SHN notes from trader MG in Japan: "The discs I received in trade came on cheapy CDRs and had a nasty burn error on d1t02 about .01 second long (maybe a laser got stuck - nice looking square waveform!) This defect was edited out and the discs were reburned. I decided to archive the whole thing. I did DAE with EAC in secure mode on a PlexWriter 12/10/32 and shn'ed with mkwACT.


"This CD is preferable to Meddlee because that CD has gaps and has the setlist in the wrong order. This one also has the complete show (hence the name!) unlike Obscurity."


DISC ONE

1. Embryo (longest version known to exist)
2. Fat Old Sun
3. Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun
4. Atom Heart Mother

DISC TWO

1. Careful With That Axe, Eugene
2. Cymbaline
3. Echoes
4. Blues

Comment #1:

Mostly from 3rd generation tape (parts of the 2nd set are from higher generation). The last performance of 'The Embryo', 'Fat Old Sun' and 'Cymbaline'. Extremely long version of 'The Embryo' which includes an extended guitar jam similar to 'Breathe'. Some noise reduction is apparent.

Comment #2:

This CD contains the complete 'Echoes' and 'Blues' that are not available on Obscurity (2CD, Sugarcane Records SC 52005/6), in addition to the longest version (26min) of 'The Embryo'. The 3rd gen. tape is used for most of this release, and the rest is unknown gen tape (that is, it is made of two tapes). This version is superior to 'Obscurity (2CD)'. 20-bit digital remastering.
