Hi Doctor
many many thanks for all those wonderful posts. Is there any chance to get an audio from one of the Floyds 94 gigs in Moscow?

Cheers
Thomas

This is a great historical piece that sounds very good. Some of this is on a DVD that Dr. Forrester posted a few days ago, PF - 1969-10-25 - Amougies Festival Actuel.

There is much discussion on pf-db.org about this and another version put out by the crew at Harvested caled Interstellar Zappadrive. Both of these releases derive their titles from the fact that Frank Z plugged in during Interstellar Overdrive.

The two versions run at slightly different speeds, with MOB at Harvested having pitched his to match the live portion of Umma Gumma. The 'Let's Be Frank' version runs slightly slower, however it is more complete, and includes a third source taken from the radio.

The sound quality of the Harvested versin is said to be very slightly better, perhaps due to the slightly higher pitch.

Thank you for providing this version and all the other great stuff.
