Many interesting new silvers are coming out this week starting out with the new Queen dedicated label Master Stroke. They are continuing their production of comprehensive audio and video titles with Carnival At The Court (FFMS-005A/B/C). This covers the June 6th & June 7th, 1977 Earl’s Court extravaganza. The audio is on 2CDs and the video on one silver DVD. All of this has been out before but it’s nice to have it in one collection. Foreigner First Time In Tokyo (no label) is a one silver disc title from the Budokan on July 4th, 1978.
Boz Scaggs Live Ahead (no label) is a 2CD silver pressed title with the Tokyo show on October 14th, 1980.
Lynyd Skynrd One More From The Nights (no label) is a 2CD set from Nakano Sunplaza, Tokyo, Japan on January 15th, 1977.
Pink Floyd Boston 1973 (Sigma 73) features a remastered edition of the Joe Maloney tape for the Music Hall, Boston show on March 14th, 1973.
Pink Floyd Santa Monica 1970 (Sigma 70) features the May 1st, 1970 show from the Civic Auditorium in Santa Monica, California. If you liked this review, buy me a cup of joe.

For whatever it may be worth to anyone, the Santa Monica ’70 show has been described by Sigma as “PERFECT SOUND (UPGRADE)”, & the Boston ’73 show has been described by Sigma as “TRULY AMAZING/PERFECT SOUND (UPGRADE)”. Just received the May 1, 1970 Floyd title (Sigma 70), and have made a fair, but quick comparison to Heavy Hung. There is no comparison. This release is a stunning upgrade, with depth, closeness, and atmosphere not present on Heavy Hung. Actually listening for maybe the 6th time now to Gilmour’s breathtaking vocals on Grantchester Meadows – which are nowhere on Heavy Hung as that release came into the song with 31 seconds left – and loving the song’s transition into Astronomy Domine. I’ve gained a whole new appreciation for the start to this amazing concert. All tracks sound incredible as cmpared to Heavy Hung, leaving this collector quite pleased. I am no Floyd expert but out of curiousity I did some net search. Could it simply be that Sigma used this version? Sorry the comment area are closed |
