Pink Floyd: The Wall, 09Aug80

Part of THE DEFINITIVE WALL SERIES re-released
by Man of Leisure Music (MoLM) December 21, 2001.

Other dates in the series include 08Feb 80,
25Feb80, 27Feb80, 18Feb81, 19Feb81 and 16Jun81.

Performed live at London's Earls Court, 09Aug80
Last night of the concert series that ran from
04Aug80 to 09Aug80. Apparently, the first set
is from the 8th, but I've not confirmed that.

This is actually the audio soundtrack from the
professionally shot video from the same date.

This is truly a "must have" for serious Pink Floyd
collectors, because this roio is the only 'soundboard'
roio recording in circulation at present.

Since it is not a very low generation source, there
are still a number of flaws in the recording, perhaps
most annoying of which is the "hum" in the recording
at the start of the second set. Despite its draw-
backs, this is still a wonderful recording to have.

We here at MoLM truly hope you enjoy this roio as
much as we have.
