1977 May 6/7: Anaheim

updated March 2008

2 recorders are available in the general circuit for the first date and only 1 for the 2nd so far. All generally in average quality, although low gen's revealed them to be all pretty good recordings.

1977 May 06

archives don't report any number for this show but there's clearly one on 3rd verse
Waters says a super-distorted 35 or 34 or 41?

here are few examples of versions of the 2 recorders in circulation

recorder 1: complete recorder available commonly on the LP RoIO "California Stockyard [On The Road] (unlabeled)"; "The Evil Tide" [a reissue of "California Stockyard  (unlabeled)"]; many fantapes circulated too like this very nice 1stGen, some are a bit edited as on this 2ndGen.

recorder 2: "California Stockyard [On The Road] (PF 400)" LP and all the CDs sourced from it usually having the same title like this (which is missing POTW part2) or this nice Pinkrudy LP-transfer or the boot "Anaheim 1977" complete.

this recordr is missing Sheep, SOYCD (pt 1-5), Money and part of POTW part 2 too (this was not included in the LP "California Stockyard" at all)

an incomplete video recording of the show exists as well including: Pigs (3DO), WttM, Dogs, Have a Cigar, SOYCD (pt 6-9) [all songs are cut VQ is poor]
 

very easy to distinguish the 2 tapers, recorder 1 has a bunch of audience noise

here are a couple points were to recognize them:

POTW1: on recorder1 as soon as the song starts there's a guy clapping near to the microphone

DOGS: on recorder1 when Gilmour starts singing a guy sings together with him "...be crazy"  and then he shouts "wooow" ; at the end there's a lady shouting "sit down"

POTW2: on recorder1 a lady talks and yells at the beginning; on recorder2 the song is cut missing the end

PIGS: on recorder1 a guy screams "hellooo" during the pigs at the beginning

WTTM: guys shouts "get down! sit down!" at the beginning on recorder1

1977 May 07

Waters screeches 30-10 (3rd verse) on Pigs (3DO) someone suppose it's 32 .. could be, could be not ...
 

recorders known: 1

the most common version of this recording is some fanproduced CD entitled "California Nights"; versions may vary a lot about this recording, some copies are pretty bad-sounding (including very low gen's; I checked both a 1st and a 2nd gen of this source/copy that are nothing more than a VG-) some other source/copies are on the contrary very good like this  supernice 3rdGen or this unknown LowGen

NB: the California Pigs RoIO is circulating reporting this date but it's really Frankfurt 27 Jan. 77
