notes:
i originally received this as audio wavs, after a couple years i extracted
it for this seed. using eac and accurate stream, the entire show extracted
fine except for d2t10 (braindamage) - i only got the first 2 minutes of it.
using burst mode i was able to get the whole track. the first time i used
burst it produced a pop at 1:20, but then the second time it came out ok. i
compared the two burst versions by inverting and mix-pasting the two
versions on top of each other - the difference were almost non-existent,
except for the pop in the first burst version. then i mix-pasted the 2nd
burst version over the accurate stream version - almost no differences, just
a few small minor pops i couldn't even hear in the "differences-only"
mix-paste result file - let alone in the burst mode version. so i used the
first two minutes of the accurate stream version, then tacked on all but the
first two minutes of the 2nd burst mode version,to create a "flawless"
version d2t10. enjoy - davepeterson An excellent 2-CDR set of the show from
March 11,1973 at the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. This show has long been
well-known among Floyd fans as a very strong performance by the boys, but
remarkably has never made it to disc until now. This set evidently gets its
title from the man who shouts something like "Yeeshkul!" (I have no idea
what it means) at least six or seven times over the course of the show.
Fortunately, he almost never shouts it during the songs,and overall audience
interference is minimal during this whole show. And a hell of a show it is,
especially the first set,which is one of the best sets I've ever heard from
the Dark Side-era Floyd. Sound quality is very high; whoever did this one
took a lot of care over it, and it shows - it sounds decidedly better than
my tape, which is pretty good as it is. There's almost no hiss or
distortion, and the speed is perfect. (Of course it's not a professional
recording, but it's still quite good for a 25-year-old audience
tape.)There's a small edit in Great Gig in the Sky, but it's handled nicely,
and doesn't really disrupt the song too much at all.(Echoes also cuts in a
minute or so into the song, shortly before the drums enter.)The stereo
imaging on this tape is unusually good, with parts of Set the Controls for
the Heart of the Sun featuring some of the best stereo effects I've heard on
an audience tape (and some say it's the best version of Set the Controls
ever).The packaging is minimal but thoughtful, featuring pictures taken from
the concert (and nice black leaf-masking on the front cover). All in all, a
great set! - MT |
