Nick Mason’s Saugerful of Secrets Nick Mason/Denmark 2022

Four years after its formation, the early Floyd reprint project SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS is still exciting the world. Its latest and best album has arrived. This work is recorded in “Copenhagen performance on May 16, 2022”. It is a superb audience recording. We reported the first report of the tour resumption in the masterpieces “OXFORD 2022” and “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022”, and this work is the third following it. However, this time it has been a while since the first report, so let’s first check the distance between each of them on the tour dates. UK: April 13-18 (4 shows), April 19 “OXFORD 2022”, April 20 + 22 (2 shows), April 23 “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022”, April 24-May 11 (13 shows) Continental Europe: May 14: Randers show, May 16: Copenhagen show ←★This work★ May 14-July 13 (37 shows) North America: September 22-November 1 (28 shows) This is the 2022 schedule that has been announced so far. For convenience, we have classified it as “UK edition / Continental Europe edition / North America edition”. The first two series “OXFORD 2022” and “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022” were both live albums at the beginning of the “UK edition”, but the tour then landed on mainland Europe. This work is a live album that is the “first report of the continental edition” rather than the “third tour”. Also, the quality was one of the reasons for the gap in the release. It wasn’t that it was full of bad recordings. FLOYD enthusiasts are known to have discerning ears in the rock world, and SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS has also released a series of top-class recordings. However, even if you push that, “OXFORD 2022” and “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022” were too amazing. Moreover, SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS now has official live works. It is quite difficult to make a recording that can clear the raised standards. And this work passed such standards brilliantly. In fact, the sound is a world of beautiful sound that shakes the heart. The core is extremely thick, the details are fine, and the closeness at zero distance… all the elements necessary for a great recording are there, and the sound is also excellent. The hall sound, which is inseparable from the core and rises with a sense of towering like an aura, is beautiful to the end, giving the powerful core an indescribable luster and thickness. The beauty of its symmetry is comparable to the polished official work, and yet the realism of a one-take recording even exudes elegance. It is a superb sound with “super”. Such a beautiful recording depicts the full show of the 2022 version. Frankly speaking, the set is only different from “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022” in some of the song orders, so let’s change the perspective a little this time. Speaking of Copenhagen, there was also the masterpiece “COPENHAGEN 2018: MULTICAM”, which was said to be the “masterpiece” in the early days of the activity. Comparing the evolution of projects in the same city is also a unique way to enjoy bootlegs, so let’s organize it here by comparing it with the masterpiece from four years ago. Syd Barrett era・Whistler at dawn: Lucifer Sam/Interstellar Overdrive/Astronomy Domine/Bike・Mystic: Remember A Day (★)/Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun/A Saucerful Of Secrets・Singles: Arnold Layne/Candy And A Currant Bun (★)/Vegetable Man/See Emily Play Afterwards・More: The Nile Song・Atom Heart Mother: If/Atom Heart Mother・Meddlesome: One Of These Days/Fearless/Echoes (★)・Shadows of the Clouds: Obscured By Clouds/When You’re In/Burning Bridges (★)/Childhood’s End (★) *Note: The “★” mark indicates songs that could not be heard in “COPENHAGEN 2018: MULTICAM”. “Audience recording in 2022 can be done to this extent.” This is a transcendental live album in which the sound speaks to you silently. A new masterpiece from the continental Europe edition that may even surpass the wonderful “OXFORD 2022” and “ROYAL ALBERT HALL 2022”. A superb audience recording of the “May 16, 2022 Copenhagen performance”. All the elements necessary for a great recording are present, such as the extremely thick core, the fine details, and the zero-distance closeness… and the sound is also excellent. The hall sound, which is inseparable from the core and rises with a sense of towering like an aura, is beautiful to the end, giving the powerful core an indescribable luster and thickness. The beauty of its balance is a polished official class, and yet the realism of a one-take recording even exudes elegance. This is a new masterpiece that allows you to immerse yourself in the world of early Floyd with the finest sound with “super”.
