"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.

*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.

* Original Notes
Comments: 
A long, strange trip for this gem.  It ended up in our intrepid hero's hands as the surprise diamond in a trade.  

In his own words--

"The person who I received this show from was not able to provide me with any useful information. He actually told me it was from a radio show in 1967 with the songs Astronomy Domine and Green is the Colour among others. There was no artwork, just multi-colored stick on labels with the name Pink Floyd, the letters CWRU, and 1967 on them. When I inquired about the source he just said that he was glad I liked it. Further inquiries were given answers unrelated to the question or not answered at all... Either he was just reluctant to reveal anything or was just unaware of what it was he had."

So for once we have no lineage information for you. However what we do have is an amazing and complete document of the Floyd in their prime giving us an utterly stunning performance. Of special note is the "jam sessions" mid-song that seems to take place during each track. FOS gets a bit of a Beatlee-sque/Abbey Road type of treatment, Set The Controls is a free for all about half way through, and is that a bow solo ala Jimmy Page during the break during One Of These Days?  Careful With That Axe is full of angst and just... well, rocks! Echoes is perfect as well! Finally, we get a rare treat with Blues included for good measure.

As a result of our cleanup efforts there's great definition of the instruments and you can hear some things that I know I've never heard before in these live recordings. These surprises make this one a keeper and a welcome addition to the collection.

It looks as though some NR was performed in the past as part of the upper end has been completely removed (from 165000 Hz -22050 Hz).

*Original notes:
Not the complete concert, still missing Saucerful & Echoes...
but this is all that is circulated.Wonderful show, and the quality is very nice.
One of the minority of commercial roios that I actually like...
and so far this is indeed the best source available for this date.
The stereo perspective on this tape is amazing!  Not much hiss
noticeable (due, of course, to the 2nd gen tape used), but the loudest
volumes are slightly distorted...otherwise great overall.

* Original Notes
It is said that Paul Hammond and John DuCann left the band before this show. These two were on the LP "In Hearing Of", but left soon after the recording of that album (in 1971) to form another band, Daemon. Hammond had actually taken over Parnell's spot in August 1970 (after Parnell took over Carl Palmer's) -- but when Hammond departed, Parnell was brought back into the fold (in the interim Parnell was in a band called Horse).
Ric Parnell later went on to find fame as Mick Shrimpton in the movie 'This Is Spinal Tap'.
Steve Bolton later played in the Who. Pete French (vocals, formerly of Cactus) departed to form Leaf Hound...

(Warning-Pretty rough recording. But still very listenable! Being as their's so few recordings of this band, why not post it?)
