Merry Christmas 
and Happy Wishes for 2014



From Deep Within the Witchwood

Pink Floyd - Frankfurt 1977



Pink Floyd - Mega-rare restored vinyl 
"A Mysterie Called Floyd" - Frankfurt Festhalle 1977-01-27 
AUD, Speed corrected (mp3 sample included)

*Original Notes
I've always thought this boot had a terrible sound quality.
But upon checking I found the speed to be running way too 
fast. What you get (once it's running right that is) is a 
fairly nice recording of a great performance. If you like 
the "Animals" album, you might be playing this one over and
over again. As always, listen to the sample before 
downloading.

Setlist (run time about 45 mins)

Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Pigs On The Wing
Pigs (Three Different Ones)
Pigs On The Wing (instrumental section)

Lineage: LP -> SC on turntable ->Sound Forge ->click and 
crackle removal ->FLAC via TLH, level 6, sectors aligned 
and verified, FLAC integrity checked

Enjoy!

*Original Notes
Folks the quality of this show is stunning for the year and the fact that you get the whole 
Thick As A Brick suite only goes to say download me

notes from the the person who originally had this show

When i acquired this recording i was surprised the quality was as good as it was for
a show from 1972 unfortunately with about 5.45 to go on thick as a brick there was a screeching sound and then the show went on but
clearly something was missing.after comparing it to other TAAB performances i found that
approx 40 seconds was missing.this little glitch detracted so much from the ending of this TAAB
performance that i chose to splice in the missing segment with the performance from 3 days
earlier off the soft venus bootleg.i hope the purists will forgive me.

unquote.
Of course we forgive him this is a stunning show.
