I will never tire of this album. I was pfaffing around through threads and this played once, spinning it a second time.

If you really love this record and a classic silent film I can wholeheartedly endorse this
Wish you were here repeats multiple times. Kind of syncs up occasionally in interesting ways.
I had YouTube on auto play once and it popped up. First time I have watched the film. I tried watching the movie again with the original score and turned off the sound in less than a minute. Pink Floyd way better.
 
Last week I was listening to The Wall. (I snagged from Hi Rez streaming service) And it sounded a little cloudy, and I just couldn't live with that. Saw many good reviews of the 2011 remaster. A few songs in now and I can live with this

folder(3).jpgPF Best of North Amer Tour 77_Page2.jpg
Notes:

This set is assembled to be a definitive 1977 tour album with some of the best performances
from the North American 1977 tour featuring consistent high fidelity and discreet surround sound
as heard at the original shows. We are very lucky to have all the elements of this album captured
between multiple audience recordings in such a complete way. Starting with having definitive
performances to choose from in the few audience recordings that actually have near professional
release audio quality. MSG, NY was recorded by two different people, one close to the stage and
one further back in the venue. Combining these properly lets us hear the live surround sound motion
for the guitar and keyboard soloing as it was mixed in the venue. Finally, we have a recording made
near their rear speaker stack that we can use to isolate the rear channel of their quad fx reel from.

Audio tools now exist to allow us to sync together these multiple analog audio sources with perfection
to the micro level while keeping the audio unharmed to achieve this.

This project started life as a
Yeeshkul! discussion for a fantasy best of 1977 concert. It started to appear that all the pieces were
falling into place for a pro level concert restoration and this project is the result. The individual
shows by themselves have surprising high fidelity and discreet surround sound from combined multiple
recorders but also have various incomplete sections (like only the distant recorder rolling while the
guy in front flips a tape). This compilation gives you the complete show from all angles using all these
recordings. Not all the edits between venues are seamless but the ‘visible’ ones are smoother than the
original flaws they replace. Such as the front recorder dropping out to flip a tape in NY, a very loud
explosion from a loud firework also in NY, Dave having a rough vocal moment, and just a couple musical
moments better enough to demand the effort. In addition to the edits between venues, a few bad notes
and a missed drum fill were fixed as well
