Geetarz Comments:

This was the second of two nights at the Civic Center in Hartford, Ct. on this mini tour.

Eric Clapton's stint with Roger Waters really was a pivotal turning point in his career. His management was decidely opposed to his appearance as a "sideman", but this collaboration brought out some of EC's finest playing in over 20 years.

I received this CD set in trade years ago, apparently a tape dump onto CD, with no individual tracks.

I extracted it, did some light EQ and noise reduction. The "Pros and Cons" portion of the setlist I tracked as well as I could. Personally (and I know I'm in a minority here), I find it tedious to the extreme so I did the best I could.

It is what it is, not very listenable at times but a worthy document of this tour.

Trade CDs > EAC v 0.99 Prebeta 4 (secure) > WAV > Sound Forge 9.0 > Stuff > CDWav (Tracking) > FLAC (Level 5) > You !

No one beats Floydians for purist trading and collecting; This is my attempt to do the best I can with what I have available.

Thanks to Joil for original cover art; I have modified it to reflect the remaster.

Enjoy!
