Notes: 'Obscured by Father Time' Radio City Music Hall, New York March 18th 1973 Godfather Records (G.R. 340 / 341) Silver CD > FLAC Much confusion has surrounded these recordings from March 18th, 1973 in recent years; Pink Floyd were scheduled to perform in Waterbury, Conneticut on the date in question, and thus, many of the tapes from this date were attributed to the Palace Theater in Waterbury for that reason. However, the band actually performed twice on the 18th; although the tickets for Pink Floyd's March 17th 1973 concert at New York's Radio City Music Hall had been printed with the March 17th date, the band didn't actually take to the stage until 1 A.M. the following morning, hence he difficulty in accurately identifying this show. Early tape traders originally determined that the origin of these recordings was the Radio City Music Hall, but as new sources emerged with the March 18th date, and subsequently compared to the older Radio City sources, determined to all be of the same show, based upon the bands tour schedule, they were then attributed to Waterbury! Ultimately, it is unlikey that 5+ sources could originate from one show in a small Connecticut city in 1973, yet none from the famous Radio City Music Hall in New York, and given this fact, along with other details found within the recordings themselves, we can finally clear up this confusion once and for all! We proudly present to you the silver debut of Pink Floyd's excellent 1973 performance at New York's Radio City Music Hall, in support of the "Dark Side Of The Moon" album! The eleventh concert of the bands first North American tour for 1973 includes "When You're In" and "Obscured By Clouds" from the soundtrack of the same name. - these songs would only be performed live in 1973, and make documents such as this even more valuable. Additionally, this would be the last year "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" would be performed on a Pink Floyd tour, and the other long time fature "Careful With That Axe, Eugene" would soon be retired the following year to make way for newer material. Of course, the centrepiece of this collection is the complete "Dark Side of the Moon" suite, marking the first time the New York audience would experience the final, post-LP release version of the epic, which had transformed significantly since the bands last visit in May of 1972. Without question, this is one of the most important concerts the band performed in 1973 that directly contributed to the changing fortunes of the band!

Recorder 4 Master[Maxell UDXL II CASS]>CDR4 Comments: Recorder 2[wojtek] was mostly used for in between song chatter and tune ups Recorder 2 [DR] was used main source used for the songs. i always felt this was the best sounding source. Recorder 4 was used to fill the cut in echoes. Recorder 3[wojtek] was used to fill the cut in us and them and also for missing parts in the encore. Speed correction was done to all sources that needed it! This should be the best sounding and most complete roio available for this date!

'compressed tapes' were not so unusual in the tape-traders circuit as it was confirmed me lately too about another show actually (digital or not it's always a compression anyway ;PP) I did notice some little edits here and there as well, dunno the cause of that (JFG??? are u there!!?)
