do you know what i think my fave pink floyd thing is (post-syd)? i'll bet you never guess.

hahaha, i am telling people that pink floyd might sound good if you are stoned. hahahaha, who AM i, anyway?

That's exactly the (post-Syd) Pink Floyd stuff i'd expect any sensible person to like!

Is it actually BBC sessions tho? Live recordings?

I still wonder why these don't get official release.

No doubt Floyd themselves, spoilsports

"How dare we not make more money for ourselves."

They don't even like "Ummagumma", so what do they know?

Damn, now I'm curious about 'em. From the "I'll bet you'll never guess" I was all willing to come in here with a "Division Bell?"

I think that track list is from the "Top Gear" sessions they did from 68-70. I haven't seen "Murderistic Women" or "Julia Dream" showing up from other places.

Man, I'd love to hear it. I have the two Paris Cinema Peel hosted sets they did in 70 & 71. Those are pretty amazing, but don't have those early songs.

70 set list:
Embryo
Fat Old Sun
Green Is The Colour
Careful With That Axe Eugene
If
Atom Heart Mother

71 set list:
Fat Old Sun
One Of These Days
Embryo
Echoes
Blues

here is what the vinyl looked like. and one sold for 80 bucks on ebay last year. i really missed the boat when i didn't pick up that last copy i saw:

If you care, session info is available here:
Rhapsody In Pink

i have these on an old double CD set on I think the Great Dane label. has a picture of Stonehenge or some other rock formation on the front

now I am dying to hear "Point Me At The Sky"

WANT.

my favorite pink floyd record is atom heart mother :D

If there's one thing I miss about the vinyl-era it's crappy bootlegs with home-brew art and incorrect/pun titles.

DimeADozen can't hold a candle to them

yea atom heart is one of my top 3 fer sher. glad to hear an If mention Scott, heard a diss a while back and was horrified. just so simple and pretty.

i don't know where the original tapes came from - or if someone just taped it off of the radio? - but i can't stress enough how great these sessions SOUND. atom heart mother is with full choir and orchestra too. so amazing. i miss the drift and spaciousness of this era floyd. before they were bitter...

ugh that sounds so nice, full choir and orchestra? ridic!!

u can get those paris bbc sessions here http://index-of-parent-directory-free-mp3.blogspot.com/2007/04/pink-floyd-special-day.html

Comments: The LP is *very* clean. They are from bbc/rainbow theatre and were mostly aired on the John Peel show. I believe this was the first public performance of Echoes under that name. -OSO



My 'book' says: source BBC Session 68-70, but OSO's info seems more realistic, consiedered the perfect "Echoes". -PIET



Echoes lacks the beginning -GJC
