notes:

This is from another 1st Generation tape than the version I got before.
The contents are the same as on the other version supposed from the Master with the same cuts and missing the over 4 minutes audience between Money and Us & Them (present on the other 1st generation tape)
Sound quality is to me an upgrade to the other 1stGen and so to the supposed master version too, this tape has prominence of hights, sounding crispier and a bit less saturated than the other one. It also sounds cleaner and this is particularly noticeable on the 2nd set, where the other 1stGen source starts sounding a bit worse. This source sounds clean both on the 1st and the 2nd set. Again, especially for the 2nd set this is a real upgrade to the other version I checked. The cut on Pigs is here cleaner too and the part following the cut sounds much better than the same part of the other 1stGen source.
The pitch is different than on the other source as well, I am not able to say what's the right one, this tape seems to run OK to me.
I kept all raw not applying any post-processing, boosting and/or amplification, I just joined music between the tape-sides editing out little pieces repeated between the sides:
- I joined the end of sideA and the beginning of sideB perfectly, removing a little portion repeated, this occurs at the beginning of Pigs in the point where the guy near to the taper yells something in German.
- I joined the end of sideB and the beginning of sideC perfectly, removing a little portion repeated, this occurs at the beginning of WYWH right before the guitar starts playing.
no point of junction is perceptible.

haha charade you are!

here the "In The Flesh" world tour begins! and here the Waters' game starts too ...
Waters shouts his first number here > 1 on Pigs - 3rd verse (at 00:05 of track 6 on this version)

back to: 1977 January 23/24: the many testimonies of the debut
