Humble Pie - Live 81/75 Route 66

*Original Notes
Here's a show from the 1981 tour w/ some bonus tracks from the 1975 tour. Quality is very good (maybe an 8/10) for both shows.

Dates on the attached artwork are wrong, as can be confirmed by checking the tracklist, which includes tracks from On To Victory.

Tracks 1-8 were recorded in Los Angeles 1981, tracks 9-12 at the Spectrum in Philadelphia 1975.

Also, the lineup for the 1981 shows is not the classic Clem Clempson lineup of the 1975 show (as the artwork infers). In 1981, the band was Steve Marriott/Jerry Shirley/Bobby Tench/Booty Jones.

*Original Comments
At last, a live recording of the rare Childhood's End! This is the first roio I know of to have it. Not only that, we get two additional performances of it. Depending on your preferred reference source (A Journey Through Time And Space or the newly released and, for me, somewhat inaccurate and misleading Pink Floyd: In The Flesh) there were only 4 - 8 (or so) performances of Childhood's End. The presence of three of these limited performances makes this disc invaluable to collectors. The disc also contains the somewhat less rare Obscured By Clouds/ When You're In. This is one of the few roio's that contains a complete performance from the 1973 shows. The source is an audience recording that is of very good quality. I have not listened to this cd that much, so at this point I cannot give a detailed analysis. I am not a big fan of the DSOTM, (though I do like the early Eclipsed performances), so I tend to stay away from the June 1972 -> 1973 shows. As a result, my points of reference would not be extremely relevant in comparing the March 7 show to other shows in this time frame. Nevertheless, the sound quality is high and song performances are strong. The BIG problem for collectors is that this roio may not be available on a large scale. Though commercially available, the creators of this cd are not really in the business of manufacturing roio's. As a result, availability may be somewhat limited. On the positive side, this is the first release of a possibly continuing series of hard to find Floyd performances. Word from the source is that they may release these shows on a monthly basis. If this release is any indication, we could be in store for quite a treat. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Given that this is the only currently available roio (as far as I know) that contains the elusive Childhood's End (let alone 3 performances of it), I highly recommend you get it - that is, if you can find it. Rated as essential collection material. -SCOTT

The Chicago performance is above average throughout, and a complete ‘73 with Childhood’s End is certainly a rare treat. Sound quality, however, was a big disappointment on this one, and detracts significantly from my enjoyment of the disc. It is clean and probably close to the master, but the recording just wasn’t that great to begin with. Audibly, the taper was nowhere near the stage. The music primarily found the microphone via the ceiling and walls of the venue. VG- in my book.

The two extra versions of CE both sound better than the Chicago source, though they aren’t outstanding either. -EL
