crackers, and the ones on the second disc differ only very
slightly by a few seconds each.  Regardless, the sound quality is excellent
, being clearly superior to that of the old release Staying Home To Watch
The Rain (Great Dane GDR CD 9013).  And unlike Crackers (Zeus Z 2011001/2)
, which was released years after Staying Home and sounds slightly better
than it but is unfortunately somewhat thin, and probably even worse, has a
somewhat irritatingly harsh, raspy sort of high end, At The End Of The
Raimbow has noticeably deeper bass and a high end that's significantly
less irritatingly harsh and raspy.  Furthermore, both "Any Colour You Like"
 and "Brain Damage" are seamlessly complete, whereas on Zeus' Crackers
approx. the last 40-45 seconds of "Any Colour" and the first 10-15 seconds
 of "Brain Damage" are unfortunately missing.  On At The End Of The
Raimbow, we have the complete show with no edits, cuts, fade-ins,
fade-outs, etc., and even the tune-ups are included.  Without the
tune-ups, however, it would have been possible for Godfatherecords to
squeeze both "One Of These Days" and "Careful With That Axe, Eugene" at
the beginning of Disc 2 instead of the end of Disc 1, which would have
made a somewhat better arrangement.

A highly-recommended title, At The End Of The Raimbow comes in a nicely
attractive multi-gatefold digipack that features relatively uncommon or
rare photos of each of the band members inside.  Godfathe Records
obviously must have meant to title this release At The End Of The Rainbow,
 but somehow At The End Of The Raimbow ended up as what's printed on the
spine while the front cover actually just says At The End Of Raimbow.
Nevertheless, such obvious typos alone would be a rather silly reason for
not getting this fine version of one of the all-time favorite live shows
of many Floyd fans.

Addendum: At The End Of The Raimbow is one of the releases of the
Hollywood Bowl '72 show that has its last 3 songs in what's believed to
be the correct order in which Floyd played them that night, while
"Staying Home to Watch the Rain" & "Crackers" apparently have the
incorrect order for those last 3 songs.

Pink Floyd Live Ivor Wynne Stadium 1975





Echoes in the Canadian Wood
RoIO silver cd - EAC- Flac
June 28 1975,
Ivor Wynne Stadium, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
Quality: EX

Since a Toronto appearance was unexpectedly cancelled, the Floyd were
detoured to Hamilton, Ont. Making It one of the largest concert events for
a dramatically unprepared Hamilton. With Ivor Wynne being considerably
smaller than the arenas they were now playing in, there was an audience
overflow outside the stadium and into the streets.
Accounts of people lining the sidewalks and laying in peoples front yards,
are widespread, the air full of clouds of pot smoke and the sounds of a
blistering show by PINK FLOYD.
Being the last show of the North American Tour, Pink Floyd's crew decided to
go out with a Bang!During the plane crash part of "On the Run", the crew
used up their remaining pyrotechnics around the stadium scoreboard.
The explosion was so intense it blew the scoreboard to pieces and shattered
windows in neighbouring houses.
Although this show is of EX sound quality,it's notable that the band appear
fatigued. You can hear it in their voices, and Rogers growing irritation for
the sometimes noisey crowd is shown at one point, saying "Tell you what,
We'll carry on and you can talk amongst yourselves".
Just another brick in the wall, I guess.


All in all, a show that went down in legend, and very good time was had by
all.

Black Sabbath Early Demos and Outtakes






Black Sabbath
Early One Morning
Early Demos, Outtakes and Rare Tracks
Definitive Collection
Various Sources
FLAC - MP3

Most of Sabbaths early work is widely available today, thanks to the internet, and unfortunately scattered thoughout different
sources and qualities. I've taken the time to assemble these works and present them here, all together, as a double CD. I do
not pretend to claim that this is EVERTHING rare from Sabbath, just what I've uncovered in my searches. Some points of
interest will be found with the COMPLETE versions of "The Rebel" and "When I Came Down", a song that would not have gone
amiss on the debut album. Disc 2 contains classic Sab songs with very different lyrics.
I've added some of the notes from the original sources, and have included some of the artworks from same.
ENJOY!

*digital audio flaw within track. Still listenable, but noticable
especially during "loud" sections.

An energetic and fresh concert from Jethro Tull, recorded during the
Catfish Rising tour. Ian and the gang came about with an amazing
collection of songs from the new, to unexpected classic oldies.
During this time (1992) I had recently discovered and fell in love with
the oldest and earliest Tull. I can't say how amazed I was to hear songs
I never thought I'd hear live. "My Sunday Feeling"
"Someday the Sun Won't Shine for You" "Beggars Farm".
I was in my glory!!!

A friend of mine was in the front rows, with a DAT recorder.
This was Jethro Tull...at Massey Hall.

The sound quality of this show is very good. The music and instruments
are good and clear. Ian's voice however, as it was live at the show, is
often distant and, not unexpectedly, weak.
The concert itself is energetic, with the band well on form. Ian has
many comic moments, all nicely captured here. At one point requesting
that we, the audience, refrain from our hooping and hollering, as
they would rather hear themselves play instead of our "ridiculous voices",
and suggesting we save it for a Bruce Springsteen concert.
Nice slap from Ian! All in good fun.

The biggest glitch in this recording appears on three tracks:

Farm on The Freeway
My God
Locomotive Breath

A digital "static" occurs throughout, most prominent during the louder
sections of the songs. Whether this flaw occured during tranfer from tape
to PC, or happened during the burning process, I'm not sure. It's
definatley NOT unlistenable, but noticable.
Otherwise, this is it! Raw, unprocessed, and first generation.
As far as I know, this is a first time release of this concert.
For a Tull fan it's a perfect candidate for remastering.


Pour yourself a glass, sit back, and enjoy the show.
