the only other post-syd one i have is "lost in the corridors" (lp) and it sounds kinda assy. though a couple of weird takes on longer jams.

The live at KQED(?) in San Francisco in 1971 - I think - is all kinds of marvellous. It exists on video.

Anything from 71 with good quality and long echoes is worth a listen.

Harvested 007, 013, & 016 are good places to start. Check out the index at http://www.harvested.org/ and then snag them from y33shkul.c0m (googleproofed)

Not that anyone seems to care but D1m3ad0z3n is throwing up lots of good 70/71 era PF at the moment.

cool , i love that period...has the recent discovery of a syd era live show in excellent quality been discussed here? can't remember...sounds great, though i guess the vocals aren't very prominent. from a swedish blog:
Anders Lind did start the show with some information about the tape. A swedish group Hansson and Karlsson had played at Gyllene Cirkeln on the day before. He didn't take the taperecorder with him that night because it's rather heavy. He asked Pink Floyd and their manager the next day if he could record the show. The manager had answered "If you promise not to do anything stupid or bad" which he promised not to do.
The tape started with an English DJ, then Anders had edit the tape for the jam session. Anders told us after the session Roger is saying "Nobody is ever gonna hear that one again, before or since". Anders think that Before or Since could be a good name for the jamsesson and it's about 7 min long.
So the first song of the evening is Matilda Mother, which is about 5 min long. Very difficult to hear Syds voice, you hear some in the beginning.
Next song is Pow R Toch which is about 11 min long. Good playing from everyone.
Next song is Scream Thy Last Scream which is about 3 min long. Very very difficult to hear anything of Syds voice.
Next song is Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun which is about 7 min long. You can hear Roger saying "It's called Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" You hear a little of Rogers voice. It's hard to hear the lyrics, more of someone singing something.
Next song is See Emily Play which is about 3 min long. Don't know if I can hear any voice from Syd cos the audience is singing to the famous lines.......... (not 1967 but 2011). This version sounds a bit different to the single version.
Last song is Interstellar Overdrive which is about 10 min long. A very good version to my ears. Here you can hear that Syd is not yet lost, which Anders also did say before the show. A couple of weeks later, he was lost forever...........

I know, can't wait to hear this. Hopefully EMI and the owner of the tape can get it happening.
― MaresNest, Sunday, 12 June 2011 21:27 (fourteen years ago)
yeahhh, the problems with the vocals make an official release seem not too likely, but who knows? seems pretty essential to the syd legacy.
― tylerw, Sunday, 12 June 2011 21:30 (fourteen years ago)
also, lol at what the audience looked at while the tape played: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hwzgHFN_ADc/TcaVz3GM0KI/AAAAAAAAAFM/BjC4hSoeBKQ/s1600/P1010761.JPG

here's a pic from the actual show... did not know the golden circle was a dinner club! weirdhttp://www.brain-damage.co.uk/images/stories/100967.jpg
― tylerw, Sunday, 12 June 2011 21:34 (fourteen years ago)
They've been talking, yet to reach an price. If they do I guess it'll come out on the second set of reissues. I heard something very cool the other day, I daren't talk about it, but it's something I've read about since I was a kid.
― MaresNest, Sunday, 12 June 2011 21:37 (fourteen years ago)
ha, what a tease. is it a recording of stars, the post-floyd barret band? isn't something like that rumored to exist?
― tylerw, Monday, 13 June 2011 01:54 (fourteen years ago)
I doubt that anything like that live tape will appear on EMI, while "Scream"/"Veg" stays unreleased.
― Mark G, Monday, 13 June 2011 10:10 (fourteen years ago)
I hope the Stars stuff never surfaces, I have never read an account of it that sounds like it'd be anything other than sad.
― brad whitford, witchfynder general (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Monday, 13 June 2011 11:23 (fourteen years ago)
Nah it's not the Stars material, nor is it something that won't be available come Sept, as a lifelong PF nerd it was just good to hear something I'd always read about. The live tape has been/is being looked at by EMI, if the mechanics of ownership/licensing can be worked out it'll come out.
― MaresNest, Monday, 13 June 2011 11:31 (fourteen years ago)
not a particularly rare thing, but if you're looking for one of the great floyd boots, i just posted this over here: http://doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/7615424545/labyrinths-of-coral-caves-in-recent-stories-aboutlove it so much.

