backround info:
This was a very special performance by the band. This is the only known live recording of Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast but also hosts an amazing performance by the band which included them making morning tea on stage which is audible. Just like most of their earlier performances, the performance of Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast slightly differs from the album version due to some nice jamming done by the band, especially Gilmour with his delay pedal.
The rest of the show is very spacey and relaxed. A Saucerful Of Secrets is a stand out due to being such a strong performance compared to most other live 1970 renditions. In many renditions, the third part "Storm Signals" never really is a strong point of their performances but its given a good ol' heave ho in this performance with the help of Gilmour and Wright but is unexpectedly drawn to a hault by a power failure during the fourth part, "Celestial Voices". It didn't take the road crew long to quickly correct the problem but while the power was out, Wright treated the audience to a nice, accoustic and slightly up-beat version of Celestial Voices on the grand piano. He must've really hit the keys on that piano hard because it is clearly audible on the recording.
The performance ends in a massive and powerful version of Atom Heart Mother in which the band was joined on stage by an ensemble of brass and a small choir for one of very few performances they gave of the song with the "full band album version" of the song. Most live versions of the song was done by just the four band members on stage, and from memory, only eight performances of the song were played with the brass ensemble and choir which makes this recording a must for all fans.

This one sounds much better than Alan Psychedelic Christmas ... my ears appreciate it and me too, thank you.
