Hi Doctor

This is a rare show though the quality is not overwhelming. Any chance to get an audio of one of Pink Floyds shows in Moscow, Russia in 1989 (June 3-7)?

Thanks
Thomas

Thomas -

If I had the Moscow shows, I would've posted them long ago. Unfortunately, as I have previously indicated, I do not have those shows.

However, if you do find them in your travels, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I would be happy to post them.

Thomas & Doc,

Your talking about the Moscow shows reminded me that I too didn't have it in my library. Doing some searching this morning I not only found the show but found it as a DVD.

I haven't finished downloading it yet, but it looks like a lot of work went into producing it so it should be quite good.

Enjoy,

I really appreciate the web address! However, upon downloading this particular show, I see that there are over 3 hours of video and 2 audio tracks all smashed into 1.75 GB. In other words, horrible quality. What a shame!!

Some of the audio from that blog is rather lovely, though! Check it out!

Yeah, I too had a feeling of impending doom when I saw how small the entire concert was compressed to.

Oh well, at least it is 'something' & can hold a spot in the library until (hopefully) something better can come along.

As to the rest of the blog, yes it is a good one. If you get a chance check out some Big Head Todd & The Monsters concerts. They haven't had a whole lot of commercial success but have a great sound & a very good show most every time.