Cool. Btw, just curious how do you track so much stuff down tyler?
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 14 July 2011 16:14 (fourteen years ago)
oh just here and there. i don't do the torrent thing, just because it'd be too much, I think. i had a big period from 2001-2004 where I did a LOT of cd-r trading, and that's where a big amount of the doom and gloom stuff comes from.
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 16:20 (fourteen years ago)
random pink floyd tidbit of last weekend: classic rock dj, as "learning to fly" fades out: "learning to fly, from momentary lapse of reason -- my favorite pink floyd album." really?
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:29 (fourteen years ago)
My brother posted "fearless" on my fb wall last week. Fucking love that song.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:32 (fourteen years ago)
yeah this bbc boot is kind of the ultimate companion to meddle but speaking of momentary lapse: (interview with engineer who's working on the reissues)
Will A Momentary Lapse of Reason be remixed for an Immersion box set? David Gilmour has mentioned before his interest in “mixing the 80s out of it”
AJ: Interesting point. A Momentary Lapse of Reason is an odd one out inasmuch as it’s the only album that was trying to be ‘of the time’, which now means it sounds dated, rather than timeless. We have started this process a while ago, doing new drums with Nick with a much more “Pink Floyd classic” approach. If & when we’ll pick it up I don’t know.
SDE: (reponse to above): Very interesting…. one assumes that if there was to be an Immersion Edition of A Momentary Lapse of Reason then this process would probably be completed. Is it just the drums that have been redone so far?
AJ: Yes and yes. It was our intention to remove some of the 80′s synths and get more Rick hammond on it. Obviously not possible for him to do it now, but we started the process of pulling some of his playing from gigs of those songs. Just a lot of editing/syncing to do on that, but it should work
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:32 (fourteen years ago)
God help me if I ever buy a Pink Floyd box set tbhThanks for the BBC sesh, really dug Fat Old Sun on my lunch break, gonna check out Echoes here in a minute.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:36 (fourteen years ago)
huh i would actually be interested in hearing that version of momentary lapse
that was really my first exposure to pink floyd outside of the classic rock radio standards, but i owned that before i heard any of the classic albums
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:54 (fourteen years ago)
lol i think the first floyd album i heard in full was delicate sound of thunder - my older brother's friend had the tape. i had nowhere to go but up, i guess.
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 18:56 (fourteen years ago)
is division bell any good? i stopped caring by then
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 14 July 2011 19:07 (fourteen years ago)
pretty ho hum. probably better than momentary lapse, but boring overall. i feel like someone on ILM defended it?
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 19:09 (fourteen years ago)
good lord this bootleg is fucking EPIC tyler!!!!! woah
meddle is my fav album too, wow wow this sounds awesome.
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 14 July 2011 22:20 (fourteen years ago)
hee hee! it's the best! the sound of floyd goin IN.
― tylerw, Thursday, 14 July 2011 22:22 (fourteen years ago)
so cool that this was a BBC show and not a taper so we get fairly close to studio album quality sound
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 14 July 2011 23:14 (fourteen years ago)
Gosh this BBC show is a beauty. Thanks!
― Vendo Caramelos A Veces Sin Dinero (Capitaine Jay Vee), Friday, 15 July 2011 04:41 (fourteen years ago)
glad you guys are digging it. there's a 1970 bbc show that's not quite as good, but is great nonetheless. i'll put that one up next week.

― tylerw, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 17:45 (fourteen years ago)
not sure, the tracklist is just dark side of the moon in sequence but online it seemed like this was a show that was done prior to the album being released, so TRV floyd-heads prized the bootleg before dark side came out
― van ingalls wilder (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 17:52 (fourteen years ago)
i wish i had a pic of the labels on the actual record, they are some weird faux r. crumb style art of this guy listening to a record stoned
