Pink Floyd/Switzerland 11.22.1970

This is the second release of the Montreux concert, following the November 21, 1970 Montreux performance definitive album “TOO LATE FOR MIND EXPANDING” released by Fan’s main label “Harvested”. This time it is the highest sound quality decision board of the second day performance in Montreux the next day. The band appeared on stage at 2:30 pm that day, and the band’s performance was titled “TOO EARLY FOR A GIG.” It is a well-known fact that the recording of these two days was recorded by a person named Victor using a Uher 4200 and Sennheiser MD-421 with ultra-high quality microphone recording comparable to soundboard recording (or better?). “TOO LATE FOR MIND EXPANDING” included the restored version of Victor’s “RAW MASTER” that appeared in 2009, creating the best first day live album, but this album combines three existing sound sources, The best version of the second day is recorded for 2 hours and 19 minutes. Disc 1, from Astronomy Domine to Atom Heart Mother, contains the highest quality take recorded by Victor, released in 1995 as “Smoking Blues”. The sound quality is absolutely perfect and cannot be beat. This is said to be the 1st Gen or 2nd Gen of the master, but the sound quality has been improved not only by pitch adjustment but also by remastering, and the left and right balance has also been adjusted, making it much brighter than the original sound. It gives the impression of being lashed up. Distortion in the loud part of the right channel has also been reduced. From Embryo to A Saucerful Of Secrets is recorded from a diff master by a different recording person than Victor. This is a sound source commonly known as “Reeling On Pink Floyd – Tape 24”, and is a take copied directly from the master reel to DAT. The freshness of the sound is perfect, even though it includes hiss noise, and although it is not as high quality as the Victor sound source that gives the illusion that it is an official version, it is a fairly high level recording for this era, and it is satisfying to listen to, including the overall stability. is. The pitch has also been adjusted accurately, and the overall sound image has been properly adjusted. As Harvested also announced, the weak point of this sound source is hiss noise, but by reducing the hiss, the timbre itself of the musical sound changes, so we also alleviated the obvious analog noise, but , I left the hiss as is. There is no doubt that this is currently the best version. The last Interstellar Overdrive is a take of Victor’s “RAW TRANSFER” that appeared in 2009. There is also a hiss noise peculiar to tape, but you can enjoy a spectacular live performance with crystal clear sound. The last 5 minutes were missing in the Victor version, so this part was connected with “Reeling Tape 24”, realizing a complete 15-minute recording of the same song.
