For those Maiden fans, I would like to suggest the NO PRAYER IN WEMBLEY. It’s an awesome sounding bootleg with a tight performance. Great addition to anyone’s collection. If you were hesitant for any reason, you don’t have to be no more. Great stuff.
Wow, a soundboard from one of the Somerville shows?! Quite a find! If it’s only 2 discs, and hopefully it contains all the songs (and partial songs); then they must have cut all the spoken intros, dialogue, plus the Q&A with the audience. This show clocked in well over 3 hours.
If this is the case, I’d prefer the whole show intact. If it truly is a soundboard, maybe someone will release the complete show.
And finally, someone is releasing the 11-4-76 show! Always wanted this show on silver-Great Dane released it years ago but apparently, that was one of their titles that suffered from cd rot so I always stayed away from that one.
I thought Godfather would eventually put this show out, but they’ve been trumped!
You’re correct. I don’t remember the last great Sigma Pink Floyd release. It seems like ages ago. The 40th Anniversary edition of Layla, while not Floyd, is good compensation and something I’m looking forward to hearing.
Yet again, for what seems as if it’s the umpteenth consecutive week, no non-Ke$ha Floyd-related release by Sigma – by now they’ve surely either tied or broken their previous record for going most consecutive weeks without any non-Ke$ha Floyd-related release(s). Oh well, at least I can enjoy listening to my 40th Anniversary official re-release of the non-Ke$ha “Layla” by Derek & The Dominos that’s supposed to be released tomorrow. Thanks for the info
