HRV & FRP




That about wraps things up for Free Range Pigs and Harvested. There is one last thing that I discovered in the archives. I know that "HRV CDR 007 BBC Archives 1970-1971" contains 2 concerts. The 1971 concert was given a Rev A on 26Dec07. The 1970 concert apparently has not been given a Rev A. The official Harvested web site gives the .md5 for the original version of the 1970 concert. However, there is no .md5 for the 1971 concert. To be conservative, the version of HRV CDR 007 that I shared below (scroll down) was the original version from 2001. If you feel like living on the edge, I have gone ahead & uploaded the Rev A of the 1971 concert here.

As always, if anyone has any further releases or updates that I have not shared below, please feel free to leave a comment. These releases have set the standard. They are the foundation for any serious Pink Floyd collection. It is important that they should be shared.

Dear Dr. F, a big thank you for all you share with us. You're the rock guru! :)
Best, K.

Hey, Dr. F

I can't thank you enough for posting the Floyd stuff... at last, I am able to complete my collection of Harvested boots.

By the way, if, at some point, you feel motivated to post the Harvested DVDs as well, I don't think anyone would object!

yours,
Christian

I don't see a post for Free Range Pigs 003, 004, 019, 020. Did I miss them somewhere? Also, is there a similar site like the link you have to the Harvested page?
I really like how you have these grouped together. A great way to organize them.
Thank You.

PS. Am I the only one who finds the new layout of the pf-db hard to use? I found looking up a Floyd date so easy with the "find alphabetically" option. This is gone now. I tried to look up Roger Waters The London Rehearsals, and just gave up. No idea how to find it now.

Very unfortunately, not all Free Range Pigs releases were made available to the general public. So, a few are extremely rare. I have shared all of those that I own. If you have others... I'd love to hear about it!

Others, not found here? Is that really possible? no...before this internet thingy happened I had but one Floyd boot, Ivor Wynne. And that was a dubbed copy of a friends tape. I will post a comment if I ever come across these.
Is there a list of FRP releases? Is 033 the last one? I cant make sense of the different FRP/FRP-SCS/FRP-SP groupings. Any explanation would be helpful.
Thanks Again.

The Free Range Pigs' web site is no longer available in the normal fashion. However, some old captures can still be viewed here -

This site contains a listing of the entire FRP catalog. If you compare the releases that I have shared here to those listed, you'll find that they don't match up very well. There are a few on the list that I do not have. There are a few that I have that are not on the list.

About the strange groupings - FRP/FRP-SCS and so forth - I can tell you honestly that I have no idea whatsoever. They may represent the initials of contributors. That's just a guess.

FYI, Dr. Forrester (and everyone else who might be interested), I've assembled a fairly complete spreadsheet of HRV releases, dates and features here.
