PINK FLOYD - BBC Sessions (May 1967 - July 1969) (2LP) - FRA Verne Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RARE

ATTENTION! It is 100% the most complete, BEST-SOUNDING and without a doubt best-produced edition of the radio material from the BBC - ever released! A superb, exactly 104-minute, double black vinyl adorned with a very attractive sleeve (with a UNIQUE PHOTOGRAPH OF THE LINE-UP with BARRETT and GILMOUR from the BEGINNING OF 1968) and containing all existing/surviving STUDIO recordings made for BBC radio and TV, between the spring of 1967 and the summer of 1969. The first fourteen recordings are the line-up with Syd Barrett, while David Gilmour already appears in the remaining fifteen. Please note that several pieces never appeared on catalogue records ("Scream Thy Last Scream", "Vegetable Man", "Embryo", "Point Me At The Sky", "Moonhead"), though in a few other cases only the titles were changed... The quality is very good or even ideal - certainly better than on Pink Floyd's official, lavish, big CD box set (the people responsible for choosing the recordings for "The Early Years" dropped the ball, since versions in far better quality had been circulating among fans for years) though 3-4 short recordings hiss slightly, or are a little dull and will not get any better. ATTENTION! There is also an Italian, double version on the market (75 minutes in a beautiful psychedelic sleeve) - ending, however, in December 1968 and containing weaker versions of the early recordings - taken from the CD box set. The Verne Records version, on the other hand, contains not only remastered, de-noised and corrected material (for example "Interstellar Overdrive" at the right speed, and not a minute... too slow - as on the PF box set!), but also, on the fourth side of the vinyl, a brilliant session from May 1969 (20 minutes) and the rare, uncut and excellent, 7-minute "Moonhead" - recorded specially by the band for BBC TV to mark the Moon landing in July 1969! This is a great treat for fans of old rock! AN ABSOLUTE MUST! Condition: MINT / NEW, unsealed.
