  1. Pink Floyd: 08Apr75 Vancouver, British Columbia
    Opening Night of the 1975 North American Tour

    Man of Leisure Music (MoLM)
    Issued February, 2004
    SHN format
    Expands to three [3] discs

    Speed corrected and remastered from tapes given
    to Danalog by Roy in Canada from what we believe
    with reasonable certainty to be second generation.

    Essentially, the taper gave our source, Roy, a copy of
    the original tapes some time ago. Recently, Roy
    contacted MoLM and asked if Danalog would be interested
    in having a shot at fixing them up and putting them
    on disc. Of course we were interested! The old
    Maxells were sent to Danalog in sunny Arizona, and
    now you get to enjoy the results.

    While there is still a fair amount of tape hiss, the
    overall sound quality of this roio is excellent.

    Man of Leisure Music did extensive comparisons with
    The Azimuth Coordinator, part 1 08Apr75:

    < both are taken from the same root source
    < unknown which is lower gen
    < AzCo pt 1 actually runs just a bit fast
    < AzCo pt 1 may have been "dolby-ized" thus muffling it
    < MoLM version has more audience between tracks
    < MoLM version much fuller sound but more tape hiss
    -- tape hiss across too broad a spectrum to defeat

    DISC ONE:

    1.) Raving and Drooling
    2.) You Gotta Be Crazy
    3.) Shine On You Crazy Diamond 1-5
    4.) Have a Cigar
    5.) Shine on You Crazy Diamond 6-9

    DISC TWO:

    Dark Side of the Moon
    (10 tracks)

    DISC THREE:

    Echoes (encore)
