SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN (14:21) I came across this killer Dark Side concert recording, labeled simply (MASTER rec2) as an alternate to another lower quality source I already had (Lord of the Universe.) What an upgrade! Nice clear EQ, and mostly intact with few faults overall (rated at Ex/Ex-, and I think I'd agree.) However, this source did have a few annoying issues which tended to detract from the overall enjoyment of such a fiery show. Some of this faults included odd indexing, a few missing pieces, a number...a very, very _large_ number, actually...of mic taps, the odd electrical/digital crackle and spots of distortion here and there. The quality of the recording nonetheless inspired me to put some time into whatever restoration plans I could muster. Here are some notes on the changes I've made: - "MASTER rec2" source used for the main body, with "The Lord of the Universe" (rec 1) source serving to fill in gaps - properly re-indexed the entire Dark Side show - shifted the lead-in to the partial recording of One of These Days from the end of disc 1 to the beginning of disc 2, where it belongs - joined the two parts of Any Colour You Like and two parts of Careful... seamlessly, deleting and smoothing out any gaps - combined and re-indexed the 2nd disc titles, so as to include the intros with the title tracks for smoother flow - used rec 1 source to fill missing sections of Us and Them, Echoes (small gaps), Set the Controls... and One of These Days (big gaps); concert now complete - deleted several repetitions of the last minute or so of what was recorded during Set the Controls... on rec 2 source, hence the final time is not much longer than the original, but most of the end from rec 2 was just repeated filler, anyway - attenuated and filtered a huge number mic taps/bumps, crackle, and odd noise incidents - patched a fair number of drop-outs by amplification or cross-channel filling - performed heavy EQ on filler source to brighten the sound for smoother transitions - filtered rec 2 source very, very lightly for hiss - faded in and out the start and end of disc 2 instead of abrupt cuts (disc 1 already had acceptable fades) A few words about the show itself. Awesome pre-LP Dark Side gig. Early versions of the "Eclipse" suite, but well-rehearsed at this point, after having played the set for several months. On the Run being the guitar "jam" thing, and the Mortality Sequence the funeral dirge style bridge. Nice, long, relaxed and funky Any Colour... here. Then, on to the next CD, I?ve brought in the tune-ups and opening of One of These Days from rec 1. The rec 2 taper missed the opening first few minutes, but with some EQ and exact timing, you get to hear the whole track now, alternating between head-banging intensity and spacey-tripped out excursions. You can hear the fade-in just after the 5:10 mark, but the better source stays in play for most of this half. Next, one of the finest Careful... versions ever put down on recorder. Rick's strained, haunting, mellotron-like strings fade up like a ghostly veil over Nick's gentle cymbal-tapping, Dave's Arabesque guitar drones filling in as Roger whispers, groans, and clicks into an echo-soaked microphone. Absolutely chilling. The track swells with Dave's eerie non-Western scale chants and blistering axe-work, and Rog hadn't even started thinking about screaming yet. One of the finest incarnations I've ever heard, and probably why I was convinced to put all the restoration work in to the whole show. They follow with an equally-stunning Echoes, tightly performed and another gem track. Their last number, Set the Controls... was cut several minutes short on the original tape, which is too bad since it was another fine rendition. The ending came courtesy of the "Lord of the Universe" source, as I feel it is always better to tolerate a drop in quality over complete discontinuity. A lot of work went into all the mods, precisely-timed fills, and especially for the removal of those taps and crackles. A majority of the bumps to the mic undoubtedly came from the taper's deliberate activities, tapping or air-drumming away to the show. I might have found myself doing that if I had been in another place and time to see what must have been a phenomenal concert experience. However, those booms certainly didn't make for an enjoyable listening experience! You can still hear the defects, but the original was really so much worse in those few spots.
